MGS1 isn't TOO crazy.
In true kojima fashion it gets weirder the deeper you go
Sucks for you, I love barely comprehensible fever dreams! Keeps me on my toes, and I find the "is this symbolism or just insanity?" game a pretty fun thought process to have throughout
Not a complaint, but it does raise the entry level for people getting excited about the story.
I think you can enjoy it as a sometimes absurdist rollercoaster. It's not necessary to hang onto every word and understand every bit of symbolism. The insanity is interesting enough and startling enough to get you by on surface level entertainment alone as long as you find craziness fun.
