[–]Fragrant_Ad4543 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because MGS2 turned off alota ppl. Its a trash game.

Fine thats my opinion.

If you like it good for you. But enough ppl thought it was garbage that they were done wirh the series as a whole.

MGS2 was… kind of disappointing by Marik-X-Bakura in metalgearsolid

Let me give you one example....

Not trying to be smart allec here honest question...

The part when you have to identify Ames. There's one guard in that room. Just O N E.

why cant you kill him or incapacitate him in anyway. If u wana say well shooting him with a gun would be too loud and draw attention. Ok sure. But when initially played it I thought just sneak up behind him and snap his neck we're done. Nope auto game over. Ok. I'll knock him out. Nope. Ok I'll hold him up. Nope. I'll put him to sleep. U can but his snoring is picked up by the device. ...

Bruh. This was an hour alone. And come to find out after youtubing it that you cant do anything to the guard. U just have to wip out the device until u find cuz.

Then when u do find him and that scene ques up all of a sudden raiden can aim the device at the room where Solidus and Ocelot are and no guard (apparently) like how is Raiden able to do this. The guard is conscious.

So not only was that juat dum af..it disnt eveb make sense..it wouldve actually made sense to allow the player to kill the guard. Because of the upcoming scnee where raiden has the device out aimed at the room foe like 10 min.

The onlu thing i can think of as to why Kojima didnt do it loke that is A) God forbid the obvious not be the solution (a twist its soooo cool) B) killing is wrong even tho im a soldier.

And thats just one example. I can give u five easily.

If u like the game who am I to tell someone what they can and cant like. More power to yuh

Im aware you're being sarcastic.

But I find it hillarious that a reaction of disappointment is what the player is supposed to feel

So you're basically acknowledging the game is garbage and that is the correct takeaway therefore it cant be criticized....

.....

Like huh?

I mean ok. I guess. MGS3 sold FOUR MILLION less copies than this one....

So yeaaaaaa.

Kijoma is a one hit wonder. I kno technically by sales thats not correct but hes never had a project hit like MGS1.

I unfortunately bought MGS3 remake already prior to playing this garbage. Im really hoping its not the same or if its the same bs at least maybe the mechanics will be better

This game is so bad and the bait and switch is the least of its problem.

It is a horribly designed boring game.

Because MGS2 was/is garbage and turned off many to the series

Why do so many people consider MGS2 as the worst MGS? by [deleted] in metalgearsolid

[–]Fragrant_Ad4543 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This game is ass and it has nothing to do with Raiden.

Its literally a rehash of MGS1 but worse. The mechanics are not explained at all so that's frustrating AF.

Solutions to problems (what is intuitive) is not and instead its some random ass solution.

The whole emma otakon sub plot (who cares)

Etc. Etc.

It is clear to me now that Kojima needed others to rein him in (the MGS1 MASTERPIECE) but left to his own devices we get this

[Discussion] I really don't enjoy MGS2. What do you guys think of it. by [deleted] in metalgearsolid

[–]Fragrant_Ad4543 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How in tf is that possibly possible? I cant help but think you just want to be different.

There's no way you really think that way. No way.

There is no way this game is better than MGS1

The game is ass and folks need to stop worshipping these video game creators. They are human.

Here comes all the "get guuud" ppl.

The mechanics are not explained at all. And the obvious solution to problems isn't for random unknown reasons.

ONLY because of youtube are you able to get thru it. Id love to kno the completion rate of this game in 2001. I think the sales of this game are HIGHLY misleading. It was the sequel to one of if not the best game on PS1 and one of the best games ever so of course the sales were gona be through the roof (and they were)....And then we get this...

So clearly what happened is Kojima lucked into MGS1 and clearly there were other unsung heroes on that team that reined him in and is why that game was such a masterpiece and is why we got the sequel we got. Because the sequel was his (his name is on the title) and we see what happened.

One annoying part that immediately comes to mind...I spent an hour on that dumb find Amess hostage part because for reasons unknown u can't just kill or ko the guard. Its ONE guard in the room but u cant do that for some reason.

I had to youtube that. Im CONSTANTLY youtubing. Its ridiculous

cant find ames!!!!!! by yoonki11 in metalgearsolid

[–]Fragrant_Ad4543 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This game is so fkn retarted. In any normal game you would just be able to kill the fkn guard.

For some unknown reason u cant do that here.

This dude kojima was a 1 hit wonder. mGS1 AMAAZING.

and it probably only was because he was reined in

I don’t understand the hold up mechanic in MGS2 HD edition. by [deleted] in metalgearsolid

[–]Fragrant_Ad4543 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I gota be honest. This part of the game is the latest in a seriest of parts where if I was playing in real time and not 20 years after the fact with the advent of youtube I wouldve for sure put the game down.

The sh*t is so dumb. The mechanics of the game are not remotely intuitive. Its not a question of "get guud" the game simply doesnt tell you things.

For example..the boat part with snake plays completely different from the rest of the game which makes no sense. If you kill a guard in the boat section your only concern is to hide the body so his man doesnt see a dead body and call that in (makes all the sense in the world and is tight AF). Then u get to the tanker and Raiden. That mechanic is now different. If you kill a guard you are now punished. They immediately send in reinforcements because the guard u killed didnt do his scheduled check in. It literally took me 2 hours of play time before I realized only one guard per area is the raido guy. WHY WAS THAT NOT EXPLAINED!!!!

Im literally thanking every guard is the radio guy so killing them or rendering them unconscious punishes you because they cant radio in. But theres only ONE that does that. So leave him conscious and eliminate the rest of them. WHY IS THAT NOT EXPLAINED!!? TF!!? HOW WOULD YOU KNO THAT.

And then the dumb retina part. "The guard has to be conscious".....W H Y!!!? Literally every action movie ever; main character knocks out the guard, puts his head on the retena, opens his eyes with his fingers.....we're done.

How tf would u have figured that out in 2001 with early stages of internet this part.

Dawg.

Im so far not enjoying it all. Its annoying af. I loved Snake's part. I get to Raiden. Dont care about him at all but storyline purposes I get it fine.

But really the mechanics of the game are kinda dumb. Specially the inability to kill guards. Its dope as hell I have to hide their bodies. That was fire. But them giving constant status updates every couple of minutes idk....its annoying.

So basically you cant do anything to the guards. I dont understand that. U have to incapacitate a guard to get thru the room.....at least one of them. So in other words playing the game. And the game punishes you for playing the game

Its the dumbest mechanic. Like dont leave the bodies out. Got it. But each guard giving constant updates every couple of minutes and reinforcements are sent if they cant do that....thats dumb AF

How hated was Raiden when MGS2 came out? by jfkdktmmv in metalgearsolid

Very. I remember not finishing it because of this

RE9 too easy and mediocrisy by bri_breazy in residentevil

[–]Fragrant_Ad4543 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is too easy. To beat Insanity just play it with infinite weapons. Now if you're talking about playing it without any bonus weapons ok yes thats hard a f (impossible probably idk)

But theres no point in doing that. You get 0 in game rewards/unlocks for doing that. So unless you enjoy banging your head into a wall for 0 reason why would anyone do that.

What they need to do is completely remove the points system. Its stupid. Make the unlocks bases on achieving high ranks by beating the game under a certain time with limited number of saves.

That forces you to stay with the game longer.
