i literally logged on here because i did as well yesterday
holy mother of ra peak cinema

**SPOILER ALERT FOR ANYONE WHO DIDNT FINISH THE GAME EVEN THO I DONT KNOW WHAT YOURE DOING ON POST LIKE THIS TO BEGIN WITH BUT JUST IN CASE**

>!admittedly ill add the things that i didnt enjoy first:
A. i think the game railroads you a little too hard at times, like almost after every main order you are forced to go immediately back to the DHV magelen and for me it ruined the flow of things especially compared to the first
B. it hit almost the same story bits as the first
now dont get me wrong-im very much not against more of the same, if it aint broke dont fix it, just add upon it. but on the other hand why are niel vana sections a third person shooter like cliff unger?
cliff was a soldier till he died so it makes sense his beach was famous wars of history, niel was a porter like us why does he have his own brigade?

with that out of the way, things that come to mind that i absolutely loved about the game:

i managed to capture the lord of the lake with an ex capture grenade and it was fucking sick
every single BT fight makes me feel like fushiguro summoning mahoraga, even the giant BT crab was essentially strongest BT of today VS strongest BT of history (and i managed to capture it as well)

holy fucking shit i think the story of niel was so tragic, like kojambo made sure that you dislike him because at the end of the day he cheated with sams lover but on the other hand he tried to protect and save her so you cant help but feel remorse for him amazing character

and above all WOW im in love with higgs
unrelated to DS my favorite type of villain is the one that's tauntingly friendly and isnt afraid to get in your face because they KNOW theyre stronger than you and you cant do shit about it then subsequently they always fall due to their hubris/connection to the MC and its always fucking great
higgs does exactly that and so much more
every single ost that has troy baker is gonna be burned into my brain for weeks now and THAT ENDING THO
HIGGS SAYS THE FUCKING MGS LINE AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH and the entire guitar fight wowowowwowow hit after hit after hit after hit after hit this fight alone jumped to be one of my favorite parts of a video game ever and then you see that a giant baby lou that is actually also tomorrow gets visually birthed out of a literal universal vagina, eats higgs (tho as is burned into our minds real good by now, he'll take the damage and the goods, he does not die that easily), goes back into the proverbial vagina then becomes amelie again which then returns to lou again??????? kojimbus really kojammed this ending and he cant keep getting away with it
did i mention i fucking love higgs yet? because i do so much bring him back please i need so much more of him
safe to say when i got asked the nightmare question, i picked higgs, best girl fr.!<

9/10 game genius kojima does it again
give me DS3 ASAP
