What's good:
+ The graphics are gorgeous.
+ It has retained much of what I loved in the previous games: It feels like MGS.
+ Gameplay works mostly well.
+ There are many good things in the story.
The bigger drawbacks:
- The story was taken to a bad direction.
- There are some ridiculous things in the plot.
- Environments change too fast: Atmosphere suffers because of that.
- Many of the Acts are too linear. It never bothered me in the previous games but here it did.
- The game is a bit too action-oriented even if stealth does work.
And two lesser minuses:
- The installs are pretty annoying. They're one of the things that's keeping me from coming back to the game.
- Still no Trophies. They've been giving hints about Trophies coming to the game but it doesn't seem to be happening.
As for the final verdict... It's hard to say. Something between 8 and 9 would be appropriate. Let's say...
8.4/10
