    As far as cybernetic upgrades go:
    Raiden's body was originally amputated below the lower jaw a while ago, hence the faint line on his face in the intro. And that eyepatch is actually a "compound eye" of sorts. Raiden apparently tried to use a normal prosthetic eye, but he preferred to go with the compound thingie.

Also raiden found that cool. This was why that eye cloth was used.

    You should deduct that sin for using child brains. It actually makes perfect sense. Younger brains generally have a superior learning curve, while being easier to psychologically condition into enjoying the virtual reality simulations that they claim to train those brains with. Additionally children tend to be more imaginative than adults and tend to think outside the proverbial box better. The hardest part of the whole affair, is convincing them, it's just a video game.
    And hey, they didn't *just* make up the Jack the Ripper persona for Raiden at that point. That persona has been repeatedly referenced and discussed as part of his child soldier origin story, and a part of his past that he has tried to leave buried, ever since MGS 2, when the character first debuted.

    • @BRC_Del
      @BRC_Del 5 ปีที่แล้ว +308

      Also Sundowner literally said that he was impressed by how Raiden turned out to be, and decided to use the same methods on kids to basically make himself an army of unstoppable killers. However, since having so many child soldiers run so many missions on real people would be impossible (and extremely expensive), he just cased the brains and bought each one an Oculus Rift with Killzone included for christmas.

    There is one major thing that makes the story more confusing then it needs to: the CODEC calls.
    Alot of them actually have story and lore bits sprinkled in them that are supposed to help bring things together. They even mention things like why Raiden needs to rip electrolytes out of people instead of having one built in and why Dolzaev blew himself up and the refinery. Unfortunately in a game where you go around slicing people into thin strips at high octane speeds you don't really care about pausing the game just to have a 2 minute conversation about the lore of post MGS4 Metal Gear.

      "I carved my own path, you followed your wrath" - Reference to how Sam wanted blood and revenge against the cartels and big companies who send their people to die. (Better explained in the DLC)
      "Yet staring across this barren wasted land" - Talks about how they are in the Denver badlands together, staring each other down before the fight.
      "I feel new life will be born beneath the blood stained sand" - Again talking about the badlands, but also how Raiden will find new purpose after Sam died, one in which to preserve Sam's legacy.

There's plenty of talk about Bladewolf's freedom and gratitude in the english translation too. The translator in the west works perfectly fine.

    By the way, the part where Raiden can somehow hear people's thoughts is actually part of military strategy involving psychological warfare. Displaying your face across all viable mediums in a large area displays power you probably don't have while sending some sappy voice lines to a codec massacres the hero's mind. Since codecs directly manipulate the tiny bones in the ear, it would feel just like soldiers talking into your head. If nanomachines inhibit fear, there aren't even any thoughts related to it, so there is no way in hell those soldiers' thoughts are going to Raiden through telepathy. No, that whole segment was displaying psychological warfare at its most powerful.

      @@sayyytttan Sadly it's not - The plots of the games are riddled with holes, the villains for the most part behaving idiotic and actively acting against their plans (MGS1 and 4 are especially guilty of this) only to have great twists at the end, that upon retrospect barely make sense: The FOXHOUND unit fought Snake for their own respective reasons each in MGS1 and tried killing him, despite Liquid requiring the cards and respective info on how to use it in order to even make REX launch ready while Liquid Ocelot in MGS4 basically went on the same trope - going against snake in every possible opportunity to then achieve the ultimate goal in the end not by each piece falling in line like planned in a grand scheme, but by sheer, dumb luck.
      MGS2 suffered from basically throwing a bunch of existential questions onto the player at the end without ever truly resolving them in the game. It had great predictions (flood of information) that were on point, but that doesn't make a game deep - only lucky with its story beats. Throwing a bunch of questions in the air, waving your hands around, leaving things open for interpretation going "what does it all mean?" while only giving a basic resolution that teenagers can conclude isn't giving your game depth in story or meaning, but makes it appear deeper than it actually is.

    Btw dragging Raiden through all the bosses was Armstrong's plan, kinda. He needed Jack's persona of the Ripper unleashed, he wanted to plant his idea of fighting your own wars in his head. He probably knew that there won't be a better person to fight the regime than a dude who has been fighting for his survival since childhood.
    So Mistral expecting Raiden's arrival is justified.

  • @darthdragon117
    @darthdragon117 2 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    A few of these sins were explained though:
    1. Child soldiers being used instead of adults. As shown with Jack, kids are cruel, easy to manipulate, and fight differently than adults. Why have ten-thousand average joes when you can have a hundred Jacks?
    2. The cyborg soldiers aren't exactly mind controlled. Their fears and doubts are suppressed, but they still partially have a choice. However, especially the cops, wouldn't know about all the shady plots going on. To them, they took a job in circumstances where they had no real choice, only to end up in a blender by Raiden.
    3. The id locked blade, while still a blade, is not comparable to a powered blade. When the swords aren't locked, their properties are boosted drastically, allowing them to withstand and cut things regular blades can't.

So ether it is part of a stabilizer or something for his legs that can also be used to stab people or he got it simply to stab people when he kicks them.

      Blade Mode is in no way overpowered. Yes, you can easily dispatch the weakest enemies, but armoured enemies are ever-present from halfway through the second level onwards. And saying one game is bad, or lesser, because it isn't exactly like another combat system that is subjectively more enjoyable isn't criticism.
