Well, that aligns with the vibes I was getting. Which was, like, "normal" kinda vibes.

I'm not hugely experienced with metal gear solid games but the intro seemed very not a metal gear solid game

that's not a criticism that's just an observation

the intro to MGS games is usually a 30 minute movie and then it kinda drops you into the action

this one was a big scripted event and stuff but it managed to be very tense and scary

Now I'm just pacing around my room imagining Fire Volgin utterly annihilating people, police, and city block after city block in Manhattan with his unthinkably destructive attacks.

I'm having a blast. I extracted some dude I was supposed to murder instead of kill him, but I guess he has to be interrogated or something. I'm really bad at stealth using the tranquilizer pistol so I'm kinda just beating the poo poo out of everyone with the CQC instead.

i was an artisan with the tranq pistol in GZ but i couldn't hit a loving melon from 5 feet with the pistol's ironsights in the prologue, so.

if you have your gun out on a guy, even if theyre facing you as long as their guard is down and youre fairly close, you stick them up. super useful

I traded a dude some platinum money in the MMORPG Everquest 2 and he gave me his copy of MGS V that he got from his new video card. He said he had no interest in playing it.

That's my story about how I got the greatest video game ever created.

I just found some crazed Motherbase soldier from before the attack running around in Afghanistan. He knocked my rear end out with a single hit and couldn't be hurt. What're they feeding those guys.

No he's Troy Baker in this one. I'm not sure who he is played by in the Solid Snake games but he's much older and gravely sounding and then in 3 he's like 19 so he has a different younger va.

He's spent the last twenty years watching spaghetti westerns.

I'm not sure really. He had a very neutral accent in 3 despite being American born but Russian raised. I'm willing to bet he has a tape where he says where he's been since the last game that might try to explain his shift
