This is an incredibly minor point, but it is actually somewhat explained why Sam's sword works on Armstrong when Raiden's doesn't. HF Blades, the games fancy type of sword that gain the ability to cut through basically anything through the use of alternating currents and vibrating at incredibly frequencies, are partially reliant on the quality of the underlying sword. Raiden's is basically a factory made thing designed from the start to just be HF blade fodder; Sam's is suggested to literally be an ancient family heirloom forged in the 16th century by one of the greatest bladesmiths of all time. It's kind of stupid but it's the exact right kind of stupid for a game like Revengeance.

[@tyrannosaur219]

And if the DLC is anything to go by, the sheath’s explosive draw is fast enough to outpace Armstrong’s Nanomachines and cut through before they can reach the area to reinforce it, especially when they are actively reinforcing other parts of his body to enhance his strength for punches and whatnot.

[@TardisPilot2004]

It could also be something supernatural like the sword being sharpened by the lives it took or something. Sam himself is already Big Boss-tier superhuman abomination (remember that, even if his exoskeleton did all the heavylifting for his physical prowess, he's the one who has to perceive and react to everything happening, he has nothing to boost his reaction speed).

@Neo91837 i mean possibly but thats only for cutting off limbs and letting them live, i specifically used the wooden sword and mistral didnt get cut up, since the wooden sword can not slice things even in zangetsue mode. She kinda froze her self, and raiden still goes through his guilt phase and his jack the ripper speach, its just silly to me that they wouldnt account for a pacifist playthrough

[@raikohzx4323]

It's an action game where they very well intend and wrote the story like you're just slaughtering things, rather than intending pacifist runs like the Metal Gear games typically do. The plot thus doesn't acknowledge a "technical" pacifist run.

[@notaspacebatnamedzarthulu5569]

@raikohzx4323 i mean i get that, but its slightly annoying, i still love the game, just kinda weird they didnt even think of it, or if they did, they didnt incorporate anything to account for it.

[@TheFirstCurse1]

If you knew about Raiden as a character then you'd know that his speech and guilt still works with a pacifist run. He killed possibly hundreds as a child soldier and loved every second of it. And you can also consider the events of Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons Of Liberty and Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns Of The Patriots. Hell if you do a pacifist run in Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance it almost makes the theme work EVEN BETTER because you're trying to deny "The Ripper's" existence and run from it, just like Raiden up until that point.

Oh no another clone... Ok now I'm following the first guy again but he's old and... I'M BACK? but then die because of super cancer or something?" Honestly those phantom cigars must be loaded with powerful stuff

[@SteveNorwalt]

To be fair about the "twist" in MGSV, there are a handful of hints to it throughout the game. The real reason this Boss can't speak multiple languages isn't because of some head horn magic, but because he never could in the first place. Ocelot also slightly stumbles through his speech when talking to new Boss in the prologue. Then there's the point where you learn Eli doesn't share Venom Snake's DNA. Maybe the most important clue is that the real Big Boss would never use a fake (phantom) cigar. Also, people had it pretty much figured out before TPP even released, noticing that the medic sounded an awful lot like Kiefer Sutherland. Then when the game came out, they also noticed that Ishmael sounds an awful lot like Keifer Sutherland. They figure out that two plus two equals five, and that pretty much hit the nail on the head at that point.

[@fishyboi98]

I think the fact that MGS5 Snake wasn't voiced by David Hayter or Kiefer Sutherland was the biggest tell.

[@IroquoisPliskin86]

I think if they had to figure out a way for it to make sense for Big Boss to sound like Keefer Sutherland, that was a good way to go about it. But I was hoping for a bit more finality to his side of the story though. I think the story is by far the weakest element of MGS V and it's the one thing that has kept me from going back to it. The gameplay is brilliant, the graphics are stunning (I originally played it on PS3 and the whole time I just kept wondering how the hell this was happening on 2006 hardware.), but the story, man. I had such high hopes and it just fell so flat.

[@shadowLurker4v]

@@IroquoisPliskin86 Definitely agree with that. I wish all the story was as strong as the quarantine block. But that very end felt very final to me in the sense of the theme of the series. Metal Gear was always about identity, its origin and the struggle of reconciling it with our history. Is Snake and Liquid just Big Boss, because they have the same DNA? Can Raiden become Snake just by going through the same things he did? Is there such a thing as individual choice or are we just programmed by the environment?

Hey Nerbit, one thing I wanted to mention In the MGSV segment, you mentioned Volgin/Hothead not having any strength left and sort of just dieing, and I think that's only partially the reason.

3:39:05 you actually _can_ call the chopper to at least 2 different locations, but doing so will cause sahelanthropus to follow it to wherever you send it, assuming it is currently patrolling and not aware of your location. This actually can be used to distract it long enough, since it isnt quite as fast as the chopper, so waiting near one landing zone, while the chopper sits somewhere else, then calling it to you is a viable way of getting out. Thats so far the only way i ever managed to do that mission

Honestly, I think the ending to MG5 is kind of awesome. Kojima made a neverending cycle of war and violence, a Mobius strip of what he fears will happen to Japan, essentially becoming a proxy army for America, which is mirrored almost perfectly in the game. This wasn't your war, but Big Boss manipulated you to do his dirty work, and now Metal Gear's events are set to repeat ad infinitum.

[@TheHulk1850]

That's really stupid though. Not the story of the games, but the context. Kojima thinks that Japan will be a proxy army for America? Well, for one, when you're allies with someone. That's what you do. You go to war for them when someone else goes to war against them, because it's in your best interests. And two, I am pretty sure America protects Japan pretty closely, considering that we have at least one, if not a few military bases there. I dunno, I love Metal Gear, but I don't agree with that. Even if some major war were to break out, Japan is hardly America's chief ally. We'd be more likely to call on Britian or something. Maybe I am overthinking things. I'll shut up now.

[@Lord_Asshat]

Are you actually this stupid, or did you just not think for even a second. The problem is the military presence of America. As they most clearly stated that if one of their soldiers is prosecuted for any crime that will make them serve jail time; they will consider it an act of war. And America has historically speaking never been at peace the fact that you are considered allies could also be seen as "please don't shot me" from who ever is allied with the country version of gold leaf. And whenever you are allied with America they expect you to take part in their bullying campaigns that happen on the regular.

The lack of specification over what actions you can and can't take was actually a pretty common trend for the first Metal Gear.

Your use of stun grenades reminds me of the only time in MGS5 that I managed an S rank on a mission. I can't remember what the particulars of the mission were, only that there were a ton of elite soldiers I could capture, as well as a few VIPs I needed to capture. After a rather horrible time getting past a village, they all were converging in their vehicles to the meeting point and I realized they would all (in two separate jeeps) be within range of a single sleep grenade (I think, it might have been two; this was several years ago). Well, it worked perfectly and I captured every single one of them. Only time I ever used a sleep grenade in the game, but it was one of the most satisfying moments I've had playing a videogame.

Somes probably mentioned it further in the comments, but for MGS 3 and the two people you apparently killed, one of those is from the Phase 2 Shagohod, as you can beat it via stamina depletion with the Ends rifle, or the pistol if you’re insane. Not sure where the second was.

[@Stormtrooper_LP]

I actually found the second phase of shago pretty easy with the tranq pistol. Only switch between rpg to shoot the shagohods treads to make him slow, then running under him to the other side, switch to pistol, shoot the back of volgins head three times, and repeat until he is gone. The second kill was from where he killed ocelot for the Time Paradox and did hit "Continue" instead of exit. Kills that you make always count if you continue.

You mentioned struggling against The Fury, so I figured I’d share some advice that helped me get better at the fight: 1) splitter camo tends to work better than Tiger Stripe camo in this arena 2) CQC works surprisingly well against him. I don’t remember if you can throw him, but you can do the classing punch punch kick to knock down then kick again or roll on him for another hit. Plus just rolling into him when he’s standing will knock him down, letting you get away quickly. Plus, after knocking him over a few times it will break his suit, allowing causing your tranq darts to deal more damage. 3) the middle row of the arena has a lot of pillars instead of a solid wall. This is really good for getting lots of chances to sneak up on him, or for running away from him by getting behind a pillar where his flamethrower won’t hit you. 4) rolling puts out the flames crazy quickly 5) he moves pretty slow when he’s not flying, so don’t be afraid to get to the other side of the arena, and wait while laying down to recover a bit of health. I’ve noticed that on normal he usually does enough damage to barely kill you in 4 hits, so getting that little bit of health to survive to a 5th, or even to get to a 6th is a pretty big deal. 6) you and most people probably already know this but just in case, the camo you get for beating him nonlethally, the fire camo, halves incoming fire damage and prevents you from taking red/hard damage, so in NG+ it’s a breeze.

The uniqueness, weirdness, Variety of gameplay, the historical ties, the politics, great characters, the anti war messaging inside an action game, the meta references to the player through out the references, it's all so... Thoughtful. Certainly far more than most games nowadays. Even if all that fails, it's all so sincerely made by the creators. Not just to make money.
