Rules of Nature (RAY-mix)

-This is how to walk, this is how to attack, kill these enemies and slice the barricade. -Decapitate the Metal Gear that just desitegrated 60% of an 8 floor building, ride rockets and slice another metal gear in half.

Snake: is an iconic, almost universally likable, doesn't become the reason Metal Gear almost died, has a consistent character arc and doesn't regress in characterization just to fit in a narrative of an action heavy Metal Gear game, whilst completing his character arc and not leave a hanging sequel bait. "Your turn, kid."

Part of the reason why this is my favorite remix of Rules of Nature is because it imitates how it sounds like when you fight the thing in-game, not unlike an "in-game mix", and I really dig those kinds of mixes This also happens to be the 7th time I have listened to this in one day, and that's not counting the other versions of this song, help
