The game also concluded on a pretty disappointing part as well. There were some awesome missions with memorable moments but they were very few and far between. The story itself was pretty slim to being with but add that with the length of the game and it just got stretched way too thin. MGS games have always been famous for there thick and detailed cinematic story but oddly enough, this last part was really lacking in that department. All the awesome trailers we got depicting this epic tale were really misleading. There was hardly anything regarding that in the game. Sadly, it failed to deliver on that promise. Now, this game was showed and advertised as the missing link that will show Big Boss's decent into the other side, how he changes etc etc and was the main reason why I was so pumped up to play it.

The game focuses on us (Big Boss) trying to rebuild our free military force and to take revenge on Skull Face. The whole opening chapter was just phenomenal, one of the best openings I have ever played in a game. The game starts off with us waking up in a hospital. The blast and crash caused Big Boss to go into a nine year coma. Well, The Phantom Pain continues the plot where Ground Zeroes left off.

Would have loved it if they used the MGS series theme in some important part. The soundtrack of the game was pretty good as you would expect from an MGS game. Since I played it on a PS3, won't talk much about the graphics since I know the game doesn't look that good as compared to the next gen counter parts but even on the 9 year old machine, it ran pretty well, all things considered.

Knocking out enemies and using Fulton Recovery to recruit them for your base makes each mission more fun as you always have to consider the option of either killing an enemy or go in for a more stealth play and try to capture them. And it has this wonderful feeling of accomplishment, seeing your hard work in action. This time, you can actually visit your base and move around and see it in getting developed slowly. The mother base aspect of the game was also expanded from what we got in Peace Walker.

The game did has its way of making you try your best to keep a full stealth play, proper tactical espionage. Or just call in support and let them do the dirty work while you smoke your cigar. Biggest new mechanic was the buddy system, where you get several companions over the course of the game that help you in various ways. Lots of freedom and the options continue to increase when you open up new items and weapons and mechanics. The beauty of this game was that almost any mission can be completed in several play styles.

We get two huge areas (Africa and Afghanistan) to explore and have fun in. It was a masterfully executed open world game with full on proper stealth mechanics and I think it is first of its kind. It delivered on the game-play part perfectly, but sadly it lacked in the story department. Can't tell you how excited I was when I finally got to play it. The final chapter in the great MGS franchise, the missing link. Maybe the box clearly states the game is download-only and the installer on the disc is just to assist those confused by Steam's website.This was one of my most anticipated game of this year. How many of those people have unlimited internet bandwidth I don't know but it's possible our bafflement and outrage at this is limited to us and the average person has no idea anything is wrong/different.Īnd maybe there's some context missing.

Not to defend Konami here but it could be that there's a contingent of people who only buy PC games retail because they do things in cash or they gave gift cards to burn or something. At one point I went into a GameStop and their 'PC Gaming' section mostly consisted of Steam cards and a 3-ring binder of games you could buy - you told the clerk which game you wanted and they took your money and gave you a receipt with a Steam key on it.

I mean, once Steamworks retail games became a thing you basically bought a game that included a client that allowed you to purchase pretty much any game you wanted and never leave the house again. 99% is overstating it a lot but it is sort of true that a large % of gamers either buy everything through Steam or they're not PC gamers (i.e., consoles, mobile, etc.)
