    I don’t know about chill. The first 5 minutes:

    !Yo the president wants to see you. Oh BTW the president is your mother. Oh and she’s dying. Oh and once she dies you have to take her body to this spot so that everyone doesn’t die. Tomorrow? No right fucking now. !<

    I couldn’t get into it, and I’ve beaten every MGS, so I know how weird stuff can get. I’ll have to give it another shot one day, but it was not clicking with me.

      It really was a slow burn. I had to progress through 4 or 5 story missions before it really clicked for me. Probably around the time I got >!the first exoskeleton!<. The story starts to do its kojima thing and sucking you in with weird questions, and the gameplay finally starts to feel like you’re making a decision instead of just on rails.

      Good game, good game.
