wasn't Kojima's whole idea that he wanted the playerbase to willfully disarm all nukes because of A, the actual political and humanitarian parallels, and also B, because they purposefully make the game not fun?
There is a special cutscene that was supposed to appear when all nukes in the game got disarmed but iirc it was either datamined or released separately from the game some time later.
@@sirexilon49 100% But just to add some extra info for everyone else curious: It was 1st data mined and leaked, then much later after communities of people that were trying to get it officially managed to get them down to 20 on PS3 but those last 20 were bugged and impossible to officially complete. They tried for awhile to get Konami to do something about it, but as konami does it wouldn't make them money so why would they spend time on it. So a certain player in one of the groups made a script to clear the last of them, it was reported to the media that it was done officially without hacks but much later in a Did you know about gaming it was revealed what really happened. Highly recommend that video its a hell of a story and I left out a lot.
Yep, there's cutscenes for when all the nukes are removed, because Kojima is an idealist. but also a cutscene for when someone makes them again, because Kojima knows humans are humans.
I think the most heartbreaking thing about MGSV is reinstalling the game to find out your FOB has been raided multiple times while you were gone. I think this time ill never abandon my soldiers again.
you know I'm grindin that mob vote!!! please vote for the Skunkler!!! it's the best one because of its additions to the block placing meta. pleeeease put a check on the ballot next to the Burtling!!! mojangles said we would get a tactical nuke along with him. I NEEED you to select the Figgy Foo as your candidate for this year, or I will perish in 2 second
If you ever come back to it, the special event fobs are a great way to start to understand the mode before you get thrown into someones 4-platform lvl 99 base with max ranked guards and every kind of trap known to man
MGS V is great in it's own way,plus i get a kick when people find out they have been invaded by the PMC "KID SNATCHER". Sometimes i build a nuke just so they can see my name as they take it from me.
"Frottweiler" is a foul name. I love it. Anyway, I'm kinda surprised that the FOB system is still kicking nearly a decade later. Usually these sorts of modes die out sooner than this. Maybe the fact that the mode is asynchronous helps in that regard, working similar to Clash Of Clans-style invasions than duals. You could say the same about MGSV as a whole. Game was half-finished, sabotaged with a weaker story than its predecessors. And yet, I still see memes about the game, fanart about it, even that one phase when everyone was setting scenes of it to Invisible by Duran Duran. And of course I still see analyses about the gameplay and story. It goes to show how even 9 years later, people still care about MGS
I’ve been playing this game since it released, one spout of not playing for 3 years left me a bank of PF points in the millions, and ever since I check back in almost daily for the short term PF battles. I consider my motivation in games to typically be extrinsic as I’m an achievement hunter, but there haven’t been any achievements for me to unlock since 2016, and yet I keep playing. Needless to say, I feel seen
One side trying to enact complete nuclear proliferation, the other effectively having become Philanthropy, trying to perform global disarmament of all nuclear weapons. Narratively, in relation to the context of all of Metal Gear’s plot and metaplot, it’s a perfect microcosm, at least, I think microcosm is the right word. Regardless, it’s genuinely beautiful.
I played through the whole game while I didn't have internet set up in my apartment and had no idea this online mode was even a thing, much less this in depth... I need to get back in
It's an absolute masterpiece, regardless of the valid complaints about it. Hope you love it as much as I did. PC or console? If on PC I recommend modding even in your first playthrough. Lots of quality of life updates in some of them.
This has nothing to do with the video's theme, but i just wanted to share a personal thing. A while ago, when i was first understanding that i was trans and after watching the "How My Transition Saved My Life" video on release, i started developing a weird kind of...impostor syndrome, and was ovetaken by an overwhelming anxiety realated to this chanel. It would come to the point of where even seeing it's thumbnails on my fyp would make me anxious and nervous. Now, a long time later, i've come to understand and accept myself, my impostor syndrome has gotten much smaller and so did my anxiety. This is the first video of yours i have watched in a good while, and i couldn't be happier to see the quality of the videos are still amazing Godspeed LH, you're an inspiration for me
I was there, 9 years ago... it was fantastic when the updates for the game started to come, at the beginning the weapons were not as powerful, they were the same as base singleplayer, as the updates came the weapons race became ridiculous, at its peak it was fantastic when you were discovered, the fight against the other FOB commander were really tense, nowadays you can alert the FOB and there's a chance the player will never appear...and all that is without speaking about the Disarmament race
have you ever heard of "brazilian drug dealer 3 i opened a portal to hell in the favela trying to revive mit aia i need to close it"? this suddenly became my life's work and I don't know how to react to that, i'm in a weird position but feeling kinda scared but honored
Hearing you talk about the timers in this way is really enlightening, I have the no timer mod installed, I think I'll get rid of it, I feel like it'll be satisfying.
This is coming out just as I'm starting to move up into the espionage ranks where it seems like people actually still do PVP. I've made up for the 5 years where I couldn't play. This is a really interesting guide.
Hey i've been a fan for a pretty long time now and I just wanted to say regarding to the closing section of the video that i hope you're doing great. You're an amazing creator and i love your videos (I myself am a trans girl who's been trying to get on HRT for the past 2 years and thanks to your content i keep pushing). And happy birthday :3
riot suits are a joke, unless you want no kill no extract runs. They can't see shit, they clank louder than Sahelanthropus and they go down to a single CQC move or knife to the throat same as Private Conscriptovich in his striped tanktop.
I've played a decent amount of Metal Gear Solid V. Oddly enough, the thing that drew me to it the most was MGO3 and some of the fun RUclips content I saw. I really liked the multiplayer mechanics (as frustrating as they can feel at times) and the skill of trying to do nonlethal tactics against people using lethal ones or the more objective based modes. I played the singleplayer campaign and fairly quickly burned out on the repetition. I haven't heard of anyone talking about the FOB missions but seeing your video on it makes me wanna play through the campaign and try it out.
This video inspired me to reinstall MGSV and finally try to finish A Quiet Exit (fuck the game for locking you into it), and I am now looking at FOB infiltration guides. Thanks!
@vlacroix fair lol, that mission was extremely hard while trying to keep good boy(tm) status and not resort to a rocket launcher and anti material rifle lol I'd still say give quiet the sinful butterfly AMR for that one
Great video -- but one tip to consider when using the tranq pistol or sniper on guards is that even w/ high level armor their face is still always an instant-sleep, but you need to be super considerate about the dart speed and drop at distance.
They need another game. MGS6 needs to fill in the space between the end of this game and the start of Metal Gear's storyline, where a young Solid Snake is sent out by Big Boss to kill this one Venom Snake. Either Konami needs to make it happen without Kojima, or Kojima needs to buy the rights from Konami. I heard Kojima announce just the other day from his studio that they are working on "the spiritual successor to Metal Gear" with a brand-new stealth espionage action game. I'm intentionally quoting those words because Konami copyrights the last three words. He couldn't legally use the term "stealth espionage action" unless...
i was afking osrs while watching this and every time i looked over to grab more shit out of my bank i kept thinking you were going kreia mode in this video lol. Love the mgsv content!
Im gonna be honest ive been on and off abt watching your more personal videos, they really are "sit down and listen" videos that you pick for when you have good food to eat by yourself I dont fully get the hells you go through, but i have a lot of my own and get what its like I dont really know ehat the point of this comment is, your videos are good, i dont have the kind of issues to be mad at youtubers for what they are unless its really illegal like scamming pr endsngering people or being a minecraft youtuber stereotype.

Beautiful trans woman talks about MGSV for 32 minutes god is good amen 🙏
why is everyone just now seeing the good in this game
Because, I'm afraid it's been 9 years.
bc we all played it when we were like 12 and now grown up enough to make vids on it
