Playing through MGS V, I fucking love this series and this game but ngl, I can’t help but think so much of MGS is nonsense, which I’m totally fine with.

But I haven’t really done a deep dive into the story or it’s commentary, so it’d be cool if someone more uhh analytically inclined could explain this shit to me if it’s worth explaining.

Edit: really cool to play in Afghanistan, not cool to be killing Soviet soldiers

However the politics are not "bad" in any of the games. Kojima operates on the astral plane, knowing the future before it happens (see MGS2 and the memes, Death Stranding and COVID).

I love how rising also predicted the future by the sheer power of being a metal gear game even without Kojima's involvement.
