Believe it or not, I was actually a bit disappointed in the game when it came out. The version they showed in some long-forgotten E3 was basically a Metal Gear Solid game, but you were the Cyborg Ninja and could slice everything and everyone in half with a sword. The idea of being a hilariously OP cyborg just obliterating regular soldiers in the confines of a stealth game seemed really fun
I was let down when it eventually just morphed into a Devil May Cry :sicko-wistful:
Oh yeah, it's easily the best thing to come out of the franchise since MGS3. I'm a huge fan of Peace Walker's story and characters but the gameplay is unfortunately bogged down by it being a PSP game. I was really hoping MGSV was just going to be the fully realised version of Peace Walker, which in most ways it actually was but the story ended up being kinda nothing :sadness:

I was also part of the same disappointed crowd then like a decade later the game pierced my brain and lives rent free on my head

FWIW I still kinda think this, I get why people like it but the pre-release game looked like more my cup of tea
