Deceptrox Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 Like the title says, this game should be removed from the Metal Gear series since it has nothing to do with the series, it's not even a spin-off, it just has The Phantom Pain skins and the only reason it has "Metal Gear" in its title is for marketing purposes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Wavergray Posted November 10, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted November 10, 2020 No. Whether you like it or not it, it is a Metal gear game. 38 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post PostalDudeRus Posted November 10, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted November 10, 2020 You should go outside more often, man. This game is part of Metal Gear, but just spin-off. Using your logic they also need to remove MGS 4 too and any other spin-off from different series like Resident Evil. BTW, Survive is not that bad, I've spend more then 400 hours in it (compare to 650 hours of MGS V) and it's fun, different to other MGS, but fun. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Sergen Posted November 10, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted November 10, 2020 Next up will be people suggesting to remove The Elder Scrolls Online from the Elder Scrolls series due to it being much longer than Skyrim while they actually want to flex having the series done. I see on your list that you've done all of the Metal Gear games except Rising and Survive so I assume you're suggesting this removal due to not wanting to have to do Survive to maintain a full series completion of Metal Gear. I will add that the series isn't called "Metal Gear Solid" on this website, but rather "Metal Gear", but I think you could maybe have your way by instead suggesting a separate series named "Metal Gear Solid" which will include all the games you've done without including Survive and Rising. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Nightstream88 Posted November 10, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted November 10, 2020 You could always just pretend the game doesn't exist. I do that with the Legend of Zelda CD-I games. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarcusPunisher Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 Hey, I would also love to remove any trace of Umbrella Corps, but it's a part of RE series and there is nothing that can be done with that unfortunately. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shua_J Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 I vote to remove Anthem from the Anthem series...then replace it with Doom and the Doom series and then call it the Doom series. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deceptrox Posted November 10, 2020 Author Share Posted November 10, 2020 (edited) I was kinda expecting these kind of answers but I didn't expect them to be completely unanimous. I haven't played the game but I watched the release trailer and even if my opinion doesn't matter for me it will never be a Metal Gear game. The game might be fun and I may even give a try (on an alt account) but my disdain for adding "Metal Gear" in the title won't go away.

Of course. These are the same people asking Fallout 76 to be removed from the Fallout series because everybody jumped on the bandwagon on hating Bethesda when that game was released. Metal Gear died when Hideo Kojima left Konami and moved on to make Death Stranding. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Going deeper: Fallout 3 and Fallout 4 + 76 have nothing to do with Fallout series (especially spin-offs) and MGS died on MGS 3. Going even deeper: Fallout can only be isometric and non-2d Metal Gears are not canon. You can continue with it endlessly. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bikeman223 Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 (edited) I wouldn’t worry about it. Personally I don’t think there’s much to completing a series on this site if it means you have to 100% complete the duds or every single stack of the same game. For example if I 100% completed The New Colossus, I wouldn’t feel the need to do it again on the German version.

Exactly. The only reason why Survive exists is that Konami tried to milk the series but failed. Edited November 10, 2020 by Deceptrox 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have 100 percented the New Colossus and I feel zero need to do the German version even though I've done the Mein Leben run on this account and my alt. for streaming purposes in order to have a live trophy drop. If the game doesn't appeal to you...I fully support you following your motivation and not playing it. My 2 cents. Dude...the trophies you have gotten for the Metal Gear series are great. Move on to something that motivates you. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cckerberos Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 30 minutes ago, Spaz said: Bullshit. True. Honest question (because I don't know the answer): were any of the creative voices behind the original Fallout games involved with the Bethesda games? Because the argument here seems to be that Metal Gear Survive isn't a "real" Metal Gear game because Kojima wasn't involved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you played it? I know for sure it has nothing to do with The Phantom Pain storyline nor the rest of the canon. I suspect it has something to do with the skulls/parasites but with a lacking story if it has one. The only valid reason to maintain "Metal Gear" in the title is if a Metal Gear or similar weapon makes an appearance, and the plot or a big part of it revolves around it.
