I think that's just part of the fiction Snake maintains so he can pretend his life is not a series of bizarre and improbable coincidences. I'm pretty sure some nights he wakes up in a cold sweat after a nightmare about Zanzibar Poisonous Hamsters.

I refuse to believe that you could think that the Zanzibar Poisonous Hamsters are anything but adorable as gently caress.

Look at this guy, never been poisoned by a hamster.

I admit as much. Attached by cats and dogs, sure, but not hamsters, least of all explicitly poisonous ones.

I thought he was pretending all along. loving MGS4. :psyduck:

MGS4 had a lot of things it did wrong, but I don't think that Ocelot trying to get rid of Liquid's ghost was one of them.

Now, taking everything from MGS2 and saying it was "Nanomachines", that was stupid as hell.

it didn't, though. Vamp? only nanomachines part of it was being able to keep resurrecting himself. Everything else, all him.

I liked him being able to run up walls because "gently caress you". I get the regenerative nanomachine powers, I'll accept it, but they kept taking away a lot of the fun, crazy things until it was all just boring explanations.

Everyone in MGR aside from Raiden were too small time for Ocelot to screw over.

I forget, what are the spoiler rules for the main games?

Then everyone who was in MGR aside from Raiden were such bit players, they didn't matter enough for Ocelot to gently caress with them.

The female lead looks weird.

a loving tank

With nothing but Anti-Personnel grenades. Which, I should note, are horrifically ineffectual against that kind of tank.

I'm curious to see how this game compares on the weirdometer to late-game MGS2.

I still don't understand half of that nonsense. :shepicide:

It makes sense if you think about it.

For several years.

Philanthropy Did Nothing Wrong

but Kojima should have stuck with his idea for the ending of 4 where Snake and Otacon were tried, sentenced, and hanged rather than the actual ending he did

His entire team vetoed the idea, so he couldn't go through with it.

I think the idea of Snake simply fading away works better with the themes anyway, so it's probably a good thing they vetoed him.

Agreed. The man created literally for war gets to die a natural death, surrounded by friends and loved ones. All the villains, those who claim war for their own reasons, die alone in the battlefield.

It's somewhat ironic. The good irony.

So he doesn't believe in silly things like psychics, only things like assassination squads trained to work in elevators and cyborgs trained by NASA.

Look, the FOXHOUND training regimen is super weird, but not that weird.
