At least they didn't have you being led to believe you're playing as Kasumi only to discover you're playing as a body double for the whole game and the real Kasumi went into hiding like some coward after awakening from a coma, unlike MGSV with Big Boss and Venom Snake, and then basically screwing up everything else by having Helena randomly turning out as a vengeance-filled harpy clouded with emotion and Christie basically being the voice of reason (which we got Miller and Ocelot in those roles), or heck, making Hayate into a traitor and punching bag for no real reason (like what happened to Huey). And make no mistake, they could have just as easily engaged in that exact kind of character assassination and trashing of the story if they so wanted. This is a slap in the face and a spit in the face? MGSV's storyline was a spit, slap, and smash in the face, the last one with a sledgehammer, meaning even worse of one than DOA6's ever was. DOA5 did but it was very vague. Only certain people that was paying attention would connect the dots and then then put two and two together.

I was one of the very few that actually foreshadowed it, beforehand.
