I choose to believe Kojima had Liquid think that genes are just a good/bad switch because it's easier to explain to the player that way. I mean, could you imagine if there was a second 20 minute stock footage filled cutscene in the span of like an hour and a half of gameplay? That won't happen until at LEAST MGS4! (Also, Dan, I stole your drinking game for my own LP's bonus feature, I'm sorry but it was for the

She's doing that voice that you see people do in TV or movies where they are an American character, but they are doing this posh English accent that makes them sound either smarter or more refined depending on the genre of the show. I don't remember if Naomi actually is English or not. Usually it's reserved for characters who are jerks or knowledgeable mentor type people. And sometimes, uh, the bad guy. I'm pretty sure the accent is gone in Twin Snakes.

Choco1980 posted:Considering Deep Throat was named such deliberately after the hugely popular porno out at the time (seriously, Deep Throat is probably the most successful porn of all time, doing better money than most Hollywood films that year) I think it's okay to giggle at it, because at the end of the day it's a pun (DEEP cover) based on blowjobs.

I've always just figured that the reason they simplified it to dominant = good recessive = bad is because it's easier to explain as a plot convenience than the actual explanation of how dominant/recessive genes work. Most adults learned in middle school how they really work but it'd take TWO half hour cutscenes to explain it that way instead of just saying "we are opposites BUT WE'RE CUT FROM THE SAME CLOTH, YOU AND I" with one half hour cutscene.

A surprising amount of the crazy robot poo poo in the earlier metal gear games actually existed at one point, probably most famously those dumbass flying hovercraft thingamajigs in MGS3. I didn't know that the cyphers really existed but frankly I'm not surprised.

Dan the drinking stuff is fun and while drunk you playing is fun to listen to, it is not very fun to watch. I am probably in the minority with this opinion.

There actually is no Grace, just Solid Dan and Liquid Dan. We haven't heard Naked Dan yet and something tells me when that moment comes I'll be glad he doesn't do facecam LPs.

SSNeoman posted:What's funny is that if they could legitimately mass produce a usable version of RAY it would legitimately be better than REX or Arsenal. Why bother having one invincible weapon when you could just have a swarm of really good ones? As far as I know most modern military tactics rely on having more numbers than the other guy. As the future of the MGS universe shows, that wouldn't really work out too well considering soon there will be super-cyborgs who can cut through them like butter. I find that very interesting, actually- that the MGS world, in its later years, turned the focus from improving on technology controlled by humans to improving the human beings themselves -but we'll get to that when we get to it I guess. Provided Dan doesn't fuckin' kill himself via alcohol poisoning during MGS3 or something.

Choco1980 posted:There's an even more super animal in The Fear's arena: The Tsuchinoko. It's a Japanese cryptid that's a snakke with a human looking face that's fat andd flat. It also doesn't show up on radar. The easiest way to catch it is to kill everything alive in the Fear zone, then set your mousetraps and wait. If it's still in your inventory when you beat the game you get the stealth unit (Dan remembered wrong--hitting all the frogs gives you the infinite bandanna). If he's in your inventory when like, it all gets removed partway through the game you can catch him again near the waterfall cave iirc. Zero's panicked "Under no circumstances are you to eat it! Is that clear? " is fantastic. He knows. He knows drat well Snake is curious.

You two are a disgustingly cute couple. Disgusting. Just vomit-inducingly cute. Also, I feel like this is going much better than Sonic Adventure 2 and you're already Naked Dan after like 1.5 episodes.

Well, technically speaking the characters don't know that. Paz doesn't reveal that until way late in the story, after she has already been sufficiently creeped on by a couple people.

Peace Walker is also the video game that has Miller and Big Boss play-fight naked in the sauna and then take their naked-play-wrestling out onto the deck as described in great detail by Paz, so don't worry, the weird sexual overtones go every which way as is Kojima's MO by now. Unfortunately this extremely awkward and incredible firsthand version of the events is only in the japanese extra disc (it was an audio drama of the game on CD) and was not localized for the english game. I was going to wait to mention this amazing horseshit until way later in the LP but I got antsy and I don't think Dan n' Grace are going to listen to the relevant tapes so oh well here goes! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EaABZqW4DNg CJacobs fucked around with this message at 09:18 on Jan 6, 2016 |
