Somehow manages to be an amazing game while also managing to be a soul crushing letdown for any MGS fan. While technically excellent in almost every way, this is not a game for those looking for an impressive narrative, or even a bearable conclusion to an amazing series made famous based on its ability to tell a fascinating story, even if said story is notoriously convoluted. Though it has its moments when you can tell there had at one point been a grand vision in place, this is an unfinished product through and through, and will likely be the last sliver of genuine promise for this series going forward for obvious reasons to anyone who knows the controversy behind the scenes. I love this game, while also lamenting what it could have been. But I've also made my peace with what it is, and that thing is still something that I've lovingly given a great deal of my time to.
