I been saying this. It's a great game when you just play it for stealth and messing with the options but structurally and narrative wise it was lacking. Funny how people ignored the review event.
Exactly. When I was saying this some dudes would claim I'm hating lol. MGSV should've been knocked down a peg.To give some credit, it has the best gameplay the series has even seen, hell it ruined most stealth games for me. I don't even think the next Splinter Cell, if Ubisoft decides to do another one, will top this gameplay wise.
It's just that the story is bad, especially for a Metal Gear game, the open world wears out it's welcome after central Africa, the lack of imaginative bosses the series is known for and worst of all, the game is literally incomplete, like a whole chapter was cut out that included the final boss.
And then there's the microtransactions.

Buy Ground Zeroes, you can pick it up real cheap these day. Treat it as demo, swerve V if you're not feeling it.
. Game peaked at the intro. 2/3 worth of content was missing. Nobody should be giving it anymore than a 5-6/10.
