Overall it seemed to lose that 007/MGS vibe and by the halfway point turned mostly into an annoying stealth section which I managed to break the last part of with the time stop hat so. Then came act 4, with an astonishing lack of checkpoints and a timed segment.
4/10 imo, it had a strong start and shows a remarkable amount of modding skill but I can't get around the annoying level of references, not homages and not parodies, references. I wish I could have seen what this team could have done were it not so seemingly obsessed with doing other games' concepts ala New Vegas: The Frontier. If you want to take this critique as me hating or something like that feel free to I guess
I find it disingenuous to say this mod is "Perfect" as several comments have. The first mod didn't overstay its welcome and was based pretty much around 1 joke. The sequel mod however seems to have started to take itself way too seriously. Or it doesn't and I can't tell because the tone is as focused as a grade school kid. Referential humor also isn't really my thing, so that lost something for me. It was everywhere, just to list some of the ones I remember immediately:
- Mithrix (Like... All of Mithrix, down to some of the lines outright)
- Eggman
- Taboo (From smash bros brawl but could be wrong about that one)
- Zero 2 from Kirby
- Metal gear at minimum twice

Unfortunately, there are some things which makes playing it very tedious and reduces the fun significantly. The biggest problem:
- So many softlocks. I probably got stuck in every single act. In act 3, the boss got stuck in a chase sequence which required me to play the entire act again (where are the checkpoints?) :/
I know the mod should not be easy but please put a ton of checkpoints in it. It is neccessarry if you get stuck to reset yourself!
Beyond that, this mod's been going great. The Gatekeeper Ocelot duel was a big highlight for me - I love that fight in MGS3.
However, I did enjoy the mod; I sure hope there's more coming soon! Thank you for making such a great mod (and its predecessor)!
