ITT: Games you hate that everyone else loves MGS. It controls

SM64 has aged incredibly well in terms of controls.

I'm with you, OP. I want to finish MGS so I can drudge through to MGS 3 and then eventually MGS 5 but it's painful.

It doesn't help that X is cancel and O is confirm in MGS1 because Japan and PS1 games.

>and the story's pretentious

Fucking THIS.

Japanese shouldn't be allowed to write storylines.

>>387855645
people like it because it was their first MGS game.

It's my favorite. One of my top 5 games of all time. But I'd still rather play 4 or even V over it.

Are you are you telling me that 15 minute expository monologues where characters make sure not a single theme or symbol goes unexplained is bad storytelling?

Looks like you're comparing it to other games in the same series despite it being entirely different, since it plays more like an Action game with a good setting and story.
>controls like shit
Outside of push sensitivity and 4-way walking controls are at least reliable once you get them down. The two issues mentioned are only there because the time period the game was released in.
>stealth barely matters
Despite the title Tactical Espionage Action the "stealth" elements are just simple means to avoid combat and keep the minimap up which is important for getting through areas quickly and effectively. Some paths are locked when in Alert anyhow.
>story is pretentious
It's intentionally cheesy, it either works for you or it doesn't and Japan really enjoys it. The entire series has this (perhaps aside from 3), and you can at least say there's only one superpowered psychic boss in the game.
