    Big Boss. A legendary war hero who has prevented nuclear devastation on several occasions throughout the Metal Gear series and has established one of the most formidable military forces the world has seen TWICE. In this Metal Gear Solid analysis, we will try to answer how someone so impressive and arguably noble, become one of the most dangerous war criminals of the 21st century? Let's discuss.

    Aaaaye we did it baby. We uploaded another video! :D (quick notes: I know his real name is actually John. I also used some Phantom Pain footage just because it applied really well to the moment. I understand Phantom Pain Big Boss is Venom Snake :D)

      Awesome video! MGS 4 is a good game to look at in this series for its major focus on mental health, especially with Solid Snake's wariness and Raiden's PTSD.

    16:16 She didn't "believe" that a soldier is "meant" to be a political tool. She said a soldier IS a political tool, because that is what they actually are. It's not an ideaology, it's a fact.
    Big Boss didn't want to be a political tool. Hence why he made a nation for soldiers, by soldiers. This is something that can be heard all the way back in MGS1 where Gray Fox told Snake "we are not tools of the goverment, or anyone else". In the end being a mercenary soldier is the only way you can be a soldier without being a tool.
    She made foolish decision which deeply pains her all the way to the end. Killing the man she loved, the father of her child, and giving away said child to the philosophers.
    Which is why she said at the end " I gave up my body and my child for my country. There is nothing left inside me now. Nothing at all. No hatred, not even regret, And yet sometimes at night i can still feel the pain creeping up inside me. Slithering through my body, like a snake..."
    Big Boss didn't want to live a life like hers. A life where soldiers gets used and discarded just like that.
    The Boss DID give up on the world. She didn't have to to give a damn Nuke to Volgin which started the whole need for operation Snake Eater in the first place, and nearly started World War 3.
    After she did that, she knew that it could only end one way.
    The Boss is also a hypocrite. At one point she gives you a returning lesson about having the "unflinching will to survive" and yet here she is not having that anymore, but still willing to give up her life for a country that used and betrayed her time and again.

    It's a shame that Portable OPs isn't fully canon. Snake has a great line to sum this up in that game.

    Champion, love this video and your earlier work on DMC5. I look forward to the rest of these videos that chronicle and explore the depth of Big Boss's character arch. I humbly request if you would consider doing a video on the characters of Angeal Hewley, Zack Fair and Cloud Strife, if you're inclined and are familiar with Final Fantasy Vii and Crisis Core.
    I recently replayed both of them and have come to appreciate that these three characters are all connected and share a legacy of heroism and honour. Despite their ties to SOLDIER and JENOVA, these three men retain their humanity and personal convictions to be true to themselves and not allow themselves to be monsters and slaves JENOVA's destructive and cancerous influence on the planet. At least that's my take on it.

    I think tbh with the Boss and Snake, Boss was a mother to her son she gave up her life to save his son which wasn't really tackled in this video where she shows her scars to Snake giving birth and they're soldiers, which defines them loyalty and the mission. Snake thinks she betrayed him by letting her guard down at the last moments of both occasions she "died" the cqc battle and the Peace Walker AI, which he feels did the Boss go all out on me or she just did what she was ordered to do to protect the US and to protect the world from nuclear.

    Really this video and the others on DMC just kinda highlight how great the writing in DMC was(even though it was poked fun at) and how incomprehensible the writing was in MGS.
    Back in PS2 era DMC was made fun of as:
    "Two hundred (hundred?)... Yeah two hundred years ago something... Something really bad happened and now you... Must do something about it!"
    -(Very)Inaccurately ripped from an old Newgrounds skit
    Whereas MGS was regarded by some as some kind of masterpiece that could put Shakespeare to shame. If you said otherwise you'd get "kOjImA-sAn iS aN ArTisT aNd yOu CaN't uNdErStAnD rEaL ArT."

    • @ChampionAnalysis
      @ChampionAnalysis  4 года назад +1

      DMC has a simple way of telling a story that provides enough context to the gameplay for the player to understand and get a kick out of. MGS intentionally tries to be a movie within a game which makes it come off as unnecessarily complex. I love both of these series to death though. I hold both of them to a high standard. I love the plot twists that Kojima tries to work into MGS, but I also appreciate how straight forward DMC is without compromising it's characters.
