I am so happy you are playing this part of the story. It is heartbreaking to see how the death of the Boss still haunts him. At the beginning, one could see a Big Boss morally in shambles, like a living corpse trying to make reality what he thinks was the Boss goal and dream, soldiers without borders. Would he be able to get closure? would he be able to put himself together and work through pain to help Paz? When you are done a very nice thing to see is a youtube video called * Metal Gear Solid Peace Walker Music Video 'Heavens Divide' *. Beautiful.
1:35:50 Yes, please don't do two fingers towards us UK people with the back of your hand lol It dates back to the year 1415 during the Battle of Azincourt. Archery with Longbows was strictly an English thing and if any English archers were caught by the French, their fingers would be cut off to prevent them using a bow ever again. So a common sight was the English waving their 2 fingers at the French from afar. In the past 25 years American culture and its middle finger seems to be more common, especially among young British troublemakers who don't know their history. And no, it has nothing to do with vaginas...
A lot of people hates some much on Peace Walker, but i personally think is one of the most underrated mgs game for sure, and is miles away better from MGSV plotwise speaking. It also build the fundamentals of MGSV´s great gameplay. I would actuallly love to see this game remade with modern graphics! You will have a great time with this game for sure Whimsy. I´ll be looking forward for this videos.
Once you reach the "end" you need to keep playing some search and capture missions to unlock the true ending. That's crucial because the true ending is from where Ground Zeroes starts. Keep enjoying this amazing universe sweetheart.
so glad your playing this game now, genuenly one of my fav mgs games!! btw miller and snake are absolutely fruity together in this game and its awesome
Lets goooo. The art style is Yoji Shinkawa's. You have seen his art style since MGS1 in all the promotional material, box arts, main menus. Yes the auto assign function works really well. And you don't have to worry about how much stuff costs. You almost will always have more GMP. The radio is via L1 I think during gameplay (check controls). Thats how its going to be from here on out. You can press it anytime for a short info about your mission, place, or whatever you are zooming on in latter games. So yeah the lengthy codec calls are replaced by the Briefing tapes. Make sure to check them all out as some of them are really important. During some missions, using the L1 radio call will prompt some short funny easter eggs. 1:35:50 The reverse peace sign for the brits is a vulgar sign meaning "up yours". Just tune in to any football match in the English premiere league and watch the fans throw it around lol. His S scar is self inflicted. Not shown to us when he did it. Great video as always.✌🏼
Yeaaaaah, let's go! Also I'm so glad that you're listening to the tapes. As always you don't disapoint, you being so interested in the plot is why you're my favorite streamer. Can't wait to hear your theories as the game goes on. Also, have you ever played Disco Elysium and Slay the Princess ? I think you would love those two game so much, and watching you play those would be amazing
No Spoilers but play MGS5 Ground Zeroes multiple times. Also hats off to ya for playing Peace Walker, so many MGS'ers skip it or forget about it but it's a fun game. I miraculously got the platinum trophy without trying (I hate trophies) I hope your Peace Walker play through goes well
A little fun fact: This game and the Portable Ops games use the same engine that Capcom used on their 3rd generation of portable Monster Hunter games. In Portable 3rd, you can actually unlock outfits of Boss and Snake. Fantastic game. Interestingly close to my own life, as my own family on my mother's side was involved with helping the Nicaraguans fight against the communists in the late 80's in conflicts that stemmed from the same CIA/KGB proxy conflicts that set the backdrop for Peace Walker.
WOOOOOOOO! SHE’S PLAYING PEACE WALKER! Ok, @WhimsyPsyche , while I think MGS2 has the best story, I think MGS: PW has the best cast, setting, and OST. The official theme song of this game is my favorite song of all time. In addition, I would like to add, just a suggestion, I think the trailer for PW is amazing
... Kaz: "Snake, you have to pass those CIA Agents undetected..." also Kaz a couple seconds before "snake, blow that fence with a grenade" ah, metal gear.. So glad you finaly got back into MGS series... "Im have so much emotional baggage into this" ah, metal gear in a nutshell XD By the way, the art used on the cutscenes are realy cool, isnt? Look at that recap on Boss in the lillies flower field... Dude, can you imagine how that will be in MGS Delta?
The dialogue in the beginning is funny to me because the instructions for game play are being told to you while the npc are just looking and watching I’m probably the only on who thinks it’s kinda cringe lol but awesome video
After playing this game and then seeing the first time The Boss calls you in MGS3...... When seeing that codec call with The Boss I tear up every time...
I'm still amazed this is a PSP game. Back in 2010, holding in this little device a full Metal Gear Solid console experience (with some limitations, of course, like no joystick for the camera) and a full blown God of War game was just incredible. This and MGS4 were my first MGS games, too. Very confusing times for me lol
Good call playing this, as this is canon to the story. Gameplay wise it's a bit different from the other games, and Metal Gear Solid V has some elements from it. Portable Ops has some Frank Jaeger (Gray Fox) lore in there but I don't remember that much from it. The name 🤣🤣🤣🤣.
I hope you have plenty of fun with the Outer Ops. They're easy to ignore or speed through, but my friend and I had a great time building our own narrative around the sorties and the continuing sagas of our Outer Ops units. Reading their bios and stats to come up with their individual motivations and personalities-it was a super fun way to amplify the connection with the MSF crew. =D
You can access the codec in the pause menu or you can make it replace the auto-aim button! It's not the same as the ones in the previous games though, it's much more quicker
You're totally ignoring what happened in the San Hieronymo Peninsula. Then again, so do most people. There's one more game between this and MGS3, more or less canonical, called MGS Portable Ops. But since it was not directed by Kojima, him only being the producer, he has said it's only partly canon. So far, it has only been available for the PSP, while Peace Walker was ported for the collection, for other systems. Portable Ops introduced the recruiting system, but you had to drag the enemies to pick up points, instead of the easier Fulton system. Also, the controls were pretty awkward for the PSP, but they were simplified for Peace Walker. That game also introduced a younger version of Campbell and similarly to Peace Walker, had drawn cut scenes.
Hey Whimsy. It is not super important, but I wonder if you noticed, that the Title screen is a MGS version of an analogue TV test screen? You may be too young to remember CRT-TV's.😄 By the way, you didn't listen to the Peace Walker theme, in the title screen, right? You should, it absolutely kicks ass!🥰
If anyone is interested in her Portable Ops Watch along, be aware she accidentally spoiled the cosplay. So yeah, spoiler warning if you don't want to know.😂
I'm not sure what you mean by that. I have not chosen any cosplays yet for Peace Walker, I'm not far enough in the game to make a choice. Or do you mean a previous cosplay I've done?
INcase they put this with metal gear 4 and 5 on the next collection im always for seeing more batman spam but im not going to click on future metal gear soild videos cause of spoilers but have fun playing it
I wonder if the servers to do multiplayer for this are still up or if it’s possible for at least some friends to still play. It would be awesome if so.
You skipped Kazs other briefing files since you were only in the "missions" tab which only showed the fulton one, but you will likely return to them in future videos ^^ The scar will be explained later. Just play and have fun :)
If you want to understand what happened with big boss you must familiarize yourself with the events of the msx games. In fact if you dont do that youll not understand things on mgsv.
They made the game "easier" because it was originally developed for the Playstation Portable (PSP). They didn't want the player to twist his Fingers into a Pretzel, and possibly drop the precious Handheld.😉 That is also the reason why the missions are shorter, because you could be commuting / to save battery charge.
@hatad321 But compared to the "big" games, it was simplified. Do you remember the ammount of buttons one had to press in MGS2, to get in First Person Mode, get on your toes, draw your gun, aim at the bomb-sensors, and shoot. Impressive stuff. But on a Handheld, better not. Also the distance at which you could be spotted was reduced.

Amazing!!! Just a reminder, you can actually use a "codec" in gameplay. You need to change it in the Options menu.
Not a spoiler but once you have finished the main storyline, keep playing the side missions because the story isn’t actually quite over 😊
With MGS it’s never over yet 😉
I was going to suggest the same thing because the "true ending" is super important for the next two games.
I mean the game makes it clear that there is "more" coming at the point you refer to.
for me, this game was the single greatest game of the PSP era
@@hatchhyjack Absolutely, a technical / game-design marvel.👍🏻
And a suggestion, you should do a reaction video with all the secrets and easter eggs you missed in each mgs game ❤ I think that would be fun
Agree!
Love how Big Boss just has hang arounds that wanna learn from him. He inspires in a way most world leaders wish they could.
I totally know already who you're going to cosplay
😂 she's gonna make a great 'SL'
@@Flash_Mexxy so true

I missed your Metal Gear Videos!!!! YAY!!!
Please watch the video for Portable OPS. It really answers a lot of what happened after 3 but before Peacewalker.
I did! It's on the channel!
@@WhimsyPsyche OMG.....I gotta see it! Thank you!
so glad your playing this game now, genuenly one of my fav mgs games!! btw miller and snake are absolutely fruity together in this game and its awesome
41:55 yes, kojima through miller's words, defined portable ops crap. (calling to the night is fantastic)
Lets goooo.

His S scar is self inflicted. Not shown to us when he did it.
Great video as always.✌🏼
Using those art on Cut scenes are a genious way to cut costs on a handheld game. Also with the top voice acting
So hyped for this! It's one of the MG games I haven't played, so I am psyched to watch it fresh with you.
Yeaaaaah, let's go! Also I'm so glad that you're listening to the tapes. As always you don't disapoint, you being so interested in the plot is why you're my favorite streamer. Can't wait to hear your theories as the game goes on.

"Im have so much emotional baggage into this" ah, metal gear in a nutshell XD
By the way, the art used on the cutscenes are realy cool, isnt? Look at that recap on Boss in the lillies flower field... Dude, can you imagine how that will be in MGS Delta?
I'm so hyped I really love watching your playthroughs it's always a ton of fun!
Whimsy's playthroughs are my favorite.
Nobody really takes the time to take everything in like she does.
That's so kind thank you so much 😭
The love box, AKA the ultimate co-op stealth item
There's so much crazy stuff in this, definitely worth doing the side stuff as much as you can
I'm SO happy you're playing this. This is going to be so great
So excited for this new gameplay! Good luck :)
I love this game and the soundtrack 🔥😍. Enjoy the story Whimsy 🥳!
The dialogue in the beginning is funny to me because the instructions for game play are being told to you while the npc are just looking and watching I’m probably the only on who thinks it’s kinda cringe lol but awesome video
Let's go!!!
After playing this game and then seeing the first time The Boss calls you in MGS3...... When seeing that codec call with The Boss I tear up every time...
I think you’re gonna love this game’s story, also trust me the aspect of slowly building up your army of soldiers is such a fun experience
I'm still amazed this is a PSP game. Back in 2010, holding in this little device a full Metal Gear Solid console experience (with some limitations, of course, like no joystick for the camera) and a full blown God of War game was just incredible.

13:09 INTRUDER TO THE RIGHT! INTRUDER TO THE LEFT!
Whimsy Finally started the game I've been waiting to see your reaction 😊❤
One of the best games I've played put in about 550 hrs on the psp back then😅
1:47:03 "I'm no good with people, please look after me" 😂😭
I know this is not the time yet but for MGSV I would want her to cosplay as “that” character.
Nobody tells her and be quite. 🤫
I see what you did there lol
Here we gooooooo. i love this
Yes!!! This is one of the games in the series i never got to play. Ive been wanting to watch a playthrough if this from you.
About time, Whimsy!
Yes Whimsy! This is, imo, the best MGS game
Paz is one of my favorite characters
Good call playing this, as this is canon to the story. Gameplay wise it's a bit different from the other games, and Metal Gear Solid V has some elements from it.
Portable Ops has some Frank Jaeger (Gray Fox) lore in there but I don't remember that much from it.
The name 🤣🤣🤣🤣.
Here we go! I'm hyped 👏😎
Making me want to play Peace Walker now! Can't wait for Volume 2 of the Master Collection
My favorite quebecer is back with another banger video!
LETS GOOOO ❤❤❤❤🎉 I just finished watching your mgs1 playthrough and half way done with your mgs2 one 😂
Someone else probably said this already, but don’t quit after the main storyline, we promise there’s more to do! Have fun!!!!
I love Peace Walker, even though it's little limited because of handheld, i hope you'll enjoy it.👍🙂
The HD collection was way better than PSP.. I loved the CQC on the PS3 controller
@@Holy_WraithThat's true, I meant limitations like unable to crawl, drag bodies, first person shooting etc., but yeah HD ps3 version is awesome.
@@fsolid836 The PS3 sure made my fight with ZEKE so much easier too.
I hope you have plenty of fun with the Outer Ops. They're easy to ignore or speed through, but my friend and I had a great time building our own narrative around the sorties and the continuing sagas of our Outer Ops units. Reading their bios and stats to come up with their individual motivations and personalities-it was a super fun way to amplify the connection with the MSF crew. =D
I played this on the X360. Good times! Hope you have a good time with this game!
Finally Peak Walker is here!
You can access the codec in the pause menu or you can make it replace the auto-aim button! It's not the same as the ones in the previous games though, it's much more quicker
12:40 What this is doing is for the game to determine whether you want your sticks inverted or not.
Oh nice cosplay options in this game too!.
Fun fact: Fulton recovery is a real thing!
You're totally ignoring what happened in the San Hieronymo Peninsula. Then again, so do most people. There's one more game between this and MGS3, more or less canonical, called MGS Portable Ops.

PEACE WALKEERRRR just finished it so i got mgsv definitive today for my birthday too
Hey Whimsy. It is not super important, but I wonder if you noticed, that the Title screen is a MGS version of an analogue TV test screen? You may be too young to remember CRT-TV's.😄
By the way, you didn't listen to the Peace Walker theme, in the title screen, right? You should, it absolutely kicks ass!🥰
I believe she is 30. I'm 26 and I remember having CRT's so I'm guessing she would too lol
Heck yeah! 🤙
There's a easter eggs in the game I would suggest looking at other areas before continuing the mission! You'll love it!
If anyone is interested in her Portable Ops Watch along, be aware she accidentally spoiled the cosplay. So yeah, spoiler warning if you don't want to know.😂
I'm not sure what you mean by that. I have not chosen any cosplays yet for Peace Walker, I'm not far enough in the game to make a choice. Or do you mean a previous cosplay I've done?
@WhimsyPsyche 😆 🕶 it was a joke from the stream you don't remember it's fine.
I really hope they remake this for the PS5. I miss helping new players in their first playthrough
Hearing you pronounce MSF correctly in French was something I thought I never needed
Hype hype its Whimsy Psyche!
42:01 snake will do not for paz just for peace because her name in Japan mean peace
26:36 that negotiator im assuming is Ocelot
MGS: Peace Walker + MGSV:Ground Zeroes + MGSV:Phantom Pain = MGS 5
INcase they put this with metal gear 4 and 5 on the next collection im always for seeing more batman spam but im not going to click on future metal gear soild videos cause of spoilers but have fun playing it
PW so good,yeah.
pretty good
I wonder if the servers to do multiplayer for this are still up or if it’s possible for at least some friends to still play. It would be awesome if so.
Yayyyyy
11:09 My beloved MSF ❤🥰
12:04 And one of the best gaming tutorials ever made. I love the drill instructor. Ok Whimsey, time to make MSF GREAT AGAIN!!!
PSP is pretty clunky, but I’d enjoy watching a cutscene reaction
We are so back guys!
kept us waiting, huh
You skipped Kazs other briefing files since you were only in the "missions" tab which only showed the fulton one, but you will likely return to them in future videos ^^
The scar will be explained later. Just play and have fun :)
😮
Are you using rpcs3 ?
Actually all of that was explained in MGS1 as well, it was just in that pesky manual and not in the game :)
She's finally playing PEAK Walker!!
Now, I absolutely know nothing about Peace Walker.
1:36:04 Probably its because the british lost that war?
If you want to understand what happened with big boss you must familiarize yourself with the events of the msx games. In fact if you dont do that youll not understand things on mgsv.
I have read the stories of MG1 and 2 straight from the master collection manuals! Is that what you mean by msx?
@WhimsyPsyche yes exactly! You're good then!
Ah yay let's go!!
Petition for Whimsy to change her channel name to 'WhimsyPsycheMantis'.🤓
They made the game "easier" because it was originally developed for the Playstation Portable (PSP).
They didn't want the player to twist his Fingers into a Pretzel, and possibly drop the precious Handheld.😉
That is also the reason why the missions are shorter, because you could be commuting / to save battery charge.
You still had to twist into a pretzel, depending which control scheme you used lol.
@hatad321 But compared to the "big" games, it was simplified.
Do you remember the ammount of buttons one had to press in MGS2, to get in First Person Mode, get on your toes, draw your gun, aim at the bomb-sensors, and shoot. Impressive stuff. But on a Handheld, better not.
Also the distance at which you could be spotted was reduced.
Kept us waiting, huh !!! 😄
Am I the only one who thinks we're currently living in the Metal Gear Solid 2 timeline 🤣😂😅😁😃😀🙂😐😶😶🌫️🫥
A video/cutscene of Phantom Pain will sufice. Smh
Mgs4r is the last game tha you have to play. ..
And cosplay of raiden mariachi was the best
So glad we're past the noncanon garbage! So stoked for this.
i got the 4 comics of metal gear solid 1 in german, there are also in that style.
1:40:17
After the Boss died, her scar came alive and slid off her body. It then went and attached itself to Big Boss's chest. It was a weird scene
damn, MGS V wouldve been so much better after 4 smh
Says no one ever.
WOOOOOOOO! SHE’S PLAYING PEACE WALKER! Ok, @WhimsyPsyche , while I think MGS2 has the best story, I think MGS: PW has the best cast, setting, and OST. The official theme song of this game is my favorite song of all time. In addition, I would like to add, just a suggestion, I think the trailer for PW is amazing
