I should probably give it a spin on my PC some time. Back in 2015 I had to play Ground Zeroes and Phantom Pain on my 360
It's a very lonely game and the plot is shit but the vibe is unmatched
The gameplay was excellent. My main gripes were the dogshit story and the repetitive environments. It felt like you were just taking down samey outposts for most of the game. It really needed large intricate areas like the Guantanamo facility from Ground Zeroes.
As for the story, I think Hideo Kojima was just out of MGS juice since 3. 4 was abysmally bad and 5 wasn't much better. Peace Walker was kind of a return to form in terms of tone but I'm not even sure how hands on Kojimbo was with that game's development
