Have your thoughts on the series changed over the years?

When my buddy moved nearby we decided to play through nearly all of the games for the lead up to Delta, mainly because even though he’s a huge fan he never actually played mgs1. I think mgs3 is still my favorite and am now aware that this is heavily due to nostalgia because I know objectively think mgs2 is the best in the series by far
