Metal Gear Solid 5.

How can you just ditch your main character’s voice actor? As a Metal Gear completionist, how do I even play this traditionally linear game now that it’s open world and packed with repetitive side missions? Why am I building a strut base and hiring staff that I magically airlift to a chopper out on the battlefield? Overall a disappointment, not because of bad graphics or bad controls or bad gameplay, just a hodgepodge of content that was too much of a departure from the format of the first 4 linear games. I never finished it and probably never will. I know Konami threw multiple wrenches in Kojima’s gears during development but I feel the overall direction was still flawed from the onset. Open World was just so popular at that time and maybe they forced it on Kojima, who knows. I know he didn’t want to make a 5th game anyway so I’m gonna just pretend it never happened and be happy with the first 4 and the PSP titles.
