Well it doesn't matter to Ender so why should you care?
It has literally no effect on you.

"flaming nipple chops"-Your host, the man they call Ghost.

To say, 'nothing is true', is to realize that the foundations of society are fragile, and that we must be the shepherds of our own civilization. To say, 'everything is permitted', is to understand that we are the architects of our actions, and that we must live with their consequences, whether glorious or tragic.
I literally just said that.

My point is I think her blatant fan service kinda takes away from her.
I'm slow, okay? But if you're not a 13 year old getting a hard-on why give a shit? It really doesn't matter. It's not like you can't just ignore the way she's dressed and move on.

It doesn't bother me because I don't really give a fuck about someones clothing.

Like, I wear T-shirts and jeans almost all the time.

why should i only care about things that affect me

it's really not about the clothing, though
people dress slutty--it's a thing

the issue, obviously, is that she's only dressed like that for fanservice
it's an insult

It doesn't bother me because I've seen enough tits and ass that they don't make me feel any different than looking at her arm or her hair or whatever.

I just personally hate fanservice for the sake of fanservice. Not on the level of Verbby, but it's just something that appeals to the lowest common denominator.

In another MGS game where humor is mixed with serious stuff because Kojima stated before that too much serious shit is bad, it'd fit. MGS 2 for example had a butt naked Raiden. It had humor mixed in with a lot of it, both in atmosphere and story.

Not so much with MGS V. It's constantly serious with an atmosphere that is just as serious. So having a girl dressed in nothing more than sexy lingerie seems jarring at best. Never mind the bit with her taking a shower with you on your birthday and the soldiers are literally saying "Ohhhh she's a bad girl~...", which is just... fucking weird.

Kojima likes boobies, no doubting that (and he's Japanese, and they all love em). It's just how he went about it in this game.

You're missing the entire point :S.

Like, it couldn't be going over your head any higher.

If I'm supposed to feel insulted because someone is wearing revealing clothing for the hell of it, they're going to have to start trying harder.

I was just asking. It's up to you what you care or don't care about.

Yeah, I know what you mean. I'm just saying I don't let it bother me, which makes things a lot more fun for me at least.

Let me be the first to say that MGS V's atmosphere isn't BAD

it's just different

Oddly enough, this felt the least like a Metal Gear game in the entire series if you ask me. I'm not sure if I really like that in terms of story (what story amiright? lol gomen)

She's just a shitty character

She had a lot of interesting story ideas that were executed poorly.

But then, that describes the majority of The Phantom Pain's plot.

I actually keep comparing V's story to Peace Walker and get depressed on how the quality dropped off.

I honestly think open world ruined a lot of it.

no

it's an insult because they're literally implying that you wouldn't give a fuck about this character unless she was so sexualized--that's how most fucking women are treated in media

they're objectified

So yes, shitty.

Game wasn't that bad though. Not something I'd go back to.

Like, I remember Snake in that room about to get executed and IN COME THE MEXICA- uhh... allies who shoot up the place and the MGS PW main theme plays.

I remember BB and the Robut interacting.

I remember Strangelove interrogating BB and getting emotional over multiple things (Strangelove turns me on. Women who can pull off the short hair thing get me excited).


Where was that in MGS V? But that's a whole different story.

There is still humor sprinkled in, but nowhere near the way it was combined in other Metal Gear games. Especially atmosphere.

It's the media, everyone is objectified. God only knows how many times some male celebrity shows up on a magazine cover shirtless. The reason is to attract attention, it's what it does. Just because something grabs your eye doesn't mean the cover is all there is, it just drags you in. You don't judge a book by its cover, but you certainly are going to be more interested in a book with a more attractive title or cover art.
