Preliminary: Okay... interesting. A Metal Gear game I've never heard of. The music is great so far but the line of sight abuse is obnoxious right off the start.

I'm on the final of the outside screens so fingers crossed this stops being awful. Good thing the music is so good. I'm finally in the first building and will continue this tomorrow
Day 2
Yea no this is as bad as people said. All the worst aspects of the NES port of Metal Gear with much worse level design
