It's story was rushed and needed a lot of support. The plot in general had very little feeling or presence in the game play. And its plot was reduced to just a couple of very very very long cut scenes.
It had too much plot twists, long cutscenes pr flashbacks about intel and scientific and technological stuff your mind goes ka-boom to even understand the basics. Besides the long codec call; so yeah, that was all too much
Yeah, MGS2 was a close 2nd for me. I think I also didnt like them because it followed MGS1 where you do a lot, and it turns out the whole time you were being played.
I've not played MGR. But since Kojima was not part of it, I can only imagine it has 120% less Story, leaving it with 80% story. Which is not too much at all😂
