Why is MGSV so dark and void of the charm and silliness of the previous games?

the entire franchise is nonsensical faggot shit

>>719680885 (OP)
Times change.

>>719680885 (OP)
Because kojima wanted to take an 80 million dollar shit at konamis expense

A little kid steals a mech. A crispy zorro has a stare off with snake on a car ride for 20 minutes. Ocelot is a drama queen. There's octacon again.
I honestly can't tell a difference between this and the earlier games.

At least 1 and 3 were entertaining.

It's a meme series made by a westaboo, star fucker wannabe Hollywood director hack.

because you're playing as his impersonator, who's not autistic like BB

>At least 1 and 3 were entertaining.
Agreed.
Forgot to say V reminded me a lot of 2 tonally.

No codec conversations. It's impossibly stupid that they weren't included.

>>719681809
They were pace-breaking and cheesy as hell. Removing them spared everyone involved 10 hours of worthless exposition dumps and lame pop-culture references.

You say this yet Ground Zeroes is 10 times more dark and void and people keep considering it the second coming of Christ

That’s because they like the gameplay and level design.

Fukushima not there to slap Kojima

>>719681879
Bro 90% of the unique codec calls were player prompt and not story related. At least learn the fucking series before you shitpost

>>719680885 (OP)
I assume kojima was getting sick and tired of making metal gear games

>>719680885 (OP)
no it isn't

>>719680885 (OP)
>No David Hayter
>Venom Snake
Simple as.

Are you for real? That’s just off the top of my head.

It has its moments but it still takes itself much more seriously than all the other games. Its not even a bad thing thoughbeit

>>719680885 (OP)
It had plenty of silly, light and comedic moments. The over all situation was more far-reaching, chaotic and dire for multiple individuals involved though.
A whole PMC rebuilding after a takedown plot, dealing with other PMCs, former allies, etc. Quite different from a small, elite team squaring off against another and in many cases having no prior encounter.
Snake and Raiden weren't previously one-upped by most people they took down in the games, although once you get to MGS4 there is history with some enemies and things got darker as a result.

anime posters around, really any of the box mechanics like sliding, d horse shitting, having a half-naked woman in a cage for ogling purposes is hilarious. capturing animals.

it is the darkest in the series (and best) but its not devoid of charm, certainly.

>>719680885 (OP)
because its about mental illness.
