How can any fan be happy for this news?
The story is over, it's more than over, a new entry to the series means that Konami is ready to crap all over the narrative in exchange for your money. This is commercialization, no longer art.
A new MGS game will most likely;
-Screw up the storyline even more so than MGS4 did.
-Contain less cutscenes and dilute or play down the deep themes of the series.
-Focus more purely on the gameplay aspect.
^^Neither of that would be true to MGS, so Konami should be condemned for not creating a new I.P if they want to keep creating stealth action games. What they are doing is continuing a saga that is already over. How would you feel if your favorite book got an unwarranted sequel as a simple attempt at cashing in on the brand name? You would probably resent the idea, why is it different with a narrative driven video game?
