Invisible Invisible Invisible Invisible walking by the wall (Shy one) the shadows will not fall (Shy one) is silently ignored (Quiet one) discouraged by the noise (Quiet one) living without choice (Quiet one) is a life without a voice When you can't even say my name Has the memory gone? Are you feeling numb? Go on, call my name I can't play this game, so I ask again Will you say my name? Has the memory gone? Are you feeling numb? Or have I become invisible? the dreamers wish away (Hindsight) it's falling on my face (Highlights) the shape of my disgrace When you don't hear a word I say As the talking goes, it's a one-way flow No fault, no blame Has the memory gone? Are you feelin' numb? And have I become invisible? Invisible Invisible Invisible, invisible Invisible, invisible Invisible, invisible Invisible No one hears a word they say Has the memory gone? Are you feelin' numb? Not a word they say But a voiceless crowd isn't backin' down When the air turns red With a loaded hesitation Can you say my name? Has the memory gone? Are you feelin' numb? Have we all become invisible?

Listen, I only have 2 hours on PC but hundreds on Xbox circa 2016 and let me tell you something. This game is living proof that game developers have gone to utter ♥♥♥♥ since around 2020. This game looks better and runs so much better than games being put out for the last five years and is so in depth with content. With that being said, let me say a few things. This was the last game I bonded with my brother over before he joined the military and I started college, it was hands down some of the best times in gaming we shared and brings back so many memories of how satisfied we were building up our separate bases and giving each other pointers to different things. It's so amazing that almost 10 years later, this game literally looks and feels as if it should have been released around today's time and puts so many games to shame. The only MGS game I ever played before this was the first on PS1 when I was around 4 years old, so I have no idea what the lore was and jumping into it with no idea, made it that much more intruiging. how could a very on par mil-sim structured game revolve around extremely fictional lore with some humorous, yet emotional elements added. It really makes for such a fun game especially if you're thinking about picking this up before the new one releases. Also, UE5 is the death of games imo, the whole time I have revisted this game, I have been extremely mad at how developers post 2020 have taken gaming with micro-transactions, skins, same game but reskinned and different developers, same concepts. Although what sets this apart, is all of this is found in game. The best part, is collecting different tapes of music from the 80s and listening to it while being an utter badass mowing down enemies or running through the different biomes. Seriously, this is a huge refreshment and has reminded me why around 2015-2019 was peak in gaming. If you like mil-sim, don't want pvp or multiplayer, a good and intriguing story that's very strange, yet makes up for in combat and traversing, please do yourself a favor and pick this up. I remember being a big ARMA player since ARMA 2 and with ARMA 3 being 2 years fresh, this game felt like the better alternative for me that gave that scratched the specific gaming itch I always craved. Coming back to it, I feel the same. I hope this helps or was interesting to whoever sees this in 2025!
