So it was Kojima's fault that it was incomplete

>People are just now realizing he was always a hack.

it feels like Kojima always wanted to be some kind of "lynchian libtard movie/game" and now he has the money and support to do it

>>714881548
He made good games (with a good team). But in MGSV I bet that he fucked real hard with the budget

>>714881472 (OP)
It was Konamis fault and no one elses. Kojima is retarded but if he delivered the 100 mission game it would have sold even more copies. Ground Zeros was a tech demo they scammed 40$ out of hundreds of thousands. Phantom Pain made over 200m profit, yes PROFIT, on an 80m budget. They weren't losing money. They lost money when they fired their golden boy and now have to recreate his games for scraps because they have no good directors left.

I'm not even a.Kojima fan I think he's retarded btw, but you can't deny he makes money. DS1 and 2 ars pure slop he's peddling to redditors and arthouse wannabes for 60$+ tax and tip and he's just raking in money.

>>714882328
He's one of the few people still making high budget games in the "cool guys doing cool things" genre

>>714882328
MGSV had a flawed design from the start. It shouldn't have been open world.

>>714881472 (OP)
It needed a couple more years but Konami said no. Look at Death Stranding's success and that's what they could have had.

>>714881472 (OP)
Why does nobody point the finger at Kojima for making the biggest piece of trash ever made, MGS V? He was literally crying on Twitter 4 months before it released that he couldn't make it as good as Red Dead Redemption 2, another empty open world slop boring game.

>>714882482
Death Stranding cost like 200 million dollars. Thats 120 million dollars more than MGSV, while being a much shittier game.

>>714882429
it was just half baked because it was rushed and incomplete. It would have been perfect if they had the live battlefields from MGS 4. It may be possible yet if there were a dedicated group to develop injections to hook the AI code in the program.

>>714882419
>cool things
>fetch quests
come on now

>>714882693
Open world games need tons of work and competent people in order to not be "empty". I dont know how Kojima would to that.

>>714882419
I agree it was a cool idea and should have been left to him. The plot twists were enjoyable the difficulty spikes felt good and real, especially when they adapted to your weapons.

>>714882429

The open world makes this game. The freedom to traverse and open world collectables/ missions were a very fun part of the game. Even further back MGS games had the inklings of open world idealogy attached to them, but he only recently got the full technology.

>>714883147
Ground Zeroes had a more interesting map, while being much smaller. TPP should've had smaller maps around Afghanistan and that african shithole.

When you consider that this was the first MGS game released after Kojima left, I would think it was Konami's fault that it was released unfinished.

>>714883452
Survive wasn't bad as people say it was lol they just wanted to worship Kojima

>>714882429
Actually it was the complete opposite, it was open-zone with an intermittent hub area, it should've been completely open-world, with transitions between flying to mission area, motherbase, etc.. being completely seamless

>>714883640
Just play Arma 3 at this point

>>714883452
this game was complete with a full story with multiple endings and even endgame bosses, plus online with multiple modes, and all this despite being a budget game sold at 39 dollars at launch

>>714883707
why would I want to play a game that isn't metal gear solid?

>>714882909
The setup's already there for insurgents clashing with the soviets

>>714882429
This so much. No matter how many missions the game wouldn't have been good because open world just doesn't fit mgs. They just should've gone the facility route like in gz. Multiple facilities or whatever would've worked great with tpp.

>>714883452
I enjoyed this game. Not enough to REALLY get into the multiplayer, but I completed the single-player story and joined a few lobbies. I feel most people who hate it are just band wagoning and haven't actually played it.

>>714883829
because you want metal gear solid to be like arma

>>714882429
Its because retards actually praised Peace Walker. Who actually liked this mission based trash dude? Come on

>>714883841
Yeah, but you never see a mujahedin fighter in game.
>>714884009
Chapter 2 felt cheaped out monster hunter with the copy and paste mission with more difficulty added. Kojumbo did that in PW and it SUCKED.

>>714884184
I really dislike Peace Walker. My favorite Metal Gear games are 2 and 3.

>>714884184
>>714884323
Peace Walker is my favorite MGS game....

>>714883452
>hehehe retarded Konami making zombie games cringe
>wtf le zombies in mgs5 this is kino, only Kojima could think of this

Kill all kojimdrones

>>714885227
Damn... Did you play coop?

>>714881472 (OP)
You see, it was necessary to hire some hollywood celebrity with the most generic and boring voice to voice Snake, no matter the cost. Whoops, not enough money to finish the game.

>>714885547
No I just really enjoyed its mechanics, level design, and bosses.

>>714885819
How the fuck did you enjoy the bosses? They were just giant bullet sponges.

>>714886086
I don't like farming but I also don't think you really beat the game. You have to use different tools and tactics to get the specific things you need to finish building zeke to 100%. Just calling them sponges (they are) implies you just do damage to them blindly until they die.

>>714886086
>How the fuck did you enjoy the bosses?
They are all about dodging their attacks and shooting rockets at them. How is that not enjoyable?
>They were just giant bullet sponges
I didn't mind that because I enjoy Monster Hunter games.
