Not bad for Nostalgia Sakes

This is my first purchase on GOG(lemme say the "NO DRM" thing was BS but enough about that) As someone who has played every Metal Gear game, Metal Gear Solid is probably my favorite, albeit the shortest(once you know the game well enough to "accidentally" speed run it) This port plays well. the only thing i see really wrong with it is the cut scenes sometimes lose frames/stutter a bit, which is something that an emulated version (or OG copy) of the game never did for me. The remapable keys are nice considering I didn't want use a controller, but the original layout was typical 90's PC controls(using arrow keys to move and left side keys to perform actions). I was easily able to remap closely to a WASD model, using the mouse only for my weapons. You can almost literally play this game one handed if you don't mind using the trackpad and thumb to shoot. Overall, happy with the purchase, plan to buy MGS2 and several other older games soon.

Input UX is intolerable

The game seems fine, read other reviews here. I can't play this game because of how terrible the inputs and configuration are. First, you can't interact with the menus/UI using the dpad (I use a standard Xbox One controller, so nothing weird); only the left analog stick. If you want to use the dpad you'll need an external tool to remap your buttons. The default key for "accept" in the start menu is "X" on the Xbox One controller. (At least "Cancel" is still "B", but...) When you go into the menu to customize the inputs, you don't get any named inputs and you don't get any kind of indication of a came controller. You get "Button 3", and it's up to you to know which button number is the "A" button; and also up to you to decide which action "Button 6" should map to. There's no representation of where the buttons map on a controller, and there's no display of the named button inputs. The menu doesn't even let you hold down the analog stick to scroll through inputs faster. This is the worst kind of "programmer UI" I've ever seen in a released software. You're better off buying an old PlayStation and getting a copy of the game. Normal users are going to be completely lost on this hot garbage port.

Are Those Reviews Serious??

What's wrong with the gaming community in the recent years? Some dev is selling an old game for 10 dollars without bothering to include a patch to fix the technical problems and you guys are giving a positive review? Seriously let the people know that they won't install and play. This game include a nice black bar in the bottom that won't go away with the usual known methods. You definitely need to download a program from the internet and spend some time working with the problem. Sorry, I won't pay 10 dollars and spend an hour at least to make the game run properly.
