I really don't want to know anything about anything when going into the game. But when there's all these theories and stuff running around I can't help but look. But I'm trying to be strong haha.

Eh, please don't skim through the spoiler thread then ask things like this.

Either way you are confirming or denying something that would be a prevalent talking point in that thread, by doing so with the comfort in which you ask that.

Not really but I edited my post. There's nothing out there that proves if it's true or not.

This... plus me asking questions about Hayter not being in the game. I wish someone would reply already.

Hayter is not in the game. This is not the voice actor you are looking for.

I'm still Team A. A MGS game without Hayter in some form just feels wrong to me.

Yeah but it does point in some direction whether you meant it or not. Let's just avoid discussing what may or may not be till 9/1 and only discuss what we know for sure.

Just trying to keep this place safe's all.

Fair enough, but that's the kind of thing that can get tricky in the coming days.

You entering the spoiler thread and that not being a topic of discussion there would lead me to think that what you suggested isn't a thing that happens (if it were it would probably be the talk of the topic). It wouldn't surprise me, but it's an easy assessment to make.

How many fucking times do I have to write, that any discussion about spoilers belong in the spoiler thread.

And don't come here and say: "WOAH, WHAT I READ THERE WAS AWESOME/BAD"

Fuck off with that, thanks.

Nah, this one wasn't that bad.

It's just a gray line thing we need to iron out. Now that spoilers are out there story speculation ought to slow down; there's too much chance of an answer (or a non-answer) revealing things,

"I'm wondering if there will be any psychological bosses"

"You won't be disappointed"

(Note, that's just a hypothetical question/answer I created)

That sort of thing can get tricky now. A person's coyness, or willingness to answer something, can be revealing.

Well maybe, that's not the point. It shouldn't be in here at all. I could leave here and click on nothing MGS related the next 10 days, but I don't want that. I want this place to stay safe haven.

That's why I think whoever gets the first post on a page should edit in 'No spoiler related or hypothetical discussions about the story/gameplay mechanics or areas allowed here till 9/1. This is a safe place from spoilers so please try to keep it so.' Something similar to that.

I know it won't do a lot but it should do at least enough to avoid something major.

I hope we start our countdown soon and just focus the discussion on previous games and the History of Metal Gear, and stuff.

Thanks. And we're all about TPP discussions like the stuff from the trailers and gameplay footages, how you intend to play and what you think of the stuff we know for sure etc., but nothing that may hint to anything. Now that everyplace else's full of spoilers it's hard to keep a place safe.

I appreciate it. And no, you wouldn't have known, it's all boundaries being created as we go.

Story speculation too easily bleeds into confirmations or denials, even accidental ones. We're trying to be strict on minimizing potential spoilers in this thread, so we're keeping discussion more generally focused on Metal Gear as a whole, and on MGSV things that are known.

I'm really looking forward to the launch trailer. I said I won't watch it but the hype is too high. And it's Kojima's final MGS trailer so it's only fair to watch.

So will I. I kind of don't want to, but kind of do. I'm too excited not to watch. I need all the metal gear I can get.

And I just really like movie/video game trailers.

I agree. I hope it's released by the end of tomorrow. I don't want to wait until launch day to watch it.

Brau, expect to see my awesome huge MGS collection. Figurines and all that.

Decisions... my local gamestop is doing a midnight release. I was planning on going digital but the idea that it unlocks at 3 am est means I probably would just play in the am rather than stay up... if I go physical I could be playing by 1 am but then I've got a disc to worry about...

I am probably still going digital...

Edit: already took the day off work so either way I'll be playing all day, except for gym and meal time
