Playing through MGS V, I fucking love this series and this game but ngl, I can’t help but think so much of MGS is nonsense, which I’m totally fine with.
But I haven’t really done a deep dive into the story or it’s commentary, so it’d be cool if someone more uhh analytically inclined could explain this shit to me if it’s worth explaining.
Edit: really cool to play in Afghanistan, not cool to be killing Soviet soldiers
The game actually incentivises not killing. It has a score system where if you manage to not kill anyone you get a huge bonus, and if you do the whole thing undetected you get even more. Play with tranquilizers, knocking down enemies, or suffocating them until they collapse, but don’t kill em!
