Now that Floody mcSmut is sleeping.

I really disliked Twin Snakes except for a couple stealth sections and two bosses (Psycho Mantis and Vulcan Raven) is the original different/better? Will it wash the bad taste off my mouth?

What about 2?

That faggot flooded the thread because he was mad someone said that MGS isn't a great game.

The original game is a million times better, even if you don't like MGS. The Twin Snakes was literal garbage, and not retro also, but yeah.

>> No.3166273

>>3166238
It depends how much you disliked Twin Snakes. The original is a lot better in a number of ways, but whether that would matter to you I can't answer.

My biggest problem with the game is the first person aiming. You do get the sniper rifle eventually, but for the most part the game wasn't designed to be played with you being able to shoot in first person and it breaks a lot of the level design.

I would say it depends what you didn't like about TS whether you should play the original or not. What's the bad taste from?

Oh yes, switching to first person aiming felt so stiff and unnatural in a top-view game. It probably helps that I'm not used to it, and maybe the GC controller is shit for it, but I didn't enjoy using weapons in that game at all. My biggest issue were definitely the bosses, though. They all had boring weapon tutorial battles, except the two I mentioned, and I didn't enjoy their gimmicks that much. I didn't like any of them.

I also didn't like the cookie-cutter action movie non-story, with all those fucking radio conversations, way more than actual game. But I've been told the next games get way wackier and more original. So I'm hoping I'll like them more.

It sounds like MGS in general isn't quite your cup of tea. If you liked it enough to continue with the series then go ahead with 2 and 3. I wouldn't bother replaying the original, I doubt you would get your time's worth out of it.

I have mixed feelings about 2, mostly because of the environments but it's a solid game and does get a bit wacky. 3 is divisive, but is my favorite MGS and I really like it overall.

Bringing it back around to retro, if you liked the basic idea of MGS but want a more streamlined approach I highly recommend the Gameboy Color game MGS: Ghost Babel. It's sort of an alternate telling of the MGS story and a wonderful mix of MGS controls and original Metal Gear.

>> No.3166376

Shit, I completely forgot about the older Metal Gears. I should have totally played those first. I'll give that one you mentioned a spin before going for 2 and 3, anon, I didn't even know there was one for GB.

If you have MGS3 Subsistence you get the REAL MG1 and MG2 and MG2 is a great game as well.
I played MG1 just so I could complete the whole series.
And yes MG:GB is one of the most underrated GBC games I've laid my eyes on.

Nah 2 is objectively worse, but I otherwise agree with you on 8. Fuck the junction system, fuck that mopey bitch Squall, fuck that retarded manchild Laguna, and fuck anybody who recommends this rancid pile of diarrhea.
