Some places are mentioning different 'volumes' being released but I'm not sure if that's complete speculation at this point. I guess the 'Delta' naming hasn't helped.

The problem I have with another remake of MGS (No matter how old the last one is now) is that for me it evokes a very specific type of nostalgia. It's as much about the look and "feel" of the game as it is the gameplay. Ultimately I wouldn't want them to tinker with it anymore than they already did with Twin Snakes. Ideally it should be a simple remaster with a few QOL tweaks. No major changes to the controls, no changes to cameras, the ability to switch back and forth between old and new styles etc.

Every game in the series has been very different from the ones before and each of them brings some new variation on it and I think it's important to retain those distinctions rather than trying to homogenise every game in the franchise to be the same. I know that's not what would be happening, but if I want to play MGS5 mechanics, I've got MGS5 for that. If I want a relatively short, focused, Tactical Stealth Action game I'll play MGS.

I'd rather see an MGS2 remaster before an MGS3 one as well.

I also don't have faith in anyone to recapture that "Kojima" feel properly other than Kojima himself.

I think they've picked Delta because it is represented by a three-sided character. But it's confusing because Delta is the fourth character within its alphabet...

I can kind of understand why they wanted to drop the number 3, but then just call it MGS Snake Eater? Rather then MGS Delta Snake Eater?

If you count the original, subsistence and 3D, and ignore the HD remaster (which is subsistence with cut content), this is the fourth version of MGS3 so actually it makes perfect sense...

Although I'd like to tinker with it less than Twin Snakes ideally

I'm interested if it's good basically.
