  • Contains Spoilers A Mini-Story / Montage of Jack The Ripper. I apologize for the length of the video. I considered breaking it into three parts for each game but instead it will just be the longest montage video (Might be better categorized as a Mini-Story) I have ever made! :D
    Special Thanks to Dioseolo for the awesome singing. :)

    To be technical here, Raiden is a little bipolar and has a disorder in his mind that causes a tick which makes him agressive and dangerous. he is also schizophrenic (which is why he hears "voices" in his head) but all of these disorders were caused by none other than Solidus.

    In a way, Raiden's story is about accepting whatever fucked up past you may have and embrace everything that you once were. Jack has spent all his life trying to forget who he was, but eventually he realised he could never fully suppress it and move on, so he accepted it. He knows he's a psychopath, and he's okay with that. Because at the end of the day, he's still a Hero.

    To anyone that thinks MGR contradict's Raiden's character development, know this:
    The backstory for MGR is that Raiden, even after getting artificial skin to conceal his cyborg enhancements, could not find work to support Rose and his son that didn't involve war. That's why he found a job working for Maverick, believing that specific PMC was about peacekeeping and security consultation, not being a hired gun for war like in MGS4. Which is why he's always going on about justice, which is why he believed what he was working towards was right.
    As the game progressed, you see Raiden steer himself towards a path lead by his own sense of justice.

    • @kevinserious
      @kevinserious Před 2 lety +49

      not quite -
      Snake told Raiden, "Fight for what you believe in" Raiden mentions that quote that Solid Snake told him when he's asked what he is fighting for, he fights against corrupt PMC's that do children trafficking for war, he's also a very well trained killer, but he kills for the name of justice.

    This was awesome. Shame about the song at the end, but still. Should do one for Ocelot. People don't realise it, but if the Metal Gear Solid series is about any one person's story, it's him. He's in every game. He's the reason for the success of the mission in MGS3. Him being a double agent results in the US getting hold of the Philosopher's Legacy, which he then gets hold of for Zero: without him, the Patriots would never have happened. He's also the reason that Big Boss joined the Patriots originally, by his request. Big Boss being in the Patriots, and then leaving, lead to Les Enfants Terribles. He's the one who recovers the Metal Gear blueprints after MGS1, when it's revealed he's a spy, which is the reason Metal Gears spring up all over the world. He orchestrates all of the events in MGS2 and MGS4, and is the entire reason that they were able to stop the Patriots. In every single game, he's actually been the most important character.
    Should be called Metal Gear Ocelot.

      leerobbo92 He is by far one of the most active and important characters but I would point out that he only first appears in MGS1 so he hasn't exactly been in every single game but it was close. He wasn't there in Zanzibar land to even know that Grey Fox had died there, but there is always the possibility the two met while being apart of Diamond Dogs and had some sort of rivalry going on. Ocelot's story is far from being done in my opinion.

      SolidSnake2948 Aye, I did mention that I was only talking about the MGS series though, not the MSX ones. I can't wait for the new one. What happens to Ocelot between MGSV and MGS1, and why Big Boss appears to be the bad guy from MGSV onwards are the two biggest questions left, and I think there'll be a few twists.

    As absurd as MGS4 was as regards Raiden, I couldn't help but feel that the moment in which Jack and Raiden Jr. stare at each other was masterfully done. They're looking one another with a kind of fascination: Jack seeing the child he never thought he'd have, and John seeing the hero he thought was only fiction.
    Seriously, that, Ocelot and Big Boss' deaths were the only times I teared up a little.

  • @orion7745

    From some different fandoms and their arguments to say that this game does not concern as Canon for what the story is ridiculously silly and nonsense.
    those have not seen the codec conversations, what MGR explains it, and why Raiden goes for fight, and not to stay with rose, is like this; Raiden lived with Rose happily. The problem? clearly because of his cybernetic body, he could not change it. He had to go with suits to hide his body from people who looked at him as a phenomenon: he couldnt get a job. Because he did not have the money to take care of his family, and let Rose take the load, Raiden had no option but to work in some military center. In this case, as a security guard before entering Marverich.
    After that, the plot begins with stopping those who killed the prime minister, and he realizes that behind them, they turning this people beings like Raiden into Jack. Taking that which concerns Raiden, he confronts them.
    Technically, Raiden had a simple task, it was to stop the Desperados, but not to confront them. And after that, Sam, motivating him to proceed with fighting Desperado to World Marshal, which in the DLC he could not complete, it is as if he was trying to pass his legacy to Raiden to go against those corrupt, and thus know what " Reveangeance " is.
    Which makes me think that Sam starred in the story, instead of Raiden.
    So... I dont understand this people and his ideas against for a game that is not Snake; The poor man had a month to live, and that was said in MGS4, this game is when 3 years later passed, it continues to raiden.

    Your concept and execution are absolutely fucking perfect. What's that? Too much of a simple compliment? Okay.
    THIS little presentation is art, not pretentious garbage calling itself intellectual for regurgitating complete disgusting lies about healthy sexuality or who people are as individuals and not what. This lovingly crafted project overflowing with soul is something that follows a unique and incredibly written character's story over the span of many years, themes and elements of the time reflected outside its own world in more impressive graphics and physics technology and cultural appeal and trends, their traumatic beginnings that led them to feel like a monster, the touch and impact by humble allies and associates, the ones they came to call "friend", and even fortunately enough "love", that dragged them kicking and screaming out of the mental and metaphorical abyss of their own making and slowly rise out as a visibly scarred and almost alien bringer of justice using all that forcibly tamed and channeled anger, hatred, pain and evil to poetically carve it just like a honed blade through much greater and more sinister and misled forces wielding it that cast a shadow over a brighter horizon. And now he'll never be allowed to shake what the people who care about and believe in him know as. Just like Zack Fair beautifully and idealistically said to Terra in Kingdom Hearts: Birth By Sleep, "You don't get to decide if you're a hero or not, they do." Bruce Wayne and Zero struggled long and hard against all kinds of opponents and loss solely for what they believe no matter what it means for their lives and both unsurprisingly, gracefully reject the notion of being a hero because of perceived wrongs and reprehensibility about themselves and their morally shady actions for knowingly greater causes. It's not for any sense of glory or pride that they fight against any overwhelming odds, it's solely their ideals and faith in the people around them they place higher that made literally both of them unfazed to suicidally and painfully blazingly crash from space if it saves the world and Jack is no different in his fearlessness towards death and will to cut his own future and justice in the face of entire global military corporations capable of taking him on and down resolute to ensure no child ever knows the long and painful, but gods thankfully optimistic journey of insatiable maniacal beast and cynical soldier to loving husband, father and hero redemption he's had to take.

    In Metal Gear 2 Raiden aka Jack represents a very Japanese style character. His movements have finesse. Unlike, Snake who represents an American stylized character. Rough and tumble like rock em sock em robots.

    Roy Campbell (A man with a deep military history with both Big Boss and Solid Snake, Has damning information on the Patriots) marries Rosemary (a Patriot spy sent to monitor Raiden) And the Patriots didn't find anything suspicious about this? Damn what kind of CPU were they operating on, Vista?

      He was a puppet for the Patriots the entire time, of course they wouldn't find it suspicious.

    Jack-You're scared, huh? That's ok, I don't blame you.
    John-No, it's just you were too awesome up close that I had to step back a little to cope from the excitement.
    Jack-... What?

    After I saw all of this about Jack , MGR felt a bit more dark , it made me actually understand what Jack said to Moonsoon and it changed the mood of the scene from badass too badass and a bit dark.
