My favorite part of the crafting is that it's clear that some thought really went into how the combined items would look. You can make some really rad looking swords, spears, etc. Then you can also slap something like a Silver Moblin Tail or whatever onto a pole and it hits like a ton of bricks because of the damage buff, but it looks like absolute ass. Or just put a halberd on a halberd. My favorite useless weapon thus far is slapping a lattice onto a club and making a gigantic fly swatter, which nobody in cutscenes acknowledges despite the fact that it MUST be the stupidest thing they've ever seen. Meanwhile a lot of characters WILL react to you if you walk near / talk to them while naked. Game of the generation.

I would agree that MGS4 does a pretty damn good job of cleaning up most of the dangling stuff brought up in MGS1 and 2 in particular, as well as some stuff from 3 that… probably didn’t need addressing but they did anyway. There are parts of it that are an obvious love letter to the series so far and those by and large work very well. Act 4 is 100% feels and the final fight is pure MGS anime bullshit and it’s great. I also think that 4 does the worst job in the series of exploring its gameplay concepts. Octocamo is a great way of addressing the amount of time you spent in menus playing dress up with Big Boss, but it’s also the game with the least emphasis on infiltration up until that point, so it feels less important than it might have been in earlier games. The B&B Corps are the least interesting bosses in the series; they’re derivative and you find out most of what happened with them from Drebin infodumps after the fact. And while I love me some MGS cutscenes, the gameplay / cinematic ratio in 4 is the worst in the series. It’s maybe a 20 hour game your first time through and there are 8 hours of cutscenes. It’s not like it sucks or anything, it’s just the least interesting game to play in the series for me.

Biden is always going to be willing to compromise and work with Republicans, he’s part of the old guard where that happened all the time, and a non trivial amount of the old GOP are willing to do that in private as long as they can get their pound of flesh on cable news. Nothing about this is surprising.

Not that MGS has ever really shied away from torture, but the shit Wade is talking about and some of the stuff they do in Phantom Pain is my least favorite part of the series. It’s a weird time point in games where I feel like a lot of devs used it to show “how hard” their characters would go, and it fucking sucked.

MGS4 has a 94 on Metacritic, and Phantom Pain has a 91. Absolute madness.

There is simply nothing more stealthy than ass bros who just happen to be where I am at all times exactly when I need them to be there to do some murder. They’re actually much stealthier than Ezio ever was, just like his horse.

Act 3 of MGS4 alone makes it the worst game in the series by far, just an absolutely enormous waste of time. And in hindsight Kojima's powers of prophecy and his commentary in 2 make it a much more interesting game. The Raiden swerve will always be funny to me. That said, the good parts of 4 go extra hard and the nostalgia is real good, there's just like... 2 hours of good gameplay in the whole game.
