Annoyingly bad games

[Zero Kirby]

I should note that I like Metal Gear Solid V as well, in terms of gameplay it's the zenith of the series. The open-world design, stealth mechanics, and base management all coalesce together into an excellent whole, where collecting excellent soldiers for your base can often dictate your infiltration's path - the open-world design lets you scope things out, gather intel, and then plan a route. I don't even mind the replacement of many cutscenes with cassette tapes, letting you absorb story details while exploring the world at your own pace. The foundations for a perfect Metal Gear game are here.

It's just that the story is garbage and also literally unfinished (not that finishing it would make it not garbage) and Konami is Konami, and Konami is the worst.
