[@heathenpride7931]

Joacoo c: That quote is ironic considering Solidus is arguably the least memorable Snake. Hell, he’s even the least memorable villain.

[@jaytiller7107]

Heathen Pride Because he was never really a villain. He wanted to put an end to the Patriots. ALL of the Plant Chapter happened BECAUSE of the Patriots, from the beginning to the very end. The Patriots pinned Solidus and Raiden against each other, due to Raiden's nanomachines being connected to Olga's future child, Sunny. Therefore, in MGS4, keeping Raiden alive was a HUGE priority throughout that whole game, cause upon his death, Sunny would have immediately fell-- I'm digressing from the topic a bit much. Point is, Solidus was never a villain; He was a puppet, a pawn under control of the La li lu le lo, and he wanted to be remembered as the man who put an end to their twisted regime, being remembered as an exon of history instead of an intron.

[@JohnSmith-co1zv]

Heathen Pride The least memorable snake? he sure as hell has the least appereances, so it isn't a fair argument. He really was one of the more memorable villains overall, because of his motivations and this entrance.

[@heathenpride7931]

Pedro Juan I guess he’s better than Skull Face, but that really isn’t much to brag about. The others, though? Venom Snake, Big Boss, Liquid Snake, Liquid Ocelot, and even The Boss were more interesting, if not compelling. George being an anti-villain is compelling, but aside from the vanilla ass Skull Face I’d still prefer the other villains.

[@JohnSmith-co1zv]

Heathen Pride Well it comes to personal preference really, I never really liked Venom because he felt shoe horned in the lore and had no identity of his own, also him existing never affected the story in any way shape or form, IMO made it worse, more convoluted (if a random unnamed guy can match Big Boss in Skills why not clone him instead? bonus that he most likely can reproduce and there didn't need to be more Snakes) , The Boss wasnt really the main Villain, it was Volgin who's not really a deep character at all, he is a James Bond villain. Solidus was right in most of what he talked about and was the first to opose the greater scope villains that were the patriots, and also had some of the best lines in the series (0:48), he's memorable for that IMO. Also I've heard people talk about how you fight the dual katana wielding expresident elder clone brother of Solid Snake in an exoeskeleton with tentacles who you fight a top of federal hall, when describing MGS.

[@hidan407]

1:48 I love how it shows both of their Super soldier abilities. Snake can do headshots easily in a moving helicopter without using the scope, solidus can see and block bullets despite the heavy wind from the helicopter that should be messing up his vision a little.

[@GeneFOX70]

More impressive is how Solidus can dodge bullets like Snake in Twin Snakes then gets hit in the face with a grenade launcher and takes no damage.

We deserved to know more about Solidus. Really a shame they never expanded further on his role in the series or his backstory. All we know is he's the "perfect clone" of Big Boss, served as President, and was involved in the Liberian Civil war in the 90's. Oh and how could I forget that he was heavily involved with Shadow Moses. So interesting yet we never learn more! Is there anything deeper with his lore?

[@galten7361]

Kojima didn't intend to continue the series after MGS2. Solidus within his game wasn't any less elaborated upon than Liquid was in his (whose "return" was pretty much not relevant to MGS2's plot and more about playing with the player's expectations combined with Kojima wishing to do more with him with Kojima ultimately regretting the decision anyway). It was MGS4 through Liquid Ocelot and Phantom Pain that gave Liquid much of his post-MGS1 elaboration. Solidus was always tied more strongly to Raiden (who was a polarizing character) than Solid and he was overall something of a third wheel to the Solid/Liquid with Big Boss/Naked team so none for him.

[@sisepuedemaybe]

Raiden doesn't even recognize the previous commander in chief

[@jakandratchet9930]

There's actually a reason for that. Raiden's memory of his past life was altered and suppressed, through implanting his cerebral cortex with a high concentration of nanomachines.

[@jakandratchet9930]

Though you know what's something I find more funny? That Solidus barely recognized Raiden till later, he remembered he did know him somewhere before, but didn't realize or remember who exactly he was till later. Though then again it's been over a decade since he's last seen him, and raiden's grown as well since Solidus last saw him.

@@ArtursOffice Yeah Solidus is badass without a doubt. But not with those lines. He was referring to himself trying to act as if he's Solid Snake, not knowing Solid will appear the next second.

[@desolatortrooper7196]

@@yourmum69_420 well Solidus and Solid don't rant about Big Boss 24/7 and both pretty much want freedom for everyone. The main difference came from the fact that Solidus is ruthless. While Snake had a tranquilizer gun for the marines in the Tanker Solidus don't mind slaughtering the navy SEAL if necessary. As far as i'm concerned in MG1 and 2 Big Boss wanted to create a military state that could ve a refuge for soldiers so they aren't just pawns to greater power. Meanwhile Outer Heaven would have been a mercenary nation, armed with nukes so it can't be attacked and could counter balance the Patriots influence. Same thing with Liquid. For me Solidus is mostly Solid Snake personnality/belief but with Liquid methods. But after it is what is Solidus as a character. A mix between Solid and Liquid. Solidus is a state where matter go from Solid to Liquid. Just like the character who was a pawn and later turn into a rebel against the Patriots

[@enigmafan7131]

One thing I liked most about Solidus is despite all the fucked up shit he did. You can see that he clearly loves Raiden. It's obviously breaking his heart to have to kill him, but in his view he's saving the whole world from slavery by doing so, and even though he has to kill him to stop the patriots(his life purpose) He can't bear to do it in cold blood and gives Raiden a chance to win. All these things make him the best villain(and possibly character in general) in the whole series.

[@VirtueInEternity]

I mean, he killed Raiden’s parents. I understand what you are saying but love is maybe the wrong word. Perhaps he is obsessed with Raiden because he “created” him

[@user-pi1lb4tf2f]

Umm no. Just no. Solidus at best respects Raiden as a soldier. He is ready to kill him but would want Raiden to kill him just as much. They are Emulating the legendary Big Boss vs Solid Snake as Raiden stands as "Solidus' Son". Solidus is a psychopath but he is a product of being a tool from the beginning. He is fighting his fate for his own life. Unlike liquid or Snake, he was already seen as Big Boss' spare while the two could still live as Big Boss successors until the advanced aging would start and the patriots completing their "evolutions" no longer needing the Big Boss' legacy.

[@graylyhen9490]

@You Tube umm no just no sweetie 💅

[@theta_clips]

@@user-pi1lb4tf2f How is Solidus a psychopath lmfao, he doesn't kill without feeling and he definitely isn't doing it for his own enjoyment, he has motivations, dreams, goals, and aspirations, and to say that he doesn't care about Raiden at all (perhaps love is too strong of a word, but he definitely has some tender feelings for him, considering he *did* raise him) is just ridiculous. Like the original commenter said, Solidus doesn't just execute Raiden, he gives him a chance to fight back and win, because it's not just his own feelings that dictate that action, but the fact that according to Solidus' own values, Raiden deserves a chance to prove himself and break out of the shell the Patriots created for him, much like himself and Big Boss' image.

[@user-pi1lb4tf2f]

@@theta_clips Solidus Killed the parents of those he chose to train to be killers. No matter the goal, no person in normal capacity gets to do that. He is deeply disturbed. Probably as disturbed as Eli as we see his anger is enough to overpower Psycho mantis as a child. He didn't give Raiden a chance to fight back, there was just no more fight in him. Ocelot betrayed him and the whole big shell incident is a patriot's simulation. Raiden will kill Solidus no matter what since they got Rose and Sunny. Solidus will simply surrender or just finish what he started against Raiden as they mirror the battle in Zanzibar(Snake vs Big Boss). He simply fought as his moment as a "soldier" but there is nothing to it anymore. He was a pawn then, he is still a pawn now. He is also suffering from a faster advanced aging than Snake so he literally had so little to live even if he chose to surrender. His fight was for naught and now he just wants to prove himself that he will at least die a soldier. But in no way is he giving Raiden a chance. They're both "monsters" created by Patriots. Even after Solidus' defeat Raiden felt nothing that everything is just a game until Snake convinced him otherwise.

"THEY GOT MY EYE" always so funny to me

After he says that, and goes on to say "Vamp, go!" If you look close his eye is still there. Guess they forgot to edit that part lol

this was so goofy yet feels epic

[@TheLuisberg]

Okay everyone! Listen up!!! Solidus is snake is not Venom Snake!! The real Venom Snake died in 1995 a few decades before MGS1!! Now the other reason why Solidus appears older is because he was bio-engineered that way. As mgs4 will later tell you. Later on , Solidus and liquids bodies are used as spare parts for Big Boss who was badly burned beyond recognition in 1999 by snake himself. Venom snake is already dead

Yep. Pretty disappointing

[@spiral-vp7sp]

This is so Badass I’m not sure why they can’t make a live action movie of MGS1 and MGS2 this is the greatest cutscene ever

[@RaytheGrayt]

Most of the time video games just get it right, and it usually looks shit on screen with actual people. Probably because it was accompanied by the actual creators, whereas live action always have some third party person that want to do something "a little extra" and blows the whole thing to smoke.

Yeah, he suddenly dissapears in the middle of the story and that solid snake guy replaces him, I wonder what's up with that?

How badass do you want your introduction to be? Solidus: Yes.

As Phantom Pain draws nearer I find myself wishing Cygan has voiced Big Boss from the start and not just for plot reasons. He obviously does 'imposing' well but could he do the younger more naive Naked Snake? I actually think he would have done a better job Than Hayter tbh. A lot of Snake's weakness for the boss is left to our imagination due to Davids rasp not having a lot of range. Personally I think Cygan would have smashed MGS3 as Snake,

[@TheSkully343]

Cygan as Big Boss would've made perfect sense considering that Solidus was pretty much Big Boss in all but legitimate birth.

[@JohnSmith-co1zv]

Solidus-Skully I honestly think all the Snakes should have had the same voice regardless of the voice actors like the JP version, in JP Raiden and the player actually think Solidus is Solid Snake before he reveals himself.

[@sroth2021]

Whenever I'm struggling with technology or something starts malfunctioning or going haywire to this day I can't help but channel the spirit of Solidus and in my head I hear 'STUPID MACHINES!!! NYAHHH!'
