I can't take anyone seriously when they say the ending was perfect. Utterly inane bullshit is what it was.
I played the game straight through when I got it on launch and actually ended up falling asleep during the ending just afterstarted talking. Looking back, I wish I hadn't beaten it again once I woke up to see what I'd missed.Big Boss
There are some great moments and it's mostly a fun game for sure but the plot just totally falls to pieces and drags a lot of stuff from older games down with it if you think about it for more than two seconds.
It was the perfect ending for such an insane franchise.
