Metal Gear Solid 5 Will Contain Plot "Inconsistencies"

[EightGaugeHippo]

This is a non-issue. Fans of MGS like myself have put up with "worse" things in the story than a few flubs.

They've put up with MGS, in fact.

I'd go so far to say that a good chunk of the fanbase will bend over backward to justify even the silliest of holes.

After all, we've always been at war with Eastasia.

yeah I like MGS, because it's silly. I'm not going to defend the story, I know it's weird, but that's why I like it.
The game play is where I get most my enjoyment from funnily enough, especially MGS3. Cautiously sneaking through the jungle, occasionally getting into gun battles and then being hunted by Soviets, changing camouflage to suit your environment, preforming first aid on various bullet wounds and cuts, eating snakes. That game can lead to some tense but enjoyable moments.

"The most important part is writing something that is fun marketable, something that is impressive attention-grabbing, something that is better than it was before easier to make into scantily-clad figurines." - translation from marketing speech.

Do you play MGS often? It sounds like you don't.

Played 1-3. I'll admit I didn't give 4 more than a second glance. Call me grumpy or stubborn, but I never really forgave the series for the whole Raiden thing in MGS2.
