A weee babe! I remember playing the MGS1 demo a billion times on my PS1 when I was somewhere around that age. It’s kinda hard to get past the simplicity of everything compared to later games so it’s not surprising you didn’t play it. Course, I had no other options so that made it easy.
I will mock metal gear and Kojima endlessly now but playing that first game and especially 2 as a kid are absolutely responsible for me being a communist now.
Ah, played them on release day aside from MGS1. Playing MGS2 right after 9/11 as a twelve year old was absolutely instrumental to my life. Trying to make sense of that led me to studying philosophy and theory at a super young age

As a counterpoint, I was a libertarian for a very long time even while playing 1 through 3. I’m not very smart though.
I was like, 9 or 10 when I played the first one.
I was somewhere in my worker ‘trying to understand the contradictions of capital’ phrase while playing MSGV, myself.
