Basically unplayable

Don't bother with this. The control scheme is an absolute disaster and it isn't compatible with a controller.

Sadly no german voices! They were great.

The only thing that is missing for me is German/Deutsch Voice and Subtitle. The german voices were really great and it would bring my childhood memories back. Please GoG, bring us multilanguages for the Metal Gear games!

Unplayable mess

Man this is a bad port. It's virtually unplayable. For instance, analog control doesn't work. That really makes sneaking up on someone very difficult. They've done nothing to improve the early 2000's port.

Hot take incoming

Honestly I found this game pretty frustrating. It is plagued with old school game design that doesn't really cut it now. The best way I can describe is like a puzzle game, but it doesn't give you any sense of direction. It heavily relies on you using the codec to call people, even if that's not the clear thing you're supposed to be doing. There are some bs enemy and camera placements. So far, my playthrough is incomplete because my game crashed in the second phase of the final boss, sending my save back to the comm tower because this game doesn't technically have real auto saves. I'm coming to this as a new Kojima fan. My favorites are Death Stranding, Peace Walker, and both Vs. What makes this game kind of funny is that those games tend to suffer from over tutorialization while this one suffers from under tutorialization.
