Yes, play it and don't read what anyone else says

Yes, but I wouldn't recommend it
It's better if you play 1 and 2 first

Well it's the first chronologically

>inb4 nooo, you have to play etc.. etc..
Yes you can, It's up to you

Yes.

Peak Metal Gear

Yes, you’ll only miss out on some cameos or character references to previous games that don’t really matter. The biggest problem will be the fact that you’re not used to the long cut scenes and dialogue codecs, which you would be better used to if you had played the two previous games

Yup.

It's actually the ideal one to play first

yes
i suggest against it, because the gameplay in the previous ones was more primitive and it would feel awkward to go backwards and miss out on QOL improvements
but story wise it's 100% a great entry point

Yes, and 1 and 2 are nowhere near as good, in fact almost the entire rest of the series is shit

Playing MGS 3 first and then never touching anything else from that series is unironically the patrician experience.

Just treat it as a playable James Bond movie

I will allow it

I suggest you play subsistence if you're gonna play 3. The camera is much better imo. But yeah, like everyone else said, no problem going with this one first.

Yes, but the best play order for MGS is random order

Chronologically, you should play 3 first. Then, you either enjoy it and play the next, or drop it entirelly. It's okay, no judging.

ther fags will hate me for saying this but mgs1 and 3 are can both be stand alone titles

You shouldn't even think of the other 2 existing because they aged like milk

I did. It was my first MGS as well. A good start point. Otherwise, start with MGS1.

Yes but you should play the rest after

it's probably the only one worth getting

You won't appreciate it as much, but yes, it works as a stand alone story even without understanding the context of the overall MGS series

I played 2 first so its fine

Yes and no

It's the first game in the timeline so yeah

If you've never played Metal Gear before, I recommend playing MGS1 and MGS2 before this game.

pleb

This, and don't read my post either

Is the Vita collection good?

MGS's word salad story written by a hack is the definition of pleb, and the stealth gameplay is not very good. MGS3 is the best in the series for telling a relatively coherent self-contained story. Only people with anime brain damage think MGS is good.
