I made my own Venom Snake sprite, yay.
i like his noodle arm

As it turns out, it's rather difficult to build and retain muscle mass when you're comatose.

Skull Face's speech about language is spectacular. That's the zenith of Kojima's writing, in my opinion.

Yes. So much yes.

I hated how big boss moves during that whole thing, he looks like he gives zero fucks

zero

I wonder what was stopping him from killing everyone there before anybody could even notice he'd pulled out a gun, given his insane reflexes. He makes Gray Fox look slow by comparison.

Sutherland is a better actor than Hayter, but I'd still have preferred Hayter for nostalgia reasons.

Spoiler
Woulda been perfect if Ishmael was played by him

Spoiler
I wanted him to take off his bandages to reveal that he is David Hayter. Not Big Boss, David Hayter.

no you didn't

totally did

They could have nuked key military bases but instead attacked cities.

Hiroshima and Nagasaki were key military targets. Military bases aren't just isolated in the middle of nowhere; they have cities built around them.

Would it have not been a more humane idea to destroy the military bases specifically with missiles rather than nuking the shit out of it?

>missiles
>WWII

Why didn't they use smaller bombs, then? They did. They firebombed Tokyo to ash and it didn't work. The nukes were a display of force necessary to yield a surrender.

But Japan had no allies. Its navy was basically destroyed, its islands were under a naval blockade and as you said, they were already performing intense bombings across cities. Surely a surrender was coming.

Japan's entire philosophy at the time was fighting to the last man. Fuck no, they wouldn't have surrendered.

On the other hand, it's hard to say if they would have surrendered after the first atom bomb fell. They only had three days to consider before Nagasaki happened.

That wasn't the point. Hiroshima and Nagasaki were used to demonstrate what the United States' new wonder weapon was capable of.

Exactly.

Let me rephrase that.

The cities weren't destroyed just to test the nukes, the cities were destroyed in order to force Japan to surrender for fear that America had more (which it didn't). And yes, more people would have died if they hadn't been used. It was a strategic decision that destroyed key military targets, they didn't just up and go 'let's bomb some fuckers real quick 'cuz we can'.

I'm going to make it my personal headcanon that Venom Snake's and Big Boss' dickery in the first two games was to prepare Solid Snake for all the hardships he'd have to endure when fighting the Patriots. There's absolutely no implication that any of that is true, but it makes a hell of a lot more sense than them just suddenly deciding to threaten the world with nuclear armageddon for no evident reason after being relatively good people in The Phantom Pain.

That's a lot less contrived than my head canon.

Care to share?

What I don't get is why they didn't play that over the credits or something. They didn't even need to make a new cutscene or extend the finale to include it, so there's really no reason to cut it at all.

Fucking lol

Most of the points are just factually wrong.

The only one that kinda makes sense is the tegenerating health, but I'm not complaining. You could take 30 shots in MGS4/3 and still not die.
The regenerating health can take ages too, depending on how hurt you are. When fighting Sahalanthropus my screen was red and fucked up for like 2 minutes

The length it takes to regen depends on how much your "stamina" is down. For example, if you're constantly running arund, your health wont come back as quick.

Stamina is still there... its just invisible.

Tbh i miss rations but i dont think it would fit well with MGSV, and Im okay with that.
The game has stamina? O___o

It isn't exactly stamina, you just won't heal if you're running at a dead sprint. Which makes sense because how would a wound close if you're constantly reopening it? Unless you're on Diamond Horse, because Snake isn't moving himself.

And he doesn't even have the excuse of being the original Big Boss. He was a combat medic. A combat medic fast and accurate enough to kill dozens in just a few seconds.

Venom Snake must be superhumanly fast if he can kill several dudes, like six or seven fucking dudes, in the maybe two seconds that reflex mode actually lasts.
you say that like it's unbelievable or something

in a universe where psychic powers exist

He's ostensibly a regular guy, though. Ridiculously well-trained but still just a regular guy.

"Maybe it won’t surprise you to know that a girl’s math performance is empirically shown to decrease in proportion to the number of male test-takers around her, or that conscious reminders of gender differences will significantly decrease females’ math test scores."

Stopped there.

Hang on a moment.

I'm taking a psychology course and part of the current material involves stereotype threat. My professor used an example similar to the above to explain it. Is the whole thing wrong? Should I storm out of the classroom in a rage over being taught bullshit?

one aardwolf can eat about 250,000 termites during a single night by using its long, sticky tongue to capture them.
