Does anyone know for sure if the torture "minigame" is harder ot easier in MGS2? Like is it easily doable for a normal person with a normal controller when they couldn't do it in MGS1? Trying to assess whether I prefer 1 or 2 and this might be a factor. Not the time to play through the game just for this right now
i can tell you that i both hate and suck ASS at mashing segments in games and i never have failed any of them in metal gear, so you can take it from me that the difference between any of them is negligible at absolute best
you are not as bad as you think because I wasn't able to get the meryl ending until I cheated on an emulator years later, I must have the absolute worst bottom percentile stone hands.
I've never completed the torture scene in MGS1 legitimately, I always used a turbo-fire controller. But I remember doing it in MGS2 relatively easily in MGS2.
It must be a difference between NTSC and PAL versions or something, I don't understand how it's possible without. I even remember magazines in the UK telling you easier ways to do it because it was so difficult.
it's brutal don't play
Worse than in 1? Damn why is Kojimbo so dumb? This is the worst and laziest "gameplay" you can do. At least we don't have to do it to opene very door and chest and get heals from enemeis like in GoW
Its definitely easier in 2.
You sure? Can you mash slower or is the sequence shorter?
You can mash slower
I think so. I never had a problem with 2 or TS despite beating them both dozens of times. But mgs1 is still a bitch.
I am not joking when I say even using a rapid button click program, it still had trouble keeping up with Solidus' torture on European extreme. How the hell do they expect a human to do that?
if you move your camera and look at Fortune, the choking sequence is easier
True but only barely.
They didn't, baguettes must suffer
European extreme torture is irl torture. good luck, youuuuuu'llllll needed it
I never bothered to beat mgs1 on extreme because it looked tedious. The torture in mgs2 on european extreme is borderline impossible though. It's a shame because the game is a lot of fun on european extreme but that torture section is completely unreasonable
Did Twin Snake make it easier than in the original?
I heard that it's actually possible to hit the button so fast in Twin Snakes that Ocelot will think it's auto-fire and instakill Snake.
Hilarious if true.
The MGS2 choking sequence is a million times worse than MGS1 on the hardest difficulty.
This. Whoever thought this was a good idea for European Extreme should be watered with gasoline and set on fire.
I could easily do 2 and I couldn't ever beat 1.
you can give up in 1, you have to do it in 2 iirc
>you can give up in 1
For the shit ending
well yeah, but since it's an option, that automatically makes it easier is all i'm saying.
