I liked 2 regardless of it's flaws, it still had some really neet gameplay and a neet ol story to it.

How was mankind divided? It looked shit

>>15301973

It was decent. Gameplay was pretty much the same as HR but the game is completely unfinished with an ending out of nowhere. The story is trash with such a hamfisted MUH RACISM allegory/message, bunch of SJW type characters you have to help and deal with. The game was also butchered by DLC kikery.

Its certainly not a must play and you really won't miss much if you don't play it. The series appears to be dead for now because it underperformed and there was a lot of backlash because of it being unfinished and jammed with DLC scumming.

Hopefully he killed his VA afterwords. That's the worst goddamn voice acting I've ever heard.

No homo, but Todd is strikingly handsome in that picture. Maybe he just becomes more photogenic with a pair of milkers at his side.

> The free camera movement is trash

1) RTFM, there is a button and I think an option to disable it.

2) You should try standing around a corner and moving the camera as an extension of your player to peek around corners, idiot.

3) I bet you didn't know you can't be seen by enemies in tall grass if you are prone, in Intrusion Mode, and use right and left triggers to poke your head out of the grass. Your "visible collision" doesn't change for the enemies, so even though you look like you're standing up in first person mode, you're still laying down.

4) That camera is great, standard MGS camera eats my butt and balls twice.

the remakes have free cam, the original copy MGS3 has no such thing

Human Revolution was kind of shit as a stealth game. It's got pretty good atmosphere and Jensen is an alright protagonist, but it sucks because most stealth scenarios use what I like to call, "chest high contextual stealth". Much like Gears of War's primary gameplay style became a cancerous "whack a mole" affair, HR and MD both tend to place the player into scenarios in which they can easily slip by undetected by utilizing a series of well timed contextual prompts that allow them to quickly move from one object to another, in order to span the entire distance of any given room and pass by undetected.

The majority of scenarios play out this way and, while there are some moments that make the player pause for thought and plot out a course in order to avoid getting detected, most scenarios boil down to either the aforementioned tactic or the use of a special ability that can be used to bypass the need for stealth entirely.

>>15301909

Stealth in MGS3 is like PacMan: San Andreas though so it's refutable for every game in the series but V.

>>15301909

Hitman might be real stealth with an emphasis on disguise, but hitman is frustrating. Not fun. Not fun at all.

>>15301909

SC:CT and MGSV are the only ones that should be on that list.

Where is Thief?

mgs2 is a series of straight corridors

mgs3 is a series of small open areas leading to a few areas with straight corridors, distractions in mgs3 can open up entire areas not a hallway that you can just shoot/tranq the guards and run through anyhow

Raiden should have been more like a younger Snake. He should have been an ideal S3 candidate, a blank slate who goes in thinking that his mission is "cool", but is humbled and shaped into a human being by his experiences, choices and the people that he meets. Yet, in the end he also has to face the fact that these defining experiences in his life have been synthesized by an adversary that wants to shape his mind and turn him into a weapon. Did he really escape the simulation, or was this part of the plan? Has he truly developed as a person, or is all that just an illusion to create another Solid Snake? He can never be certain. Searching for himself, he retreats from the public eye to Alaska, to become a dog musher.

Instead we got an insecure, moody pansy with relationship troubles and a badly obfuscated deus ex machina ending pieced together from scraps on the cutting room floor after the Manhattan crash sequence and all references to it were cut. And then on top of that they went and retconned Raiden's character development twice for MGS4 and MG:R.

mgs3 is better

>>15303526

Proggression in mgs3 is far more pronounced than 1 or 2. Sure player choice/distraction can change that, but unless you spend your time listeningg to optional codecs, the depth is hidden (which isn't a bad thing)

mgs2 is quite good but mgs3 IS better

>wanting used goods

Go be a cuck elsewhere faggot.

>>15306008

you'd literally fuck a guy over paz

>>15303723

You get about 30% of that in the JP version with the original voice. The rest, like you said, it lost to circumstance

mgs2 - raiden is mentally unstable

mgs3 - cqc was made to prevent suicide (or killing friendlies)

mgs4 - did bigboss help old snake defect somewhere?

mgsv - the player betrayed snake in outer heaven

mgs1 - if meryl dying is an alternate universe, then what about paz?

3 wasn't supposed to have that camera. When it was added for the online some hipster interviewer gave kojima shit for it

>>15306530

>full of noise still of a sky with clouds which I genuinely don't remember looking that bad at all

The originals have interlacing blur and in the case of 3 a blurry pissfilter on top

>Using game mechanics how they were designed is cheesing

I bet you refuse to long jump in Bing Bing Wahoo because it makes you jump farther.

>hurp durp

I hope your house gets black mold in the walls and ceiling. And I doubt you knew, you were probably too confused by dual-stick move-and-look you had to disable free cam.
