Don't mess it up like MGS5. People that have played MGS5 will know what l mean.
No idea, MGSV was my GOTY, so I guess whatever you're on about is a good thing?

Whelp, I'm tired as shit and my brain is fried, but I'm interpreting that quote (as well as the teaser trailer) to mean that Kojima wants to make a companion game a la The Last of Us, Bioshock Infinite or the new God of War where you spend the game "roped" to someone you care about while poking bad guys with sticks.
I'm probably wrong, though.

Very slightly disappointing.
Hope he gives horror another try next time, and maybe he's just waiting for del Toro to be avaliable or something.

You mean one of the best games that I've played?
Pd: Don't speak for me please.
I played it and it's one of my favorite games of all time.
I wonder how a Kojima IP that starts off at peak Kojima insanity will play out. MGS4 with characters you don't care about?
Wouldn't surprise me.

He said in one of the live streams the first few hours it will be an action adventure game but after that it will be something completely different.
Make no mistake, this won't be a simple action game, it will have horror elements too.
When Geoff asked him if it will be a sci-fi psychological thriller type of game he couldn't answer that.

Kojima, I love you but you need an editor of sorts.
MGS5 was fantastic gameplay but the major pacing and story issues I have are within the game. No mythical Chapter 3 would have resolved it, and whilst I'm sure Konami in-fighting didn't help I ultimately believe they weren't insisting he include the content and structure he did that I disliked.
A short, linear, constrained by nature demo devised by Kojima like P.T = godtier.
Kojima unleashed - results vary massively.

I called it the moment I saw the blue-light-handcuffs and "dog tags"
I bet the 5 silhouettes are 5 bosses.
That said, I hope he changes things up a bunch from MGS - don't wan't the same kinda thing over and over from him. He's free now - let's see what he can do!

The words 'mess' and 'MGS5' do not go together. That game was as near perfect as can be. My GOTY for sure.

Are people honestly not understanding his analogy about the sticks and ropes?
As far as Kojima type explanation goes this one is pretty straight forward.

ah of course a dating sim, make connections and keep everyone close to you, sounds like a rope to me.

Speak for yourself, MGS V was my GOTY.
On-topic though: Interesting, sounds like it will be more of a game-ass-game and less of an atmospheric piece judging by this, though I guess it's way too early to make that call. I am excited to see what it ends up being.
Kojima can do whatever the fuck he wants. He's earned it.
That said, MGSV was a blast to play. It was not perfect, sure, there were a lot of things to improve, but I didn't have that much fun with a game in years when it came along. I hope he hired the people who designed the game's systems, those guys are ace.

After MGSV (gameplay wise), BRING IT Kojima-san.

Not really. MGSV was a pretty amazing action game.

Mgsv had incredible gameplay.

I think that with a Kojima game, horror elements are par for the course, but I also get the sense that this will be more than a cover shooter. It sounds as though he wants to make something familiar, yet very much unlike anything he's made before as he once did with the original Metal Gear.
Exactly.

Sticks? Ropes? Nanomachines?!

No, I don't know what you mean. MGSV has some of the best gameplay I have ever played in a game and is easily what I would call the best stealth game ever.

What if I were to tell you that people can criticize specific aspects of a game harshly yet still find great satisfaction from other elements of it - I will admit, the story in MGS V was complete and utter shit, but it didn't matter, because I was too busy having fun with the actual gameplay mechanics.
Also, 2 minutes? I'm pretty sure once you drop the beacon the longest it takes for the chopper to drop is 30 seconds, not sure if you were making smoke-signals by rubbing sticks together or what.
Going by the debut trailer, this is very likely the kind of story we're getting.

You mean it will have the best gameplay I ever expirienced in a current gen game like MGS V?
I'm guessing you never played a Metal Gear game besides MGSV then. None of the games have what I would call "good writing" at all. The only one that does is probably MGS3 and that still has the cheezy dialogue the series is known for.
Also, 2 minutes? Right....

...lacks reading comprehension.
Calling it now, it's an action game where you can sneak, kill and move around under paperboard cover.
