@skellythos The thing about the whole "goes against your morals" principle is that I'm not saying "Quiet's design makes all of MGSV wrong" I'm just saying "I disagree with this specific design choice of MGSV". Because games, like any media really, are more complex than that. There are bound to be groups of things we agree or disagree with, things that do or don't work with us. It'd be plain silly if I never played a game like 999 simply because of a character like Lotus's design http://www.creativeuncut.com/gallery-21/art/999-lotus-concept.jpg because I love 999 and think it's an absolutely fantastic game. I just think it's important to acknowledge these kinds of things in our games and media, because they're reflective of larger underlying cultural conversations that are important to have.
