Finally beat this after playing on and off like a series for an ungodly amount of time, but honestly in those spurts this proved to be hugely enjoyable and each piece was rightly entertaining.

Of course you don't interact with this one to a great degree, but it's cool to click around to get all the intricate little exposition dumps and Kojima details that you're probably here for.

The baddies are of course obviously bad and the plot is a big corporate conspiracy that of course Hideo would cook up, your protagonist is the likable womanizing pig that fits the tribute this plays to all noir.

The animated cutscenes are where this shines and the presentation overall, despite being a little slow on the loading most times, is pretty darn impressive. Still unique, still vibing vaporwave style over 20 years later.
