I like how basically everyone in the game seems to get tortured, with a black bag on their heads.
That bikini woman, that Otacon dude, etc..

Eye paint to keep the sun out of her eyes, like the kind that (American) football or baseball players use. Cuts down glare.

Could also be a double meaning to convey pain. (running makeup from tears)

Ah yeah, that makes sense. Wouldn't explain its sudden disappearing though. Or it really is supposed to represent tears and it was just symbolic/not real.

I think the bottom line for the Phantom Pain theme is Big Boss and others will remember when they had a soul, or rather a part of themselves that didn't justify and participate in horrible shit. The deepest phantom pain will be the feeling of having a soul when you don't actually have one anymore.

Souls are forever, but it can definitely turn black.

Anyone stop and wonder why all the footage we're getting is Phantom Pain? Is Ground Zeroes super short? Is GZ coming to next-gen consoles? Getting us hyped on a 2014 title makes me sad.

It may not matter much but I just have to get this out there. I'm sorry Kojima and I'm sorry Kiefer. I was wrong to get all butthurt over the voice thing. I couldn't see Hayter's voice in this, the tone is definitely much much different than in the past.
Now on to trailer stuff. Has anyone else noticed that at around 5:24 when he's smoking the cigar at night it looks odd? Like the cigar isn't a cigar at all, and almost electronic? With their eye for detail this can't just be a mistake. Also I can't imagine this hasn't been brought up already but the way they go out of their way to show the shrapnel, where it hit, and how far it hit seems to be pointing towards a frontal lobe injury being partially an explanation for Snake's shift in character.

Awesome post. I definitely noticed the cigars cherry looked odd.

Thought the same thing when they showed the x-ray stuff.

Can't explain that. Just seems like some symbolic cinematography to me.

Is Kaz missing his left eye or both eyes? Even when the sunglasses are put on him his left eye stays completely closed. It also appears that Kaz wasn't sleeping, Big Boss immediately grabs his face and converses with him. If Kaz isn't sleeping, why didn't he call out to Big Boss when he entered the room?

How long until we get a release window? Not talking an exact date, but at least a year and preferably a quarter. I'm thinking some time in 2014.

Might have kept him in a dark place for a long time

You mean into Paz's gut. She's a girl. It's kind of why the shirt was still buttoned up over the chest.

Holy shit that was Paz?! Goddamn.

It's getting crazy the things that happen to Big Boss before we get to MGS. Then you know what happens in MGS4 and :(

True, but his left eye looks really hollow. Also Big Boss gets to him at night, and puts sunglasses on him, light sensitivity could still effect him but there's a lot of darkness when he's being rescued.

That CQC double kill....How I am supposed to play stealth if the guns do that and sound like that?

And the animation on Snake's scramble from prone to crouch is amazing. That and the sideways dive are the best parts of this trailer.

Snake isn't the problem. The rest of the cast sounds like they are still stuck in MGS1.

Games like Mass Effect and Uncharted have raised the bar, Konami needs to step up.

wat? i had zero problem with the voice acting.

I have 0 faith they will pull off the subject matter, and, traditionally, open world design has been inferior to linear design. That said, I've yet to see the structure employed in a stealth game and we don't know yet just how open it is. Intrigued at the least.

The sunglasses are more for "Hey, you're Kaz, get up", seeing as they are his signature look. When Kaz puts on the glasses he re-assumes he calm demeanor.

It could have something to do with light sensitivity, though.

I expect taking over bases or areas will be easier than before, I mean you can get in and command a tank/APC. Saving Kaz by taking a tank and driving it across the desert destroying anything in your way will be amazing. Controlling a Metal Gear and speeding across a desert or any landscape would be mindblowing.


I also expect weapon customization for your own arsenal. I'd probably rock a silenced AK and Colt 1911.

I know that, Big boss was trying to make him feel comfortable. It's also a way for him to show that he really is Big Boss, that he knows Kaz has a pair of sunglasses he really likes. A way of identification.

I do think Kaz is missing an eye or both eyes.

Torture, child soldiers, blood diamonds (?), Russians in Afghanistan.
The story and writing is going sevens shades of craaaaazy but it won't be dull, boring or anything we've seen before (except for the horse-riding).

BLOWN AWAY. Best trailer of the show hands down, it really hit hard, game seems intense. I loved Hayter but Keifer is doing a pretty amazing job on this.

"I'm already a demon..." he sounds so genuinely tired and worn down with it all. Can't wait to see the descent into the Big Boss we knew in the early games.

This trailer was absolutely fantastic. The tone was spot on and the beginning was brutal. I hope Kojima doesn't pull any punches with this one.

Oh, I'm sure his eye is gone or beyond repair. I think the glasses were symbolic. Like now Kaz is whole again. Maybe a sense of camaraderie and friendship towards him too.

Yeah, the fact that you can use tanks and other vehicles is probably why Operations is included now. You could really plan an attack rather than just sneaking in, but I just want to sneak like always.

The shooting better not be part of CQC and the player just reacting there. I need my Big Boss emblem and no kill run.

I think that her skin can act as camouflage. It would explain why she shows so much skin. Also the pattern on her face kind of looks like the morphos butterflies from Peace Walker. It's either that or I'm just crazy from watching the trailer fifteen times.

I can't imagine Kaz being entirely blind.

Kaz losing his left eye, and becoming a mirror of Big Boss (he loses the opposite arm Big Boss does) seems quite likely, however. A 'Dark Boss'.

Pft. I need that SOCOM Mk23. Wait... Had that been invented yet in the time this game is set ?

Watch Kojima retcon it that Snake fought Miller in MG1 and 2.

Too soon for the Socom unless he's got some experimental one made by some other company or Mother Base engineers made one.
