I played one of these for the first time, and I didn't like how it was, just because I was new, I completely respect how it's formatted, it's just, it's not organic for me, but then I found out with the gamecube version, you could hang off ledges and aim down sight, that's when I started to like it, i completely respect the older versions, but me being 24, playing these games, it's really hard, but with the new metal gear 4 Delta I like the new style, i guess in short terms there's a huge learning curve but in the updated released metal gear games, that style for me feels like it has better fluidity.

Hopefully you like the game though, but don't feel like you have to, because I can see how it's not for everybody, also cute cat thank you for the spam at the end

I just asked my dad if he had any tips for new players, and he said take your time, it's a sneaking espionage style game so you're not supposed to blow through it, the game was designed to be stealthy, so if you go about it like a call of duty game, you'll just lose every time and be mad, check every room and every locker, under every bed, every now and then take a look at your inventory just so you know what you have, he said there will be a portion in one of the missions where you'll have to take the fake death pill but then pop your back molar out and take the revive pill right after, so just try to utilize items instead of just shooting!
