Dark Souls is cleverly designed and difficult, but fair. Conversely, MGSV's Mission 45 flies in the face of everything happening prior and is just a bad time all around.
There can be no comparison.
The super tank can hit him depending on where Drew stands, so it'd be a gamble either way. And if he's just hidden the entire time, the vehicles will focus Quiet down.

I'm not even a Souls fan, but I'd play any part of any of those games over this mission.

Metal Gear Scanlon 4 is probably my favourite as it's packed full of dumb cutscenes which is the perfect stuff to watch Drew react to.
I'll have to burn through 2033 redux ASAP so I can finally get to Last Light.
I did, there's definitely a spot behind the stairs that you take to roof where you won't get hit.
Fair enough. I really like the atmosphere and world of Metro 2033 so as long as Last Light is as strong in those areas then I guess I'll probably be happy for any excuse to continue playing it.

For the first group of tanks that come to the road near the front door i just placed a bunch of mines where they would stop before the wave actually came.
The rest I did from the front door actually. Just got a bunch of rockets, waited till the tanks shot, then popped out and shot and repeated. It took me a few tries to find the sweet spot, but there was only one tank that gave me trouble and after that the rest of the mission was pretty simple.
Think 2 is on par honestly. Loved both of those to death.
Fell off with 3 but ended up coming back for Scanlon 4 for MGS4's amazing cutscenes

Here, play a badass stealth legend for like 70 hours
Now that you've mastered that, how does a battle against every single tank on earth sound

Giant Bomb XXII | Ugh, they gave me a health bar on Quiet?

I think this is the only legitimately bad part of the game, but even then there are parts I like. Mission 46 was fun, though.

I think I have fonder memories of 2033 but Last Light is well worth playing. Seems like the Tower and Developer DLCs would be ones you can skip, though.

This mission would not have been a problem if Drew had the multi-rocket launcher. But Dan had to tell him he did not need to develop weapons anymore, after the Christmas break. That's why this mission is going like it is.

Yup. There's no way to stealth it which is pretty lame and there's no way to know ahead of time that you were gonna be fighting a horde of tanks (unless the mission alerts of you that like it does for the other missions earlier and i just forgot).

I haven't played MGSV (beyond a couple hours at a buddies house) but this mission looks awful. All of the other MGS games I played stealthily so I assume I would do the same here, this is the exact opposite...
You can stealth pretty much every mission in the game except for 2-3, including this one. They also happen to be the worse missions in the game.

Not only did I beat this mission on my first try, but I did so without Quiet ever getting hit, so I got that mission objective checked.
Maybe I was lucky.

This is really the only mission that's like this. Any other mission can be tackled with stealth besides like the sahelanthropus fight.

Alright cool, cheers for the heads up.

I was too poor to use air support in this mission...
Congrats, Drew! The real test of endurance starts now.

Who needs upgrades when you can just call in airstrikes? Took Drew 40 minutes to beat it.

Drew did it waaaaaaay faster than i was expecting with no upgraded weapons. He's truly the most Solid of Scanlons.

frankly that's the most Drew way that could have played out

No lie, it took me FOREVER to do the last part of this mission... finding Quiet in the desert. I don't know why, but I went over the entire map a million times before finding her.

Drew's got the eye of the tiger. All you had to do was
