Summary

Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain is the sequel to Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes and a prequel to the original Metal Gear. The game has a complex story with long cut-scene sequences, but there are fewer and they are shorter compared to earlier Metal Gear Solid titles. Most of the gameplay mechanics introduced in Ground Zeroes are carried over: it is still an action game and stealth oriented but replaces the linear corridor design from most earlier titles with large open world environments that offer the player unrestricted freedom for the approach. The world has now a real-time day and night cycle and various weather effects that influence enemy behaviour, visibility and sound. Sabotaging or destroying certain structures can also influence other parts of the map.

Despite heavily criticised I had a blast with this title. I really enjoyed the storyline, cinematic, missions and improving the mother base and finding new soldiers.

Playing on: Playstation 5
Version: Playstation 4
Edition: Digital

Made it about 90 minutes. Not for me. I want to play a game & not just watch glorified cut scenes. Boring, bland, & overrated. I'm getting really sick of the Hideo hounds LOVING every single thing that he releases. The only one in the world who gets that level of loyalty from me is Jesus.

Anyway, if you like this game, great but man, I am not into this. Rinse & repeat & an unbelievably weird & wonky story. On a positive note, good visuals (especially for its age) & the concept is ambitious.

Final verdict: Don't touch it

Im Afraid its Been Nine Years.

Unfortunately The game is Unfinished, Its Incredible how they made a Game like this in 2015, The Graphics, The Gameplay, The Direction, Even the Story, its Unmatched.

The Gameplay Is Where Phantom pain Truly Shines. The freedom it offers, How smooth The Controls are, you can play the mission as the way You like. Using Stealth, Push in Aggressively With quick movement With Your "Buddy" a Partner In fight, (D-Dog, Quiet). Literally any style you'd like you can play with.

Visually, The Game is stunning, The Details in the Map, How the lighting is Realistic Despite its a Game from 2015 The Graphics in this game can compete With recent games. THE FOX ENGINE has one of the best opitimized Game, Truly Strenuous Work, Thanks Kojima.

I didn't play the previous game so i didn't get to the story that much but it was good despite how the messy the chapter 2 is, The Characters Were Amazing The most part I loved in The story.

ITS A SHAME THEY DO NOT MAKE GAMES LIKE THIS ANYMORE.
