#ALSO I SEE YOU REBLOGGING ALL MY MGS ART THANK U I OWE U MY LIFE

[blazing-spectre]

Msg fixation spotted.

(Had one a while while ago, watched playthroughs of every game)

I’ve been ass deep in it since the start of July and I am having the fucking time of my life over here. We got ridiculous campy macho shit, we got politics and themes directly related to the 20th century communist history I’m interested in atm, and Ocelot is there. It’s even got lesbians.

Haven’t watched any playthroughs yet but I have watched the “movies” on YouTube for 1 and 2, played V, started revengeance the other day (am having the fuckin’ time of my life with it), and am waiting for the master collection to drop so I can play through 3. The fixation is so real and so strong. All the themes and the characters and everything are just SO good.

As for the characters, I have a particularly strong reaction to big boss partially bc I’ve only played MGSV but also bc conceptually the militant cult leader thing is kinda an awesome character type when done well (like in this case) but also he’s definitely the hottest mgs character and the conflicting aspects are intense. However bc ocelot is my favourite character, his relationship w the boss mediates it and makes it more tolerable. Also Kaz went from being one of my least favourites to my favourites. Also I am still mad about Fortune’s death. Also the MGS2 soundtrack fucks SO hard. I have a lot of thoughts but am ill and having trouble articulating them.

Tldr, correct, and thank u for the ask 👉👉
