It’s weird how we only we got to play as Solid Snake in two games

[Gizmo_Duck]

We’ve spent more time with Big Boss post 3d metal gear era than we did with Solid Snake. We only we got to play as Solid Snake in Metal Gear Solid, and then we play as Old Snake in Metal Gear Solid 4. I know it’s the same snake but we never really got to play as a younger snake in his prime outside of part 1 and the originals which aged so badly graphically you can’t even tell.

Only game series where the face of the franchise doesn’t even star in the majority of games

Four games

Four games

Everybody leaves out Metal Gear and Metal Gear 2: Solid Snake.

lets keep it funky. the protagonist was always a version of solid snake. except when we used wack ass raiden.

Yea.....but what's so interesting about Snake? Besides his cloning blues he's got nothing that makes his character compelling.

Big Boss is the visionary Villian/Vigilante that had plans for the present and future.
His Story in which he literally influenced History>>>>The tale of Solid Snake.

And it's not even close really.

Smartest thing that franchise did was pivoting off of snake and Opening up Big Bosses history to show the man Behind all the legendary exploits.


Exploits Kojima was kind enough to let us read about.......and then play 1st hand.

maybe thats the problem they never gave snake enough to do before they killed him.

Don’t be mad GOATjima pulled it off

Eh. I get what you’re saying but functionally isn’t it the same dude?

It is kinda funny when you consider he was a main Sony mascot for a period

functionally, not narratively, which is a big part of what metal gear is about

imagine how different playing a game as Liquid or Solidus would be

No doubt lmao, I just stopped thinking too deeply into what Kojima does. It’s all nonsense that I enjoy for some reason. They’re all just Snake to me. But I get it (and considered the same thing myself before).

mg1 and 2 are the reason why you feel that way op if they remake those games in fox engine and flesh out the story a bit then your desire for solid snake would be satisfied

That's what the developers need to be doing, especially after MGS5.

We now know Big Boss had a whole mf body double out here putting in work.
While he laid low building a nation of killas
According to the terribly convoluted storyline, Solid Snake Killed the MGS5 protagonist(Venom Snake) in the 1st outer heaven.....tell me you don't wanna play that?
I do
Then in Zanzibar land he beat Big Boss but didn't kill him only left him for dead,
I wanna play that shyt too.


I'm not even a fan of remakes but considering the Nintendo version was before even my time, MGS 1 and 2 remakes would barely be considered that.
