Anyone else think it was a little weird when skull face pointed directly at the camera and said "Remember the Alamo" and nobody reacted to it? Not sure what Kojima was going with that

During my gameplay, this scene was the moment I knew he wasn't a real Snake; a real Snake wouldn't sit quietly during an exposition dump without parroting the last thing they said back as a question

I don't agree with you overall but I see your point. If every game that attempted to be like MGS was as good at MGS it wouldn't be a problem, but outside if it there are like 5 vidya tops that deliver on it. The shit that I hate the most is everyone emulating dark souls by scattering vague text throughout the game so dweeb loremasters can advertise their games on YouTube for years by explaining what's happening.

There's still a lot of good shit out there though, it just mostly lies in the AA budget level. Remnant 1 and 2 were both a lot of fun, and my friends and I have had a good time with Outlast Trials.

Hideo Kojima had two of his vertebrae surgically removed so his could suck his own peepee.

MGS5 is more game than MGS1 or 2.

All of them have long convoluted cut scenes but 4 and 5 Kojima cranked them up to 11.

MGS5 cutscenes are egregious but the gameplay is still kino. Combat is better than ever but stealth is still a big part of the game. There's so many ways to infiltrate enemies too. There's never just one right way or best way to accomplish a mission.

Replay mgs and tell me its not a movie being made by a japanese man high on cocaine.

MGS5 was borderline incoherent narratively, but the gameplay itself was leagues better than the rest. MGS 1-4 were straight up movies interspersed with gameplay. At times you were playing for literally a couple of minutes in between several half hour long cutscenes.

Bideo gaymes as art crowd took over

I didn't really like mgs3 but don't feel like why.

Besides the annoyance of "no radar because it's the 1960s ussr BUT HERE'S SOME JAPANESE SNACKFOOD", i couldn't remember any of the names of where to go or who to see

No matter how you feel about videogamesunkey, his thing on the mgs franchise was funny

Volgin says this in MGS3 before firing the nuke at the research facility. The nuke was named after Davy Crockett, who died at the Alamo. I haven't played MGSV since it launched, so I don't remember if this is before or after the origin of XOF was revealed. Ocelot was present when Volgin launched the nuke. It's likely that ocelot reported the event with Volgin to Zero, who was responsible for the formation of XOF. The burning man is somehow supposed to be Volgin, which is probably my least favorite detail in the MGS series, and he appears immediately after Skullface says it.

That's the best I got. It is weird.

He's referencing Colonel Volgin from MGS3 because he was there for that mission in secret. Skull Face is alluding to how he was following Snake around as his shadow and was there for the death of The Boss same as Snake and Major 0.

Volgin said it because he was firing a Davy Crockett nuclear missile launcher

The memes from that shit were kino
