@@ItsAmandaLemon I'm just researching MGS story because one of my friends requested a detailed summary, and I kinda don't have time to replay of the games, so I stumbled upon your videos.

@@brussiantalks2362This is the kind of comment that makes tubing worthwhile!! You’re absolutely right of course, the amount of effort they put into this video is top tier 👍
Years later and I’m still watching this video. Very helpful. Thank you so much for having a concise and entertaining summary, you need more subscribers!
38:38, it is not Eli that is going to New York city. it is the real Big Boss infiltrating America and going to David. In chapter 3 we were supposed to have 'Peace' which is where Big Boss takes care of david and trains him with the basics of CQC. we were also suppose to reconnect with Campbell... David actually grew up thinking Big Boss was his father until metal gear and then Metal Gear 2 Solid Snake... in those games it is revealed that big boss taugh David everything... but we can all thank Konami's CEO for screwing us all of what would have been the true Magnum Opus of Kojima... else than that your work summarising this game and the others has been amazing!!!
Haha! Seriously, it would probably be easier to learn and become fluent at speaking Mandarin than to try and understand the MGS series. After being exposed long enough to all the talk of government agencies, shady operations, military tactics, snaaaaaake, etc, it all just starts to sound like a bunch of clicks and whistles.
Great recap! Very detailed, I think anyone that watch this video could understand perfectly the story of Metal Gear Solid V even if they didn't play the game. You've made an incredible job recapping such a complex story, I can see many many hours of work you put on this video. Thank you ❤ I would like to see Peace Walker next, even it's not the most popular game it connects a lot of things with the other titles and because... Big Boss 😂
completed the entire video .. and the story is interesting... only video that explains the backstories in great detail... my head was irritated like hell with the suspense and paranormal looking stuff before I arrived at this video. she basically is a plant because she does photosynthesis! 😂 the effort you put in to make this video.... commendable !!! patience level ! loved it the legacy of creepy kid continues
He doesn't change it. The face the player choses is the players original look. I believe that Venoms face was changed after the explosion but before the hospital stay so when the doctor holds up the mirror and you make the choice, before that choice is made the doctor is killed. The real Big Boss had a full bandage cover to conceal his face Holding up the mirror was just a natural way for the game to let you customize what the player first thinks is going to be their character but that is cut short by the assassin which is probably meant to leave the player wonder what that was for
6:15 You know I can imagine a plausible scenario where when the Medic was first recruited by Big Boss he was given brief rundown of his background from age birth and ethnicity and once he got to the "sex" question he just sarcastically retorted "I'm a MAN, duh" and Big Boss had this spontaneous impulse to act _A little cheeky._
2024 here. Thank you for breaking the plot in so much detail Amanda, as a huge fan of the Metal Gear series I really wanted to see how Venom Snake meets Solid Snake at the Outer Heaven (after the Diamond Dogs base) to start the original 80s game plot, but the gameplay of Phantom Pain made me drop it at 48% of completion due to the repetitive gameplay. Anyway, Venom Snake gets shot by Solid in the original Metal Gear, Big Boss escapes, White Mamba aka Liquid grows up, and Solid goes for him in the Metal Gear Solid x That's all I needed to know, thanks Amanda x
Great video While the game is quite confusing and chapter 2 is clearly rushed, I still like it as a game. Good gameplay and strong story aspects honestly cement it as a solid 9/10 for me
That's debateable among HARDCORE MGS fans most say MGS1 OR 3 or 4 me personally I say MGS3 and 4 are the best David Hayter IS WAS and ALWAYS BE Big Boss aka Snake
Just started playing V last night lol. Was at 4% since launch. No idea why I stopped playing. I think it was during my WoW days. Anyway... Thanks you for these videos; been a while and certainly needed a lore refresher
Hell yeah, I could watch MGS content all day and thought I had exhausted everything on UA-cam until I came across this bad lil boy! Really great vid, you covered this shit out of it which is no small feat for any Kojima game. "A snuke in her snizz," got me laughing pretty good, totally unexpected and something I never expected to hear anyone say I reckon haha. I like to imagine Huey back at Mother Base during the events of Ground Zeros snickering behind the walkie-talkie radio during the between moments when talking with Boss. Huey is about to pull an epic prank on the boys who think they are going to come back to base with everything being all normal, then SURPRISE! Huey pulls a fast one, the rascal! Then once he sees how they react and all the dead bodies he starts to wonder if maybe he went too far or perhaps they just couldn't take a joke. Just picture Huey hiding behind something, rubbing his hands together in anticipation and peeks over only to be shocked to see Boss....isn't even smiling, and also killing guys left and right? I realize this is some insanely stupid shit, but I'll be damned if this sort of thing doesn't amuse me to no end.
0:22 wrong. Kojima had every intention to make this even a tv series like game with the cutscenes, but the shenanigans with the higher ups at konami (change of CEO mid-production) and the over budget that the acting caused (I suspect even that Kiefer sutherland asked for his contribution to be scrapped to a bare minimum after the debacle) hence why snake has less audio lines than any other character... it was a doomed production ...
great summary. one thing though: kaz is the one that opposes training the child soldiers for combat. boss proposes that jokingly, and kaz basically tells him to fuck off
You can't judge your enemy, because big boss is an anarchist. It's not the anarchist way to judge. They're not judging anyone through the game. They're killing people that would kill them, or not, because the point is not to bring death. It's to make people understand true freedom.
The entire storyline is a mess that I can’t unscramble Lmao… So MGS V isn’t actually 5 it’s 1-3 ? This game franchise is soo confusing it hurts my brain thinking about it. So i took it as MGS V is the Fifth MGS game and that is it and not going to have MGS VI (6) anytime soon.
Before I watch the whole video: classic rookie mistake. The only way to get the full main story is to do a great deal, if not all, of side missions … I am already unimpressed…. Facetiously.
This series isn’t supposed to be a deep detailed story, it’s for people who want to know the story in a digestible manner so they don’t have to watch a 5 hour video.

Wait killing quiet was optional??? I thought she was going to come back either way later but no i just missed like 1/4 of the games content wth
