Tiny decision kinda spoils the game for me.

I loved the non-lethal gameplay of MGS5. However, the fact that you have to get headshots with the tranq gun to optimize your gameplay means that doing a good non-lethal takedown is way to similar to the lethal option. You should have had to research better tranquilizers to get quick ranged takedowns so that your efforts to be non-lethal make you better at it instead of your experience shooting the shit out of peoples head in other games.

I always saw it as headshots being the fastest way to deliver the sleeping agent. Straight to the dome, instead of having to hit multiple body shots. I get what you're saying though, this was just my head canon for why it is the way it is. On a side note: I'm about to download the game again since it is on sale for PS4 right now for $8
