I mean, if you're a successful actress and you go out of the house in a skirt and without underwear, knowing that paparazzi are just waiting for opportunities like this and that it has happened many times before, then there's really nobody you can blame for it but yourself.
More survival crafting games should have giant laser golems, so I'm not seeing a downside there.

Apparently all my portable gaming systems have decided to fail me at once. 3DS only works when it's plugged in (probably a battery issue?), Vita is dead entirely (probably a battery issue?) and Switch is getting joycon drift. :argh:

Not tellin her to stop posting about it entirely or anything, just that hitting edit would be more considerate. :shrug:

MGS4 is a game that has a lot of heart in it but then absolutely no execution.

MGS2 is one of my favorite games ever, and it was made to not have a follow up so... whoops.

At least it did give us Rising.

I think the gameplay was a step back from MGS3, since MGS3's survival mechanics were so interesting (even if on a technical level, MGS4 plays more smoothly) and that a lot of the half-baked mechanics do a disservice by being so unfinished. For example, befriending soldiers in act 1 and 2.

It's in 2 parts so it's not just to give one act an identity of it's own but then it doesn't appear again after that so it doesn't really develop to be more complex and interesting. It feels like it was supposed to have some kind of impact on something, but then it just doesn't.

Act 4 and 5 have some pretty good parts in them, but I think 4 has terrible boss fights.

Story wise, making it all about big boss was a mistake.

Yeah, Big Boss is my least favorite aspect of any Metal Gear outside of 3. I think it worked for the latter as a one-off, but he's kind of a boring character beyond that imo. I feel like a lot of the sections that focus on him in the later MGS games just kind of repeated what 3 was about, and didn't really add much to his character or the general themes of the series.

I also think Solid Snake's supporting cast does a better job of having a variety of personalities and paths of life that interact with the series' war economy, cyberpunk nonsense, and I personally find that more rewarding as a player. That being said, I admit I haven't involved myself in a lot of the codecs and extra stuff of the portable games and V as much as I did in the other entries.

3 and peace walker he's got some life to him, not so much V. None of the support cast in V is very interesting either.

you're part of a bunch of castaways stranded on a remote island. there's a little bit of crafting and resource management involved, but ultimately you survive by beating the poo poo out of monsters coming for your settlement and exploring the rest of the island,, all with a really fun combat system. it's a winning formula imo

I'm still unsure on how I rate this game overall cause there's some real great bits in there and I'm digging the story but the connecting tissue is really light. As a stealth game it feels incredibly light in gameplay compared to 2 and 3 (and I understand it does work if you play it as more straight-up action game). It's like it's a good game but it's a bad Metal Gear Solid game

Ubisoft is making a feature film about a video game reviewer that experiences her love life like a dating sim. Or something.

And there's also a "horror comedy" based on their VR game Werewolves Within coming later this year.

What?
