  You ever skip taking a shower for a day or two just so that the next shower you take feels even better?

    No, I do it because I’m living in the hamster wheel of capitalism and I’m very tired

  You can also trigger a fairly bizarre cutscene where your character takes a shower with one of the female characters but she keeps all her clothes on, if you cultivate a certain level of unrepentant stink.

    Ah yes because Quiet wears a lot of clothes in the first place.

    Holy crap the more I learn about MGS V the more I learn that I really need to actually put some time into it. I got it for free with my first GPU (a GTX970 a couple of months after the 3.5Gb scandal got big) and it was my first steam game. I’d never played any games of the genre (or related genres) or scope before (I’d grown up playing tons of Sid Meier and Maxis titles on disc) so the whole thing was kinda a culture shock for me

  In Death Stranding you can collect Norman Reedus’s bodily fluids and throw them at people.

    Jumping and peeing mid air is genuinely a speedrun strat for the release version of the game. It basically lets you fly.

  Kojima games have always been full of mechanics and characters that are pretty obviously direct jabs at his own player base.

  Hrm, after MGS, what does my NA playerbase look like?

  Oh, a bunch of skinny, white, emo nerds with massive insecurity about basically everything in their lives?

  Perfect, that’s the new main character, and he gets a shonen character arc.

  … MGS4 legitimately got me to get a portable cigarette butt container, and then also helped me to quit smoking.

    What is a “portable cigarette butt container”?

    source

    • sp3ctr4l@lemmy.dbzer0.com ⁨23⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

      Its an airtight container that you can fit in a semi-large pocket, which works as an ashtray, and you put cigarette butts in it.

      In Japan, littering is extremely frowned upon, there are basically no public ashtrays, it is pretty common for smokers to stash their butts in these containers and then empty them out later.

      Very different from the norm in much of the rest of the world where people just litter cig butts everywhere, toss them into garbage cans and start fires.

      Here’s a cheap one on amazon.

      A analogue film container was my go for this use.

  What stats go down? Afaik the only thing being dirty really does other than cover you in blood is make you smell, which can give away your position to enemies. But just getting dirty doesn’t make you smell, you have to crawl through something smelly and your stench will be indicated by flies buzzing around you (and Ocelot yelling you that you stink).

    I haven’t played metal gear but in Skyrim stealth is a stat and it seems like this makes it go down

  Metal Gear is telling you to wash your dirty arse.

  I love MGS5

  Nonlethal is just as easy as lethal. There’s a morality system that goes with it.

  If you kill too many people and don’t wash off their blood then you become permanently soaked in blood, and Snake grows a little devil horn.

    never wash away the blood

    True irl too. Tried once, there’s even more blood once you get past the skin.

      That sounds like a skill issue. Have you considered replacing your flesh the strength and certainty of steel? We have oil margaritas!

  Seems like Metal Gear Solid is the gamer version of Disney’s Snow White, because that girl motivated me so much to clean my room when I was a kid. Her and Mary Poppins. And so some extent, Pippi Longstocking too.
