Hey all,
I just started to play MGS4 for the first time and I'm already a little frustrated with the pace... KEEP IN MIND I just started playing, so please don't mention anything about the story or characters. I'm looking for a breakdown of the gameplay vs cutscenes so I can know what to expect.
For example:
Cutscene (13:48)
Gameplay (~short)
Cutscene (6:12)
Cutscene (2:31)
Gameplay (~medium)
Cutscene (16:58)
Gameplay (~long)
Cutscene (8:11)
END OF CHAPTER
Cutscene (5:31)
Gameplay (~medium)
etc, etc, etc
I just can't stand playing the game thinking I'm going to PLAY a game, only to find myself watching a movie for 30 minutes. Then I'm like OKAY SWEET, LETS PLAY... for 3 minutes... and then I'm watching yet another cut scene unsure if it's 5 minutes or 30 minutes.
My initial solution was I downloaded a torrent of all the cutscenes and would check out how long each one was everytime it'd come up in the game. Problem though: a) Sometimes cutscenes play back-to-back or even back-to-back-to-back! b) This doesn't give you an idea of how long the gameplay is (i.e. expecting to play after 20 minutes but instead it's 30 seconds of gameplay between two 20 minutes long cutscenes)
Hopefully you guys understand my problem here, any solution is helpful. I've looked everywhere online but cannot find what I need.
Thanks!
