Biggest Fears for TPP

Can't lie: even though MGSV shows promise that I haven't seen from Kojima in awhile, I'm still skeptical. I found little details in GZ to really contribute to the overall story, thus redeeming my faith slightly in Kojima. However, I'm still not convinced. I'm still apprehensive that he will let me/us down in some form. Here are a few examples of what I'm worried about:

Kojima gets too focused on the lore/canon that the overall story of TPP suffers to appease preceding games. He does not need to be constricted to the canon.

Skull Face is just Ocelot or Zero playing a part in some scheme against Boss. That or he's actually a fake character, but rather a representation of the brewing evil side of Boss. Essentially anything that would tarnish the buildup of one of the best villains.

Kojima has yet to demonstrate open world fully, base customization/features, killing characters insignificant to the future, bringing a companion, etc. Any feature he has suggested yet not delivered on could be another MGS3/4 where the hype isn't met or it's not included in the final product. This is probably one of my biggest fears, because Kojima still is showing signs of this :GZ is not on graphical level for the initial PAX video that he assured could even be done on PS3.

Any of the ridiculous theories such as body doubles is implemented in some fashion.

Feel free to add/discuss. I'm under the influence so if I missed a previous thread akin to this, please combine mods!

They've pretty much shown the open world so there is no take back for here like they did back in MGS3. Maybe the length may be a lot smaller. I do remember his tweets such as "IT WILL BE 300% BIGGER" to "IT WILL ALMOST 300% BIGGER". My main concern is the technical difficulties of the engine. Bodies disappearing is a huge turn off in my part an if they can't handle that, go back to the old school fading body which will be really disappointing but having bodies unintended to disappear is so annoying especially when they're tranquilized.

Gotta agree with you on features as well. TPP Being main course, I don't just want a bigger Ground Zeroes game with more weapons/vehicle. Features are a huge thing. Aside base management with custom loadouts and camoflauge, I want things in-game like Cabela's Game Hunter 2015 in-game. Have social interactions with Neutral Characters like in MGS4. Many off mission gameplay where you do stuff for fun and climb things where there isn't any reward or anything. When you hype a game so much and keep saying open world and content, YOU GOTTA DELIVER IT! GZ was amazing but disappointing because I'm not really a completionist unless I find a valuable reward for it. Remember the 2012 GZ Demo when they first announced it showing Snake in GZ intro gameplay where they showed Vehicle gameplay and Flare grenade and when the helicopter comes and you get on it and the translater says "You see those Cliffs and Mountains? You could go there as well and its completely open world.". Well, you couldn't go to those cliffs and mountains. So yeah, I'm hyped but don't bite more than you can chew.

i think the source of your fears for the game is high expectations.You seem to be troubled for every aspect of the game without even having seeing it in action yet.The thing is that MGS V as a whole is shaping up to be one of the best MGS to date and this should be your focus.Comparing aspects of the game with perfect examples wont do it justice.what if MGSV wont be as open world as GTA or AC?Its still a step forward to be free roaming in a wide area in MG.What if Skull Face is Ocelot or Zero or Sorrow?does it messes with overall plot?And what is it that got them or made them do that,questions we dont get to answer, because we dont have the game yet.

This is not a thread to debate. This is a thread to discuss our fears. You say I'm judging too early/have high expectations, and I think you are a blind, naive fanboy.

I'm basing it off of typical Kojima bullshit and the lack of evidence for many things.

First of all chill, i didnt make it personal and i dont see why you trying to...
I just said my opinion,if it hurts you i cant do nothing about it.
Basing your assumptions in stereotypes and lack of evidence its just too rushed for me, thats all.

My bad, that did sound kind of unintentionally rude on my part.

But, I'm well within my grounds. It's not acceptable for a game producer who has a history of lying/overhyping his game features to not show what he is currently promising. It's just hard to take him seriously.

too many RPG mechanics like PW
poor pacing due to non-linear structure
lack of humour if they try to be too dark and 'mature'
the game offending people when it inevitably handles a heavy subject inappropriately

Returned from the abyss...I guess.
- Like you said, lack of real game play shown , no base buiding\customization shown etc..

- Too much focus on The Boss again

- That Quiet will be wasted potential instead of a good character

- That there will be too little cut scenes or too many

- Snake not showing enough emotion, whether it be through speaking or facial expressions.

- That the script for the game might not be as good as we think

- Too much grinding, ala PW

- Terrible side ops missions

My greatest fear is that TPP will be made with several DLC's. I don't want MGS to become like Mass Effect in a way that a lot of important lore is stuffed inside DLC's that are way over priced like ten euros for a fucking squad mate who provides important information of Prothean Empire, or 10 euros for a two hour DLC that tells about the origin of the Reapers. And even more infuriating are the 15 euro DLC's Omega and Citadel. the DLC's alone cost almost as much as a new game. Nope I don't want MGS to become a DLC'd clusterfuck where important lore is stuffed behind way over priced DLC's that cost almost as much as a whole new game. MGS has always had (except MGR) the whole story of the game in a single package you buy and this what I've appreciated from MGS. No relevant lore behind over priced DLC's. So I hope that MGSV won't have DLC's that contain important lore behind DLC's.

My biggest fear is obviously the new MGO but i feel more relaxed now after i beat the controls of MGS V.

Other fears are: Chico turns out to be Quiet, PW grinding system, Useless Side ops, No Knife as a standalone weapon, Big Boss talking less and kaz dominates the game, Graphic issues like clipping and pop ins, removing the stealth camo and bandana, No text chat and hosting games in MGO.

My biggest fears are MGO related, because i just want it to be awesome and i don't want to see good features left out. I'm also worried if knife doen't turn out to be a standalone weapon aswell.

This is probably silly for some, but i'll be bummed if porn mgs don't come back because i always chuckle like a little kid everytime i place them and see soldiers/other mgo players react to them :P
