"Relativism"
Relativism is the key word to understand MGSV.
As the game itself tells us "there are no facts, there are only interpretations":
this story doesn't have a completely defined narrative, it is up to us to fill in what is not clearly stated and to interpret what happens.
We choose the shape, the color and the weight of the pieces that form the final figure.
That is why Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain is unique in its genre.
It is neither a roleplay-like story nor a strictly linear movie-like story; the decision of what to belive is yours, and yours alone within a pre-existing solid narrative, the one of MGS.
