Can we just acknowledge the fact that Armstrong could only have bought the giant robot ant for aesthetic reasons, because he's literally stronger than it
the most badass thing about sam (and the reason he is easier to fight than the others) is that he is only part cyborg. hes basically a normal human battling a cyborg made for battle.
i feel that saying part cyborg undermines his strength since tbf he isnt even a cyborg, hes just a man with a prosthetic arm, everything else about him is purely human
@@submergedbird8244his suit is outdated If anything by the games standard, it’s just a full body vest that gives minor protection, he’s just that strong lol
Bro dunked on the guy that dunked on Metal Gear RAY, an MG designed to kill other large metalic city destroying machines. And Sam merked the guy who merks MG-merkers.
I’m sad this game never got a sequel, and most likely (or indefinitely) won’t get one. This game is amazing, and was a great way to continue a story in the Metal Gear universe after the 4th.
It would be interesting seeing raiden follow Armstrong's beliefs, if they were going to make a next game they could have raiden be the villain if they wanted or make it so that Armstrong's America comes true
It’ll get a sequel eventually, if Alan Wake can get a sequel this definitely can. The game studios know how much fans are anticipating certain games so they wait for the right time to drop them to get the most hype out of it. They know how much holding out on us works in making us want it more.
@@kirbe5039 I highly doubt they'd make Raiden the villain for the simple fact that that's just not who he is. While Raiden did agree with Armstrong that the system in America as it is now is fucked up, they wanted two vastly different things. Armstrong wanted a lawless world where people are free to do whatever they want solely because they have the strength and means to do so. There would be nothing keeping the worst of humanity from running wild. Raiden did not agree with that at all. Raiden is still a fairly good person, and even though does act way outside the law a lot, he would never pursue the same goal as Armstrong, especially not when his methods to carry out his plan involved making an army of child soldiers who were put through the same hell he was. TLDR: Raiden and Armstrong both held ideals of freedom, but their definitions of freedom were way too different for Raiden to ever carry out Armstrong's goals
I love seeing how invested Dontai was in the cutscenes and storyline. I wasn't sure if he'd really fw the overall message of the game beyond how cool everything was. Also Jetstream Sam gotta be one of the best rivals in any game ever.
I love how each character gets stronger whenever they are spitting their philosophy. It's like a debate and the fighting is just a visual representation of the impact of their beliefs in that particular moment. In the end, Wolfy had to step in and spit his own take and give Raiden that good anime BUDDY MOTIVATION. And the music is always on point with it lol
*New Player:* “Hey, is that giant robot the final boss?” *MGR Fan:* “No, it’s the tutorial boss.” *New Player:* “Okay.. is the giant spider robot the final boss?” *MGR Fan:* “No, it’s guy piloting the spider robot.”
1. Its pretty crazy that, even with his new body, Sam was able to pretty consistently dunk on Raiden despite his only major cybernetic enhancement being his arm. Which actually made him *weaker* if anything, since he had trouble getting used to it. 2. I am convinced that half the reason that this game doesn't have a sequel is because they have no idea how to top Armstrong. The dude has next to no screentime up until the final level and yet they do such a good job of making every second he's onscreen count to make him not just iconic, but one of the best final bosses in video game history. And the fact that he's *chronologically* the *final boss* of the entire Metal Gear franchise is just the cherry on top.
Armstrong was ultimately right about Raiden in that he, like Armstrong, fights for what he believes in no matter the odds, and will absolutely kill if he must. The personal war you see him embark upon at the end shows that his words even got through, though how Raiden wields the ideal is much different from how Armstrong would have, if I'm remembering correctly. It's also cool how Raiden is effectively exactly what Armstrong wants the rest of the world to become, yet is completely opposed to what he's doing. And it fits that who believes the weak should be culled by the strong is ultimately destroyed by someone stronger than themselves.
imo when he says "the weak will be purged", what he actually means is that he wants the weak to have no choice but to become strong. like throwing a young bird off a cliff, and either it learns to fly or it doesn't
I like how raiden actually shows respect to Sam by instead stabbing him through the chest instead of slicing him to millions of pieces like the others even tho he was the guy that almost fucking dog watered raiden in the vid lol.
And thus the main story concludes with 3 more songs. For Sam we got “The only thing I know for real” which is hype. And Armstrong gets 2 songs. “Collective consciousness” which explains what we THINK his motives are, and “It has to be this way” after the realization that he and Raiden aren’t so different Side note: 33:11 “Yo! Is that f@cking black face?!?!”
It goes even deeper than that. Armstrong believes in nothing except his own greatness. He gives what's effectively a speech and then follows it up with, "I don't write my own speeches." The speech itself is just bites of other speeches as well, this is advertised by bits from two speeches that are unable to be more different if they tried. One is a call to the most sincere humanity and the other is a dog whistle to Fascistic ideology. Those two things are cognitively dissonant. Reinforcing that Armstrong himself believes nothing save for his Fascistic ideology. "Weak" and "strong" are relative terms, Bladewolf even makes this explicit when he says that if Raiden wants to protect everyone weaker than him then it would be billions of people. Armstrong sees himself as the strongest person there is. When someone states an absolute they also state the implied opposite since the listener subconsciously thinks that the opposite is the only way that absolute statement has meaning. So, when Armstrong says, "The weak shall serve," he implies, "The strong shall rule," and in Armstrong's eyes no one is stronger than him, as they're weaker than him they shall all serve him.
What I find interesting is at 51:49 when he says "Deep inside were kindred spirits you and I". If you look closely Raiden his shadow is exactly on Senator Armstrong his body.
I think we know what kind of games Dontai likes by now, the violent hack and slash type game where the protagonist feels OP and can literally obliterate their enemies and you just feel powerful playing as them. Kratos, Asura, Deadpool, Wolverine, Dante, Cal Kestis, and now Raiden are one in the same. I wonder who will be next.
Dontai Love you man, Watching you play games like these is just so damn good, without the twitch stuff on too just private chill recordings like this. You gotta continue playing games like these

It is so fucking telling that the swordfight between a regular-sized man and a goddamn CITY-SIZED MECH using a SKYSCRAPER-SIZED SWORD is not the high point of this game. They really went all in for the finale, and then some.
Probably my favorite series I've seen you play other than 12 minutes. I'd suggest you play other Metal Gear games if you'd like to try out any more stealth games.
Ay, sam is that guy bro, he literally has no cyberneyic enhancments other than a prosthetic arm which is why hes easier than the other bosses but this man literally dunked on raiden at the train, he has my respect, no minions, no bullshit, just a one on one. Also Raiden actually sliced the doctor and george in half in that room but george managed to survive with his head and left arm intact so hes basically a cyborg now, you didnt see it because it'll be graphic af
if anyone cares about a quick *SPOILER* backstory on Sunny, - Sunny Gurlukovich ( Renamed to Emmerich ) is the daughter of Olga Gurlukovich. One of the Russian female operatives Snake encounters out at sea on a boat during the events of MGS 2. Hal (Otacon) Emmerich adopted her and raised her along side Snake during the events of MGS 4, There's a point you meet Raiden again here and his arm gets cut off (which is why when Sam cuts it off at the beginning of the game he says "Dammit, Not again!") and Snake brings him back in and Sunny is the one that really looked after Raiden until he got better. Raiden has a Wife (Rose) and a Son (John)

Armstrong goal is called “True Freedom” which pretty much means if you can do it then you’re are free to do so. You can enforce your will onto anyone and if you’re strong enough the weak have to comply. We have laws in society to protect people from situations like this, it’s illegal for someone to take your stuff, it’s illegal for someone to attack you on the streets, it’s illegal to just snatch someone off the streets, etc. Yeah the USA would go into total chaos if he got his wish but he’d be unaffected because he’s literally one of the strongest people like Raiden is. Raiden also follows this policy as he protects the weak anyway he sees fit because he’s strong enough to do so and no one can stop him.
Haven't seen one yet but "Memes" in used in its definition not 'haha much funny much laughs' style of memes but as and quote. "A an element of a culture or system of behavior passed from one individual to another by imitation or other nongenetic means."
I think what made this playthrough interesting is the fact he struggled more with sundowner than sam which is in funny cos most people view sundowner as the easiest boss given his health and the fact you dont even to destroy his shields to beat him
@@ImStillSixxeswhen Raiden turns red, it's because he's feeling pain. When Bladewolf decided not to shake Raiden's hand, Raiden turned red, which means he was hurting because Bladewolf rejected his handshake
If you liked Sam’s sword, you can even play as him in the free DLCs. Would also recommend playing the other MGS games if you want to make sense of the SOP and other in-game lore things Also Senator Armstrong has the same VA as Mimir from GOW.
fun fact: in this game, the word "meme" or "memes" is used in relation to this definition: "an element of a culture or system of behavior passed from one individual to another by imitation or other nongenetic means."
Bro this seeies was so fun to watch. I really hope he plays 40k Space Marine one day before the sequel comes out later this year. God that game is sick!
I would love for dontai to play the metal gear solid games, don't know if they are too long for a youtube series though but snake eater would be great, him experiencing when the song kicks in
The thing that was impressive about Sam imo was that he was still beating Raiden's ass the entire time with almost no cybernetic enhancements and even after Raiden got his upgrades, Sam still gave him trouble during their final fight. I also loved how he just wanted to do a normal duel. No extra bullshit. No speeches. Just a fight to the death.
Armstrong is a parody on what US was (and kind of still is) like back in the day of "democracy invasions". And a very accurate representation of the current world situation Almost as if it was predicted to happen
Can’t believe dontai been playing so many classics I remember coming home from school playing all the recent games he’s dropped miss tho days it’s only right he plays Star Wars Force Unleashed 🔥💨💯
i just now realised raiden puts his hand on his chin and laughs after dodging an punch that almost hit his chin, then armstrong hits him on the face and he slides across the floor with his chin
Sam fight is pretty straight forward, but on higher difficulties when everybody hits like a tank you’ve died 10x over with the amount of hits you took 😂
Oh btw, were you ever told that the ToonTown Online composer is the one who made the soundtrack? Yes, the ToonTown Online composer made those metal songs.
Hey Dontai, im excited that you've been playing all these hack n slash ps3 games that i love. I do have a suggestion on the next game to play. Ninja Gaiden would be a great game to play from Ninja gaiden 1-3. I'm not gonna lie. it's a challenging hack n slash series, but it's definitely worth playing.
Wow Dontai what a blast of a vid!!!🔥🔥 The whole fight with the senator is so awesome I could watch it a 100 times! I also recommend you to check out the dlc, you'll get to play as jetstream Sam and bladewolf!

I mean hes a US senator he cant go running around killing the president and punching everyone else to start a war
And the fact that if he absorbed the spider bot before it gets drilled by Raiden he could've probably been stronger but no, just style points I guess.

I've seen people distill it to essentially meaning "monkey see, monkey do"
The play through was amazing it was fun seeing your reactions. Thanks for playing Metal Gear Rising Revengeance
I think what made this playthrough interesting is the fact he struggled more with sundowner than sam which is in funny cos most people view sundowner as the easiest boss given his health and the fact you dont even to destroy his shields to beat him
The amazingness about this game is that every line in this game is so quotable and amazingly impactful
Watched you post this on stream, im in your walls
☠️
Yeah
@@ImStillSixxeswhen Raiden turns red, it's because he's feeling pain. When Bladewolf decided not to shake Raiden's hand, Raiden turned red, which means he was hurting because Bladewolf rejected his handshake
Well I’m in your *Balls-*
@@lucifermagne7458 wtf are you talking about
Jetstream Sam's DLC is truly on another level
If you liked Sam’s sword, you can even play as him in the free DLCs.
Would also recommend playing the other MGS games if you want to make sense of the SOP and other in-game lore things
Also Senator Armstrong has the same VA as Mimir from GOW.
fun fact: in this game, the word "meme" or "memes" is used in relation to this definition:
"an element of a culture or system of behavior passed from one individual to another by imitation or other nongenetic means."
You should give the prototype series a chance, it will knock your socks off!
YES BRUH OMG
Bro this seeies was so fun to watch.
I really hope he plays 40k Space Marine one day before the sequel comes out later this year. God that game is sick!
Imagine a remake of this game in 10 years...
This was definitely one of your best playthroughs, I recommend you play the dlc it’s pretty amazing and i’d really enjoy it. 👍
He has to play the dmc series next 🙏🏽
dmc or bayonetta 🙏
Also yakuza 0
He played dmc5 but it would be cool if he played the other games too
I would love for dontai to play the metal gear solid games, don't know if they are too long for a youtube series though but snake eater would be great, him experiencing when the song kicks in
This playthrough was great! 🔥🔥 Hope you play the DLCs if you enjoyed the game enough.
8:03 the sheathing of sword is cold.
anyone else realized that the slashes match the song perfectly at 13:50?
I was starting to think no one else knew that 😂 it’s so badass
This was my top 5 games of all time would love to see infamous keep it up donte
Now you know Dontai...
*It Has To Be This Way*
(Intro intensifies) 🇺🇸
The thing that was impressive about Sam imo was that he was still beating Raiden's ass the entire time with almost no cybernetic enhancements and even after Raiden got his upgrades, Sam still gave him trouble during their final fight. I also loved how he just wanted to do a normal duel. No extra bullshit. No speeches. Just a fight to the death.
waitin all day for this 🔥
Me too
In the context of the game, a “meme” is a recurring theme, idea or subject.
Armstrong is a parody on what US was (and kind of still is) like back in the day of "democracy invasions". And a very accurate representation of the current world situation
Almost as if it was predicted to happen
31:00 to this day, Raiden chuckling to himself cause his chin didnt get hit for once...only for his chin to take the most damage it ever had XD
literally the best video game ever
What I love about MGR final boss is : Half the time, it's philosophical debate, and the other half is demonstrating their arguments via violence.
Dontai you literally played all my favorite ancient games
Thanks for the journey
Can’t believe dontai been playing so many classics I remember coming home from school playing all the recent games he’s dropped miss tho days it’s only right he plays Star Wars Force Unleashed 🔥💨💯
As great as this game was, not only is it impressive how fast you finished it, but how gruesome Armstrongs death was. Prove me wrong ppl, I dare you.
1k like here, love your gameplay man, really made my day fam.
12:12 you think grown men don’t enjoy cultured art ?
i just now realised raiden puts his hand on his chin and laughs after dodging an punch that almost hit his chin, then armstrong hits him on the face and he slides across the floor with his chin
Sam fight is pretty straight forward, but on higher difficulties when everybody hits like a tank you’ve died 10x over with the amount of hits you took 😂
Man this game was ahead of its time!!, I wonder if there’s going to be any sequel
Imagine dontai playing gears of war 1,2 and 3. But he'll probably play one of them and leave it
Oh btw, were you ever told that the ToonTown Online composer is the one who made the soundtrack?
Yes, the ToonTown Online composer made those metal songs.
Hey Dontai, im excited that you've been playing all these hack n slash ps3 games that i love. I do have a suggestion on the next game to play. Ninja Gaiden would be a great game to play from Ninja gaiden 1-3. I'm not gonna lie. it's a challenging hack n slash series, but it's definitely worth playing.
Man I love watching dontai play the games i used to play, it’s like a nostalgia trip narrated by tai. (You’d really like infamous 1 and 2!)
I like how you edit the vids for the games even tho its like simple but it makes to where it's unique and make it interesting and not extra
Worst part about Armstrong, is that we would vote for him.
One of these days dontai gotta play the DMC games
It has to remain one of the best final bosses in video games and it's kind of funny how they're almost never able to stop Armstrong when he's healing
Wow Dontai what a blast of a vid!!!🔥🔥 The whole fight with the senator is so awesome I could watch it a 100 times! I also recommend you to check out the dlc, you'll get to play as jetstream Sam and bladewolf!
What y’all ain’t tell Dontai is that this is one of the top 20 hardest bosses in video games
Incorrect
the music sync when you finished armstrong was just perfect 🤌👌
43:50 Always gives me the chills.
