That hot 900p cropping, I like the camera position on this one much better.

Anybody else going to try playing along with Drew? My busted controller prevented me from playing until my 20th anniversary came in. Currently on mission 4.

 

[Sleeping Lesson]

I was going to watch tonight, but I'm tired as hell. Tomorrow evening, then.

YOU'RE RIGHT. FOOD ORDERED LETS GO

Haha oops, and now I'm bailing on you.

Not so much play along with him, but at the very least this series will force me to finish the game.

I probably could considering the mission based structure of the game, but my schedule is too messed up between class and work to be able to do it consistently.

Regardless of what anyone has to say about the story of MGSV, that moment at the very end where you (HUGE MOTHERFUCKING SPOILERS, GUYS)

Spoiler

flip that tape over and it says "Operation Intrude N313" and you put it into a fucking MSX bitcorder

has to be one of my favorite moments in the entire series. Holy shit, man. I don't give a God damn about how unfinished or canon-ruining or whatever the story overall may be, that's all I ever really wanted out of this game.

 

[Indignate]

I feel like this can either be the worst game for "Drew you're playing it wrong" in the comments.

There's actually no other option. That was it.

I just did mission

and boy the checkpointing and a few small mistakes made that mission incredibly annoying

I'm out of story missions in Afghanistan for now and am just doing side ops before I enter Africa. It just keeps getting better and better.

Did that for ages too, when you do finally make the drop into Africa it's pretty good though

Seeing MGSV commercials on TV is cool, but I need to see some Giant Bomb quotes in there as well

"You can make Kiefer say "do it" and tell your horse to shit all over the ground" 5/5 - Giant Bomb.

If you actually take longer then 3 in game days to rescue Miller he will be dead when you find him and you get a game over.

I was totally expecting a Fight Club-esque split personality to be revealed. That or some portions of the game having been hallucinations caused by the shrapnel.

fucking a, drew's mario maker level

turns out he's the biggest asshole of them all

I wonder if Drew will run into the weird stuttering bug that's on the Xbone version. You straight up lose control of Boss for a few seconds.

that's been driving me insane

I'm really surprised Dan has heard of Phineas Gage. It's quite the fascinating story.

I'm really surprised Dan has heard of Phineas Gage. It's quite the fascinating story.

It's the first thing I thought of when I started playing the game. I like to think that the Phineas Gage effect is why Snake's so quiet and different in this compared to the rest of the series.

 

[shadyspace]

Mark your spoilers better, people.

 

[Piston Hyundai]

hey man I've been doing a fine job of chico is quiet

wait fuck

 

[Intheflorsh]

The only way this playthrough is going to work is if they stick to the main missions and have Drew do the side content off screen.

Drew is being super meticulous. Wonder if he'll beat the Persona 4 ER in number of episodes.

Doubtful. Many episodes of the early P4 ER were like 10 or 15 minutes long. Very doubtful this one goes past 50 episodes.

 

[skLaFarebear]

A little late at this point, but please properly mark future spoilers (or better yet take them to the spoiler threads if it has nothing to do with Drew's playthrough). Don't wanna come off as mean, but I'm sure there are plenty of people here who are following the game's story through the LP and don't wanna know what happens.

You'd be surprised! They're helpful in locating things that you can interact with in some way, which Drew already picked up on (the radar dish on the roof).
