Metal Gear Solid 2 is a Masterpiece

#metalgearsolid #mgs2 #hideokojima An insane deep diving retrospective about Metal Gear Solid 2, it’s creator, inspirations, characters, themes and story. Also a lot of my own personal experiences with the game and fan theory conjuring done since 2001. Basically everything I’ve ever wanted to say about MGS2 over the years Metal Gear Solid 2 is a memetic, prophetic absurd, surreal masterpiece that’s holds a special place in my heart, and we’re going to look at every angle of this Bizarre Adventure. __________________________________________________ Follow me on Twitter: Ascended_Pixel __________________________________________________ Check out these other awesome creators James T Keegan:    / @jamestkeegan   Lily Arciniega:    / lilyarciniega   Harlem Kenway:    / @harlem_maahes   __________________________________________________ Website sources: CNA https://www.cna.org/cna_files/pdf/DRM...
