I actually met david hayter at a con a couple months back. He was super nice to me. I sadly only had enough money for a video with him (which is on my channel) but after we filmed it I brought out my game (metal gear solid legacy collection) and starting talking about how much i loved the first game so far (i just started playing it) he looks at me and asks "you want me to sign it?" I said "yeah but I don't have enough" so he took the game from me pulled out a sharpie and said "yeah well im gonna sign it anyways because i'm cool". After that i saw the line behind me was starting to fill up so I decided to leave i said goodbye and told him i would see him again at his Q and A later he then grabbed my shoulder and said "alright just remember: you're pretty good". I have so much appreciation for him. Edit: For the last 2 years this comment has just fermented. It has not only brought an absurd amount of views to the video with David in question (which for some reason will never beat that stupid idubbbz meme i made in two seconds like 3 years ago) but it has bombarded my notifications with replies either being 1. He sounds so cool 2. This feels like a fake story you would read on reddit Or 3. hE cHaRgEd YoU?! Like the first two I don’t really mind because truth be told it does kinda sound like a garbage “and then everybody clapped” kind of story, probably a result of how much I look up to him and how starstruck I was (even though I tried not to be) but the whole thing of people calling him a loser because he charged me is absurd because 1. Conventions REQUIRE that you charge, it’s how they make money. 2. Its also how the celebrities in question make money. Like from what I remember David lives somewhere in Canada and the convention was in Dallas. What sense would it make to fly all the way down there to not make any money? And 3. Even then he didn’t seem to care too much about the money anyways because he signed my game for free. Anyways David is a decent guy and was really happy I could share this experience with you guys (and on a couple of other metal gear videos because it was just the coolest thing to me at the time) have a good one.

If Ocelot isn't pretending the whole time, there is another reason as to why the arm of liquid could take over his personality from time to time. Ocelot's dad, The Sorrow, was a strong medium who could talk to the dead and stuff. His abilities were not bought, he was born with them and could have passed them on to Ocelot when he was born and thus making him weak to a spirit of a dead man who's arm is attached to you.

By that stage, it was easier. Zero was suffering dementia, SigInt and Paramedic were dead, Eva had left and Ocelot was, well Ocelot. This left the AIs completely in charge. The AIs relied on logic and data to determine what was going on. They had no way of accounting for a scenario where Ocelot stopped being Ocelot, and Liquid was deemed dead. This gave Ocelot an identity that the Patriot AIs couldn't deal with. They can't track him because he's doesn't identify as Ocelot, not does he give tells that he's Ocelot anymore, so they can't even spy and see anyone identifying as such. Where a human could potentially see through it, a computer, sophisticated as it is, is still limited by what the programmers foresaw and thus could not. It was a genius plan. By MGS4, the AIs suspected something was up, as the deceased Liquid was accessing the broken GW system, which is why he needed Big Boss's (Actually Solidus') body, which he knew would happen as far back as MGS, which is why they wanted the body of Big Boss. So yeah, it was actually a stroke of genius, and incredibly likely to work.

Yes and no. At the start it was a blank slate, so it was quite easy for Kojima to develop it further. He is always compromising on his big visions as well, so he likely has more that he wished to do than the budget allowed, supposedly his dream for the first game itself was something far beyond the capabilities of the hardware, something even bigger than MGSV. That means he knew more or less what he wanted to write and he had time to do refine it. The issue is that once he started filling all the timeline, he had to keep in mind previous decisions he might not remember or even made counciously. And as he wrote more, the less leeway he had with the characters shown previously. If anything, that is why there are so many characters and they are all confusing, he had to repurpose characters and introduce new ones without overshadowing the previous ones nor being forgetable themselves.

There's plenty of ways to retroactively include past plots into future ones. Like I bet until the concept of MGS3 started being developed, Big Boss was probably named that simply because he was the final boss of Metal Gear. There was no Venom Snake when MG1 was released. That conveniently allowed for a backstory on how he got that name to be created in MGS3, and for Venom Snake to later be slotted into that role in the first game.

@shawnfields23693 жыл бұрын
I agree. Is there a man out there classier than David Hayter? I think not. But Yuri Lowenthal may come close. He also showed up on a random youtuber's video, cameoing and recommending that person's channel. You know how they say "never meet your heroes"? Well, I think there's always a few exceptions to pretty much any rule, and those are 2 amazingly astounding examples. Thank God for the Metal Gear Series. It's so insane, but it's amazing and like David Hayter said here, it's also a series that's near and dear to my heart. I wouldn't want to live in a world without MGS, or without Solid Snake, or without David Hayter.

The friendship between otacon and snake and even how it was foreshadowed by their "parents" was something I loved. Up until meeting otacon, I felt snake was cold and detached as expected from being an instrument of war. Otacon was the humanizing element for him. And otacon got the resilience he needed from snake. Watching them work together through the series was something I truly admired and looked forward to. I wish we could see more of their work as Philanthropy.

@@Lukeff7 Zero and Sigint had the idea of having Proxy A.I's control the Patriots in Zero's stead to basically rule over humanity based on the "The Boss' Will" which was essentially the unification of all the countries in the world. Zero and Big Boss's interpretation of her will were both wrong as Big Boss believed that her will meant that there were no borders and therefore no loyalty to any state or country but a soldier's paradise where they couldn't be manipulated by their governments like he and The Boss were (which is what Outer Heaven was created for). Zero's interpretation of her will was total unification of all countries and governments, a one ruler of sorts. With the A.I's, AL, TR, TJ, and GW, the SOP system (Sons of the Patriots) was created and operated by the Patriots which by the 2000's were completely under the control of the proxies which were as well overseen by one main A.I, JD. The SOP system basically allowed soldiers to monitor and enhance their combat ability in battle based on their nanomachines. The best example of this was Meryl's fireteam in MGS4 where we see they are very coordinated with one another and fluid in their actions except for Johnny who wasn't connected to their system because he didn't have nanomachines at all hence him coming off as a "clumsy" 10 year vet throughout the game. The SOP system basically controlled everybody under a single will or single "unification" giving fruition to Zero's interpretation of the Boss' Will. This turned bad however when the A.I's completely rid themselves of their peaceful programming of the Boss' Will and instead decided to inflict even more conflict into the world. I believe to stop this, Naomi and Sunny created a worm called FOXALIVE which they used to destroy the proxies and therefore the Patriots at the end of MGS4. This was both a good thing and a bad thing as PMC's (Private Military Companies) no longer adhered to a single will but at the same time the SOP system played a MAJOR role in soldiers lives which is why after it was destroyed, many soldiers suffered from withdrawals. Side note: The Boss' Will was to leave the world as it is and to believe only in one's own goals. Zero wanted to enforce loyalty with the SOP system which was a false "unity", something the Boss did not envision originally in her Will hence his interpretation being wrong. Hopefully your headache isn't as severe as mine typing this but I tried to make it as simple as I could haha

MGS 4 has waaaaay more emotional moments as every thread is firmly tied up, plus you can never beat that ending with the series’ 2 protagonists having one last chat...”this is good, isn’t it?”

People that never played these games: "Wow this is long video explaining the timeline" Those of us that played and beat all these games: "You have no idea, this is only a timeline explained in a very short nutshell."

Phantom pain to me was a masterpiece Story wise. I don't want to spoil it but, Plz play it. Plzzzzzz, i beeeggg. I love how depressing and shocking it was. I couldn't quench with what Kojima did to the big boss / aka. venom snake.
