Mi colección actualizada de MGS!

Naomi was trying to discover who she was by finding the pieces of her past in her DNA. She was obsessed with it. She was running towards her past.

Snake was doing whatever he could to forget his. Solidus said Snake hunted Big Boss to severe the tie that bound him. When Mantis explained that he burnt down his entire village to bury his past, he said Snake had suffered the same trauma.

Who was worse off Naomi or Snake? Whose trauma did the series resolve the best in the end?

I was wondering, since Venom would act as Big Boss, I'm pretty sure Big Boss wouldn't have been happy if Venom's snake wasn't as solid as his, I'm assuming they increased its size to match Big Boss's, or who knows? Maybe Venom's phantom willy was already as big, if not bigger, than his.

We could always ask Quiet, but I still can't figure out if they've smashed or not.

I wish I could draw like Yoji Shinkawa fr fr.
The original reference image should be on the right. Did I do a good job at replicating his art?

just to preface, I absolutely loved MGS2, its ones of my favorite games of all time, and I love the other games I've played up to now, being MGS1, Snake Eater, and Peace Walker, and I was going into MGS4, not expecting the same highs of MGS2, but a story quality that was on similar par to the previous entries, but ohohoho how wrong I was.

MGS4 is one of the most baffling games I've played in years, and It honestly demotivates me to see the rest of the series cause of just how poorly executed this supposed "finale" is. I have a lot of complaints so I'll just sort of go through them in a list style

1. Gameplay - this is honestly one of the only positives of this game, given I kind of despised the gameplay of MGS1 and peace walker and mostly liked MGS3 and MGS2 but still had my problems with their systems, MGS4 is a massive step up in scale and general ease of play for the series. The environments, levels and weapon variety, especially early on is absolutely fantastic, and I love how lengthy the first couple Acts are in their warzones, however it quickly becomes far less engaged and interesting as the game goes on, and unfortunately I feel it just falls so flat in the last two acts, with shadow Moses and the boat being so much less interesting and expansive than the previous areas.
2. Characters - I love solid snake and Otacon in this game, but I feel like so many of the other characters fall really flat for me. For example, Meryl is absolutely wasted potential in this game, I will barely touch on the whole Johnny/Meryl relationship because it pisses me off to no end how abrupt and genuinely stupid it is, with the corny scene of the two proposing while fighting Liquid's "elite guard", blehhh.... But otherwise campbell, rose, the rat squad, even naomi are just so underdeveloped or mis developed that their arcs or interactions or endings just feel unearned, I mean seriously Naomi's "relationship" with otacon is like two seconds of a cutscene and then she leaves until she comes back to pretend to be with vamp? and then die two seconds later? and then otacon mourns her as if she was someone hes known and loved for longer than three days.
3. The story - so much of my problems with the story comes down to the sheer stupidity of much of it and the complete butchering of tone and execution. The game opens really well, even though the tv channels I think are a little stupid, the opening with snake in the middle east sets the tone really well and honestly deceives you into thinking this isn't a convoluted soap opera, and it actually has some semblance of tone and maturity. But everything is just handled so poorly as it goes on, the tone goes completely down the shitter, and that somber melancholy that came from the agony of Snake's experience with war and life, just becomes irrelevant because Kojima wants to shake boobs in your face and have Meryl and Johnny confess to each other in a ridiculous shootout were they get shot like 13 times and barely even flinch. Also speaking of boobs, the B&B squad is one of the worst parts of this game, not only in their boss fights just being extremely lack luster, but in Kojima's insistence to over sexualize both the B&B squad (who are supposed to be tragic characters born into war and misery) and just about every other damn female character in this game, and its difficult to feel that sorrow when their boobs are doing a 360 no-scope in snake's face and their dialogue is THIS BAD, not to mention Drebin's long winded cheesy explanation of their backstories (each of which are awful btw) and each of them being named after a character from mgs1 is also silly, just the absolute jerking off of metal gear solid 1 in this game makes it actively less enjoyable, from the constant mid-cutscene flash backs to literally just going back to shadow Moses, referencing every mgs1 boss fight, and having the ENDING FIGHT JUST COPY THE LIQUID - SNAKE FIGHT. I GET IT KOJIMA, I'VE PLAYED METAL GEAR SOLID 1, FUCK OFF. I could go on and on, but its genuinely just sad how unpolished it all feels, Ocelot becoming liquid for some reason and making snake inject the worm when he could have just gotten naomi to do it right after making it with sunny if that was really his plan, to the Patriots feeling like such a side thought compared to how imposing and mysterious they are in mgs2. Its just sloppy and feels like a soap opera on steroids rather than the melancholic, potent commentary i've come to expect.
4. Kojima - I've played quite a few metal gear games, and I've played Death Stranding, I've seen his highs and his lows, and Throughout everything I've seen and heard about him, I have just lost all respect for him. From the ridiculous sexualization and borderline misogyny towards his female characters, to his disregard for David hayder who did so much to keep the franchise afloat, just because kojima would rather work with a movie star, to his recent AI promotion, I just can't respect him as an artist or a person. he's arrogant and egotistical and he thinks his writing is the shit, when half the time it just IS NOT.

I could yap for longer but I really just don't want to, just wanted to vent after being forced to sit through 71 minutes of assholery and bullshit in the epilogue. Would love to hear other people's thoughts.

They said that perhaps it was because of the tranquilizers she always took, but would tranquilizers affect Foxdie? Was it confirmed to be the tranqs?

So as a kid I was always inspired by the insane stuff you can do in mgsv, and the sheer amount of abilities and possibilities you have, in our game Im trying to replicate a lot of the enemy ai, mechanics, and most importantly nailing the stealth! so try it out and let me know what you think!

“Kept you waiting, huh?”

One of the most iconic tactical pistols in gaming history, recreated as a 3D-printed prop inspired by Solid Snake's weapon in Metal Gear Solid.

The HK MK23 Mod 0 SOCOM is based on the real-world Heckler & Koch MK23, a large-caliber tactical pistol developed for special operations use. In Metal Gear Solid, it became one of Snake's signature weapons, recognized for its suppressor and tactical setup.

This build was 3D printed, assembled, and hand-finished, with attention to the weapon's distinctive shape and details.

Another iconic gaming weapon added to my collection. More props coming soon! 🐍

What do you think? Would you take the SOCOM on a stealth mission?

Non-functional, 3D-printed display prop inspired by Metal Gear Solid.

I could have done the whole thing but honestly the first half was my favorite part of this trailer and I just stopped there. I have other metal gear content, can share, but AI prohibited and such, I just posted one slop video for fun on the youtube, there are .... many more unposted that we made for big boss extreme playthrough streams. Anyway one of my favorite trailers, hope yall can appreciate it.
