In a way Sahelanthropus is a pretty good metaphor for MGS5. An impossibly expensive monster that was never finished and ultimately not what its financiers wanted at all.
So I guess that means the Battle Gear is pachinko.

god Snake Eater Pachislot really is comparable to Battle Gear, what a waste.
New lows of Huey are uncovered.
So I’d never really understood the exact reasons why people hate Huey, beyond the obvious.
Now I know. What the fuck Huey.
I disliked him just because he originally seemed super slimy/whiny, then this episode happened.
it gets worse believe it or not
Hueys the worst the only sad thing about his death is he tried to take emma with him

… you know I fucking forgot that when Huey, noted man with no legs, decided to loiter near a swimming pool, he did so with his daughter and thus almost killed her as a result.
This fucking putz scared both of his children just by existing and that’s horrible.

Huey’s clearly a sociopath but after that torture scene it looks like he’s in good company.
I hope there’s some throwaway line explaining why Quiet couldn’t communicate with a pen and paper. Thumb parasites?
I mean, I know the real answer, but I wonder if we’ll get a canon one.
So I don’t know what the in universe explanation is, if anything, but a real life fun fact that might be cool to know; whenever we think words, our vocal chords move as if we’re saying them. Sub-vocalizations are a thing we do all the time, which is why if you’re listening to a lot of deep baritone music it’ll make your throat feel dry/hurty. As such, since you need to think the words you’re writing, writing WOULD trigger the parasites. This is also an explanation for why some people end up “saying what they’re thinking”.
Shooting the big H was probably juuust distinct enough a thing to allow her to do it without really being English. It was a language of violence.

Let’s forget about that asshole and watch the misadventures of Tuxedo Snake

I like to think that the guy who got squirted in the face and gave up recognized Snake and gave up on purpose so he could join.
I wish this game had a mechanic where, if your heroism was high enough, certain soldiers would recognize you and ask to join.

That definitely feels like a mechanic that would be in there if the game was finished.
It already has volunteers, it’s just not in a gameplay altering satisfactory way. Just some extra dudes that pop up at the end of a mission.
Its update time.
Trying to place when these were recorded based on how much weird shit is known about Death Stranding. We know about Jeff Keighly but there’s no mention of poop grenades…
Hold up are the vocal chord parasites just Thetans
I wonder if this LP is going to reach 100 episodes.
Nope, it will be 69. Just in time for Death Stranding.
Okay so, no. Those… things would not be comparable to the vocal parasites. Those are the souls of dead alien ghosts that make us depressed and serve no actual function. Stupid, obviously fake, and horrible an idea. These parasites are like… just a quasi-symbiotic organism.
I don’t want to get to deep into the reeds on this but nothing about the vocal parasites is actually that impossible. Improbable yes, false for real life absolutely, but outright impossible? No, not at all. Parasites in cats can make us love them more just for that as a reminder. As far as like, the actual science behind these parasites… it’s not THAT unrealistic, not necessarily. It’s super weird and dumb and obviously contrived, but it’s not fundamentally Wrong.
