Why is there so much kino, yet so much garbage?

the gameplay is excellent so that is all that matters.
Plus the ending is great.

>the gameplay is excellent
Yeah, all 20 minutes of it.

Because Hideo is a genius but Kojima is a hack

Same gameplay/cutscene ratio as 3.

Absolute bullshit

>MGS4
>play

That's the best part though. If you look past the retcon of a retcon of a retcon it's a contester for the best ending in videogames.

Why lie?

>perfect gameplay
>nothing to really make great use of it past act 2 because gimmick chapters and hour long cutscenes

Spite for fans

This game would have been perfect if Sonny, Otacaon, Meryl and Johnny were removed from the game. They represent all the shitty long cutscenes that everyone hated. The cut scenes without them were all kino.

The retcon isn't the bad part about the ending. It's the fake out of Snake dying, and the fact that it's not succint, even after all the hours of cutscenes in a row that happened before it.

Sonny barely shows up in cutscenes. Otacon is whatever. The worst character in MGS4 by far is Naomi.

Sunny is the only ray of sunshine in this miserable game

Sony money and KojiPro talent can create a good game despite a retarded hack leading the project.

So much garbage? I disagree

Any Cutscene Sonny or Otacon are in is a bad cutscene. Probably Naomi too because she's always in the same cutscenes with them.
Honestly, the plane cutscenes were half the problem.

>wanting to remove the biggest bro in the entire series

The plane cutscene outright tell you to skip them. You've got no one to blame but yourself.

metal gear franchise is the ultimate vidya pleb filter. It takes a keen intellect to be able to understand the complex plot and sociopolitical commentary.

The cutscene between act 3 and 4 is literally longer than all the gameplay combined

>Sonny, Otacon

no way no way

>Meryl and Johnny
Yeah fair enough, I agree with you there

You mean boring cuck?

You did get the Rabbit badge, right?

Throw yourself into a wood chipper retard

>otacon bawling like a bitch ass nigga for minutes for about 5 minutes
I'm glad the greatest scene from MGS1 and 2 returns in 4

Bro, if the plane cut scenes were removed the game would have been infinitely better. That was pretty much all sonny, otacon and naomi

>but but he's a dweeb just like me!

He was justified in 2 since it was his little sister(who probably wanted his dick too)

SUNLIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIGHT

The plane cut scenes were not so much of an issue compared to how Act 3 and Act 4 were basically turned into cutscenes completely. If Act 3, 4, and 5 actually offered some decent gameplay the plane cutscenes would not be an issue.

>first two and a half hours of gameplay
>"so much kino"

Yeah, no.

>hating the kino cutscenes
>liking the shit cutscenes

Anybody else here have the strange experience of MGS4 being your first mgs game? It's still good, and it definitely hooked me onto the series, but I wish I'd played one of the others first just so that some of MGS4's constant referencing could've hit the mark.

Useful in getting the big boss mask.

MGS4 has exactly two kino cutscenes, the opening and final battle with Ocelot
Everything else is terrible
