First off, I'm 45, started gaming when I was around 5 years old on an Atari 400.. Never before have I played a game this gorgeous to look at or amazing to play. Nigh on everything in this game has been created with the utmost dedication and care, from the lore and Easter eggs to the way you walk over rocky terrain.
Been following this game throughout its development and to be honest I wasn't overly convinced as I've never really "clicked" with Kojima's other games. It wasn't till the last few weeks that I decided to pre-order it. To say the least I am so glad I did now. Something about it just hooked me, there are so many things I just love. Things like how the multiplayer aspect is implemented like finding a generator in a remote but extremely handy location left by another player and being able to "like" it as a way of showing appreciation.
Yes, it is a bit long winded but it is as amazing or as boring as you make it. If you go into it convinced it is going to be crap then that is how it will be. Go into it with at least an open mind and you will be blown away by the storytelling, the grand vistas, the suspense of avoiding BTs and the adrenaline rush of getting away from them when they do attack!
