Despite warnings from Konami, fans are disappointed with the poor state of Metal Gear Solid Master Collection Vol. 1 upon release. The collection, which includes classic MGS games, was plagued with issues such as stuttering cutscenes, reduced framerates, audio problems, and bugs. These problems were already present in previous re-releases of the games. Players expressed their frustration through negative reviews on Steam and Metacritic, criticizing the games for being even worse than anticipated. The original Metal Gear Solid game was particularly problematic, with a locked full-screen mode and a 4:3 aspect ratio. Konami has promised to address these issues with patches, but players are left wondering why these problems weren’t resolved before launch, especially considering the age of the games.
If you’re disappointed with the state of MGS Master Collection Vol. 1, take solace in the leaked footage of the upcoming MGS Delta: Snake Eater remake, which looks incredibly promising.
