Metal Gear Solid 1 Compared to the Other Games, Anyone Else Feel the Same?

Last year I finally finished Metal Gear Solid 1. At first, I played it just out of curiosity, but after finishing it, I ended up loving the franchise.

I haven't seriously played the other games yet, though. I've only tried them for a few minutes or a few hours, but I've never actually finished any of them. So far I've played Metal Gear Solid 2, Metal Gear Solid 3 (including Delta), Metal Gear Solid V, and Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker.

From what I've experienced, MGS1 feels like the game that really demands stealth and careful ammo management. In the other games, it seems like you're given so many weapons and so much ammunition, especially in Peace Walker.

Is that actually true, or am I just a noob who struggled with MGS1? 😅

I'm also really excited for Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection Vol. 2 coming out at the end of August. Does anyone else feel the same way?
