>>56231I loved 3 story the most
I enjoyed the overall game design of 2 the most
and I love 4 probably because of the heavy fan-service even if there are a lot of things I could nit pick about the story and certain aspects of the game play and game design.
Oddly enough I didn't really like 5 as much as all the others even if it probably has the best controls and many really well done mechantics.
It's just the game world is kinda boring and the story was kind of a wet fart in a lot of ways to me. Also didn't enjoy about the base thing, recruitment, or any of the other time sink stuff that they tacked on and took away from the core of the game. I only bothered with it to unlock equipment that I wanted and to debuff enemy units. I think if they made the game more like Zeros only bigger or with several locations, and kept the story really tight I would have been happy as can be even if it wouldn't be as open world. Honistly, MGS didn't really need to be open world to be at it's best.
Which is why I like MGS2's really tight well polished level design so much, and honestly prefer zeros over 5 when I want to replay MGS with the most modem controls.
I mean the controls and many of the mechanics are better in 5, but not so much better that they overcome all of it's failings. So the shorter but far tighter game play without all the immersion breaking busy work is just a better overall experience to me.
I haven't played portable ops, metal gear acid, or Revengeance.
Though Revengeance is something I do plan to play eventually.
I am too lazy to emulate the PSP games, which probably don't control as well as I would like anyway.
While the gameplay of Acid is somewhat interesting in that it is so different from anything else in the franchise but, the story is shit and isn't even cannon. So odds are even if I got my hands on it, I would play it for a few hours then put it down once the novelty wore off.
I have no intention of playing Metal Gear Survive. The sooner I forget that pile of shit exist the better. Literally rather play a MGS themed pachinko game then that shit.
