If you play through her missions theres literally one where shes like captured and a soviet guy bends her over a trough and there is a cartoon unzipping sound effect while hes laboriously drowning her in the trough?? And then she stabs everyone in the fucking dick 100 times afterwards, in case kojimaâs amazing subtleties are lost on you. I cannot in good conscience tell anyone who isnât already a freak to play mgs5, let alone ground zeroes, because normal people would justifiably get mad at you for shit like that. it is my favorite kojima game to actually play though lol

i guess the stipulation i had in my head but didnât express was âwhich of his games could you skip the cutscenes and still be able to play coherentlyâ but yeah, Quiet is for sure the litmus test in that one

I bet a hundred people could play MGSV and not even notice the game had a story

I mean are we putting them in sensory deprivation tanks before making them play the intro or something? The game wastes no time in being like âhere is the storyâ and making a giant fiery mystery chase you.

I hate his music taste so much. like he has good taste for a GAMER but itâs like, I know too many people with actual taste to be mystified. I dunno I wish the Kojima trick worked on me but he doesnât seperate himself enough from the games. like the haha boobies egg guy is always there, looming, not making eye contact because heâs looking at my chest and thinking about words and deeds
I wouldnât have said anything if âis there a Kojima game for everyoneâ didnât come up, thereâs not!! I tried!!

I donât wanna be a killjoy, I PLAY ETRIAN ODYSSEY FOR FUCKS SAKE I just canât do it with this dudes games. but luckily more people I know like him than donât so I can at least understand what not-dummies get out of his work. I wanna fit in damnit

So I ended up freeing up some more time than I expected, put another couple hours into Death Stranding, was still in episode 2 (I just stole back a 3d printer from the thieves), had an hour left of free time and just could not make myself care to play any longer so I played the first hour of Yakuza 7 instead, despite it mostly being introductory stuff.
So yeah, the correct answer would have been âyeah you can just stop playingâ but at least I am fairly certain about it now. No clue what Episode 3 would have offered or if any Directorâs Cut differences popped up yet but I was getting absolutely nothing mechanically out of the experience.
Still thanks for all the advice, glad some of you enjoyed it at least!
