(I actually enjoyed it)
Ironically in dunkey’s revisited review he talks about how if the game was only focused on deliveries, and reconnecting the world after some event, and not beaches and BTs and bridge babies and all the wild stuff it would be a better game. But then it wouldn’t be a Kojima game
Honestly I feel the best way to play any Kojima game is to seperate the story and gameplay mentally. Like playing monopoly but every twenty minutes your great grandfather drops family lore and rants about how the English are at fault for all the worlds problems in increasing long winded rants.
