You are a good man.
But only from people that don't like the series.
Fans and reviews never really complained about the story or to many cutscenes.

Nothing at all, I was being completely genuine. It's the best series but not many people agree. I got your back.

And a wiser man once said that MGS2 was the best movie I ever played.
Of course you do, you use that word too liberally thereby devaluing any weight or meaning it has.
Or you know, I'm less of a cynic and don't take the series too seriously.
You too, bro. Yoy know what's up.

Ah, fair play. Most of my mates think S2 is the highlight. I can never make my mind up between the first 4 myself.
Or you know, I'm less of a cynic and don't take the series too seriously.
Nah, you definitely use that word too much.

I don't blame you, season 4 is fantastic as well. Second best, by a hair.
Ah, you said the first 4. My bad.
IT was a bit much in MGS4
if MG was a movie it would be The Room calibre lbr
MGS4 sold out on its vision by the third act. Like "Ah, fuck it, let's just do a tailing mission". By Act 4 'Stealth in an active battlefield' is a distant memory.
It's like if MGSV decided to stop being an open-world game halfway through.
It is for that reason most (among the others) that MGS4 is, in my opinion, the worst mainline Metal Gear Solid. Kojima copped out and followed the core gameplay concept with a tailing mission, a bike chase, a sequence that gets by only on nostalgia, and one powerful moment in whatever the fuck the last act of the game was.

No, not really. Only very few games reach that title in my book.

The con they gave is actually true for the whole series, so I'm okay with that.
Part of metacritics?

You're good people.
There's only 5 series, isn't there? Either way, you're good people too.
I didn't mind act 3. Definite change of pace and I like the stealth aspect of it.
But you are right. The whole "Battlefield" thing Kojima was going for was lost after act 2.

I just need the game, I NEED IT.
What's sad it's that after that Review thread, it seems people have abandoned this one.

Often considered the worst one - even though it's still brill, obviously. I had a 4-5 month hiatus from The Wire about five episodes into S02, solely because the pacing shat a brick. Doesn't pick up until ep 10 which is a big mistake.
Edit: parguably S02 is the most important in the whole series story-wise, though. The scene is set.
Now MGS!
