Question: 10 Years On: What do you think of MGSV?

I do like the ambiguity of whether Venom's Outer Heaven was merely an elaborate human shield for the 'real' movement that would take form in Zanzibar Land, or if it was indeed a a rival interpretation of The Boss's will that the original Big Boss liquidated to solidify his grip on the cause. In an ideal "the game is really finished and feels like it" scenario, a Chapter 3 or later could deal with that, with both Big Bosses and The Patriots tying in to the three mega-states of George Orwell's 1984 - all locked in a perpetual clash, all having the same goal of realizing The Boss's dream, much like all three in the novel having the same ideology in everything but name. All hypocrites with dirty hands. Always shifting alliances against the third group. Miller's relationship with Cipher is a good example of this.
