>>713624369 (OP)>turns joke character into an actually relevant player in the story for no reason other than abhorrent pandering >said characters entire humor is just shitting himself until he randomly takes off his mask where hes suddenly gigachad and never shits himself again>all of this just so kojima could give meryl an ending in the most contrived way probably imaginable this sticks out to me whenever i think about this game. i get he was trying to wrap up everything, but, seriously, what the fuck?
also the shooter gameplay fucking sucks, wouldve been a way better game if it focused more on pure-stealth. i say that only because they truly had a great feel for the stealth level design in this game and it's annoying that there isnt more of it.
the bossfights are also somehow less inspired then MGS3 which is downright sad.
all in all its a mostly good game but "masterpiece" is ridiculous
