I will add that the game’s story and world really do shine in the smaller moments. Additionally, the game is glacially long and the major story moments are often too spread out to get meaningfully invested in. When the game tries to make big twists and plot developments happen, it stumbles and doesn’t execute what it feels like the developers were going for. Overall, the game feels like a small part in a very large story, which I’ve tried my best to understand, but can’t seem to work it out enough to appreciate this game fully. I won’t say it’s awful, but it definitely feels like there were some internal troubles at Konami that lead to the story being pretty inconclusive. All I’ll say is that the plot is serviceable even if pretty convoluted, and the characters are decent. TLDR: the gameplay is very likely the best stealth-action gameplay ever in a video game, easy 5/5.Īlright, so I find it hard to really review the story of this game, as I haven’t played any of the previous games. There are dozens of ways you can solve each encounter, and I’ve only scratched the surface. You can work out distractions to separate the trucks they’re being moved in, or to move the guards away from where they’re being held. If you’re trying to rescue the aforementioned prisoners moving between outposts, you can choose to rescue one or both of them at either outpost, or in transit between them. This is where the genius of the game comes into play, as you’re able to creatively figure out solutions to problems. Near the end of the game, you’re given very simple objectives, such as to assassinate a person before they leave a certain area, or to rescue prisoners as they’re moved between outposts. As the game progresses, your objectives become more obscure, and less guided. The missions start off fairly simple and linear, as you’re still getting used to how the systems of the game work, and have relatively few tools available to you. The mission design wonderfully compliments the gameplay. It truly is phenomenal to play, and never gets boring across the entire main story. This sounds like it could feel random or unsatisfying, but it never does, and you’re encouraged to play closer to what a stealthy soldier sneaking through a base would actually probably be like, rather than just learn the systems of the video game and work past them accordingly. You usually aren’t sure exactly how camouflaged you are from enemies. When someone catches a glimpse of you, it’s often very difficult to tell if they’ll trust their vision and go check out what they saw, or rather forget about it and go back to their routine. Sometimes an explosion will cause every enemy in an outpost to go running guns-blazing to its position sometimes they’ll take cover and prepare for a firefight sometimes they’ll send a couple of men to check it out while the rest defend a prisoner. Meaning, you’re never truly able to predict exactly how enemies will respond to a certain input from the player. The stealth is finely tuned so that many of the systems that underpin the gameplay are opaque. You’re given an overwhelming amount of choice in most encounters, and are given an insane number of unique tools to complete your objectives. I need to start this review with what is undoubtedly the crowning achievement of this game: the stealth gameplay. I played the 31 main missions, as well as a large number of side-ops. I want to preface this by saying that I have never played a previous Metal Gear game, although I’m a huge fan of stealth games in general.
