alt Hacker NewsEveryone focuses on that part, but what the hell was with the girl that could repel bullets but it turns out that it was magnets but actually maybe she does have powers? And what about the weird thing where you start sword fighting your father/president/clone?
Yeah I know, sure, fake information on the internet. It's so prescient I guess, but the actual story is incomprehensible.

apply this logic to john carpenter movies and they fall apart, too.
Escape from LA is just about as absurd, just less paranormal.
Nuclear powered personal submarines, surfing typhoon waves from California plate shifts, transforming bullet-proof stealth helicopters, emp superweapons and engineered DNA-tailored superbugs ( or atleast the claim of them ) , VR replacing reality, Cuba taking over the democratic world after a theocratic US rescension.
it's just entertainment campiness. When I play a Kojima game I just sort of imagine it internally as a video game equivalent to a John Carpenter movie.
A lot of people focus on the whole dynamic of corleone family and their position in American society in the Godfather. But seriously did you see what vito was eating in the restaurant?? Makes no sense
Kojima always has some paranormal activity in his games. And he does like to subvert expectations about what is technology and what is paranormal
That stuff is just silly mostly-self-aware camp to keep the setting entertaining, don't overthink it. Everybody already knows and acknowledges that the series is absurd.
> but the actual story is incomprehensible.
You're almost there. Double the convolutions in your post and you'll finally understand Kojima.
And yes, that chick really does have to be topless, its not sexism. See, she breathes through her skin. Thats why she's such a good sniper
