I didn’t finish it and I’ve been meaning to go back to it, but the time I spent with it was pretty nice. You can’t deny the sheer balls in making a AAA accurate walking sim.
I love the game, but there’s no more depth to the walking than holding both straps and slowing down on rough terrain. Ironically, Kojima always puts a lot of effort into gun mechanics and then goes out of his way to discourage you from using them.
Something especially frustrating was that every gun had a blood ammo type for attacking BTs but the best method for nearly the entire game was to sneak and throw blood grenades instead. Then you get the cuff blade thing and the sneaking is still better. The only real depth to it is that I learned you can intentionally trigger the fights to farm chirillium.
I stopped playing too. I really loved the first part of the game when it was just about traversing the world, doing courier work and avoiding threats, but I quit when it became a game with ‘boss battles’
The trailers looked so cool. Then I watched gameplay and I was like “hard pass.”
It was a weirdly addictive game.

It was kinda too scary for me. That’s why I stopped playing, a bit after meeting Conan O’Brien I think.

It’s the only game that has ever made traversing the world fun to me. I really enjoyed it!
Lmao the gameplay was the good part. Everything else was ass.
