Today’s game is some more Metal Gear Solid 3. Today is gonna be quick because I basically had to backtrack after getting forward a bit because of some save issues. But despite that I realized this game has a lot of cool ass secrets that actually affect the game.

Like I went off the beaten path and found a sniper rifle. Completely out of the way. No message pointing me there. Just a completely random sniper hidden.

::: spoiler Spoiler What really is cool though is what it’s used for. If you have it the game basically gives you a clear line of sight to take out The End. You don’t have to fight him later that way.

That’s what I ended up doing. I popped a cap in his head and he blew up. I feel a little bad because it’s my first playthrough. But also having just found this completely on accident I had to do it. :::

I also wanted to bring up the stealth. It’s really grown on me. Having to use the camo and slink around feels really good. I do feel like I lack any good ranged stealth weapons (suppressor broke fast) but it does make it satisfying to to a CQC Takedown. Just crouch up behind them and take them down.

Anyways, after discovering that secret today I had to share it. I love when games have secrets like that and this is no exception
