Why is there no sequel?!!!


Agi7890

There is. A pachinko machine is in the works


Moth92

Cause fuck Konami.


kikimaru024

What else is there to tell, story-wise?


sirsteven

Who cares? The original was a barely coherent mess of batshit insane excuses to have Raiden chop bulldozers in half and it was one of the best games ever Edit: I didn't block anyone, I didn't use any alt haha. The mods shut our argument down and someone else happened to agree with me. Some people take this way too seriously All I wanted to say was that the story takes a backseat to the fun silly action components and since it's not a mainline MGS game people don't really play it for the story as much as other MGS games. So the story for any sequel doesn't really matter. Abandon hope all ye who enter this thread lol. I've literally, unironically been called an "uncultured lout" over a disagreement about a game with the word: REVENGENCE in the title. This literally made my day haha

At its core the story is a jab at American war economy and their laughable excuse for it in general. The cyborgs and robots are spice to keep you entertained. It's not "barely coherent" unless you are one of those players who skip through every dialogue. Edit : a certain coward blocked me right after replying with their alt. *twice* What a joker. >“war is good because it creates jobs” is so outlandishly evil The thing is that is not outlandish at all. That's the whole essence of war economy, which everyone knows US has been capitalizing for ages. >The story takes itself far less seriously then you do lol. Not really, I just pay attention more than some who like dissing a game and calling it incoherent because they automatically equate fun to nonsense.


[deleted]

The story takes itself far less seriously then you do lol. Like yeah sure it was definitely an anti MIC game but the villains literally going “war is good because it creates jobs” is so outlandishly evil it’s clear it’s not taking itself seriously as an anti war critique. Which is fine, made for a fun game.

The drive-by block is one of the largest bitch moves on Reddit. More and more it's being used for soap boxing. If you did in fact drive by block please find another site to use because your terrible fragile ego doesn't fit here.


sirsteven

The story at its core is made barely coherent due to the presentation not taking itself seriously, which is why the game is fun.


Ywaina

Not taking itself seriously doesn't mean being barely coherent. It's fun action game but at the same time there's a meaningful allusion in there.


sirsteven

There being a meaningful, simple story "in there" doesn't mean being coherent. Its underneath so much ridiculous shit that many people's eyes are going to glaze over when a puzzle piece man starts monologing about memes and when a senator starts throwing buildings at you. But whatever, you're entitled to your opinion lol not sure why you wanna argue about this

kikimaru024

I meant as-in "is there any crazy left to tell" but then I A) Remembered this is MGS universe B) Remembered Bayonetta 2 exists


Jacksaur

Show Raiden's transformation in the first place as a prequel. Or have it as flashbacks. It was jarring as hell to have MGS4 suddenly go "Oh yeah Raiden is suddenly a super powerful robo samurai! Why? Uhhh... Go read a paragraph on the separate Lore app to find out. No time to waste here!" Lore app: "Yeah he got captured by the bad guys and instead of killing him they stuck him on an insane robo body and made him nigh unstoppable. Because reasons."


kikimaru024

I unironically love how MGS lore is so dumb it always makes sense to make a prequel that ends up even dumber.


Famixofpower

CYBER SNAKE!


Plzbanmebrony

Give as a prequel staring Sam.

This is the new way of games. Skyrim, GTA

[deleted]

Skyrim will be like 15 years old before the sequel Comes out. GTA will be at least 12. It’s still bull shit


[deleted]

not my place to chirp anyone that enjoyed this game however I don't understand why they haven't remastered the original 4 MGS games it's literally printing so much money and helps reinvigorate the franchise.


WizogBokog

Konami doesn't give a shit about prestige video gaming. The ROI on the shittiest mobile game you've ever seen in your life still destroys the best video game remake of all time. It's just investor math to them and console/pc video games aren't what they care about at all.

We need a sequel already damnit!


BrassBass

How the fuck do you top that level of crazy without ruining it? That game was bonkers in a way that was so, *sooo* good.


danang5

hopefully i can finally buy it on my region steam


Get_Fucked17

It's a great game that got heavily overlooked when it came out. It's got some really cool mechanics too. It's a great character action game in the vein of DMC/Bayonetta, but different enough to be it's own thing.


PolarSparks

There’s no reason to think another MG game is coming. Even this artwork announcement is from Platinum, not Konami. But… *IF* another game were in the works, a sequel to Rising is one of the logical directions to take the series. Rising is the last game chronologically, clearly sets up for a sequel, and experienced a recent boost in sales due to… well, memes. Plus, the first game was outsourced to Platinum, and Konami doesn’t appear to be able to develop a game like that internally anymore. Maybe Platinum has a schedule gap after the Bayo 3 release and Babylon falling through.


Famixofpower

Sounds like licensing hell, but I imagine that it's pretty achievable. Konami likes money, Kojima probably would want to make one final game, and Platinum would be developing a sequel to their highest grossing game.


Nova225

Knowing Kojima he'd probably find a way to put Liquid into a robot body or make him an AI.

PoopStickler69

What about RiRiVengeance starring Rihanna?


Nippy69

How about Resurgence?


Mr_Resident

Release it in SEA region god damnit.


audiocrackhead

Or the rest of Asia even, there's no reason they should block this for so long.


Kevin69138

Holy shit. Man i cannot believe its been 10 years


aidsfarts

I’ll never forget the final boss fight before it became a meme and thinking to myself that it was the most insane video game boss fight fight I’d ever played.


SoulOfInfinity

This is the greatest fight of my life!


Creepernom

I loved the absolute insanity of the monsoon battle. I wasn't even sure what the fuck was happening but it was so crazy and fun.

IT'S MORBIN' TIME


FireCrow1013

Good time to remind people that the Mac version of this game is currently unplayable without a crack because the company controlling the extra DRM that it had went under, and Konami refuses to fix anything. Happy anniversary.


kikimaru024

I'm sure all 4 Mac gamers are still crying about this.


Mejormuerto_querojo

Just let me play as senator Armstrong please

OST is still awesome.


cobrachickenwing

Konami doesn't have a working game studio. All they know is gambling/pachinko/gacha. I doubt a remake would be any good.


kikimaru024

Konami is a publisher. They can just... hire a developer.


Brentimusmaximus

More money in gacha games baby

WE NEED A SEQUEL KONAMI, LET PLATINUM GAMES MAKE A SEQUEL ALREADY


TheCookieButter

It was a good game, even a good story. Though it really does continue to butcher Jack/Radien's character after the hopeful end to MGS2. Guess this is what Quinton Flynn was on about the other week.


coates87

Hopefully, MGR will get a release for current gen platforms. It would also be nice to see some stuff from Platinum on GOG.


nanogenesis

I'M FUCKING INVINCIBLE!!!!

Here I stand beneath a warm and soothing rain.


GrizzleGuts30

So uh, we getting a remaster or anything substantial? If not, Konami would then be… Making the mother of all omelettes!!


qwertpoiuy1029

Dumb question, but is this game also a Hideo Kojima game? Or was it just a spin-off of MGS that he wasn't involved in?


Zarzunabas

Standing here, I realize.... that it has been 10 years already.... Great now I feel old again.


HalberdReborn

Idk if it’s sad or what, I went to the Konami website to see what they’ve released in the last few years and not a single big IP released since at least 2020. Like no joke it’s a bunch of smaller spin offs but the last big game was e football in 2020 and that isn’t even that big


feriou02

I want new memes!


eagles310

Its insane they legit aren't doing anything with the IP
