why is the boss not considered a mary sue by Zig Forums? don't get me wrong, i love the boss, she's one of my favorite characters in gaming. but i'm 100% positive if mgs3 came out today, Zig Forums would tear it apart for being "sjw".
>singlehandedly won ww2 in her early 20s Not even gonna read any further. Try not being wrong right off the bat next time.
Kevin Wood
This may be a bait thread but unironically it is because she was created before Gamergate, now any time a woman is in a game a bunch of people get asspained
Benjamin Evans
you made like half that shit up, they don't say any of that shit in game
Kevin Cook
wtf are you talking about, have you ever actually played the game? listen to the codec conversations.
Adam Gomez
>some random medic singlehandedly disarmed every nuclear warhead in the world she pails in comparison to the real mary sue
Austin Mitchell
Try listening to the codec next time before you make fools of yourselves
Elijah Bennett
it was hyperbole. i know she had the cobra unit helping her, but still. try not being retarded next time.
Aaron Ward
She looked cool doing it, that's about it. Style over substance is perfectly fine then and it is perfectly fine now.
Try not being a retard if you want people to take you seriously.
Joshua Lopez
This. According to Zig Forums, all games pre-2014 get a pass, but all games post-2014 are SJW.
Austin Smith
Because its okay when the japanese do it.
Liam Brooks
OP have you actually SEEN anons say she ISN'T a mary sue? everyone knows already, we don't give a fuck because she's badass and we were introduced to her when she was already a badass, you're over decade late to this realisation, dum dum
>why is the boss not considered a mary sue by Zig Forums? we have this thread every day
Wyatt Johnson
This but unironically.
Christopher Thompson
Because she is characterized as a matron figure. The point of a Mary Sue is to make the character as blank and relatable as possible for an external target audience. Because The Boss is characterized in a niche way, she is not a Mary Sue, or at least not typical enough of one for people to be upset.
Ayden Murphy
we have every fucking thread on Zig Forums every day, literally the same exact shazam coom genshin super smash mystery pack dust has settled was it kino what was his fucking problem, posting, every day, don't act like this shit is new
Landon Peterson
>300+ replies from faggots calling her good female character design and asspulling nonsense reasons as to why she’s acceptable
I can’t handle another one of these threads. They’re nothing but lisping faggots making excuses for not recognizing powerful woman trope because they were kids playing PS2. Just fucking die already, Hideo Kojima the smug Japanese man did not write a compelling female, fuck off weebs.
because snake legitimately defeats her. i'll just go ahead and /thread this myself and save you the time.
Aaron Murphy
Most of the really egregious bullshit is in the codecs and most people don't see them. Having a woman be the best soldier in the world doesn't seem that out of place compared to all the other crazy shit in MGS. It is annoying how much more of a Mary Sue she becomes with the games set after her death, she's basically MGS jesus.
Zachary Lee
>why is the boss not considered a mary sue by Zig Forums? She is almost a mary sue but not quite. She loses to Snake in the end. A real mary sue wouldn't have lost to anyone.
She literally gave birth to Ocelot on the beaches of Normandy, you retard.
Julian Miller
>blindly accepts any mission given to her regardless of the consequences to her body or mind >complete drone for the government >kills her lover >gives a maniac a portable nuke >zero moral compass, just does what big daddy America tells her to >her parting words to her protege, the only person she ever cared about, was to stop thinking for himself and be a mindless drone just like her Yeah, total Mary Sue. Didn't cause decades of hardship for the world or anything.
Kayden Evans
>for not recognizing powerful woman trope Mary Sue doesn't translate into "powerful woman trope"
Daniel Gutierrez
I still dont understand how a pregnant woman was allowed to go to a warzone
Jackson Rivera
Of all the insane shit Kojima made her do, this was the most ridiculous. It definitely needed further explanation, like saying she was there only in a commanding role because the Cobras wouldn't accept orders from anyone else.
Connor Flores
who was the bosses lover?? only one I can think of that had feelings for the boss was EVA but the boss never reciprocated any kind of love for anyone
Luis Campbell
The Sorrow, Ocelot's father.
Julian Smith
The Sorrow. He was the father of Ocelot.
Ryder Wright
I was told that she just kind of faked it. I never listened to all the CODECs so I kind of just rolled with it, but thinking about it that's probably bullshit. There's no way you can hide a baby at 9 months unless you could suck in your stomach and squish your baby like a human trash compactor. That would explain why Ocelot LARPed as a Cowboy for 60 years, though...
Matthew Hughes
Because nobody cares about her in any capacity.
Nathaniel Lee
Because she’s not a Mary Sue bit literally the fucking boss. This is like calling Raiden a Gary Stu in MGR. You’re pounding sand with this thread.
