The Skulls

they're !zombies

Seriously
You literally have to watch meryls ass in mgs

Barely anything involving foxhound is its greatest crime

that's what made the game so good

why were there four of each? I think it wouldve been better to fight one each and then a final fight with all four, having four of each was a little strange.

what parasites create dimension portals?

no, but I thought it was a bit ditracting
I'm also not a big fan of Quiet, she has the body of a fridge
fair point
can't blame it all on Nanoma- excuse me, PARASITES SON

you're not smart enough to understand the joke there

men are generally slaves to their biology, so forcing the player into snake's POV wherein he loses his composure is funny- this is supposed to be some stone-cold genetically-modified supersoldier and yet he's completely lost his focus because of some random woman.

Holy shit I forgot these guys even existed and they were the only boss fights in the game.

I think a greater crime is that Konami didn't try creating anything worthwhile with the MGS5' s engine and assets
We could've easily had more maps and tons of story missions developed by the rest of Kojima productions AFTER Hideo quit

Boss fights are the weakest part of any MGS games I've played so far
they're memorable but they're also a pain in the ass due to the clunky controls
I find it funny how MGS5 has the most decent gameplay, yet it's boss fighs are the weakest
t played MGS1, 2, PW and 5

Nothing to do with ridiculousness, retard. You play a one dimensional character that has like 2 lines in the entire game and even other characters have almost zero dialogue. Returning characters somehow have their personalities altered or deleted entirely.

did you ask the same thing for raiden?
did you ask the same thing for vamp?
did you ask the same thing for solid snake tigh skinsuit and firm butt?

It's pretty much a meme to explain why the game was a disappointment while whitewashing Kojima after 5 years of development (7, if we add Fox Engine development)
Mission 51 was supposed to be DLC in the first place.
Battle Gear was cut because of balance.
Snake had a lot of recorded lines, like when firing guys from Mother Base similar to Peace Walker, which was cut because Kojima really liked Mad Max and silent protagonist.
Chico was supposed to survive the crash.
Also sheep costume was planned.

MGSV is fucking soulless, even more so than Peace Walker. At least that game "dared" to give us several unique mecha and vehicle bosses after so many missions. What were the bosses in MGSV again?

>Flaming Volgin
>The Skulls
>Sahelanthropus

Was there anything else?

>Was it ever explained who these guys are?
VOCAL CORD PARASITES
Do they have any sort of backstory or significance towards the lore of the MGS games?
no

you fight eli on the boat for a bit but it's more of a story thing

>Was it ever explained who these guys are?
no. Part of XOF's shtick is that we don't really know who they are or where they operate out of, and it's the same with the Skulls. We don't know who they were, how exactly they came to be or what lab they crawled out of. IMO it adds to their mystique, but in a game with a ton of loose ends already I kinda wish they were fleshed out a bit more

are you retarded? did you not play the game? they're thoroughly explained over and over. XOF injected these guys with specific strains of parasites to turn them into supersoldiers.

>Play the fuck out of Ground Zero
>Start up MGSV as soon as it unlocks
>Create a character
>Watch a female assassin fuck up killing a literal cripple who woke up from a coma a couple minutes ago
>Shoots the help but doesn't shoot her target
>Gets beat up, set on fire, and thrown out of a window
>Is fine, retrieved later by Skullface despite being on fire, given super powers for no reason
>Long boring crawling section
>That you have to replay for a second time with literally no difference
>Child Psychomantis for no reason
>Giant flaming whale for no reason
>Fire Volgin for no reason
>Go from Crippled Coma patient to Cyborg Muscle Jesus within a couple days

What a fucking mess of a game. I was hyped as fuck for this game and I was already in full fucking Damage control at that point.

sounds like a great game desu

MGSV and Mass Effect 3 combined is IMO what made Zig Forums so cynical. Imagine being burned that hard TWICE within the span of three years.

you know it never ticked well with me that Kaz got handed to the Soviets by the Skulls, it just doesn't add up.

or any of the mgs4 girl-team bosses

Except MGSV is actually good and MGSfags are just being drama queens for years

>Except MGSV is actually good
No, it isn't. I know you're a dumb zoomer with zero attachment to the rest of the franchise, but it is a terrible Metal Gear game.

What the first ones had them ?

ESL?

kojima overdoing the sexualization so much is so cringey that it hits negative levels of cringe and becomes based

post your MGSV stats

Yeah you get these whacky set pieces and story bits and then you spend all your time just shimmying in the fucking desert and africa/also a desert knocking people out till fill up your fucking huge pointless empty base so your numbers go up and you can unlock better ways to knock people out to fill up your base. Also the Dog you get 5 minutes into free roam that wall hacks everything for no reason sure makes the game fun. Of course its optional to turn that off just like the Quick time events and all the other broken shit. I don't know why because the game heavily rewards you for abusing the quick time events and being lethal with S ranking in missions.

>ESL
Neck yourself curryjogger

how doesn't it add up? The Soviets collaborated with XOF up until their betrayal during the game's climax.

it was actually best way to explain marvel level super powers in mgs3

Your post made zero sense, I'm asking if you're a dumb ESL.

>it was actually best way to explain
No, here's an idea. Don't fucking explain it. MGS4 got shit for exactly this, explaining away everything in MGS2 with nanomachines.

>Featuring. The Skulls Unit
Why? I would've liked to have them actually surprise me since that would be more fun to deal with

It was about them being Supernatural powers. hence The Sorrow, you dipshit.

Vocal chord parasites.

This was probably my biggest gripe with V. I 100% don't get the boner it had for retconning MGS3 in ways that didn't make any sense. Pain could control bees because wolbachia. Fury had inhuman pain tolerence because wolbachia. But we'll ignore that Sorrow can talk to ghosts and that Volgin can control electricity. We'll also throw in that XOF was secretly helping Naked Snake behind the scenes the entire time. It honestly made no sense aside from building up le spoopy skullman and his group as these shadow entities that went absolutely fucking nowhere.

Yes, I can cum to this. If only it focused more on their ridiculous, perfect abs as well as their tits and ass and pale, pale skin and black lips.

>Snake had a lot of recorded lines
you can still find them on youtube and they are really well don. Shame you don't hear any in-game.
>like when firing guys from Mother Base similar to Peace Walker
any links? Sounds intrigueing
is mgs5 the only game with the same aesthetic as your picture?
The game unironically becomes better if you turn off snake's freeze-time powers and don't use D-dog
Also you can play as other people, which is pretty cool.
Kinda wish you could upgrade the stats of a combat team member if you do enough side missions with them.
And I also hate how they basically turned a bunch of side missions into heavily padded "story" missions with 30 seconds of dialogue explaining shit. We could've had Mercenary Business: Afganistan & Africa Edition 2015 but instead we got an average MGS game.
