I bought MGS5 yesterday and I'm really enjoing it. I've played MGS3 on the PS2 before and therefore "know" Ozelot. He seems completly different, but I know the name.

Now I wanted to ask if someone may know a good Video or source to get up to the MGS Lore until Phantom Pain, so I can get most of the references to the characters and the story.

  • The article that LoboDemon provided should get you up to speed, but if you have some time, you could watch Portable Ops - "The Movie" and Peace Walker - "The Movie" - Which are basically all cutscenes from those games cut together (with a little gameplay).

  • 'Ozelot' We must know imagine all of Ocelot's dialogue in an Aussie accent

    I should say that Peace Walker is one of the best entries in the series, and that you should definitely play it if you get the opportunity. The gameplay is somewhat similar to The Phantom Pain and covers Big Boss's initial Mother Base, before it was raided by Skull Face. Portable Ops is "unrefined," for lack of a better term, but by the time PW came out, Kojima made the mechanics he used in Portable Ops much more refined. Commented Sep 29, 2015 at 19:27

    @LucasLeblanc Kojima didn't have anything to do with the mechanics in Portable Ops - he didn't direct the game or do game design for it. He has a producer credit, but that's just because it's a Metal Gear game developed in-house at Konami - he had the same credit on Acid and Ghost Babel, which were also directed and game designed by other people.

  • @recognizer Ah. Well, I suppose he built off of the unpolished but interesting operational mechanics in POps. Commented Sep 30, 2015 at 14:46
