MGS 5 was the first and only Metal Gear game I played through and I might be in the minority but I absolutely LOVED that game. The gameplay loop was so addicting. I spent hours and hours upgrading Mother Base, capturing and recruiting soldiers, and exploring the world just looking for materials. I even went back and S ranked every mission just to unlock Raiden. From the reviews I’ve seen so far DS will probably scratch that itch for me so I’m all in day one
Makes since. As a first time entry you probably don’t have the expectations those of us who were there from at least MGS1 (Shadow Moses). In the end, the story was hollow and gameplay was pretty lackluster after a while. Basically big void left in a very pretty world.
I expected a lot more. None the less Kojimas name carried that game to amazing scores.
