I agree with everything you've said. Excellent set of posts.
Personally, I'm OK with Big Boss having a different voice actor for MGSV, so long as the voice actor is Richard Doyle from MGS4 (he did a great job), and Hayter returns as Snake in a future game (If a future game with Snake is made). In fact, I actually wanted this game to feature a different voice after to differentiate BB and Snake as different characters, as having them both with the same voice would have been stupid. If Hayter does not voice SS in a future game, THEN I will be p!ssed off.
Yeah it definitely looks like Kojima is going for a more serious tone this time around, something more realistic, which is good. I think BB needed a new voice actor. As he got older, that was bound to happen IMO, to differentiate the character from Solid Snake. I still think Hayter will return for a future game, IF Solid Snake is featured again. I highly doubt Kojima would cast Solid Snake with a new voice actor. It makes sense for Big Boss, but not for Solid Snake.
Personally, I'm pretty excited for this game. It all sounds really interesting and the ability to tackle missions in many different ways sounds really fun.
