This is why it is silent at the end... At the end of the video I created a montage as you see and used the theme from Metal Gear Solid 2. TH-cam said I would be okay to use this song but revenue would be shared with the owners of it which I was more than happy to sacrifice for the video. They did not tell me this sometimes means the owners take all of it, so I was left in a pretty unfortunate situation. Do I keep the song in or do I take it out, I settled on taking it out because at the end of the day I do have to make a living but I am extremely furious and upset about this as TH-cam themselves told me everything was okay and it would still be monitored, I feel they should have been more specific when it came to that regard. I am extremely sorry if this effects your viewing experience luckily I had said everything important to the video by this point but heres what the final words were which I had to mute also. "A story about one mans quest for something that by the end just doesn't seem worth it after all the sacrifice. An idea that sometimes selling the world just isn't worth it." I decided to just mute the audio rather than cut it so if you really want to you can sync the song with the footage but I don't expect you to do that. once again I am extremely sorry that this had to happen but I hope you still enjoyed the video and now I know what to do if this situation ever happens again.
Fully playing it while paying attention (had no idea what I was listening to, or shouldn’t have been playing at 12 tbh), and I can’t believe how well it’s held up and good it’s message and themes are now thst I’m older and can actually properly digest it
it's even crazier when u think about global events like covid...literally the same as the parasite's concept which only spread through communicating in the form of words...we also got quarantined, people dying from it cause it affects directly to the lungs and it can even adapt to vaccines just like a true living organism...well it is a virus so ofc but still the game was released in 2015...
Kojima is a futurologist. I bet his Death Stranding game will be talked about 20 years from now for being a prediction of themes that we don't even understand now.
The thing I love most about MGS:V is how solemn it is. The entire story. It’s unbelievably interesting but always just so solemn and quiet. And by the end, just plain sad. It’s beautiful. I’ll forever wish we got the proper ending it deserved, instead of being rushed. The first 3/4’s of the story are truly incredible.
Wouldn't you say that not getting the true ending to mgsV is in itself a phantom pain? But Kojima should've been allowed to finish the way Kojima intended it to be.
@@el_dogetaco812 I guess that’s what I mean - we didn’t see an ending completely fleshed out as Kojima intended due to Konami’s budget concerns (understandable on their behalf, honestly) and the pressure for Kojima to hurry up and finish the project.
@@rustyfisher2081I saw it and can honestly say they could have done more with it, but I think it was fun to simply watch it without attaching it too much to the games. Besides, what did people expect: running around and shooting psychos for 2 hours? 🤷🏻♂️
I enjoyed it as if the actors were gamers playing these roles like a video game With that I started enjoying it a lot And when they started to lean in and mold into it I loved it Loved the amount of sound, visual even cgi and bringing it to the big screen I was expecting nothing good but as I surprised by what was there Leaning info like everyone being disappointment jack black already voice his lines explain the early disappointment in the actors but it does get better For sure hard to watch but it's like a train crash you can't pull away and to be honest had more enjoyment than I expected
In the end, The Boss' message was to prevent humanity from destroying itself before every single person realizes that being on the offensive is not worth it, and war is not worth it. The rest of the series explores a lot of questions, including when. It might never happen, it's a very idealistic world view, and somewhat naiive, but The Boss hoped that by keeping the human race alive for long enough, we might see lasting peace. Zero and BB both misinterpreted the message, which raised questions. Would you rather have a authoritarian shadow government dictate everything that happens in the world to hopefully achieve peace (which didn't work in the end), or would you rather have a constant state of personal war, but you are totally free from any government (which ended up failing for Big Boss).
People need to be free to make their own decisions, free to collaborate, and free to make peace, and the only way to do this is allow for information and ideas to flow freely.
I think at the end both Venom and The Boss reached the same conclusion and ending where they sacrificed themselves hoping the future generation can reach and have what they didn't this is a quote snake says from the boss: we have no tomorrow but there's still hope for the future
I just finished it yesterday for a second time after 9 years. And this video just drops. The body I've lost, the comrades I've lost, it won't stop hurting.
This game is so good man… it really should be experienced by all gamers. Can’t say it enough. The options. The immersion it provides. Just needed the story finished and explored more.
in the phantom pain you literally play as the bad guys from Metal Gear 1. So technically venom snake is one of the oldest characters in Metal gear because he was the Big Boss you fight in that game
One of the most horrofic things i read about Venom Snake somewhere was "He gave his life to Big Boss, but he took his soul instead." Many people meme on Skull Face, for giving his speech to the "wrong person", but i disagree. It is beatifully ironic that two people who had the biggest impact in the enitre franchise, are forgotten faces. Venom Snake, who carried the legacy of Big Boss against his will, taking the whole world on, surpassing every expectation and becoming part of the legend himself, yet never recognized for his undying loyalty to his soldiers and his cause. Skull Face, who managed to get one over Big Boss and Zero, putting them both out of the game, he singlehandedly put the Pratriots to the knees, if it weren't for him Zero would have never been rendered senile, he is the cause of almost all f'up after MGS: Ground Zeroes, if he would'nt have struck the moment he had, there would've been an actual chance that Zero and Big Boss might have reconciled. Both charackters, phantoms in their own rights, changed the world and none of them are remembered.
Words that kill are the ones you never get to say. Big Boss and Zero never talked after the accident, never met face to face despite him going to the hospital to talk to him while he was in a coma. If he had that chance- maybe things would be different.
From my understanding V is you, the character that you create, In my perspective I didn't feel bad for my character, because I could have stopped in MGS4 but I didn't, I went right back into action, and I enjoyed every second of it, just like a vet that cant adjust to civilian life, dived back to MGS franchise for more conflict and killing just like the MSF, Diamond dogs and Big Boss, So I don't feel that bad that "I" died in MGS because I was right there Perpetuating the conflict, and just like Big Boss said "When you pick up a gun, there is always a chance to die for nothing"
What I like about MGSV is how meta it is. Whether intentional or not, that’s what it’s become. Chapter 3 Peace, which all evidence suggests is just a title card, is a day that will never come. While the kingdom of the flies is shut down by venom, it’s relegated to a collectors disk and thus, the player is robbed of the agency. And with that 30% complete, you will always feel like something is missing. Like a limb. Even if this mission 51 was all there ever was besides the main game. The fact the kids shirt says never be game over is something I also doubt is accident. And no matter how much players tried, all the nukes couldn’t be disarmed. And so, peace day never came. A relentless nuclear arms RACE between PFs. That never ends. It was a social experiment that was reflective of kojimas view on war. Because of REVENGE, the RACE never truly ends and thus, there will be no PEACE.
i know people gave metal gear ground zeros hell but that game short as it is, is jammed with content sure you couple speed run by guards get paz an chico an gtfo. but you're missing out. the xof patches. the convos you can hear and the side missions it unlocks are awesome. and rescuing kojima is one trhe greatest missions i ever played. and unlocking Deja vu was a fun little throw back and by experiencing the game to the fullest you feel in alot of weapons that carries over
Probably the most clever clue that Kojima gave us to reveal that Venom Snake wasn't the real Big Boss was using Keifer Sutherland as Snake Voice instead of David Hayter. People got angry about it! Everyone thought they were really replacing Hayter.
@@burdenofbest would have been dumb Everybody would have remarked the voice difference Big boss just aged, thats it and if they can 100 % copy him, they could also 100 % copy his voice/vocal cords
Oh my fking god, what the fuck is wrong with this fanbase, why don't you get off Kojimas dick for once, huh. Kojima fucked with Hayter despite everything the man did for the franchise, clean and simple.
The cutscene where venom snake looks into the mirror and breaks it happens in Outer Heaven in 1995, just before his death. Multiple gunshots can be heard in that cutscene which implied that Solid Snake broke into the Outer Heaven base and the OH guards were trying to eliminate him. Truly the last cutscene showing the last moments of the main character (Venom Snake). The real phantom pain for me was to see Venom Snake and Outer Heaven dying, and Venom also losing his love (Quiet)... 💔
Important detail: the plan to manipulate Venom Snake was actually thought up by Major Zero. When Big Boss woke up (before Venom), he just followed the plan that had already been in place for years. Obviously, he could have spared Venom all the pain of the events of Phantom Pain, but it could have confused Venom even more or something worse. Anyway, congratulations on the analysis on Phantom Pain and current real-life events.
I feel like mission 43 isn’t spoken about enough. What an effective sobering scene. One of the most confronting missions in games one of the few scenes that have really hand an effect on me in all of gaming.
The story of the phantom pain is a story of revenge and loss and both are interconnected it’s also a story about how actions speak louder than words take quiet for example how she’s infected with the parasite strain yet she doesn’t speak throughout the game because she grows to admire diamond dogs and ends up dying for them. The game also focuses on anti war sentiments it shows the horror of war by showing through gameplay and dialogue 1. burnt buildings of destroyed African villages by soldiers 2. Skull face tries to oversaturate the nuclear arms market to make no one country be all end all shogun authority supplying any small nation or army countless weapons and by using the vocal cord parasite to cleanse the world of the dominant lingua Franca since America has a salad bowl culture and his past and language was taken from him he’s trying to inflict that pain onto everyone else but more so to keep other languages alive besides English but this makes him a hypocrite since he’s suppressing the English language. Keep in mind where the game takes place Angola zierha? Afghanistan? These are areas constantly under fire currently from mindless proxy wars and oil drilling Currently and I just checked there are more than 35 armed conflicts happening in Africa right now even in Afghanistan: The UN Assistance Mission in Afghanistan (UNAMA) recorded 3,774 civilian casualties between August 2021 and May 2023 (1,095 killed; 2,679 wounded. The characters are also extremely compelling for the most part and offer a lot of insight I especially like Kaz because he’s a loyal but overly ambitious and arrogant but in the TPP he turns into captain Ahab especially as he feels like he died with his soldiers on motherbase 9 years ago and lives only for revenge but him trying to hang onto his humanity is genuinely interesting and his relationship with big boss is amazing and gets more depth with The phantom pain towards the end of the game he admits to big boss he was right all along and that he talks about how foolish it was to obsess over revenge as it costed him everything in the process only to be betrayed in the post credits scene by big boss Kaz spent 9 years of his life rebuilding motherbase only to be met by a body double when Kaz found this out he spiraled into an inferno of hatred and bitter anger eventually destroying everything he built in mg2 solid snake. Quiet: I really like how she starts off as chiper agent sent to kill big boss and was infected with the vocal cord parasite that’s why she doesn’t speak but throughout the game she gets more and more exposure to the band of mercenaries and begins to even fall in love with big boss only to sacrifice herself in the end to save his life which is the polar opposite of what she was sent to do. Venom snake: Big boss’s best solider a medic from peace walker that was used and thrown away by big boss himself mirroring how the boss was used and thrown away by her country shows how much of a hypocrite he has become Venom snake is a part of the player but he is his own character as well through dialogue and facial expressions and beautifully visually stunning cutscenes like when Venom brings home child soldiers and gives them a life free from war while in peace walker Big boss does the complete opposite recruiting Chico for Msf or when Venom saves quiet instead of killing her or having to gun down every single solider at motherbase and instead of letting them go into the heartless sea he makes them into diamond and Carries them into battle. I also like the Paz storyline as Venom feels he’s responsible for Paz’s death so in TPP he creates a phantom of her in the symbol she was meant to be a symbol of peace but throughout the game her memory starts to crack and you see her in the ward pulling a bomb out of her chest and start to fall back it’s revealed she was never saved and Venoms mind is broken he grabs an imaginary butterfly but as he opens his hand it disappears showing that Paz is truly gone. Paz is another good character but I kind gave you the gist of her my final reason why The Phantom pain is the best story in mgs to me is the 1. mature tones the game tackles 2. the lack of boring exposition that is relegated to tapes instead of me just sitting there watching some bitch to talk for 40 minutes then die immediately after 3. It gives weight to the world of metal gear and finally ties the solid and big boss trilogy together. This is my take on mgs V the most profound piece of media ever created and loved the video btw ❤
Venom has made his choice. Big Boss told him he was his own man, but he chose the mission he was given nonetheless. Maybe he thought that in the end; *_He stays, he leaves, nothing changes. He may as well just go along and see this thing to the very end._* Maybe he's just lost faith: for better future, for humanity, and for himself.
This is one of the most thought compelling idea I’ve heard in a long time. Especially the way you compared current world issues, with similar themes in Metal Gear Phantom Pain. Great Job.
This is the game that got me into the Metal Gear Solid! I played this game for hours and hours. Konami will use MGSV gameplay mechanics in the MGS3 Delta remake! Which really makes this game important! I think the story in MGSV is brilliant.
Yeah the gameplay is phenomenal and I hope that remake is great too because Snake Eater is one of my all time favourites and I would love to experience it again in a different style.
@@burdenofbest Yeah, but that's a separate case. It's not really MGS. It's a spin-off in the purest sense. That's why it's so great. It's not trying to be an MGS game. It goes its own direction hard. Yet it's also got touch of that bananas MGS plot magic. My take on Raiden in MGS2 is that originally, he was going to be a woman. Kojima and everyone developed the story around that. And then, Konami demanded he be male. So Kojima pulled some malicious compliance. Oh, and if you're about to argue that Raiden is a clone of big boss, I think you should take a good look at the entire MGS series, and ask yourself honestly if ANY of it was planned out ahead of time. I think we all know the answer. ;)
@@rottensquid why would Raiden being a female fit the plot more? I haven't played the spin off, but i've played MGS-2 and if I remember correctly Raiden was a child of war who was trained to be a soldier from the get-go, given fake identity and fake purpose. the theme of his past actually fits more for a male character, unless, again, I'm not remembering correctly
Are you telling me that, Solid, Naked, and Venom aren't cool? I understand with Solid not being as cool as gray fox I guess with him being a cyborg ninja in MGS, but Naked Snake is badass being able to take down all the Cobras who all have super human abilities, being able to cheat death itself, fighting a Bisexual with lightning powers, and being able to beat The Boss, the best soldier at the time
@@Mr-Escape-Artist I mean, you make a good case. It depends on your definition of cool. Sure, he's impressive, but look at the choices he ends up making down the line. In the end, hating your enemy so much that you become a mirror image of them, not so cool.
Mgsv was my favorite metal gear the moment i finished the Paz story line. At the time, the final tape was something I really needed to hear as i was grieving horribly after losing a childhood friend and my mother in the same month. The idea of being in pain over what was and could have been, and dream for “peace day”, but learning to appreciate them for what was, and at least we had something to lose.
I'm sorry about TH-cam trashing your ending bro because this was one hell of a video. I have been having an itch to go back to this game, I never completed it all those years ago and then I stumbled upon your video. Pretty tragic but at the same time you convinced me to go back to this masterpiece. Thx so much brother!
"....Zero and I..... Liquid, and Solidus.....We all fought a long bloody war for our liberty, we fought to free ourselves, from nations, from systems, norms, and ages..." "No matter how hard we tried, the only liberty we found was on the inside, trapped within those limits" "But you.... You have been given freedom, freedom to be outside. That new world is yours to live in.... Not as a snake, but as a man. You are nobody's tool now. You are no longer a prisoner of fate, you are no longer a seed of war. It is time for you to see the outside world with your own eyes. Your body and your soul are your own... Don't waste the life you have left.... forgive us..."
Mission 43 hits doubly harder if you played Peace Walker, for a number of reasons, but it makes you remember that people are just people, with all the good and bad.
It isn't just MGSV its all of Metal Gear as a whole, and just like you said BO2 is around the corner too... in my opinion... the important part comes from people realizing the truth, when you realize that nothing but the truth matters no matter how much you try to hide it...
Metal Gear taught me an important word I had never heard before... (War Economy) Finding out that word was a real term for a real thing ..... was somberly and depressingly eye opening .
That's the thing. You can't stop fighting till you prevail. War never ends until you're the only one left. History teaches us that not destroying your enemy totally gives them the opportunity to cause more pain and suffering. Maybe it's the loss of my idealism but war will never end. To quote another franchise. War never changes. We'll be doing it for some God awful reason till the last human draws their breath.
You can take this view and believe/pretend that you will not answer to God after you pass. War should have rules, when you have no code of morals anything is on the table as we're currently witnessing
I've listened to a few different interpretations of how the game is anti war and how violence only leads to more violence but something about how you spit it out helped it click more. The last game in the series but is the start of the conflict, playing as a puppet who thought they were the puppeteer for most of it, and knowing how it all ends for Venom, it really is pointless violence at the end of it all. You can't stop war by perpetuating it, you can't actually "win" the game, because it doesn't stop the war. It actually makes me feel mixed about Kojima making a new stealth espionage game when this one succinctly wrapped up the idea of the genre about why it isnt good. Great video
The magic of NOT using TAA, makes the game look crisp and clear unlike basically every other Triple A since 2015 that looks as if your screen was smeared with vaseline.
I guess we're still waiting for V to come to. The truth mission and records are just another interpretation of the fact that Zero/ Chiper created another (child) soldier in the image of Big Boss. "We're not tools of the government or anyone else!" - Frank Jaeger, Big Boss' most trusted lieutenant. MGSV is truly a masterful representation of the terrifying nature of doublethink.
I love Metal Gear with all my heart, played every entry, but to me, this masterpiece will always be the best MGS; the main motive of this game is redefine revenge, not as a feeling, but as a business, where dogs of war are sold to anyone so that buyers can fool their revenge, just the same way Big Boss fooled his, to me this is the deepest message MGS was capable of transmitting; the world will always have cycles of revenge, wich equals to wars, wich equals to and endless profit
This concept is reaffirmed in mgs3 where in a codec call naked snake says “I don’t like the James Bond movies but I can’t help but compare myself to him” which I believe is a hint to the end of the game where it’s revealed all the events were scripted
The only thing holding humanity back is that our ability to share and convey experiences and ideas is orchestrated through systems that haven't evolved at their core for thousands of years. Language and communication has been a barrier as much as it has been a tool for building our world as we know it. I think that was also part of Kojima's message with the virus; that our words can be turned to poison to break us apart, as much as they can be used to bolster our causes.
Insane video, straight into my favourites. To be fair I have never played a single minute of mgs, but the only alluded to themes seem interesting as fuck! And you sold me on that. Very nice video, I enjoyed
Thank you very much I was worried that people who hadn’t played the games might not enjoy the video but your comment has given me great confidence there. Glad you enjoyed it and if you do get into the franchise I hope you enjoy.
It’s crazy how much content of this game I get recommended when I’ve never really been into metal gear. And I have not really finished playing V from the smallest bit of it I have played
5 was my first Metal Gear game never got to play the other ones as a kid but i have known things about the series beforehand and it left such an impression on me that i've gone back to the other games and now consider myself a Metal Gear fan
MGS series is probably one of the best and unique games there is! On another sidenote, why are there wars and why they will never stop along with misery and suffering of the people, is why you need to look deeper into who is behind all of it, behind blackrocks, vanguards, big oil and tech companies, who controls it all and what is the main purpose behind it.
In the opening for the game there’s a scene where Venom plays the “The man who sold the world” tape the caption reads “Another day in the war without end, OUTER HEAVEN”
I like what you did there with the ChatGpt thing It WAS sounding strange tho, like, ok, I get that the song has certain parallelism, but it isn't exactly a interpretation of any arc really. But again, I wouldn't be writing this if you would've confess you pulled a trick, so point taken
Every Metal Gear game has a deep message that has made an impact on our lives, it's up to you to determine which one is the most important. The Boss's message was misinterpreted by Snake and Zero, it was Solid Snake that was the one who fought for peace, brought the future that The Boss wanted. Though unfortunately the games themselves are becoming more of a reality and it's definitely something to think about. You did a great job on this video.
I feel like it’s more there’s people around you you trust, but they’re also the enemy you trust them for years, but they fed the enemy the information to strike you down
I love how the part where you’re saying “it does a good job showing how messed up we are” there are only hella epic things happening on screen Damn humanity
The ending of Quiet hit me harder than anything. I did not know how to react when Quiet spoke and she left. maan that ending was something and left me wondering and thinking about it.
Love some metal gear videos but I gotta point out one thing that kept nagging me. I even rewound the video a couple times to make sure I didn’t hear something out of context. But…. Big Boss didn’t come up with the whole venom snake thing. That was zero and ocelot went along with it. Big Boss went along with it after it was in motion but the way you lay it out is as if Big Boss had the plan all along. I know maybe you just wanted to keep things simple but when I heard you say it I was like, uhhh hang on dude. lol….. sick video though!
No it was a mistake on my end I genuinely thought Big Boss was the one who came up with the plan, MGS lore is confusing as it is and I just got my info wrong. Glad you like the video though.
@@burdenofbest for sure dude. It’s way confusing. It really is a minor detail but I thought you might like to know. As I was typing it out I was like “wait am I sure?” Lol….. but ya I love when people make meta gear content!
The quarantine mission is still perhaps one of the most emotionally devastating missions ive played in any game. Did i cry? No. But the different encounters left a haunting scenario where in a game where you have the option to go nonlethal all the way, this is the one time where it doesn't give you a choice. The virus is evolved to a point where prior cures didnt even work and a scientist that almost got out shot himself because he realized he was infected and was basically acting unbeknownst against his will like a snail. The hardest part was all the soldiers in the bottom most part saluting you and humming the metal gear theme as you're forced to gun them down. So after that its made obvious that this would be the straw that breaks Venom's back and makes him go full evil as a body double even if he still tries some merits of good after the fact like sparing Huey after the trial. You can feel theres nothing but loss and hatred after that. MGSV has a lot of problems from little story to repetitive missions to fill an open world. But at the end of the day its story beats do hit hard even if theyre few and far between. Its a shame Kojima never fully finished the game because i think the cut final missions pull a much more conclusive end to Venom's story in which he gives up on trying to save Liquid but doesnt kill him. He walks away for the wrong reasons and resigns a child, many children, to their fate by the same parasite that wiped a quarter of his own soldiers and leaves him with a half hearted snarky comment after everything by saying "yeah, dont take anything on your own shoulders. Blame me for everything that brought you here." Which in hindsight probably gives him a sense of respect for Big Boss even though we know its not him at that point, and even if we know Liquid still holds a lot of resentment for him and the project that made him after that. Ultimately it made him into the villain of MGS1.
Well it depends on your definition of war, if war is one party acting in a belligerent manner against another then sure yes it’s been on since 2014, if it’s a full scale war with mobilization of troops and planned invasions and battles, then it’s been 2 years.
@@kuurg_legion The bullets started flying and bombs started exploding in 2014. It was literally everywhere on the news at the time and it was already written "war" on the headlines. It's not a "depends on your definition" bullshit.
@@dranon0o calm down there buckaroo, and no it wasn’t from Russian sides, most that happened back then was Crimea was shutdown and sealed off from main Ukraine, and little green men rushed and took over, nothing else, and there was the Russian backed separatists that rose up in Ukraine, but it wasn’t a full scale invasions, so, still depends on your definition of war, an invasion? Or belligerence?

I’ll forever wish we got the proper ending it deserved, instead of being rushed. The first 3/4’s of the story are truly incredible.

@@el_dogetaco812 I guess that’s what I mean - we didn’t see an ending completely fleshed out as Kojima intended due to Konami’s budget concerns (understandable on their behalf, honestly) and the pressure for Kojima to hurry up and finish the project.
"By the way, the way the Borderlands movie fkn sucks" Lmao, dont blame you for venting that randomly
I've heard people say it's good at the same time. Very controversial I guess. I'll need to watch it
@@rustyfisher2081I saw it and can honestly say they could have done more with it, but I think it was fun to simply watch it without attaching it too much to the games. Besides, what did people expect: running around and shooting psychos for 2 hours? 🤷🏻♂️
Haven't really played the games but I genuinely enjoyed the film, I'm sorry
It fits, he said pre-sequel, so obviously he starts thinking about borderlands
I enjoyed it as if the actors were gamers playing these roles like a video game
With that I started enjoying it a lot
And when they started to lean in and mold into it I loved it
Loved the amount of sound, visual even cgi and bringing it to the big screen
I was expecting nothing good but as I surprised by what was there
Leaning info like everyone being disappointment jack black already voice his lines explain the early disappointment in the actors but it does get better
For sure hard to watch but it's like a train crash you can't pull away and to be honest had more enjoyment than I expected
In the end, The Boss' message was to prevent humanity from destroying itself before every single person realizes that being on the offensive is not worth it, and war is not worth it. The rest of the series explores a lot of questions, including when. It might never happen, it's a very idealistic world view, and somewhat naiive, but The Boss hoped that by keeping the human race alive for long enough, we might see lasting peace.
Zero and BB both misinterpreted the message, which raised questions. Would you rather have a authoritarian shadow government dictate everything that happens in the world to hopefully achieve peace (which didn't work in the end), or would you rather have a constant state of personal war, but you are totally free from any government (which ended up failing for Big Boss).
Thank you , I never dug deep into this or had prior knowledge.
People need to be free to make their own decisions, free to collaborate, and free to make peace, and the only way to do this is allow for information and ideas to flow freely.
I think at the end both Venom and The Boss reached the same conclusion and ending where they sacrificed themselves hoping the future generation can reach and have what they didn't
this is a quote snake says from the boss: we have no tomorrow but there's still hope for the future
We need to turn zero to nothing

I just finished it yesterday for a second time after 9 years. And this video just drops.
The body I've lost, the comrades I've lost, it won't stop hurting.
This game is so good man… it really should be experienced by all gamers. Can’t say it enough. The options. The immersion it provides. Just needed the story finished and explored more.
Same... Love these games so much. Immediately beat mgs1 afterwards lol
in the phantom pain you literally play as the bad guys from Metal Gear 1. So technically venom snake is one of the oldest characters in Metal gear because he was the Big Boss you fight in that game

One of the most horrofic things i read about Venom Snake somewhere was "He gave his life to Big Boss, but he took his soul instead."
Many people meme on Skull Face, for giving his speech to the "wrong person", but i disagree. It is beatifully ironic that two people who had the biggest impact in the enitre franchise, are forgotten faces.
Venom Snake, who carried the legacy of Big Boss against his will, taking the whole world on, surpassing every expectation and becoming part of the legend himself, yet never recognized for his undying loyalty to his soldiers and his cause.
Skull Face, who managed to get one over Big Boss and Zero, putting them both out of the game, he singlehandedly put the Pratriots to the knees, if it weren't for him Zero would have never been rendered senile, he is the cause of almost all f'up after MGS: Ground Zeroes, if he would'nt have struck the moment he had, there would've been an actual chance that Zero and Big Boss might have reconciled.
Both charackters, phantoms in their own rights, changed the world and none of them are remembered.
Words that kill are the ones you never get to say. Big Boss and Zero never talked after the accident, never met face to face despite him going to the hospital to talk to him while he was in a coma. If he had that chance- maybe things would be different.
beautifully analyzed
From my understanding V is you, the character that you create, In my perspective I didn't feel bad for my character, because I could have stopped in MGS4 but I didn't, I went right back into action, and I enjoyed every second of it, just like a vet that cant adjust to civilian life, dived back to MGS franchise for more conflict and killing just like the MSF, Diamond dogs and Big Boss, So I don't feel that bad that "I" died in MGS because I was right there Perpetuating the conflict, and just like Big Boss said "When you pick up a gun, there is always a chance to die for nothing"
we are all here before this video blows up
I sure do love “Invisible” by Duran Duran, my favorite song from the MGSV soundtrack
What I like about MGSV is how meta it is. Whether intentional or not, that’s what it’s become.
Chapter 3 Peace, which all evidence suggests is just a title card, is a day that will never come.
While the kingdom of the flies is shut down by venom, it’s relegated to a collectors disk and thus, the player is robbed of the agency. And with that 30% complete, you will always feel like something is missing. Like a limb. Even if this mission 51 was all there ever was besides the main game. The fact the kids shirt says never be game over is something I also doubt is accident.
And no matter how much players tried, all the nukes couldn’t be disarmed. And so, peace day never came. A relentless nuclear arms RACE between PFs. That never ends. It was a social experiment that was reflective of kojimas view on war. Because of REVENGE, the RACE never truly ends and thus, there will be no PEACE.
Great observation
Peace Day never came
Well said.
Holy shit.
Oooh
Audio cuts after 9:45. But otherwise great analysis video and indeed tied to what's going on today.
Watching Michael Saba's video on MGSV made me realize this is the biggest magnum opus of gaming history
i know people gave metal gear ground zeros hell but that game short as it is, is jammed with content sure you couple speed run by guards get paz an chico an gtfo. but you're missing out. the xof patches. the convos you can hear and the side missions it unlocks are awesome. and rescuing kojima is one trhe greatest missions i ever played. and unlocking Deja vu was a fun little throw back and by experiencing the game to the fullest you feel in alot of weapons that carries over
I have much more respect for Ground Zero than for PP.
Jamais Vu with body snatchers is one of my favorite levels in any game ever.
@@DmitryChmelyov i forgot to play that and started my phanton pain. im not sure if i go back and play if the rewards will show up in my main game.
Let us also not forget that if you manage to 100% it you even get a mission where you get to play freakin' Raiden
@@jakedotson9654 ya i just played the mission. you dont have to 100% the game just collect all the xof patches to unlock the mission in ground zero
Probably the most clever clue that Kojima gave us to reveal that Venom Snake wasn't the real Big Boss was using Keifer Sutherland as Snake Voice instead of David Hayter. People got angry about it! Everyone thought they were really replacing Hayter.
I like Sutherland but I think Hayter should have voiced Big Boss at the end I think that would have been really clever.
Why do people still say this shit? OG actor wasn't replaced.
Sutherland also voice big boss
Wheter in ground zeroes or the tapes
@@burdenofbest would have been dumb
Everybody would have remarked the voice difference
Big boss just aged, thats it and if they can 100 % copy him, they could also 100 % copy his voice/vocal cords
Oh my fking god, what the fuck is wrong with this fanbase, why don't you get off Kojimas dick for once, huh. Kojima fucked with Hayter despite everything the man did for the franchise, clean and simple.
Brilliant video. Only found it now from searching for MGSV videos because I remembered what an impact this game had on me.
The cutscene where venom snake looks into the mirror and breaks it happens in Outer Heaven in 1995, just before his death. Multiple gunshots can be heard in that cutscene which implied that Solid Snake broke into the Outer Heaven base and the OH guards were trying to eliminate him.
Truly the last cutscene showing the last moments of the main character (Venom Snake).
The real phantom pain for me was to see Venom Snake and Outer Heaven dying, and Venom also losing his love (Quiet)... 💔
Important detail: the plan to manipulate Venom Snake was actually thought up by Major Zero. When Big Boss woke up (before Venom), he just followed the plan that had already been in place for years. Obviously, he could have spared Venom all the pain of the events of Phantom Pain, but it could have confused Venom even more or something worse. Anyway, congratulations on the analysis on Phantom Pain and current real-life events.
I feel like mission 43 isn’t spoken about enough. What an effective sobering scene. One of the most confronting missions in games one of the few scenes that have really hand an effect on me in all of gaming.
The story of the phantom pain is a story of revenge and loss and both are interconnected it’s also a story about how actions speak louder than words take quiet for example how she’s infected with the parasite strain yet she doesn’t speak throughout the game because she grows to admire diamond dogs and ends up dying for them. The game also focuses on anti war sentiments it shows the horror of war by showing through gameplay and dialogue 1. burnt buildings of destroyed African villages by soldiers 2. Skull face tries to oversaturate the nuclear arms market to make no one country be all end all shogun authority supplying any small nation or army countless weapons and by using the vocal cord parasite to cleanse the world of the dominant lingua Franca since America has a salad bowl culture and his past and language was taken from him he’s trying to inflict that pain onto everyone else but more so to keep other languages alive besides English but this makes him a hypocrite since he’s suppressing the English language. Keep in mind where the game takes place Angola zierha? Afghanistan? These are areas constantly under fire currently from mindless proxy wars and oil drilling Currently and I just checked there are more than 35 armed conflicts happening in Africa right now even in Afghanistan: The UN Assistance Mission in Afghanistan (UNAMA) recorded 3,774 civilian casualties between August 2021 and May 2023 (1,095 killed; 2,679 wounded. The characters are also extremely compelling for the most part and offer a lot of insight I especially like Kaz because he’s a loyal but overly ambitious and arrogant but in the TPP he turns into captain Ahab especially as he feels like he died with his soldiers on motherbase 9 years ago and lives only for revenge but him trying to hang onto his humanity is genuinely interesting and his relationship with big boss is amazing and gets more depth with The phantom pain towards the end of the game he admits to big boss he was right all along and that he talks about how foolish it was to obsess over revenge as it costed him everything in the process only to be betrayed in the post credits scene by big boss Kaz spent 9 years of his life rebuilding motherbase only to be met by a body double when Kaz found this out he spiraled into an inferno of hatred and bitter anger eventually destroying everything he built in mg2 solid snake. Quiet: I really like how she starts off as chiper agent sent to kill big boss and was infected with the vocal cord parasite that’s why she doesn’t speak but throughout the game she gets more and more exposure to the band of mercenaries and begins to even fall in love with big boss only to sacrifice herself in the end to save his life which is the polar opposite of what she was sent to do. Venom snake: Big boss’s best solider a medic from peace walker that was used and thrown away by big boss himself mirroring how the boss was used and thrown away by her country shows how much of a hypocrite he has become Venom snake is a part of the player but he is his own character as well through dialogue and facial expressions and beautifully visually stunning cutscenes like when Venom brings home child soldiers and gives them a life free from war while in peace walker Big boss does the complete opposite recruiting Chico for Msf or when Venom saves quiet instead of killing her or having to gun down every single solider at motherbase and instead of letting them go into the heartless sea he makes them into diamond and Carries them into battle. I also like the Paz storyline as Venom feels he’s responsible for Paz’s death so in TPP he creates a phantom of her in the symbol she was meant to be a symbol of peace but throughout the game her memory starts to crack and you see her in the ward pulling a bomb out of her chest and start to fall back it’s revealed she was never saved and Venoms mind is broken he grabs an imaginary butterfly but as he opens his hand it disappears showing that Paz is truly gone. Paz is another good character but I kind gave you the gist of her my final reason why The Phantom pain is the best story in mgs to me is the 1. mature tones the game tackles 2. the lack of boring exposition that is relegated to tapes instead of me just sitting there watching some bitch to talk for 40 minutes then die immediately after 3. It gives weight to the world of metal gear and finally ties the solid and big boss trilogy together. This is my take on mgs V the most profound piece of media ever created and loved the video btw ❤
maybe the real phantom pain is having to read this
@@The_Real_Drinkthe phantom pain is the friend we made along the way
Subbed cos of this comment 👌
You nailed it.
I completely agree with you and that made me realise a lot more things about the character of venom snake
Venom has made his choice. Big Boss told him he was his own man, but he chose the mission he was given nonetheless. Maybe he thought that in the end; *_He stays, he leaves, nothing changes. He may as well just go along and see this thing to the very end._*
Maybe he's just lost faith: for better future, for humanity, and for himself.
This is one of the most thought compelling idea I’ve heard in a long time. Especially the way you compared current world issues, with similar themes in Metal Gear Phantom Pain. Great Job.
Thank you glad you enjoyed
I can’t believe how I actually played this game for the first time just a 2 months ago. Talk about being in time. Freakin masterpiece.
This is the game that got me into the Metal Gear Solid! I played this game for hours and hours. Konami will use MGSV gameplay mechanics in the MGS3 Delta remake! Which really makes this game important! I think the story in MGSV is brilliant.
Yeah the gameplay is phenomenal and I hope that remake is great too because Snake Eater is one of my all time favourites and I would love to experience it again in a different style.
@@burdenofbest Yes, I am playing the MGS3 with the New Style game play mechanics.
I heard the developers will also leave the option to use the original control scheme and the option for that og piss yellow filter
The secret subtext to the entire MGS arc is that you're never playing the cool guy. Ever.
Unless it’s Raiden in Revengence.
@@burdenofbest Yeah, but that's a separate case. It's not really MGS. It's a spin-off in the purest sense. That's why it's so great. It's not trying to be an MGS game. It goes its own direction hard. Yet it's also got touch of that bananas MGS plot magic.
My take on Raiden in MGS2 is that originally, he was going to be a woman. Kojima and everyone developed the story around that. And then, Konami demanded he be male. So Kojima pulled some malicious compliance.
Oh, and if you're about to argue that Raiden is a clone of big boss, I think you should take a good look at the entire MGS series, and ask yourself honestly if ANY of it was planned out ahead of time. I think we all know the answer. ;)
@@rottensquid why would Raiden being a female fit the plot more? I haven't played the spin off, but i've played MGS-2 and if I remember correctly Raiden was a child of war who was trained to be a soldier from the get-go, given fake identity and fake purpose. the theme of his past actually fits more for a male character, unless, again, I'm not remembering correctly
Are you telling me that, Solid, Naked, and Venom aren't cool? I understand with Solid not being as cool as gray fox I guess with him being a cyborg ninja in MGS, but Naked Snake is badass being able to take down all the Cobras who all have super human abilities, being able to cheat death itself, fighting a Bisexual with lightning powers, and being able to beat The Boss, the best soldier at the time
@@Mr-Escape-Artist I mean, you make a good case. It depends on your definition of cool. Sure, he's impressive, but look at the choices he ends up making down the line. In the end, hating your enemy so much that you become a mirror image of them, not so cool.
Mgsv was my favorite metal gear the moment i finished the Paz story line. At the time, the final tape was something I really needed to hear as i was grieving horribly after losing a childhood friend and my mother in the same month. The idea of being in pain over what was and could have been, and dream for “peace day”, but learning to appreciate them for what was, and at least we had something to lose.
I think for today's world MGS 4's opening monolog with old snake talking about war becoming routine fits better but you raise a lot of good points
I'm sorry about TH-cam trashing your ending bro because this was one hell of a video. I have been having an itch to go back to this game, I never completed it all those years ago and then I stumbled upon your video. Pretty tragic but at the same time you convinced me to go back to this masterpiece. Thx so much brother!
Ay no problem glad you liked it and that the ending wasn’t ruined too much for you
The muted audio at the end is the real phantom pain. It's an allusion to Chapter 3.
"....Zero and I..... Liquid, and Solidus.....We all fought a long bloody war for our liberty, we fought to free ourselves, from nations, from systems, norms, and ages..."
"No matter how hard we tried, the only liberty we found was on the inside, trapped within those limits"
"But you.... You have been given freedom, freedom to be outside. That new world is yours to live in.... Not as a snake, but as a man. You are nobody's tool now. You are no longer a prisoner of fate, you are no longer a seed of war. It is time for you to see the outside world with your own eyes. Your body and your soul are your own... Don't waste the life you have left.... forgive us..."
Mission 43 hits doubly harder if you played Peace Walker, for a number of reasons, but it makes you remember that people are just people, with all the good and bad.
It isn't just MGSV its all of Metal Gear as a whole, and just like you said BO2 is around the corner too... in my opinion... the important part comes from people realizing the truth, when you realize that nothing but the truth matters no matter how much you try to hide it...
Metal Gear taught me an important word I had never heard before...
(War Economy)
Finding out that word was a real term for a real thing .....
was somberly and depressingly eye opening .
That's the thing. You can't stop fighting till you prevail. War never ends until you're the only one left. History teaches us that not destroying your enemy totally gives them the opportunity to cause more pain and suffering. Maybe it's the loss of my idealism but war will never end. To quote another franchise. War never changes. We'll be doing it for some God awful reason till the last human draws their breath.
You can take this view and believe/pretend that you will not answer to God after you pass. War should have rules, when you have no code of morals anything is on the table as we're currently witnessing
Damn, this video is good great job. No need to talk about the all story for 2 hours, straight to the point. Love from Belgium
Never short of eye-opening story and thoughts from a truly amazing creator,Mr Kohima.
I've listened to a few different interpretations of how the game is anti war and how violence only leads to more violence but something about how you spit it out helped it click more. The last game in the series but is the start of the conflict, playing as a puppet who thought they were the puppeteer for most of it, and knowing how it all ends for Venom, it really is pointless violence at the end of it all. You can't stop war by perpetuating it, you can't actually "win" the game, because it doesn't stop the war. It actually makes me feel mixed about Kojima making a new stealth espionage game when this one succinctly wrapped up the idea of the genre about why it isnt good. Great video
It looks better than a lot of new gen console games
The magic of NOT using TAA, makes the game look crisp and clear unlike basically every other Triple A since 2015 that looks as if your screen was smeared with vaseline.
Looks terrible compared to Death Stranding. Not a fan of MGSV’s engine.
@@BendaakAbsolutely stupid and unnecessary hyperbole
They are on par. They take place in very different ecosystems., that's all
@@jihigh482 Nope. It’s subjectively and verifiably a worse looking engine.
I guess we're still waiting for V to come to. The truth mission and records are just another interpretation of the fact that Zero/ Chiper created another (child) soldier in the image of Big Boss.
"We're not tools of the government or anyone else!" - Frank Jaeger, Big Boss' most trusted lieutenant.
MGSV is truly a masterful representation of the terrifying nature of doublethink.
Good choice for using Chopin's Raindrop, I could recognize that song anywhere after Halo 3's Believe teaser.

1 September, 2015.
I’ve been wondering if Kojima/Konami/MGSV are going to reveal something on that day in 2024.
I love Metal Gear with all my heart, played every entry, but to me, this masterpiece will always be the best MGS; the main motive of this game is redefine revenge, not as a feeling, but as a business, where dogs of war are sold to anyone so that buyers can fool their revenge, just the same way Big Boss fooled his, to me this is the deepest message MGS was capable of transmitting; the world will always have cycles of revenge, wich equals to wars, wich equals to and endless profit
This concept is reaffirmed in mgs3 where in a codec call naked snake says “I don’t like the James Bond movies but I can’t help but compare myself to him” which I believe is a hint to the end of the game where it’s revealed all the events were scripted
here before this blows up
Hopefully, that would be nice 😂 glad you enjoyed.
The only thing holding humanity back is that our ability to share and convey experiences and ideas is orchestrated through systems that haven't evolved at their core for thousands of years.
Language and communication has been a barrier as much as it has been a tool for building our world as we know it.
I think that was also part of Kojima's message with the virus; that our words can be turned to poison to break us apart, as much as they can be used to bolster our causes.
Insane video, straight into my favourites. To be fair I have never played a single minute of mgs, but the only alluded to themes seem interesting as fuck! And you sold me on that. Very nice video, I enjoyed
Thank you very much I was worried that people who hadn’t played the games might not enjoy the video but your comment has given me great confidence there. Glad you enjoyed it and if you do get into the franchise I hope you enjoy.
The audio cutting out at this exact moment makes the video even better lmao
To be fair war does have an end, just matters on just how far you are willing to go to find it.
It’s crazy how much content of this game I get recommended when I’ve never really been into metal gear. And I have not really finished playing V from the smallest bit of it I have played
Its been 9 years ...
5 was my first Metal Gear game never got to play the other ones as a kid but i have known things about the series beforehand and it left such an impression on me that i've gone back to the other games and now consider myself a Metal Gear fan
This game might never get the appreciation it’s due.
hearing music used in signalis in this video and it's also so perfect for mgs, love this
MGS series is probably one of the best and unique games there is!
On another sidenote, why are there wars and why they will never stop along with misery and suffering of the people, is why you need to look deeper into who is behind all of it, behind blackrocks, vanguards, big oil and tech companies, who controls it all and what is the main purpose behind it.
Bro, that was an insane stray at 3:40
But was he wasn’t wrong.
Bro just because the game was unfinished doesn't mean you had to cut the audio out at the end 😂
the game made around the song “the man who sold the world” hideo is iconic
What happened to the audio? Im curious
I explain in pinned comment properly.
In the opening for the game there’s a scene where Venom plays the “The man who sold the world” tape the caption reads “Another day in the war without end, OUTER HEAVEN”
I like what you did there with the ChatGpt thing
It WAS sounding strange tho, like, ok, I get that the song has certain parallelism, but it isn't exactly a interpretation of any arc really.
But again, I wouldn't be writing this if you would've confess you pulled a trick, so point taken

Every Metal Gear game has a deep message that has made an impact on our lives, it's up to you to determine which one is the most important. The Boss's message was misinterpreted by Snake and Zero, it was Solid Snake that was the one who fought for peace, brought the future that The Boss wanted. Though unfortunately the games themselves are becoming more of a reality and it's definitely something to think about. You did a great job on this video.
MGS might be the most antiwar game series ever made

Love some metal gear videos but I gotta point out one thing that kept nagging me. I even rewound the video a couple times to make sure I didn’t hear something out of context. But…. Big Boss didn’t come up with the whole venom snake thing. That was zero and ocelot went along with it. Big Boss went along with it after it was in motion but the way you lay it out is as if Big Boss had the plan all along. I know maybe you just wanted to keep things simple but when I heard you say it I was like, uhhh hang on dude. lol….. sick video though!
No it was a mistake on my end I genuinely thought Big Boss was the one who came up with the plan, MGS lore is confusing as it is and I just got my info wrong. Glad you like the video though.
@@burdenofbest for sure dude. It’s way confusing. It really is a minor detail but I thought you might like to know. As I was typing it out I was like “wait am I sure?” Lol….. but ya I love when people make meta gear content!

i SUBSCRIBED SPECIFCALY BECAUSE OF THE MONKEY GIF
The quarantine mission is still perhaps one of the most emotionally devastating missions ive played in any game. Did i cry? No. But the different encounters left a haunting scenario where in a game where you have the option to go nonlethal all the way, this is the one time where it doesn't give you a choice. The virus is evolved to a point where prior cures didnt even work and a scientist that almost got out shot himself because he realized he was infected and was basically acting unbeknownst against his will like a snail. The hardest part was all the soldiers in the bottom most part saluting you and humming the metal gear theme as you're forced to gun them down. So after that its made obvious that this would be the straw that breaks Venom's back and makes him go full evil as a body double even if he still tries some merits of good after the fact like sparing Huey after the trial. You can feel theres nothing but loss and hatred after that.
MGSV has a lot of problems from little story to repetitive missions to fill an open world. But at the end of the day its story beats do hit hard even if theyre few and far between. Its a shame Kojima never fully finished the game because i think the cut final missions pull a much more conclusive end to Venom's story in which he gives up on trying to save Liquid but doesnt kill him. He walks away for the wrong reasons and resigns a child, many children, to their fate by the same parasite that wiped a quarter of his own soldiers and leaves him with a half hearted snarky comment after everything by saying "yeah, dont take anything on your own shoulders. Blame me for everything that brought you here." Which in hindsight probably gives him a sense of respect for Big Boss even though we know its not him at that point, and even if we know Liquid still holds a lot of resentment for him and the project that made him after that. Ultimately it made him into the villain of MGS1.

Well it depends on your definition of war, if war is one party acting in a belligerent manner against another then sure yes it’s been on since 2014, if it’s a full scale war with mobilization of troops and planned invasions and battles, then it’s been 2 years.
