Oh, but about what you were saying above, it doesn't actually demonize BB or make him into a devil for doing this to the guy. It just tells you "this is what he does" and leaves it up to you to decide what that says about him and what that makes you feel about him. Some people take it in a more positive way: that this guy, and by extension you the player, get to become part of the legend.

I don't know how to feel about that. On one hand I think it's an interesting move to just tell the audience what happened and leave them to their conclusions, but on the other Kojima told us that this game was going to be about Big Boss becoming a villain. To get only a hint of that at the end of the game, even if it does have rather massive and disturbing implications, just sounds cheap to me, and like a cop-out.

IDK. It probably works better than it sounds, and I know that experiencing it personally would much much better than just hearing about it, but this was not the story I wanted. (I sound like an angry ten year old, I know, lol.)

after everybody and their mother on Mars had either heard about it from somebody or figured it out from the trailers three years ago

I expected it from the trailers, but basically wrote it off as impossible because "There's no way Kojima would do that to us, haha." Then I played through the prologue and was like, "Shit, it's true" and immediately turned my Xbox off and haven't felt like going back to it since, lol. I'm not sure if I think he should've done a better job hiding it or not. I think I would be even more upset if I had played for 80 hours, got to the end and been shocked by it.

it's about how his legend gets bigger than him.

In theory, I have no problem with that...but I'm apparently hung up on this and still believe the game could've explored that without actually leaving you playing as someone else.

Anyway, it's a good thing that you liked the game! I'm not trying to take that away from you, though it probably sounds like it with all my moaning! Someone SHOULD enjoy the game, and it's got great reviews so you are definitely not the only one.
