See what I meant? Not worth discussing. Move on.

It's just a series of "but ~I~ think he isn't wrong" and that's garbage, I shouldn't even have mentioned it. Sorry.

Does anyone have an answer to my question? It got lost in the other discussions

I don't think many would do that instead of the other, more obvious path to more content, which is why nobody has replied, I guess.

What about A2? She is literally skintight booty shorts with her gstring pulled high.

To be fair I don't think A2 is wearing any clothes at all?
Or more specifically it seems like she's wearing a quarter of an burned apron and rest of the "clothes" are just painted/grafted on.

But I also thought every Raiden design (MGS2 > MGS4 > MGR:R) got progressively cooler and cooler which is prob a much more goon-harmful opinion :frogbon:

MGR convinced me that high heels give you a real combat advantage.

Personally, I like picking female protags in 3rd person games because if I've got to stare at a butt for hours on end it better be a sexy one.

That's the reason why Raiden's rear end in MGR is so good.

Wait a minute...!
Nobody actually knows what's behind the secret closed doors with apologetic suicide robots in front of them?

It's not that nobody knows what's behind them, you can never actually get in. That being said, I was watching a speedrun and someone managed to clip inside by using some wacky out of bounds poo poo and it was a regular elevator inside with no actual pushable buttons and it doesn't actually go anywhere so they had to load a save because there was no way out. People theorize it's how you'll access any future DLC if there is any

Oh...that's kinda disappointing. I was expecting a super secret super thing or something.
Since the doors were pretty well hidden and all.

There's definitely going to be at least one piece of DLC though.

So I finished Ending B and moved onto the third playthrough and I wanted to know, what exactly are the mechanical differences between A2 and 2B? I know A2 has berserker mode, a taunt instead of light charge attacks, and a different dash (though I'm not quite sure what it means when she turns red at the end of it), but I don't know if there's anything more subtle I'm missing.

If you charge up her dash (she glows red) you're supposed to get a brief damage boost.
At least that's what the internet told me.

Is there any deeper meaning to the Bosses' names? I expected them being translated in B onwards would be important in some way, but unless they're all references to something that went over my head it wasn't really anything.

You will find out their names starting from Route B and you also will get more information about them, especially if you do side-quests.

Oh, additional question for anyone who has access to chapter select:

The Goliath Tank you fight in the amusement park has a hatch on the back that you can jump on top of and pull out its core with the circle button. It looks exactly like the cores you find inside the Resource Collectors, could someone see if you can specifically hack the core and if it tells you anything cool? I would do it myself but I wiped my save and am still replaying Route A.

Hacking that doesn't do anything interesting.

Was about to ask for this, thank you. Related question so route C spoilers:
How did A2 beat them? 042 was talking poo poo about her not getting it, but I don't understand it either. :(

By letting more and more machine intelligence "parts", represented by the holo girls, gather in the same place without destroying them she eventually caused them to start arguing with each other.
The logic being that if there are enough of them hanging around in the same place some parts will start arguing with each other eventually.

I'm just sad there's not a small chance of Emil casually driving through or around in the A/B final boss fight and cutscenes. That would really set the mood!

He can totally drive by when A2 is having an emotional scene with Devola and Popola.

Incidentally I also rode a moose into the Route A boss "arena" and he totally was in the way of everything, including standing between the boss and the camera during some cutscenes.
