Dog tags with the player's name are magically shackled on Raiden's hand without any explanation of their origins

Is that your callback? a soijak?
Dilate

This game stupid but I like its men.

>>dog tags with the player's name are magically shackled on Raiden's hand without any explanation of their origins
Raiden was supposed to be (YOU) from the beginning, brainlet.
Pay attention to the story

It still doesn't make any fucking sense, Raiden's canon name is Jack and him getting serviced a dog tag named BONERLORDXXX is supposed to be canon???
Yeah, no thank you.

You can rename protagonists in most Japanese games and it doesn't mean anything.
The dogtag whole purpose is to tell you that you shouldn't try to be Solid Snake and instead you should be you. and that's why Raiden threw away the dog tags, because his fate to be controlled by the player (You) anymore.

Pay attention to the story

nice selfie

>tfw used "Raiden" as the name

>Raiden is forced to act like Solid Snake when I control him
That's dumb as shit. When I control him he should be able to perfectly act like himself and do whatever he wants.
More importantly he acted nothing like Snake when I controlled him. This is retardation to the max.

>real life name is Jack
>Entire scene went completely over my head as a result

>More importantly he acted nothing like Snake when I controlled him
You seem to be confusing actions with words, user. Raiden in the game had different words and spoke them like a total fag and had shittier military skills and knowledge than Snake, but action wise (hint hint: GAMEPLAY) he got the same things done as what Snake did in MGS1.

He's even put in a simulation of MGS1 for fucks sake.

>dog tags with the player's name are magically shackled on Raiden's hand without any explanation of their origins
Magically?
>"leeeeeeeeeeeel Raiden can never become his own man and will always be pressured under Snake's image when he's the protagonist!!!!!!"
There is never a single time at any point in the story when this sentiment is echoed
>Despite that Raiden as protagonist is nothing like snake in any way
He's better :^)

>Your favorite game of all time is a cringe schizophrenic masterpiece.

Ftfy

You totally didn't understand MGS2 lmao fuck off and pay attention to the story

Yeesh, maybe you should go back to Mario, it seems games with any kind of complex narrative is too much for you.

Where was MGS1 Snake's cartwheels, Twin Snakes?
Compared to Snake's shittier rolls, Raiden's flips already distinguishes him from Snake.

Raiden in the game had different words and spoke them like a total fag
Play it in Japanese
>had shittier military skills and knowledge than Snake
That is debatable

Did you miss the last 3 hours of the game or something?

The flips are not the point you fucking retard. The end result, what Raiden does in the game overall, is.

I bet OP is one of those that think Big Boss and Paramedic's real names are John and Jane Doe.

Like having a fucking fiance - let alone having a girlfriend, unlike Snake?

don't bother

Oh shit Twin Snakes was Raiden in VR training wasn't it that's why he does all the stupid acrobatic and hammy shit.

Alright but who the fuck was Iroquois Pliskin? Just some SEAL who was really good at his job?

Yeah I think Kojima just forgot about him.
I was hoping maybe we would get some kind of origin for him or something in MGSV but I guess it wasn't meant to be.
Pliskin spinoff when?

Any series that tries to express anything through meta deserves to get the axe

So very much almost everything?

Do you guys think Snake is Pliskin?

There's a lot of stupid MGS2 fan theories out there but man this one really takes the cake.
