The only thing I knew about castlevania came from the AVGN videos and he only talked about the classics. So I knew Simons quest sucked but that's about it

When I fought Sahelanthropus he stayed way off the distance and made no move to approach me at all so the whole fight was just me firing rockets at him while dodging attacks I could see coming from like 2 miles away and I was super underwhelmed. I had no idea it was an AI fuckup or whatever until someone posted a video of their fight here and I was like wtf

I had a really sick moment with that fight where it shot down Pequod but instead of hitting the ground the chopper spun directly into sahelanthropus and knocked it over. It was insane

im playing peace walker and yea these boss fights are rough but its pretty cool to cqc a bunch of people so a tank runs them over and capture the tank with no "kills"

The weird thing about PW is how annoying it is to capture bosses compared to how easy it is to destroy it. I wish that aspect was a little more fun, because just wasting a parade of dudes so the commander pops out is so annoying

I was liking PW a good bit and then I did a coop mission and loved it. Metal Gear works surprisingly well for coop stealth and it's fun when you or your friend get seen and now you have to go into badass Black Ops kill everybody mode and 4 snakes pull out ARs and grenade launchers and start annihilating the enemy base

*dons flamesuit* Pequod is the name of the copter not the pilot.

Pequod is the pilot.

FactsAreUseless
Feb 16, 2011

Pequod was the callsign for some of Diamond Dogs' helicopter pilots during the 1980s. From what can be seen, it is the designated codename for the chopper pilot responsible for personally assisting Venom Snake, whether it be simple transportation or dispatching assistance as part of the Support Unit, although Pequod pilots have also assisted other Combat Unit members as well.

The V in Metal Gear Solid V isn't actually a Roman numeral for 5, it's an initial for Venom. There is no MGS5.
