Yeah, when I said above you that people still dress as Quiet? I was contrasting it in my head with how Yoko sticks out now....because she's rare these days. I don't think when I see Quiet cause it's still around.

This.

Cosplay what you want. You never know when you'll make someone's day when dressed from their favorite series. I can't really blame the people who are truly excited for FOTM, but you can tell when costhots are just jumping on it as the hot trend.

>>tfw you will never see a haven trooper or Quiet cosplay

Haven Trooper we never saw more than a couple ever in history. Quiet still gets cosplayed every other con, you might just be going to the wrong cons.

>mfw at least 2/3 of all Quiet cosplayers don't even play MGS

One of the most common 90's cosplays I see. Probably third place after Eva's and Bebop's. (Admittedly I'm being rigid and defining this as "started and ended in that decade)

Death Note is one of the most consistently popular series of that entire era, for cosplayers.

>>10844111
Yeah because outside of actually trying to dress up as a Shinigami, every lazy austimonaut wound up cosplaying as L or Light.

>0-effort cosplay

I feel this is something that really turned me away from the hobby as a whole, it's sadly the nature of the beast that majority of cosplay is done based on whats popular at the time. The fact no one really attempts the more impressive options as often with the flavor of the week, has bled my enthusiasm.

Because normies and attention whores will always goes for the easy and trendy stuff. Quiet could be a good way to justify wearing a slutty cosplay but she's not a FOTM waifu and the Haven Trooper design, or any tactical design really, is way to much work for these someone as lazy as them. Beside I don't think they'd be the kind to want to hide their face.

You're absolutely right. To cosplay a haven trooper would take a real metal gear solid fan, and the work to reproduce the parts, get what can be purchased ready like holsters and weapons... ain't for everyone.

>>10906080
Big Boss is definitely the most-cosplayed Metal Gear character, but in my experience it's almost always the iterations from 3 or V. It's rare that I encounter PW Snake, and I don't think I've ever seen PoOps or GZ in real life.

>>10908443
I'm thinking about doing GZ or the sneaking suit from PW next but also wanna refine my current setup.
PW Snake is probably my favorite where he is in his life. He's independent but not totally jaded yet. I mean he gets that way over the game and then especially GZ.
Also the PSP models make things a little more forgiving and I can use my imagination to fill in parts. I gotta work on the deltoid armor.

>>10825168
Your favorite IP being popular in the cosplay community is really not a good thing even if tactical butts are awesome. To give you a personal example I'm a big fan of the SCP Foundation but the cosplay community surrounding it, in my country at least, is filled with secondary who openly admit that they don't consider the official website to be canon. They don't even try to add some cool details for the specific MTF they choose to cosplay it's always the same boring all-black tacticool operator cause they don't wanna put any work. There's not a single D-Class, scientist or even any popular humanoid SCP like 049 or 035. Lack of relevancy is the price to keep the leeches out of your hobby.
