10 Tiny Details In Games That Made Them So Much Better
2. Dangerous Wires - Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain
It’s a list about meticulous, generally unnecessary details buried in great games so, yeah, Hideo Kojima is getting another look in.
In this instance we’re taking a closer look at the power lines in The Phantom Pain, and so should you because they’re a pretty handy tool. You can snap the lines by shooting them which cuts the power to anything they’re connected to. Additionally, if a soldier wanders into the vicinity of a fallen wire while it’s raining in-game they’ll be electrocuted.
The touch of realism is a nice inclusion and given this game is all about adapting your approach through the deductions you’ve made by surveying your surroundings, having a new option to consider is a welcome addition.
