I feel for those that were expecting a story and/or plot in line with the previous entries. Personally I never really cared much for the MGS storylines so what I got with MGSV was a game with exceptional gameplay and I absolutely loved it.
Thank you :D
I don't see the need for the title change. It wasn't hyperbolic or click-baity. MGSV really is one of the most disappointing games ever made.
Thinking it over some more , a game with gameplay that great shouldn't count as one of the most disappointing games ever. But story wise etc MGSV is the most wasted potential in the series.I don't see the need for the title change. It wasn't hyperbolic or click-baity. MGSV really is one of the most disappointing games ever made.
I'm still mad they never did an Xbox One X patch. Going back to play it looks.. so, so bad.
You forget Konami stepped in and prevented him from finishing his game.Very disappointed by lackluster ending, plot holes,... And the fact you could have controlled a metal gear on the battlefield but it got canceled for balance reasons....Kojima just why?
I thought he was fine in MGS4. Never liked him in MGS3, and Peace Walker was a straight up joke. Hayter should never have voiced Big Boss.
Kiefer did a fine job. The few lines he does speak are far more impactful then the entirety of Hayter's long winded run in PW.
MGS5 is evidence that kojimas head is so far up his own ass when it comes to story telling and he was and probably still is surrounded by yes men that enable him.
The no camera cut storytelling that basically forced horrible exposition and no development of anyone outside snakes view and the absolute nothing almost mute 'character' that was venom snake through the whole goddamn game for the sake of a twist people guessed from the first damn trailer where horrible decisions. Don't feed me he didn't get to finish the game. The man had 7 years and an almost unlimited budget and that was the story he wanted to tell?
It's such a shame that the best gameplay he designed was wrapped around such a shitty lifeless open world shell and narrative
Where is this 7 years and unlimited budget coming from?
The cassette tapes give you all the character development of the cast plus more.
It's crazy how much fun I had with this game yet how much I felt was missing.
FFXV has a better story than MGSV... and that is saying something.Nowhere near the same league of disappointment that Final Fantasy XV was.
Because Konami dropped him because he's full of himself? I can't wait for Death Stranding to come out purely for the hyperbolic takes that are going to come out of it and Kojima's "genius" once again.You forget Konami stepped in and prevented him from finishing his game.
There's a reason he no longer works at Konami.
;)

That game is fun as fuck to play and that can't be disappointing, especially as MGS3 and 4 were disappointing as hell.
Plus it had some really good moments and I didn't have to fight the equivalent of cartoon network bosses
Isn't it more Kojima's fault for wasting so much money for so long that they had to force him to rush it?I put 180 hours into it, and platinum'd it.
I liked it, but it had issues. As for biggest waste of potential? Blame Konami.
You may not like MGS4, but calling it "incomplete" is just wrong.It's not even the most disappointing or unfinished MGS game. That was MGS4.
I'm sorry if I come off harsh, I just don't think I've ever turned on a game as hard as this one. That jeep ride broke me and it was all downhill from there.

Exactly.Yeah. For all its flaws and narrative gaps, FFXV at least stuck the landing. MGSV didn't even stay in the damn stadium.
