I have played this game as part of my journey to understand Kojima's fandom. I found the gameplay quirks interesting and the overall "meme factor" of dialogue, story, and character interactions to be very not for me.
I think this game is like Ginger Chews, some people love them and can't stop consuming, and some people hate chewing ginger.
Plot:
I think this is what I hated the most, it's unfocused, and bombastic while also living off the fumes of 80s action movies. I wish it committed to a different tone instead of teeter tottering in a way that was unpalatable for someone who isn't a fan of japanese sensibilities filtered through japanese perception of western media.
Gameplay:
This was the game's strength, but unfortunately I derive most of my enjoyement from narrative, I liked the indulgence in quirky gameplay that refreshes the loop but yeah, bad story.
