MGS2 has the coolest vibe

It absolutely nails this unique I dunno, utilitarian atmosphere. Big Shell has this effortless industrial charm, the kind you can’t quite put into words. They probably didn't even think about it, but there's a particular allure in that industrial aesthetic: the exposed beams, steel frameworks, weathered surfaces, the vast expanses between them. The muted grey-blue and rusty orange tones of the early mortning give everything this sense of melancholy. Big Shell feels very grand and quiet; you're up above the world, surrounded by wind, open skies, and the hum of machinery. The stillness of the morning amplifies the feeling of solitude, too. I really like it, it's been 75 years and nothing else has quite captured this vibe again for me.

We just say kino here pal.

this isn't Anon Babble, friend

yeah i really love the visual aesthetic for this game. plus its got a great story and super fun gameplay. it's why 2 is my favorite in the series and the one i have replayed the most

That's thanks to Shinkawa's style. Death Stranding is pretty similar.

All my friends on reddit say that it’s absolute cinema!!!

Hate you goddamn Anon Babbleniggers.

yeah

very liminal indeed

why is it so orange. for visibility? was orange paint super cheap that week?

It's because the music in this game is on a whole another level.

I wish we could explore the rest of Shell 2

Death Stranding is pretty similar

Yeah I always wished for that. Wasn't there some extra place in Substance? it's been so long I can't remember.

There were extra missions where you play as Snake on Big Shell but no new places

but no new places

tsk tsk tsk

I can hear these pictures

This is what the majority of MGSV looked like thoughbeit At least if you played when it had an active online player base that wasn't cheating

This is what the majority of MGSV looked like

this is what zoomers actually believe

Great music and sound design. Even the menu noises sound cool.

Xhe really doesn't know

I'm sorry you missed out anon, there truly never will be anything as Kino upgrading your army, raiding other bases, and defending your base from low tier trash, hopefully Kojima will be able to make MGS5 one day.

Try playing an actually good MGS online game, kiddo, like MGO2, instead of that awful slop.

MGO

Good

No thanks, it's anything but good even in V, so i'd rather stick with the actual online PVP that's build into the main game and not the side slop

SNEEEEK?

FOBS is fucking dead now, I haven't been invaded in months.

Go back to Anon Babblezoomy

I just like hearing the seagulls
games in the early 2000s really had a knack for anything near/in water

I wouldn't even see why FOB's would be worth playing now considering the majority of higher end FOB's are filled with cheated soldiers and shit like that

They probably didn't even think about it, but there's a particular allure in that industrial aesthetic

Nigga they had artists spend sleepless nights deciding the exact right shade of orange.
Didn't think about it my ass. Do you know how deliberate the fucking Metal Gear games are?

dasryte

nigga they [my headcanon]

True. Beach gen.

If MGS5 is incomplete then MGS4 is incomplete. And MGS2 and MGS1. All these games have significant missing content.

hopefully Kojima will be able to make MGS5 one day.

he doesn't want to
the guy has been walking around holding a "I don't want to make MGS anymore" sign over his head since 2002

[my headcanon]

look up what happened with the ice bucket in MGS2, subhuman

please explain "legally distinct" Solid Snake in Death Stranding 2 and the allegations about Physint being a Metal Gear in disguise

75 years

Huh?
He's right. The only thing he's wrong about is that there is no "orange" colors in DS

dumb zoomer

MGS-reminiscent iconography being put in Uber Eats Delivery Simulator 2 is evidence that Kojimbo is gagging to make more MGS, despite a well-documented fatigue with the series going back decades

I disagree

t. the same man that promised he'd eat a squirrel if Bloodborne was a PS4 exclusive and never delivered
t. also the nigger that claimed Bloodborne would never get emulated, would eat shit on livestream if it ever got emulated, and also never delivered

?

I'm quoting two ancient Anon Babble posts almost word for word
all I'm saying is I expect Kojima to pull a "my MGS fatigue went away a while ago and I'd like to collaborate with Konami on a new MGS game" and you should too in case you don't want to be disappointed

MGSV was utter slop so she shouldn't be allowed anywhere near an MGS game ever again

MGSV was the best one

No they definitely are aware of how good it looks that’s why they tried to do the same look with mother base in mgsv
But mgs2 art style is completely different so it would never look the same

spot the zoomer who only played Vslop

she

I didn't know Kojimbo tranxitioned, good on xer!
and I disagree, I can give MGSV shit for lots of thing, being slop isn't one of them 2bh

I agree but why are you typing like a fucking faggot?

Megaslop is more like it.

I thought the opposite, MGS2 map is boring sterile and the same basically the entire game. I kept wishing for a change of scenery

can't read anything that isn't green text

kys zoomnigger

yeah

They probably didn't even think about it

you are so dumb

I fucking despise the Big Shell. Such an ugly place thats insanely boring. The tanker was less than a quarter of the size and had more atmosphere than just ugly orange and generic looking warehouse interiors. Not to mention the egregious amount of backtracking you are forced to do but it gets a pass because Kojimbles. MGS2 has the worse setting of the entire franchise.

Agreed OP, 2 was my first MGS so maybe I'm biased but the eerie sterility tempered by the warmth of the morning sun made me love just chilling out and exploring up to the Fatman fight. Then again I also love the somewhat similar atmosphere HL and Portal have so it might just be that.

I fucking love the Big Shell. Such a beautiful place thats insanely fun. Way better that the shitty tanker. MGS2 has the best setting of the entire franchise.

MGS2 would have been better if they didn’t make you play as a twink faggot for most of the game. Zoomers call it the best one since they relate.

They also never go outside so obviously one that the one that takes place mostly inside would be their favorite.

The game starting in the morning and ending in the night so the day actually progresses along with the story makes the whole experience even more kino

Are the MGS games worth buying on Steam or are there better ways to play them on PC?

>can't read anything that isn't green text

Not at all. But if you type "It absolutely nails this unique I dunno, utilitarian atmosphere." you should be turned into dog food for being a limpwristed fag, that's all I'm saying.
