Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain is going to turn 4 years old in 2019! Hard to believe it has been so long for a game so long in the making, but today, we are going to finish my Metal Gear Retrospective that has been apart of the channel since 2016 by evaluating Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain and seeing how it has held up!

Hamzah Saddiq I think the base gameplay design is completely serviceable, if not the most inspired design. But again it doesn’t have to be, it’s a third person shooter. What I like most about it is the interconnected systems that allow it to be kind of a sandbox. Lure an enemy with a decoy, place a c4 charge next to it, blow it up and draw all the guards to the location, that kind of stuff. Gameplay wise I think the biggest problem is the macro level design. Areas are to far apart from each other with little purpose for the 5-10 minutes of traveling between them. Also this is a personal gripe, but in all metal gear games I don’t like killing people since it’s a recorded stat and I feel bad, but on the other hand the most fun parts of the game often include killing. Kinda wish there was a firefight/horde mode so I could just go all out Rambo instead of just sneaking every mission.

It absolutely is unfinished, even if you don't count mission 51 (which, oh wait, i do, because there it is), to the point that they never really figured out how to implement key story elements and cutscenes and they just shoehorned them in amongst repetitions of the SAME missions from chapter 1 (not even "retreads" because they are the exact same missions, cutscenes and all), and robbed the ending of any potential punch it might have had because (unlike all other cutscenes which had context and their impact was noticed) the ending just...happened. Think about just HOW strong it would have been presenting the battle against Liquid, Quiet's departure, the Paz ending and the big reveal as a proper sequence of events!! Don't get me wrong, even in its state, it is a MASTERPIECE of a game, and i am absolutely grateful for it...just don't tell me it's finished. Konami thought they played us like a GODDAMN FIDDLE....but they didn't.

It's sad how much of this game's narrative and thematic content flies over the heads of so many. Ocelot is the way he is because this is what he needs to be for this mission. Chapter 2 is so aimless because it's designed to represent the emotional emptiness of revenge. The reason why the truth mission is number 46 is because that's the only chapter of Moby Dick not narrated by Ishmael. Venom is an amalgamation of the personalities of the player and of Big Boss; when he's speaking, he's BB, when he's silent he's the player. Diamond Dogs are not heroes, they're a cult. Etc. Etc. Kojima finally does something that everyone has been asking for years: he's actually subtle with his story...and then everyone thrashes him for not having enough cutscenes like in the previous games \_('-')_/

@@kingnro1 Chapter 2 feels so aimless not because of some thematic message, but because it doesn't have Mission 51 to serve as the pay-off for all the nonsense it built up. Chapter 2 builds up said nonsense to keep the player engaged while it picks up up pieces and clarifies any confusion caused by Chapter 1. Chapter 1 leaves the player in a daze because it was poorly paced and should have established most of the stuff told in cassette tapes, from both Chapters 1 & 2, during the main campaign.

@@user-xe5pe9yg2e Honestly, I think it could very well be a game that's completed but feels like it isn't, and all for a thematic purpose. Look at the beginning of Raiden's Big Shell mission in 2. It was tedious to no end with codec call after codec call hampering your progress. And that is pretty much believed to be Kojima being meta and showing the player what the sequel could have looked like by copying the previous game, and doing it in a way that it is more annoying than that game, something you could read as a statement on high expectations. So Kojima absolutely could murder player enjoyment for a theme. I 100% believe he would, and probably did. Is he the only reason for the game being in the state it is? No. Konami definitely had a hand in the mix, but Kojima was the biggest problem.

​@@kingnro1 You're giving Kojima way too much credit. Ocelot is the way he is, because Kojima's writing has gone downhill since MGS4. Miller is literally the only character in MGS5. He's the only character in the entire game with an actual personality. Because Kojima has been sick of writing making Metal Gear since the early 2000's. For years he's wanted to move on from Metal Gear and has only ever returned because he never wanted to see his beloved series, the series he's created, the series that started his career get derailed by his departure and being made by people who don't understand Metal Gear. (Cough, cough, Metal Gear Survive) You really think Chapter 2 being empty was intentional? You really think he wanted to convey revenge by...having the player replay older missions at harder difficulties? Konami pulled the plug on this games budget because development was not only taking too long but too much money was being poured into it that they were afraid the games development budget was getting so large that it was affecting their ability to make an actual profit on the game. Which is why Ground Zeroes was released. So many things were cut from this game. It has nothing to do with Kojima being thematic. It has to do with the studio trying to save money on an overly ambitious product that was costing them way too much money to make. MGS5 is a weak, overworked, exhaustive punch. And is FAR from this subtle storytelling masterpiece you seem to think it is. All of the insanity in MGS2 was carefully constructed. Everything in MGS2, from the level design mimicking Shadow Moses, to the careful callbacks to dialogue in MGS1, the music, all of it. It was made to deliberately toy with expectations and make people question what they wanted. This? MGS5? Is not that and will never be that. MGS5 is the result of Kojima and Konami being sick of metal gear. That just happened to have a massive budget behind it with carefully detailed graphics. MGS5 will never get the delayed appreciation MGS2 got. Because it was not created to be an over budget disappointment. It simply was one.

Since venom got the tape player early in the game, I thought he knew he wasn't the real big boss, but he also didn't know that ocelot and miller did know. He felt he had to speak little in order to not say something that might give him away. Plus he had a bad case of PTSD. Paz was literally a hallucination. I love Venom. HIs silent demeanor and desire not to kill Quiet speaks to his "do no harm" personality from being a medical professional. I love the game.

Infamous 2 did it better. Drop down off the boat with the camera facing down, look up, then turn left because that's where the action is. Rather than putting the camera at a central point and asking you to look away, it's putting the camera in a logical place and then asking you to move it to where it needs to be. So many people don't even realize that's what is happening, they just think it's making you turn toward the action.

Most likely licensing issues from the gun manufactures prevented the guns to be used. Japanese game company's and devs do have a history of giving the middle finger to copyrights holders, but new copyright laws in Japan prevent that now from happing. So most likely what happen was when Konami and Kojima ask to use the rights were A. told no by the company who has the patent or B. they wanted to much money for the use. That and from what I gathered, It can be a real pain the ass to get a copyright license for anything so it cheaper and faster to make something up.

Minor correction, but the 'One that Covers' (the parasites used by Quiet, the End, the Pain, etc.) aren't the vocal cord parasites. I get it, though. Parasites as pretty much an early form of nanomachines was a little hard to stomach. (Though the vocal cord parasites specifically were more an early form of Foxdie) As for Mantis, no augmentations. He's a genuine psychic. Regardless of what Ocelot said in 2, even just the existence of the Sorrow debunks it. Lastly, just to be fair to Paz, even though she ultimately proceeded with her mission from Cipher, she was genuinely getting attached to BB and the others at Mother Base. Pretty much why she disclosed Zero's location if it would save Big Boss (moot point since Skull Face proceeded to attack and try to kill Big Boss because he wanted vengeance on him as much as Zero. Actually kind of sad that most of the bad events in the Solid Snake era were actually a result of Skull Face's vengeance in multiple ways. From Foxdie to Cipher/the Patriots going out of control).

I kinda get behind why Ocelot is the way he is in MGSV. In Snake eater, he and BB were enemies. But they became friends, and this game tries to show that Ocelot actually has a caring side for the person he looks up to and considers a fellow comrade. He maybe ain't as flashy as he is in other MGS games, but the point wasn't to show him as an antagonist, but a friend. And thats one aspect of the game I actually like. Additionally, the game showed us Ocelot torturing Huey. But I agree, he could have been a bit more dickish while still being a bro to Venom. Also, the worst sin about Skull face was that we didn't get his gun.

Also he knows that Big Boss is actually the medic and he's keeping it a secret, thus the supporting and fake personality he had the whole time.

I really wish we got to see more of Miller. He is the most compelling character in MGSV. But after you save him in the beginning he is put on the sidelines, then you rarely see him because there are hardly any cutscenes or story beats that happen throughout the game anyway. *SPOILERS* In my opinion he is the most tortured character in the game and the only character we can really relate with. He was comrades with Big Boss for years, and not only does he lose limbs so he cant fight like he used to even though he is a skilled soldier, but he gets completely betrayed. He had no idea that Venom was a fake and Ocelot always knew. The entire time Miller genuinely believes he is with someone he has known for years, someone who he has been through a lot with, trying to build towards their future goals together as a team. But that is not the case at all, He is left behind with an imitation of what he once knew. With no choice but to feel anger and frustration after being abandonded and lied to, he ends up declaring revenge and actually trains solid snake years later lol. The player and him share the same phantom pain.

"He had no idea that Venom was a fake and Ocelot always knew. The entire time Miller genuinely believes he is with someone he has known for years, someone who he has been through a lot with, trying to build towards their future goals together as a team." The cut-scene at the end of the game between Miller and Ocelot occurs directly after Miller is rescued. Miller thinks Venom is Naked Snake for the mission you rescue him. After that, he's aware that Venom isn't Naked Snake. Which explains why he is so hostile towards Venom. But by the end of the game (a Shining Light... to our Brothers in Arms), he's fully on board with Venom.

Well, they did 'explain' why Ocelot was off in this game in the 'Truth' cassette tapes. I don't like the explanation tough, it isn't better than just saying "Psychotherapy, son." I actually like the fact the game itself IS the phantom pain that's spoken of. I also think MGSV is the best game to meet the franchise. Knowing nothing about the franchise leaves you sympathetic with Venom Snake and when you learn more and more everything feels more meaningful. There go my unpopular opinions.

I agree. With a lore as deep and complicated as MGS, tampering with it and trying to tie up so many loose ends just wasn't going to happen. Venom Snake is the best dude in the series. He does legitimately heroic things despite knowing the entire world wants him dead. The man he's impersonating even sends his son on a suicide mission to kill him. Venom Snake, while not as compelling as The Boss, also had his entire life rewritten by the powers that be, in order to be the nasty villain.

Also don't forget to disable reflex mode and MARKERS , see how well you fare in a giant enemy outpost prepared with sniper rifles, shotguns, body armor or during the night with night vision and binoculars, without being able to see where each enemy is at all times or the safety net that is reflex mode. Trust me, even after 200 hours or so of pure gameplay, it's tough, especially with the lower grade equipment and trying to remain undetected all the way through, but is much more satisfying when you get that S rank after an attempt that has lasted for little over an hour :D

That's hitting "develop weapon" in the game, and not being able to use it for a week and 3 days in real life, to the second. And advancing the system clock doesn't work either. They know that trick. But luckily you can speed up development of weapons and base facilities. How? With real life money of course. Putting in your credit card number in and buying "mb coins".

Don't take this personally, but this is a weak analysis. In the future I'd suggest taking the time to better study the game before critiquing it on such a specific level. Your overall conclusions are generally well-founded but every time you go into specifics you reveal how little you actually payed attention to the game. For example, you were asking what Mantis has to do with Volgin? They were stored in the same facility. Mantis sensed the anger and resentment Volgin held for Boss. Volgin's hatred influenced Mantis, causing his body to reanimate as the Man on Fire. This is clearly stated in the game, and its just one example where you could have mitigated a lot of your own complaints by simply paying attention. If you want to make a more vague style of review, that's completely okay, but maybe stay away from nitpicking small details which you have admitted you weren't interested in enough to pay attention to. Hopefully you can take this criticism and use it to improve future reviews. Best of luck.

the prompt to move the camera to "look up" etc are actually to set the conrols intuitively - some players like inverted camera movements. Quite smart really.

When I first played through MGS4 I thought it was the greatest thing yet. After finishing the game the freshness started to fade away and I saw what a flawed and empty game it really is. But MGS5, though it leaves a phantom pain in your heart, is still a thrill and always will be.

i do have one disagreement and it would be about the play styles. The first time I went to Africa and started fighting walker gears i started packing a silenced lethal side arm and a grenade launcher. It helped me to realize the "downfall" of Big Boss. Sure tranqing people yields higher rewards but wet-work is just that...work. and when something feels like work the brain naturally starts to cut corners and do things in half the time with half the energy expenditure. I don't care about every A+ soldier when I'm looking for intel or a blueprint. Sometimes A+'s gotta die so i can just get in and out quickly lol.

"Word for word dialog" as you show them paraphrasing rather than just repeating. You don't know what word for word means do you? it means saying exactly what a person said before, without changing it in anyway. The fact that the examples you showed had at least showed them saying it in a different way makes it not that.

My favourite Metal Gear stories are MGS1 and 3, mainly because they're pretty straightforward. All the themes of war, politics, betrayal, genes, memes, and more enhance the stories, but don't drown them. At their core, these are stories about a man doing his duty despite the walls of his world being torn down around him. And that's what makes them compelling. Watching David and Jack fall in love, have their hearts broken, bodies abused, and their values questioned and sometimes torn apart all the while fighting and killing his way through men and women to stop a potential nuclear holocaust. It's compelling as all hell.

Interesting enough it's been a year so you may know this now but the reason most games have you move the analog stick to "look up" is a clever way for them to invert the camera if you play inverted so if you were to push down when he says look up it'll change the option accordingly this happens in many games for instance psychonauts or assassins creed 4

It's a great review and all but something I don't understand is why nobody talks about the deeper elements of the game like the first infection on mother base which is one of the most player engaging moment in this game... Or why no one talks about all the questions this game asks about English language dominion and Language in general, about the question of ethnicity and borders in Africa. People seems to only want the entertaining parts of the game "the next episode of Big Boss epic story" or fan service such has "Play the fight between Solid and Venom" but the core of the game is really not there. In my opinion the serie's story has never been about the characters and there actions but more about the exploration of several political and philosophical themes (even if the writing of Kojima is a little cheesy by Western standards). Metal Gear Solid V The Phantom Pain is about Lost, Identity, Language and Communication but it's too bad that many reviewer just talk about the tip of the iceberg, about how the game failed to tell a conventional story (The story of MGSV has to be earned by the player, it comes within the soldier's conversations, environmental narration and the cassette tapes) I hope that one day, the unfinished mess that is Metal Gear Solid V The Phantom Pain will be seen by the majority of players as one of the greatest attempt to rise the medium like MGS2 in 2001
