Okay, if you whine about spoilers, "Ending" and "MGSV" is kinda a obvious spoiler alert. But because i'm OK I'll put my post in a spoiler tag. Also, if you think you have beat the game and have not beat mission 46, you have not beaten the game
[spoiler]Am I the only one disappointed by the story? Yes the whole "You are actually the Medic" shit sorta fits with the lore, but it's cheap. I wanted a game about Big Boss, I wanted to see Outer Heaven be created, I wanted to see why Kaz leaves Big Boss, and I wanted to see Big Boss go nuclear. Not the Venom Snake. It's kinda made me mad when I learned that the guy who I associated with Big Boss is not Big Boss, and has nothing to do with Big Boss.
The whole Parasite thing was alright I guess, but it really kinda got kicked out when you realize it has nothing to do with the other MGS's.. Granted the quarantine zone mission was great and depressing. I had to kill my favorite Diamond Dog, but this scene kinda faded once I realize that it's not Big Boss who's doing this.
Oh yeah, they killed off Skullface too early, they hyped him up in GZ, then you only see him in like 5 cutscenes before he dies
And lets not forget the cut-content! They cut out the entire Mission 51, which you can search up if you haven't found out about it yet
So yeah, I'm kinda angry, mostly because the lack of story in my Metal Gear, and how the game I expected to be about Big Boss, is not about Big Boss. Though I kinda like Venom Snake, he actually cares about his men and goes to extreme hieghts such as going alone in the Quarantine Zone to prevent more members from dying. But Imma end this rant now [/spoiler]
Though I seriously doubt that a lot of you have not beat the game yet.

Edited by Nephilim713: 9/13/2015 11:43:18 PMThis is a spoiler thread so I will not mark spoilers. If you read this, it is your fault. I am quite possibly the biggest MGS fan ever and I had a HELL of a ride with this game. It was so perfect until the repeat missions in chapter 2. I started to think to myself.... oh Konami, you damn -blam!-ers! Honestly, chapter 2 only has like 5 story missions. Big Boss is my FAVOURITE CHARACTER in the whole series and at the end you’re just a medic. Do you know how I felt? I felt bad, bad, like everything I have done was for nothing. Skull Face was SO EVIL, but he gets sent off halfway through the game. I really didn't think he deserved it even if Liquid is more evil by default. I CRIED, ok, I didn't cry but I had tears when Quiet (Stefanie Joosten) started speaking English to Pequod. She did not even bother waking up Venom and at that point she was pretty much dead because of the English strain of the vocal cord parasites she had insider her. Her lungs were burnt, but apparently, the damage was enough to kill her. This final part where she dies and says "I am Quiet, the Absence of words" had me really down. That part is very emotional. I was much attached to Quiet because I love Stefanie Joosten. She is such an amazing woman, beautiful, educated, etc. She did a hell of a good job with Quiet and when she started singing in the background, the tears just came down. Now that Quiet died, I am left UPSET as hell that I cannot get her back unless I restart the game. I am glad though... her death is canon and mgs story is something I need in my life. I'm most angry about the cut content like Liquid's boss fight in Sahelanthropus.... and I'm even more angry that chapter 3 was cut as well. You do not know how bad I felt when the game ended and even Paz is a -blam!-ing phantom. The phantom pain is a huge troll and does the job well to make you feel like shit. The gameplay is easily a 10, but the story is weaker than previous MGS entries, yet still emotional. But I wanted a BB game.... I wanted another one so bad and make Diamond Dogs huge.... but even that is worthless because I'm Venom, not Big Boss.
