Status Updates From Metal Gear Solid

idfk what to think man. Every single twist is spoiled. Benson believes it's cool to throw in references from future games (like otacon telling snake about emma, as if that doesn't totally retcon the fact he didn't know otacon had a sister in mgs2). I may be too woke and I get that these were different times but often the way women are described in this book makes me go eough, PLEASE stop mentioning cleavage ftlog

a lot of interesting narrative decisions so far. Yes this one surprisingly is not like the mgs2 novelization in the sense that it DOES alter some story elements. So we're told from the get-go that someone broke into kaz's home?? And that naomi's a double agent?? Idk how to feel about this. These were meant to be major plot twists. There's no element of surprise anymore if we already know this stuff

HOORAY SHE/HER PRONOUNS FOR DOCTOR CLARK!!!!! very happy about this since I didn't know how many games the author had played before writing the book, I have to admit I was anxious when I read the name "dr. clark" because the character in question is only mentioned a FEW times (very vaguely too) and it's only around mgs4 that you find out she's paramedic. At least this dude played the games and knows his shit
