Seems you're in luck
Equally sparse are the game's story elements. Beyond an outlandish, action-packed opening sequence - The Phantom Pain is a remarkably economical affair, telling its tale of '80s cold war subterfuge through snatches of radio dialogue (courtesy of Ocelot), and the occasional return to Mother Base between missions. It's fascinating to see such restraint from Kojima, a man well known for his self-indulgence and excess.
unlike most open world games, happy to bury their middling mechanics beneath an excess of window dressing - The Phantom Pain's strength is in the way it confidently allows its wonderful, fiercely-refined systems to come to the fore. Metal Gear Solid 5 is a game that delivers its singularly ambitious vision - absolute freedom within the stealth genre's familiar framework - with laser-focussed clarity.

That preview ticks all the right boxes for me. Sounds great.
