If the gameplay of Death Stranding is anything on the level of MGSV I'll buy it immediately.

MGSV felt so good to play

I hated it tbh, it's way too loving easy to avoid being seen no matter the context. Its basically not a stealth game

Idk if you turn off the reflex mode I thought it was fairly easy to get spotted since there are often a lot of different sightlines. Of course ddog and quiet are both op and make things a lot easier too.

I played with no UI or reflex or partners and would try to No Traces missions and it's a really good stealthgame

The moment i realized i had to stay in cover that was usable only in the prone position, was the moment I knew mgsv was the greatest stealth game ever created.

3 is a game in which bad guys can walk on your Face if your camouflage is strong enough and you can instantly swap camouflage 20 times in 10 seconds out in the field, all of these outfits and somehow beating inside your Fannypack

okay so there's two answers to this, yes and no (bear with me i'm actually serious)

you are matchmade into squads of 3; if you try to break off from this you are at a massive disadvantage and you will be slaughtered. so no

but i have not talked to a single person i've played with and been able to ping and coordinate effectively with its smart pings and a little creativity, and had a loving blast doing so, so extremely yes

in conclusion, apex legends is a land of contrasts,

MgSv and 3 both explore stealth spaces, but V is the culmination of that. I think it's the 1st or second mission in Africa where it drops you off in a spot that looks ripped right out the intro mgs3 level. Then you climb a hill and it'd the rest of the world. Was just a perfect representation of where the series went.

I dont remember the part of John Wick where I spent hours wishing I didnt have to watch him walk and extra few blocks and then wait for a cab to pick up in real time followed by him going back to the same place he just was, fully repopulated with gaurds that he still wasnt going to shoot.

MGSV was like all the parts of stealth games I dont like mixed with all the parts of open world games I dont like with an abysmal story.

I finished RE2 Standard in 1:58, first time I've ever speed run an RE game! It's amazing how fast you can get through when you know what you need and skip the other stuff.

i just looked at the old website for the 2003 3d platformer vexx and found out they wrote entire fake vexx blogs where vexx in-character rants about how he hates fps games, wants to date lara croft and asks his manager if leonard nimoy has ever acted in a porn movie

quote:

"Think about it. You got the gauntlets, the doublet-thingy, whatever you call it, the big shoes, the p--"

"Go ahead, Fleemish, say it: 'the pointy ears'."

"Vexx, I got one word for you: Nimoy."

"Those weren't his real ears, you rear end!"

"Exactly my point, oh agitated one. Do you know how many fraggin' ears they sold? They say Nimoy made enough to build a pointy ear-shaped swimming pool."

"I heard he did a porno. You ever hear that?"

Pour one out for the fallen edgy characters of the Emotion Engine Era. Vexx, Haven Call of the King, RTX Red Rock, not Metal Arms Glitch in the System because that was actually a good game and this is a sarcastic pour.

I just remember in retrospect probably extending the amount of time it would take to beat later levels in Metal Arms because I would first almost always exclusively use the "Jack-In" feature to take over enemy robots instead of using any of the other weapons you got in the game.

I don't know how it's possible to say it's too easy to avoid being spotted in MGSV unless you have all the handicaps turned on and take 2 hours to clear each mission by crawling.

Please don't sarcastic pour over Armed and Dangerous, and I'm not talking the weird Israeli adventure game.

Some of those guys came back like Ty but I will go down saying Sphinx was the best of them.

Well God Eater 3 is post apocalypse so I'd say all of them. And I'm sure he's definitely not going to be, if not the final boss, a major antagonist after his ~mysterious introduction~.

Snake-fighting, it's very scary fighting snake.
Very dangerous so is very po-popular,
At midnight everybody dancing on street
Here, everyone with same identity, down their sake, sake is
Very strong, like vodka, very dangerous, so everyone get a rolled
Up newspaper, set it on fire, and put it in between

Snake-fighting life

Strong food answering drink at midnight

Double scar, multi-colored hair, thin detailed beard, red hair that's not the same color as beard, raven eyes, high collar, what appears to be giant goggles... I'm getting conflicting feelings about this dude but I bet he's the best character in the game and whenever he's not on screen people are like "where's double-scar?"

My second match some dude was trying his hardest to corral me and the other newbie and being real cool amd I ended up disconnecting and not being able to get back into the game. I felt so bad. I wanted to friend him and apologize but I guess you can't view people you've played with before ala Overwatch?
