    Fun fact: despite popular belief, I am categorically extremely European and was not intimately aware at how BAD it was to drop the R slang on full auto, my bad. Some people call it a slur but I think I pronounced it perfectly. But also, my bad.
    Haven't done it since and won't again. Unless I end up covering Death Stranding. I'll try.

      SPOILER
      James came to Silent Hill only few days after Mary's death with her body still in the car. And as someone who lost close ones in last years of pandemic I felt the similar problems with perception of time and what is actually real...
      But Peace Walker takes place 10 years after Operation Snake Eater. And while sometimes grief (an actual theme of this game I think not PeAcE) can take years to process I don't think Big Boss would still be as broken as he is in this game. Some of the cutscenes with Boss hit pretty hard home, but the amount of discrepancies and denial he leaves through in them seems a little too far fetched.

      I'm kinda 50/50. On one hand, I appreciate him for seeing past MGS2's super praised story and looking straight at the gameplay for what it is, which ended up being something he really disliked, but on the other he doesn't really say anything deep about said gameplay. The whole video seems to be more of a light-hearted summary of his experience with the series, in which he briefly explains why he thinks that experience dipped or rose in enjoyment, rather than an in-depth critique. It's a very emotional approach to criticism. However, I thought the quality of the video was pretty good and I really enjoyed the guy's charisma and sense of humor (and I'll probably subscribe and watch his other stuff for that reason). In other words, the broad strokes of this video are very well thought out, but the meat of it - the actual essay/critique part - is pretty weak. Therefore, by Punk Duck's own metric, this this video is the MGS2 of video essays.

I think we could compare this to Death Stranding with what was trying to be done except for the actual gameplay.

Look it all up, faked MGS2 trailers and screenshots showing u playing Snake were he was never there in the real game. That would be impossibly to keep secret in today's internet age. seriously, no one knew until the day the game.dropped. a few.journalists knew but they kept it secret as well. I love MGS2?

    Peacewalker actually has a part that gets even more annoying. So in order to actually get to the final level you have to replay multiple levels trying to track down one guy who keeps escaping from your brig, and each time he will be hidden in a different place. I played the game with a friend so we actually trigger the final level by accident because the guy you are looking for is hiding in the in game firing range and we only found him because we were screwing around with some of the guns. Also the final boss in a teenager in her underware piloting the mech you built, which im pretty sure you can cheese by just ignoring the mech building mini game.

    One of my favorite things about MGS3 was that the Subsistence version came with an online mode. It was very unique and pretty baller, you could knock out other players for a small amount of time and shoot out their radios so they couldn't communicate with their team. I put 1000s of hours into that online, but they pulled the plug after only ~2 years.

    • @johnkendel8752
      @johnkendel8752 Рік тому +2

      Right? It makes even more sense when you realize Big Boss was raised as a "soldier." Not a normal kid. He was raised as a soldier, and so he thinks mostly like one too. At the end of PW, Snake came to the conclusion that The Boss put down her gun and in doing so betrayed everything about being a soldier. From the way he was raised, he viewed it as her betraying the idea of "loyalty to the end." To the average person, it's obvious that wasn't the case, but Snake has only known "war," so that's how he views the whole situation. People tend to forget that Big Boss' mindset is not the same as normal people. He had a completely different upbringing then the average Joe, and as such, his views on life are completely different than what they'd be if he wasn't raised as a soldier.
      (They also tend to forget he literally becomes an antagonist. He's not exactly suppose to be a completely morally good character. He's a complex character who legit does some pretty despicable things in the later games like becoming a terrorist and starting wars and using child soldiers.)

  • @yuseifudogamer4717
    @yuseifudogamer4717 4 місяці тому +1

    22:08 Peace Walker is a lot better than you give it credit for. The whole time, he's struggling to move past The Boss' death. He didn't "forget" as he literally made a scar similar to The Boss'.
    He was forced to confront what he did and let go especially once he came into contact with another person who just couldn't let go of The Boss, Strangelove. It even has a full circle moment revolving around one of The Boss' quotes:
    "Just look at that bandana. If you can't leave the past behind you, you won't survive long."
    And it makes sense that he can't just simply let go of his mentor and mother figure. That's the real point of Peace Walker, it's an emotional story of moving on, where MGS3 was about him growing into a soldier.

    I was 6 years old when I played Metal Gear Solid 2 for the first time. Played the tanker mission over and over again till I was like 9 or 10 thinking that was the whole game. Then my mind was blown when I was smart enough to follow directions and read objectives. These games taught me how to read in a way, I literally was able to grow up with these games. MGS2 will always hold a special place in my heart. Like seeing Empire Strikes Back for the first time with out any spoilers or knowledge of the lore.

    This has become one of my fav videos no joke! I'm playing the saga in the launch order, and the best thing is the gameplay didn't slapped me so much, but man, mgs2 gets me in the nerves, took me months to finish.

      How did it take you months? Yes it can be very annoying and really shows some lackluster game design from back then but it's fairly quick to get through

    17:30 The radio code to unlock the door is also on the back of jailer’s photo of his family, you can see it by pressing R1 during the cutscene that plays if you give him your food three times

    I have watched this video at least 3 times. I cannot state the amount of love I have for this fucking series and adding one of my favorite content creators give an essay on it so passionately with such an amazing use of music just-AH! SO GOOD!

    damn you quit Peacewalker before you got to the good stuff. End game you fight the 4 robots to farm their brains.

    MGS2 teaches you the basics in the Big Shell chapter again because if you choose a different familiarity option to the MGS-series it skips the tanker.

    I just started playing mgs 5. First time playing an mgs. I’m loving it and feeling like I robbed my childhood of these games. Not sure why I never played them before. So now i’m watching all these videos about the older games, yours came up and it was incredible!

      @@lite1776 yeah like the story was strange, gameplay was super fun, and when i looked at the old ones i’m like man these look fun gameplay wise but with great story too.

    Sickest intro I've ever seen for a video like this. You caught the DNA of the saga (no pun intended)

    i’m gonna be honest, the two games you trashed (pw and 2) are actually some of my favorites in the series, but EVERYTHING you said was correct. the awful controls/camera, monotony of gameplay, infuriating boss fights and useless plot points were all things i despised about both games.
    another thing; when it comes to mgs, i’m very much invested in the story and i found peace walker to be the perfect link between 3 and 5 - an escapist fantasy where big boss is a fucking power house in control of a small nation’s worth of soldiers… before crashing down to a bleak and depressing reality via gz/tpp. this video was great, btw! it made me laugh a LOT, you earned a new sub :D
