Yeah, actually. It's not too long and 90% of the game is action you're in control of. The combat is mostly you and it doesn't have many QTEs.
The story is about a guy named Raiden, who used to be a psychopathic child soldier that was rehabilitated. He works as a private military contractor's security officer to feed his family when a rival company kills his VIP and begins destablizing regions across the globe, and personally injures Raiden. So after being rebuilt Raiden and his company goes after them, discovering that the fight has a lot to do with Raiden's past in the process.
Most of the game is about how Raiden's philosophies and ideals are an excuse that he uses to hide the mixed feelings of guilt and pleasure he feels during wartime, and that how ideologies fall apart when you confront them with the realities of fighting and killing. This comes to a head with the final boss who will being absolutely crazy and silly and over-the-top is also charming, charismatic, likeable and his views actually almost make sense.
It's just a really great fun game and can be incredibly challenging if you turn the difficulty up.

Would it be fun for those who are into Metal Gear? I enjoyed the storytelling and dialogues of 4 original games. And the atmosphere
