MGS 5 The Phantom Pain Hype

[Taa Nul]

Dear god, one week left and the wait is still killing me. o.o

#HYPE.

I recently finished a 100% run of Ground Zeroes to get ready for Phantom Pain. I'm so ridiculously excited.

 

[Taa Nul]

I havn't 100 percented it myself, BUT I finally found all those bloody XOF patches. I hear rumor that we'll get awesome stuff in TPP from transferring our Ground Zeroes saves. I know for a fact a Raiden skin is in TPP, so that's probably one of the things alongside revisiting Camp Omega.

We should get to revisit Camp Omega, and all the people we rescued will become staff in our mother base. Costumes too.

I'll laugh my head off if they let us use Hideo Kojima as a playable character. Would be a fitting send off for him.

>_> I will be consumed in this game upon release - especially MGO.

I...miss MGO.

 

[Taa Nul]

I never played the first two but the gameplay looked fun. I can't wait to play Ocelot in the new Online, though we'll have to wait a little bit 'cus Online releases later on as an update. Bit like with GTA V and it's online.

I played Ground Zeros (it was a freebie game of the month in the PSN store a while back) and I was not impressed. If anything, Ground Zeros has shown me not to waste my money on Phantom Pain.

 

[Taa Nul]

Just gonna leave this here. :3

....It's like Christmas.

The launch trailer edited by Kojima went up.

It's very bittersweet.

One thing I noticed when it was showing Big Boss's slow transformation and he ends up looking like Skullface. Skullface doesn't have ears in-game, so I think he may end up becoming what he's fighting. Reminds me of that famous quote. ''One must take care when fighting monsters, lest he become a monster himself.''

Got my key redeemed on Steam. The second that baby goes up, it's getting downloaded.

Watched the whole thing on YouTube plus The Collector's Edition "Episode 51". ...And I got to say: This game's story blows. Hard.

I'll stay spoiler free but man. That was one the greatest narrative flops since Mass Effect 3's Ending. Ugh. I don't think I'll ever respect Kojima again. What a blow hard. Quiet - Ugh. Eli - Ugh. Kaz - Ugh. Ocelot - Meh. Big Boss - Ugh. ...The list was endless of mistakes, retcons, and just plain bad writing. I can't give this game's story a worse score than 1/10.

Would not bang.

(The Gameplay was excellent though. Some of the best Stealth and Spray&Pray I've ever experienced. 10/10 for Gameplay.)

Nah. Worse. Yes... Worse. He went pure Resident Evil with that mojo right up in here. So sad. Much doge. Blgh. Lame'sauce.

 

[Isamu Baelor]

What an awful swerve. I think the last time I was this disappointed with a game was ME3. What was he thinking?

Do they harden in response to physical trauma?
