Was this not rumoured for five years?

[ElectriCole 5]

Bruh, MGS timeline is more confusing than KHs lmao

[Otti#8624 26]

It really isn't, it's so much simpler

MG3 > Peacewalker > Ground Zero/Phantom Pain > MGS1 > MGS2 > MGS4

Not sure how true this is but I heard the original Metal Gear games are canon too and those take place before MGS 1

yeahhh
whiIe it can be a bit iffy to teII which goes where if you pIay the games in order of reIease, it becomes mostIy apparent if you just

Iook at the stories of each game

what does the traiIer have 100 miIIion views on facebook or something 😭

[raiden94 15]

# finally.

[Liftea 15]

So if Metal Gear story is confusing I assume I can just start with Delta?

[raiden94 15]

NO.

just

start with either the 2 MSX games or MGS1. please. I beg of you.

[Otti#8624 26]

Sure why not

[Otti#8624 26]

It's like starting with BBS

Better to go by release order but it's fine to start there

[Liftea 15]

are the remasters good?

or should I go with emulator?

[raiden94 15]

NEVER START WITH THE PREQUELS.

Personally I'd say HDMI covert that shit with a PS2 and up the brightness but, the remasters are good now.

Emulation might still have some better ironed out details tho- DaZ would know more than me.

His frequency is 141.52.

People make way too much of a big deal with this

Like I said earlier, chronological is better but this is fine too

MGS3 is a very solid game on it's own

[raiden94 15]

Otti plz.

Prequels often:

Spoil future plot points

Take the mystery out of plot points that at one point were mysteries

Often times since gameplay is expanded than prior entries people playing the next chronological game run the risk of not liking them

There's often tonal differences that it feels jarring going to the next titles.

Often times there's retcons that mess with things they didn't need to

It ruins how others perceive the story.

i.e.: Crisis Core- that game caused an entire generation to misunderstanding FF7's story because they played CC first, and misunderstand crucial plot points, speCIFICALLY about Cloud.

Many times the games that come later all revolve around synching up around said prequel. Like how every Yakuza game after 0 has constant call backs and references to it- more than any other game. That game also impacted the tone of that franchise going forward, specifically the side content.

tl;dr, don't start with prequels.

[0blivion0athkeeper 4]

And Crisis Core Reunion was a bad remake.

[raiden94 15]

that too lmao

Inb4 mfs start complaining about gimmicks

Looks like the connector people were worried about is doesnt protrude away from the system so i dont think its gonna break that easily

[Liftea 15]

that's one type of gimmick that isn't bad

[Muki 2]

Yeaj but you never know with people
