Though there have been plenty of remakes over the years, Metal Gear Solid 3<\/em> stands out as one of the strangest. Not only does it begin with an intermediate chapter, but it also lacks the involvement of its original creator. The new version, titled Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater<\/em>, doesn’t have a release date yet, but Konami has continued to reveal surprises. Most notably, the third-person camera choice will impact both gameplay and difficulty.<\/p>\n In a recent interview with Famitsu<\/em> (translated by Automaton<\/em>), Production Producer Noriaki Okamura and Creative Producer Yuji Korekado talked about the remake’s improvements over the 2004 original. The highlight is the new “New Style” camera, similar to the third-person mode from Metal Gear Solid 3: Subsistence<\/em>, but now much closer to Snake\u2019s shoulder.<\/p>\n You can only choose once which camera mode you\u2019ll play with. You won\u2019t be locked into the new style if you prefer the classic look, as players can choose between Legacy Style<\/em> or New Style<\/em>. However, you can\u2019t switch once you\u2019ve made your choice, so you\u2019ll be stuck with your decision for the entire game.<\/p>\n The reason for this restriction is related to difficulty. According to Korekado, the “New Style” makes the game easier by offering a wider field of view and the ability to shoot while moving. The improved AI and Snake\u2019s more responsive controls also make the experience more accessible.<\/p>\n On the other hand, Legacy Style<\/em> offers a gameplay challenge similar to the original Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater<\/em>. While it benefits from the remake\u2019s updates, the classic perspective will offer a more difficult and tactical experience.<\/p>\n
