think the hair being darker is what is giving her a different feel, her bright blonde hair made her pop more

[@Mcpblackheart]

in a game with unrealistic lighting her hi albido colors popped but in Realistic lighting she would not look much better

[@sticc.5483]

Maybe my eyes are just bad but when I look at the side of her head, there’s some hair that’s properly illuminated and imo it looks blonde. I think the darkness she’s in is what makes her hair seem darker.

[@FalconHgv]

​@@sticc.5483yeah, that's most likely it. Does the remake have PBR? Cs2 has had similar problems with its lighting in skins. It's kinda jarring seeing the difference because the ps2 version has this colored filter all over the game. Kinda like how they made the forest not 200% green.

Blonde hair looked terrible on her. It made her looked washed out/faded.

[@thehorrorvoid]

In my opinion, as a life-long MGS fan, when I first saw the Boss reveal, I never once found her new model off putting in the slightest. I don't know why, but I really do like her new model. She looks tired and depressed, which is what I always imagined her new model to look like, given her age and the countless wars she's seen.

[@thehorrorvoid]

42 year olds can't look attractive then? They gotta look old and ugly?

[@kevinkite3418]

She does looks like 42 in both versions in my opinion. I just think the Delta reflects her mental suffering more.

[@WllKiedSnake]

I don't know why they didn't just make her look like she looked in the original and the pachinko game. She looks old now but masculine and not feminine but someone who has seen things and could kick your ass as you are supposed to underestimate her. Yeah! Not a fan of the look. Let's see how they handle Eva.

First I thought this doesn't look like the Boss, but more I checked the details on her face, I began thinking this is how she was supposed to look in the first place (if PS2 was able). She looks worn, tortured and hardened. Her new look also shows her age more appropriately. She has a warrior's face now instead of a Hollywood star. I can easily say from her expression she's ready to sacrifice what remains of her.

[@suza3199]

I loved the boss' original look, genuinely, but I agree with you. This is how she's supposed to look. She is a soldier in her 40s, not a model. Anywho, the trailer played with the contrast, so keep that also in mind.

[@axt2]

100% agree. In the original she looked incredibly young for who she was. We can debate to what degree this was an artistic choice vs. technical limitations but to me she looks a lot more authentic here.

Sweet Baby Inc was also consulting on mgs 3 delta..?

[@2Good2BeTrue45]

The Boss was never meant to have soft features, Boss always had a more structured jaw and clearly had no buccal fat, so she was meant to look more older to pull off the hardened badass look. I always personally felt they wanted to model The Boss after the bodybuilder Cory Everson, who played Atalanta in Hercules The Legendary Journeys. Cory Everson would have made a great live action The Boss I feel thats why they made EVA like they did. To have a character that is literally meant to be the smokeshow, apple of your eye, all American girl achetype, which is why she is able to fool everyone in the game and end up being a double agent.

[@channel45853]

that doesn't make the new remake's design better

[@WllKiedSnake]

I think the look is whatever Kojima wanted it to be. Hence why The Boss looks like she does in the original.

[@lokouba]

I don't think your analysis is too accurate. In MGS3 her eyes are bigger and her nosebone (eye separation) is thinner. Her lips are a little thicker and less wide and her jaw bones are wider. The biggest difference in Delta is that her chin is a lot bigger and i would say kinda bulkier while in MGS3 it's way smaller and sharper. I think toning down her chin alone and making her hair a vibrant blond will make her look a lot better. The other changes are fine on their own.

[@AmelpsXett]

lmao the chin is almost absolutely the same. Its actually bigger in the ps2 version, how are people so blind? At this point you can just start doing eugenics

[@Gareth-1000]

Yup the more I look at it it’s definitely around the chin jaw line area, it’s too bulky looking. Fix that and everything else is spot on 👌🏻

[@RickGrimes807]

You make some good points i agree. I'm under the impression that a major change is that the remake toned down her severe look. She looks less severe by the shape in her eyes, the expression in her eyes/facial expression as well as mouth shape. What do you think?

[@lokouba]

@@RickGrimes807 i don't particulary think her expression changed much cause tbh she kinda always looked like she's dead inside. The changes to her mouth shape in my opinion don't make her look worse.

[@MetalGearTrav]

“Hi Mrs Boss is snake around?” *Long sigh as she puffs a cigarette “He’s inside.”

[@sonsofbiscuits1]

I said the same in a different video. Even though this version looks more hardened, the original has a certain look in her eyes that made her so intimidating. She actually looked like the boss in every scene, and even had Volgin stepping backwards in fear. This version looks tough, and hardened by war, but the original looks like a genuine leader and authority figure.

[@brandonperkins176]

The Boss looks like Glenn Close in 1987 Fatal Attraction! Regardless this game is looking awesome

[@averageanimefanboy9473]

In my opinion the old design was more iconic and suited the MGS tone more. Almost all the good guys in this franchise are looking like models wich make them stand out. Most of the japaneses games made in the early 2000 had very glamorous characters including MGS. For exemple the guy who made the Silent Hill 2 models was working like a psychopath to change every detail he didn't like because he wanted very good looking models. At least the model is not "cheap" looking like the models in the SH2 remake trailers where either the design and the visual quality are bad.

[@OtterMachine]

As a someone who has played MGS3 on release on PS2 and bought every rerelease since I can tell you that this new look for THE BOSS is way off. It does not look like her at all. Disregarding hair colour, I feel her eyes and mouth shape are way too different. She also looks much younger somehow. This new model is not ugly by a long shot but it does not look like THE BOSS. I hope Konami make some last minute changes for us fans.

[@MisterBlackroad]

A lot of it comes down to realism, which they are going for. Natural blonde hair just looks darker when it's wet. Her PS2 eyes appear a bit bigger but I'm not sure how good that would look in these new graphics, it can quickly look off. The Pachinko Boss doesn't look realistic especially due to the eyes, IMO. The mouth could use some work, the original's was slightly more narrow and the lips were a bit fuller. But that's not really something I'd lose sleep over, overall her look is pretty good

[@THEKL7773]

i just feel like shes not blond enoght i always saw her as almost straight up having golden hair

[@idontwant2beasoldiermama241]

When you have Shinkawa and Kojima as the main force for designing characters, there's absolutely no need to change anything. Some clowns are claiming the new boss is better LOL

[@averageanimefanboy9473]

They are saying "it's lore accurate", "it's more realistic" like the game is Arma 3 or even worse "the ps2 wasn't able to do it, she was supposed to be like that". The game is Kojima's idea and Kojima puts unrealistic good looking people looking like models in every single game because they stand out the most. Like tell me Quiet in MGS5 or the BBs in MGS4 are not here because Kojima simps for models. It's like people want to ignore the source media and the ideas/people behind it. You can like the new model, but don't act like it suits the franchise vibe more than the old one when the creator has a kink for glamorous women and don't even hide it to the point the game is unrealistic asf.

[@idontwant2beasoldiermama241]

@@averageanimefanboy9473 I agree 100% with every point you make, Mgs have always prioritized art style over realism.

[@EthanCruise]

When I saw The Boss in the trailer, I got emotional. Just knowing her history, and what she is going through at this point, and what is to happen. I thought they captured her amazingly well. On PS2, I always found that she looked unhappy and conflicted, and we eventually found out why. The Delta version to me captures that look, but the nose go down, she has a seriousness about her that someone like the Boss will maintain despite their emotional conflict. Hideo Kojima is the designer, and he would have the idea of who he thought the Boss best fits, but it doesn't mean it has to follow said trend. It's like, the remake casted a different actor.

The one thing i'm wondering about is, they say this game is a scene-for-scene remake of the original, but will they keep the more...explicit scenes in the game. It makes they may take them out cuz they were weird even for the time, but at the same time they seem pretty faithful to how things originally went so far and i bet fans would be angry if they took them out. i haven't played snake eater yet but one thing's for sure, it'll be interesting to see what they do. Maybe they'll just remake it completely the same and slap that "this game contains themes that are outdated but we've decided to keep it the way it was originally made to preserve it" disclaimer they do at the beginning of the master collection games. only time will tell.

Only one fucking question: WHY SHE ISN'T BLONDE?!! It's crucial for her character, I don't think Konami will change Ocelot's hair color and that's will ruin major plot point. Boss should be visually distinct and create contrast to Snake. I liked her, but MAKE HER BLOND!

[@TooToo246]

The fact that we're griping over very small details, tells me Konami did a wonderfully faithful translation of the characters!.....The transition from the PS2 version to current-gen, is almost as if we're turning a 2D character into a 3D one. That's how big of a difference it is betweern MGS 3 and MGS ∆, so of course you can't expect it to be an absolute 1:1. But overall, she actually looks meaner and more war-seasoned in the remake, while in the PS2 version she looks closer to the iconic MGS character concept art! I'd say Konami did a waaaay better job than other developers. The Last Of Us remake took a lot more liberties with the character faces, it made them look older and more miserable. And RES4 remake completely changed their design to make them in line with the RES-remake-verse!....We have a good thing going here, so let's not be too picky!

[@WllKiedSnake]

Japanese vs Western devs when it comes to women.

[@Omen0-4]

Pointing out the hairstyle here. I think that The Boss had an 'anime-like' hairstyle especially the neck area (more so with the headband absent) in the original, as the modellers might've thought so too so it could be the reason for the slight change. Her style doesn't resemble a wolf-cut anymore in the remake which I'd say would be fitting for a 60s setting.

[@EggmanlandResident]

I think I'd need to see her in motion, in a cutscene and talking, to really know for sure if The Boss' new look is right. Maybe next time they release new information, we'll get a cutscene focused trailer. And hopefully Ocelot doing his meow.

"And people are angry because she doesn't look like a waifu? The face is PERFECT, get over it." You're arguing that, even though Snake is near 100% accurate to his previous look, including the stylization, it's wrong if this happens to the boss, for some arbritrary "realism" argument (despite that MGS never was about realism). I'm not arguing that she looks ugly. I'm arguing that you're making a bad argument as to why she should look different. Especially the "Get over it". This was my first ever game. I'm an OG fan. I was a literal child without anywhere near the brain comprehension to understand this plot's intricacies when I played this game. And I replayed it hundreds of times. OG fans like me JUMP when we see Snake looks 100% accurate. Why is it wrong that we want the same for the Boss? Why the "get over it"? Why is Snake being accurate not a "Husbandu" or whatever anime term is used for men, but the Boss is a "waifu" if she looks like her original? I can see why people are a bit skeptical. Not necesserily upset, SKEPTICAL. We're worried, because in this shot, she does not give off the same vibe as she did before. We'll need to see more to judge accurately, but why should we "get over it" instead of rightfully want an accurate remake?

@@theoneslayer8560 the "get over it" was an invitation to not focus on silly things like that, especially because important things like character faces usually don't get changed after being shown, so most probably that will be her final model.

We found him good looking because we know his story, his feelings and emotions, same for The Boss, in my opinion they did a great job in the remake. Of couse every person has different opinions on this, but for me, beauty means nothing in a person.

I actually like the new Boss. She resembles Ocelot a lot more, which makes sense, since, you know, he's her son. Also I'd say they tried to make her less feminine, which is also more in line with a legendary soldier from the 60's

[@WllKiedSnake]

She doesn't even have Ocelots blonde hair anymore. And she shouldn't be less feminine. Femininity and her skill is what made her stand out.

[@twistedoperator4422]

​@@WllKiedSnakeHer feminity made her stand out? LMAO she literally breaks Boss's arm, shits his eye, and talks about sacrifice the whole game. Couldn't be less feminine. Eve is the one with feminity but even then only superficial so.

[@YouMakeMyMotorRun]

I think the redesigns and graphical fidelity in the remake are top notch... it may be jarring, depending on how much of the zaniness and non-sense they keep (the crocodile cap, for example, seems way out of place when the game looks that grounded and photo-realistic), but overall I don't mind characters faces changing as long as they still have the main attributes of the original or resemble the same kind of vibe. So far, that has been achieved: the characters haven't changed enough to make us think of them as somebody else... it would be jarring if they somehow turned The Boss into some young, gorgeous, uber-sexy lady and got rid of her angular, tough features that made her feel beautiful, but in a wild and commanding way. To me, the real-real issue with the remake is that they're reusing so much of the audio. I get that the voice acting was pitch-perfect in the original, but if you're going to remake a game and not add anything new to the table... more interactions, voice lines, whatever... why bother? It's just the same game, with a new skin? It feels lazy to me, like they reworked all parts of the game and kept one exactly the same to cut corners, not bothering to think about how it would affect the rest. For example: thanks to all the voice lines being the same... all the cutscenes have to inevitably be virtually the same. So we aren't seeing any new content in regards to narrative. After all this time, it feels like a disappointment and a needless recycling of a saga that was already great as it was. If they wanted to do something Metal Gear related, maybe they should have started by fixing the mess of Metal Gear Solid V's cut content... I mean, making a game with a separate prologue, and then not even bothering finishing it? No wonder everyone around the saga got pissed at Konami.

[@beckeras8848]

There's only room for one boss, and one Snake..

[@wesleyskeen4065]

Maybe her hair is darker to distinguish her from Eva? That would have made sense in the original PS2 version but not so much here. She still looks the bad ass we all remember. I got goose bumps.

[@kevinkite3418]

Pretty sure her hair is looking darker because of the lightning engine. We must wait for more shots of her new look to be sure.

[@JayVGBND]

The look is alright. They just need to adjust the structure of her head to better resemble the original. From what I gather Delta should be a faithful recreation of the original to the point where you still open a door to load the next area. Hopefully they could fix her by the time the game gets released.

[@thatillestbori1]

The boss looks exactly how I imagined she would have looked like she looks amazing to me

[@cFull_Rtrd]

The internet always has to ruin everything. The boss is fine. Quit your bellyaching!

[@1badblueboy]

I'm just as excited as a child for presents under the Christmas tree!

[@pitonto16]

At first i was skeptical, but her look has grown on me

[@673AWSF]

I think she looks just like Ocelot honestly. I like it. That’s my girl.

[@TimDaSickest]

I wish they did a Prequel for the Boss herself and some of her events with the Cobra unit.

[@Shinesart]

I think the Boss design is ok. Hair color is as you said half because of lights and also darker in general so it would be better if it looks a bit brighter like OG. I just hope they don't screw up Eve and made her giga chad jaw like in many women characters in new Western games.

[@jackgustafsson243]

personally it's not a huge deal, but i would like to see the whole cast's new look (volgin, eva etc). But for the moment i think the boss fits in with the "remake look". she might look a lot different in different lighting, angles and without her bandana.

[@embracerodusk2537]

The Boss just morphed into 1992 era Layne Staley. She actually sings "Rooster" now during the bridge standoff.

[@Invictus_GR_]

I think I won't be so bothered about her since i boot the game on my ps5 😜 but yes she looks a bit off

[@DOGosaurus_rex]

Small detail the mi 24 hind rotor IRL spins clockwise viewed from the top

[@politicalscientist8880]

I just hope there are more areas and gameplay. It would be so easy to do as it wouldn't interfere with anything gone before

[@rafaelsilva7227]

Nothing wrong with the new design, she looks her age (between 40´s and 50´s) and she looks rough, like someone who has gone through a lot. The character is not supposed to look like a model.

[@TheDaiuc]

It's fine. It's nowhere near the Angela's case for SH2. Still waiting to see EVA's new look tho. If i see no agenda there, i'm getting in the hype train for good!

[@GaryOpengo]

I love the way that Konami made the "new model", she has the courage and sadness that The Boss has in the 2004 game.

[@krisbritwres394]

I like that big boss in delta isn’t identical to solid snake like he seemed to be in mgs3 .

[@steelekratos4834]

I thin her face is fine. Because of the graphical upgrade, she can now show true expressions and emotions. Determination, grief, conflict, and accepting of her own fate.

[@cossackfalco]

Bruh her face is 1:1. Textures and lighting make a massive difference. Just wait til a scene is shown in a brighter environment.

[@channel45853]

It's the trailer's job to show the new model in an enviorment that makes the model look good

[@AngryShooter]

Honestly it doesn't look all too dissimilar at a closer inspection, I would even go as far as to say that they took more liberties at recreating Snake than they did with The Boss but no one seems to complain because Snake looks cool, but the Boss can't just look cool, she needs to look a certain way with no deviations of any kind for folks to be happy.

[@blzahz7633]

If you want to see where issues are, just put up the side-by-side comparison and rapidly move your eyes back and forth between the two: The original had bigger eyes that are a bit closer to each other. Nose was a bit closer to the eyes with the original and smaller in size. Mouth was smaller, lips were fuller. Cheek bones and jaw were bigger. I prefer the original look.

[@MrBlackReaven]

It looks great, come on Phyton. Good day sir

[@JorgeAlarconL]

Something that affects really the looks of the original characters is the shadows because even though they cast shadows from the sun to the ground, the character itself don't get those. This affects eye colors, hair, somewhat the shape and size of models and objects as they look with depth instead a plain colored texture. I really think they didn't give us a release date to have time to fix without pressure any issues and problems people find from the trailers. They really want to not f**c this game as it's the door for new players, remakes and even new games for the years to come. If this fails then mgs is over.

[@almipopp5152]

The boss looks horrible in delta in my opinion

[@Robc210]

Quit your bitching She looks exactly like the same as the original

[@Venom_Byte]

She looks meaner, which honestly I like.

[@almipopp5152]

@@Robc210 shit I have an opinion on how a character looks in a video game! I hope your diaper isn’t too soiled now :(

[@tonivivakrajacic7167]

when i first saw boss i immediately said they need to change her to look like old one

[@aldoeljardinero]

Low polly? Then go play the original

[@truebigboss]

I like her new design

[@sakthiakash4689]

Boss is hot in the remake

[@sheogorath6639]

I think its the lighting. The old version doesnt have that realistic lighting so you can make out more details wither her face. Which is probably why her hair looks less blonde etc

[@WelshSnake6978]

How do you guys know its not just the lighting

[@joshuaharper2702]

She's a soldier that's put in work! Super Dangerous!!! I would have convinced her to fake her death and work for me!!! 😢😮 I played Mgs3 so much i would fall asleep for a while then wake up while it was still on!!! One of the Greatest Games Ever Made!!!

[@Soup-man]

I just hope that Eva isn't hit with Western Game Developer syndrome.

[@frostburn3736]

*_"Kill me. Kill me now."_* Those are quite magnificent made features! Konami, I'll say it guys don't hate me, did good job. I understand why refreshed looks of the Boss my confuse/upset some people but let's give it a chance. Who knows, maybe with some more footage and cutscenes it will end up being pretty good. Also nothing a little modding won't fix in the worst case scenario.

[@papanoble8378]

Oh no, the legendary warrior who has seen nothing but conflict for her entire adult life isn’t a smoking hot bikini model.

[@dragonpee]

All I see in the comments are people who don't understand how lighting works. Why aren't they complaining about Big Bosses' hair looking red-ish brown at 2:41 but black at 0:10 ?

[@THAT_Maverick009]

I'll just say this: Lore accurate, so it's perfect.
