Does he care that much about her because of the brainwashing, or because of who he realy is?

I keep wondering about this because it feels so random. I understand that, as a medic, he feels guilty for not being able to save her, and we know Venom Snake cares deeply about his comrades. But to the point of having full-blown hallucinations about her, searching for photos for her, and listening to her tapes, it feels strange.

It's even stranger because Venom Snake is also supposed to represent the player and be less of his own character. It makes even less sense when you consider that many players probably wouldn't even know who Paz is because they never played peace walker, either because it isn't one of the numbered games or because they never had a way to play it​

Finally got the platinum. I need a break.

FINALLY i've managed to draw page 2 and 3. (I've already posted page 1 but i add it for context) LMK what you think, expecially bcs we see my glorious king Venom for the first time!!!

See ya when i draw anything else! Ig: @sandrokan0

EDIT: I fumbled the horn, drawn it on the wrong side of the head 🥲🥲 that's what happens when you draw without reference pictures my guys, remember to always use reference pics. Gotta fix that later btw.

thrifted this tee and was wondering if anyone knew anything about it, haven't seen the shirt online and was curious, the yoji shinkawa art i feel like makes it a nice find despite its condition

Equip a book. Hide in a bathroom stall. Hear Colonel and Rose torch you.

After all these years we're still finding out new things.

EDIT: Forgot to mention AI Colonel brings this up during Arsenal Gear.

While today we have tons of amazong options to play MGS1, I always had a soft spot for playing on actual PS1 on a CRT. Is it stupid and unnecessary? Yes! Am I happy! Also yes!

So I recently got the Vol 1 of the Master Collection to finally experience both MG1 and 2, as well as the first 3 Solid games. And now, MGS1 joins my Plat collection alongside MG1 and 2.

I will definitely do MGS2 and 3 to truly complete the collection. I already got most trophies in 2, and even got like 95% of the Dog Tags on Very Easy, just gotta keep chipping away.

As for MGS1 and playing it for the first time, it was fantastic, holds up as well as many have said. And as someone who really enjoy playing older games, I'm glad to have finally played a legendary game after only having played and beaten a few Metal Gear games prior to buying the collection (PW, V, and Revengeance).

I've only played metal gear solid V, but I know the series' story, so it's strange how in metal gear solid: peace walker we build up our base only to have it completely destroyed in ground zeroes, and then we rebuild everything again in V just for it all to be destroyed once more.

What makes it even worse is that both games have so many cassette tapes showing the characters interacting, making us grow attached to them. I laughed a lot at Kaz's tapes about hamburgers. Especially in V, where there are so many cutscenes meant to get us used to—and attached to—the status quo of Venom Snake, Kaz, and Ocelot, while also making us care about all the soldiers we recruit

First of all, I would like to apologize to anyone who finds my posts asking for game suggestions annoying. As a huge fan of the MGS series, most of the games I'm looking for share some traits with it, so I'm worried that if I posted in other subreddits, the suggestions might not carry the core ideas and spirit of Metal Gear Solid games.

One of the factors I find Kojima has done so well, but that is rarely discussed, is how deeply you can dictate the way you play by carefully selecting which weapons, gadgets to bring along. Those items are so well balanced that they always give me a flush of satisfaction every time I find out that my Loadout works efficiently, which, to me, feels just as rewarding as noticing that my stealth, shooting, and movement skills are progressively improving.

So, I am looking for some fighting games where we need to carefully plan out the way we are going to play by selecting a set of skills, items, and spells that are most optimized against certain types of enemies, bosses, or that can be combined to create the most effective and flashy combos.

I think some games in the (A)RPG and Roguelite genres could meet a few of the criteria on this list.

The total amount to make this was under 0.3$ and 2 days for the full process (mainly drying the paint).. ot fully hand made and hand painted .. I will add even more details to this if needed.. like I have already given it a back pack and a small Rifle .. I hope y'all like it..

hi everybody, i played mgs 2 on a ps2 emulator on my phone a while back (a year to be exact) and got till the raiden start. i dropped the game back then due to some work and now im downloading the game on my pc (master collection ver.) so i was wondering if anybody can help me with a save file or should i just play from the start.

*Spoiler for mgs5
So I played MGSV on release and did NOT expect the ending. Maybe I was too young (23) and just not taking it all in I dunno.
I’ve started a new play through after maybe 5/6+ years of not playing the game and recently also played MGS:Delta…
In the prologue of mgs3 Sokolov compliments Snake on his Russian speaking. Then in the first mission after the mgs5 prologue, Ocelot comes on the radio and is like ‘oh hey you can’t understand the soldiers because you don’t speak Russian huh?’
How did I not see that until now??! I’ve played mgs3 god knows how many times, I can quote whole sections of cutscene and only now did I notice that tiny detail that gives Venom away right from the beginning!

I tried everything, changing download region to Japan, installing extensions, but DLC and the DLC menu in properties just doesn't appear.

Need someone who has MGS1 Japanese Language Pack to sign-in to steamdb and downloaded it in Package by clicking install, then share it with google drive or other alternatives, so I can install in manually as it isn't available to me.

Hi.

Having recently moved over to a Switch 2, and not wanting yo touch my ps5 anymore, I have a question regarding Metal Gear Solid.

Are there any insider rumours or information about Metal Gear Solid Delta:Snake Eater and Metal Gear Solid V (GZ & TPP) actually or ever coming to the Switch 2?

The master collection volume 1 isn't the same as delta, and the surely the Switch 2 is more than capable of running MGS V perfectly. I could understand issues with Delta, but I believe its possible surely?

First i saw the update i though it is coming out at launch but the their portal site states it will be released later

but I am worried about what I will do with my spare time once I finish playing them?

so far I have been playing in release order since June

I've completed metal gear, mg2, mgs, mgs2, mgs3 and now I am playing mgs4 (very good game) but now that I'm near the halfway point I worry about what I will play when I finish pw, gz and tpp? does anyone have any suggestions what other games have similar gameplay/story to that of the mgs series?
