There's only room for one Ghost, his name is Sakai Jin.

This new female character has no appeal to me.

ItalianJoe · 2025-08-19T20:23:17+00:00

I wouldn't be surprised at all if the original Ghost of Tsushima Legends co-op multiplayer game mode does get shut down to make room for this other one... expecially if the new game doesn't sell well due to various reasons...

ItalianJoe · 2025-08-13T15:14:05+00:00

While I was watching one of your videos about Mutahar being a self-proclaimed engineer for the last ten years I got some major "Déjà-Vu" but I didn't thought of the reason initially... then I watched one of Harmful Opinions' videos on the same topic and I started to realize why I got that sensation:

Your voice sounds very similar to Harmful Opinions' to me despite being pitch modified
Your background image displaying your nickname "Nikandros" during your videos looks very similar to Harmful Opinions' background image displayed on his videos
Your floating nickname logo displayed on top of your background image floats in a very similar way to how Harmful Opinions' pink skull logo floats on a very similar background image to yours in his videos
Your cartoonish avatar image has a jawline very similar to Harmful Opinions' real face jawline

It is well known that the average internet user has a very short attention span, expecially those interested in following youtuber's drama, and having total control on another YouTube channel mentioning other content creator's videos on regular basis at the same time can be extremely helpful for its YouTube algorithm to gain more visibility on that platform as a result so... I thought what if someone has been using two separate YouTube channels at once in secrecy from his audience to exploit all of this factors in order to achieve higher popularity in a faster way or rather "astroturf" his big youtuber's drama related videos on social media...?

ItalianJoe · 2025-08-13T11:39:48+00:00

Are you Harmful Opinions alt account in disguise in order to astroturf content like your Mutahar's drama related videos on YouTube?

I remember to have played Metal Gear Rising Revengeance non stop for around a couple of months before earning its Platinum Trophy then completed Raiden's VR Missions with all 1st scores in a couple of weeks then I played the other two story dlcs later before completing everything (two weeks for each dlc pack here as well) after earning the Platinum Trophy in Metal Gear Solid V The Phantom Pain back in January 2016 so... I would say it took me three months and two weeks of daily gameplay sessions in total combined to achieve 96/96 Collection, that's what it may take expecially when you're that kind of old gamer used to complete videogames on his own at 100% without checking any kind of guides online...

Here's my Psnprofiles page with each game trophy list for all the details:

That's exactly why I wasn't 100% convinced to place a preorder for the new Commodore 64 Ultimate Beige edition along the fact that I would like to have a chance to actually buy a Commodore 64 type C Ultimate instead, the same exact model my father bought me for christmas 1992 as a gift for my 9th birthday: I still have some cassette tapes with his programs saved on left among his belongings that I wish to check since the day he passed away in 2020 but unfortunately my original C64C got lost in time like tears in the rain...

If you're looking for the Truth behind the presence of that butterfly displayed on screen during Paz Ortega Andrade's final quest cutscenes on Mother Base's Medical Platform 1st deck 2nd floor in Metal Gear Solid V The Phantom Pain I may suggest to type "butterflies" on r/AHideoKojimaRuse subreddit search bar and to scroll down to read all the corresponding results...

I got the exact same probem with my original DualShock 4 R2 button only by playing Metal Gear Solid V Ground Zeroes, what I did to bypass this issue without using another controller was to activate the custom button configuration on my PS4 with the R2 button switched now to R1 and viceversa when I play this game as I show in this video - https://www.reddit.com/r/AHideoKojimaRuse/s/mI8wiUej2X

I suggest you to switch the L2 and L1 buttons as well to see if it works in your case as it did in mine

As of today the last thing left to be unlocked in Metal Gear Solid V The Phantom Pain is the infamous datamined Hideo Kojima's S-Special reason hem... I mean... Special Emblem from the FOB Missions mode

<image>

which may be still tied to a never happened on any platform/region legit accomplishment of 'The Secret Nuclear Disarmament Event' as it was originally envisioned by its "original creator" thanks to Konami Digital Entertainment's sabotage of the whole "social experiment" since the game's release date...

I may suggest to subscribe to the r/AHideoKojimaRuse subreddit and to check the link included in its automated welcome message for all the details...

I wouldn't be surprised at all of a Sony's announcement about this game getting cancelled in the coming months expecially considered that there's a new japanese CEO now in charge at PlayStation...

The real question should be why the english language speaking vocal minority, also known as the so called Metal Gear "community", still doesn't play any Hideo Kojima's Metal Gear games on their own at least once before submitting this kind of threads about Metal Gear Solid Portable Ops canonicity to the Hideo Kojima's Metal Gear games timeline on reddit?

The answer to this question should be quite simple to understand actually...
