>>60897919As both a Gundam fan and a MGS fan since the 90s; it's honestly always "new" fans or pretenders who act that kind of way. Most folks kinda get it after a point of playing the games or watching more of the shows.
I don't think people remember how dumb a lot of MGS marketing has been. I'm not gonna dig up some of the old JP commercials, but even the US in it's oh-so-serious 2000s had this dumb commercial for MGS 2.

Kojima loves having a message, putting his soul into his work, and really trying to connect to the audience. He's also a massive troll who loves shit posts and put that Monster Energy sequence into Death Stranding just because it would be funny.
