An unofficial fan project titled Substance of Subsistence is bringing a third-person camera to Metal Gear Solid 2: Substance.
CG writes: Modder oct0xor released the rather excellent Metal Gear Solid 2 Substance third person mod yesterday, which allows you to experience the game without the forced camera angles/perspectives. It does take a bit of getting used to and would benefit greatly from having a first-person movement option when aiming especially with regards to boss battles. However, it does breathe a new-lease-of-life into this now aged game which originally launched on November 13th 2001 on Playstation 2.
Mike from Gaming Respawn tries a non-lethal run on the OG Xbox version of Metal Gear Solid 2: Substance in this week's Retro Respawn.
It's the final part of our Metal Gear Solid trilogy, in which John and Stace discuss the qualities, themes and design of Metal Gear Solid 2's opening Tanker sequence.
Has there been a better opening to video game sequel?
This brings joy to me. What a way to revisit such a classic in 2022!
