Sins of the father mgs56/3/2023 He's a functional villain but one just interesting enough to light the embers of an elaborate and complex series mythology. There's no pathos or legend to his story. Big Boss is a cartoon villain in the first two games with a Sean Connery avatar no less. The subsequent expansion of the story from MGS onwards has slowly morphed MG1&2 into anachronistic outliers in the series lore. What we thought Kojima was building towards, he's actually been steadily moving away from, and that's the 2 MSX games. The gameplay was incredible and, in terms of how this game fits into the lore, I'm not bothered that it fails to resolve certain aspects of the saga, if only because it was already wrapped up, for me at least, before MGSV. I'm actually looking forward to replaying the game, and the saga in general, despite the ending being something of a downer.
