The story, one of the trademarks of the MGS series, is both the worst and most under-developed ever (even MGS 4 had a much better and more impactful one). It's a highly ambitious game that sadly doesn't hit its goals, maybe because of the notorious fallout between Konami and Kojima. I am a big MGS fan, but I have mixed feelings about The Phantom Pain. I would highly recommend this game to anyone looking for a great stealth action or third person shooter game. Other than those (admittedly minor) issues, Metal Gear Solid V is an overall wonderful game and deserves its spot in the Metal Gear series! Sure, there's a lot of content that got left out (I'm looking at you, Mission 51), but what's in the game now is more than enough to make up for it.

The graphics are beautiful and the game always runs smoothly, the story is great (though, honestly, not as deep as previous Metal Gear games like 2 or 4), and the style of gameplay keeps you on your toes! The only complaint I really have is how invasive the online features are you can't construct any FOB's (extra bases) offline, and nuclear weapons are useless to offline players. It still has all of the quirks of a Metal Gear game, but the open-world maps usher in previously unheard of levels of freedom to the Metal Gear series.

Hideo Kojima has done it again! Although it's a radical step forward and a break from tradition for the Metal Gear series, MGSV is a well-executed game that excels in almost every aspect of gameplay. This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I have a few other complaints such as a lack of variety in a few levels, challenge levels that serve to pad the game's length, etc, etc. Psychomantis? FIre Guy? Skull Face? Sahelanthropus? The hell is all this? Unlike Witcher 3, this game's story is unfriendly to newcomers. Big Boss speaks incredibly rarely, and I had very little context to any of it. The story in this game is very bare bones. I hadn't played Ground Zeroes, so I was completely new to the franchise's convoluted (from what I've heard) story. And that's the main difference between this game and Splinter Cell. I'm not saying that choice is necessary in all games (linear games have their place), but it certainly works in this game. It's a very dynamic, reactionary game that lets you tackle things the way you want to tackle them. Each mission starts you several hundred feet away from your objective (albeit with an annoyingly long, unskippable cutscene) letting you choose how you get to the objective, and from what angle you take it on. Those of you that love going all out guns blazing are serviced as well (although I don't get why you would want to take that route, you crazy bastards), with plenty of high power weapons sans suppressors for you to use. The potential for tension and fun is palpable, but so is the potential for misery and self-loathing. But, similarly there is nothing more rewarding than stealth-ing your way through an entire stronghold without being seen. There is nothing more soul crushing than being spotted and being thrust straight into a firefight that can lost several minutes at a time. It also makes you feel like a bumbling idiot (if you're like me and enjoy the stealth route far more). But, similarly there is nothing more rewarding than stealth-ing your way through an entire stronghold without This game makes you feel like a badass.
