People bringing up asmongold saying "I hope they don't make it political" about MGS3 remake as though that's an inherently ignorant thing to say. I've played MGS3. It is an incredibly cheesy game targeted at teenagers with incoherent politics on the level of a james bond film. You have people running around saying the series is anti-war or whatever the fuck. Maybe you can find some buried recordings with the characters talking about some CIA op to topple governments or something. It is not front-and-center. All I can really think of is Ground Zeroes that has you infiltrating Guantanamo Bay. Peace Walker also has you fighting alongside some group who were socialist IRL.
Anyway I just say all this so you aren't as let down as I was when you play the MGS3 remake expecting some sort of full-throated communist propaganda.
MGS2 and 3s plot getting told almost entirely within codex conversations does make following whatever political points they try to make pretty difficult
Like a badly formatted book
exactly, like its cool that mgs has both whacky fourth-wall breaking conversations about how eating glowing mushrooms recharges your batteries, long discussions about old hollywood films and long philosophical musings, but maybe they shouldn't all be presented the same way
