Snake: I'm straight.
Otacon: [pisses himself, admits he's a weeb, and is generally a disaster]
Snake: I want a family with this man.
Doesn't matter if you ship Snake + Octacon as romance or as bromance, it's both so much better than the romance with Meryl.
Easy to say these stupid generation Z meme comments, but you probably didn't watch the cheesy "romance" Meryl ending....
we can have both
@@donuts564 How does this qualify as romance?
@@filipeflower people can see it as a romance
I've gotten both endings before, but fuck, sometimes you just gotta hear Otacon remind you that life can just fucking suck, but that doesn't mean you should give up and die. Thanks Hal.
When a mech-loving scientist in a 1998 game is a better psychologist than some of those in real world
Seriously my dudes. Glad y'all feel the same way.
I finally completed this game recently - I;ve never managed it before, despite having played it on and off since it's release. Octacons words couldnt have come at a better time.
This is how bad endings should be, just another way for the story to end. The writers gave both endings love; they actually wanted people to get this ending, and to still be satisfied.
I wish Otacon was present in the Meryl ending and still had this conversation with Snake.
B r a n d o n yeah I kinda wish there was a secret ending where you escape with both of them.
@@orangeTadpole Oh, you mean like how it happened with the MGS Digital Graphic Novel?
After the Snake and Otacon's heart rending conversation she'll get up and be like "It's just a prank bruh!"
@@filipeflower
Ha ha, he made Otacon walk all the way to Fox Island
@@onionsilk
At least he had the Stealth to avoid polar bears and walruses.
I think Snake not being able to save Meryl made for a better story and showed who we thought to be an unstoppable badass to be just a sad man, like what MGS3 did with the Boss
@MILES he spoiled a 15 year old game... you’ve had plenty of time haha
While I do like the content within the Otacon Ending, this implies that Snake wasn't tough enough to survive the torture, and I'd like to believe he'd be able to do that since he survives a microwave in MGS4.
@@They_are_Arthur i like the Otacon ending more but usually go for the Meryl ending to make it fit better with MGS4.
But like you’re saying, the fact that Snake wasn’t this ustoppable, emotionless badass gave him more character.
@@casperpettersson358 I like it when Snake toughs his way through everything. He's the inferior clone of Big Boss yet he makes it through the worst stuff and I think that's inspiring.
I know this is 3 years old, but I'd argue that him *saving* Meryl is the first genuine distinction between him and Big Boss, and thus, the first step on his path to being more than his genetic code. So yes, *Big Boss* would've failed, but not *David* .
Behold, the greatest bromance in the history of the world.

I know David Hayter (actor who does Snake's voice) and other fans don't like this ending much, but I like it and here's why. Snake and Otacon are connected when you look at it in hindsight, both were loners and had their skepticisms and reservations about people. Snake was a cynic who experienced the trauma of his mentor (Big Boss) and best friend (Gray Fox) betraying him, which caused him to withdraw to Alaska where he could be alone. Otacon was scared of people because he could never really understand them, but after meeting Snake (and Sniper Wolf) he begins to open up to them. Snake and Otacon don't need to have a romance, but you can see what a beautiful friendship it is they have.
Finally, somebody else gets it! 👍🏻
Exactly.
I couldn't go for the Otacon ending, because I felt so sorry for the Colonel. I didn't want to let him down.
@@transformersrevenge9 I understand, but the Meryl ending is canon anyway.
Otacon is a good bro, it's a fact of life
"Meryl can't forgive anyone anymore". That's the first shit you say to the guy after popping out of nowhere behind him? Swell guy, that Otacon.

@@Janon743 He did kill her in front of him tho. That's a lot harsher than what Otacon said
Given how snake and Otacon work together in MGS2, I like to believe that this ending is canon, regardless of the torture, but that Meryl survives, for MGS4

Really sucks they lock so much development for Otacon's character that actually plays into the next game's story behind what's revealed as the non-canon bad ending.
I was just about to comment that
It could have happened off-screen.
I'm sure Otacon's character was further explored in MGS2 in both Tanker and Plant. Can't confirm MGS4 as I haven't played that yet.
Snake uses the Stealth Camoflage in MGS2 (and I'm assuming it's from a clear bonus since he also references the infinite ammo bandana when talking to Raiden)
With how much everyone disregards the fourth wall in this game, I'm sure we can headcanon that Snake got the Otacon ending first but then went back for Meryl
>I'm finished with science, I'm into human psychology now
Psychology confirmed for NOT a science.
lmao that threw me off as well
Well, seeing as it's not gone through any scientific revolution and has multiple methodologies and approaches, rather than one, agreed-upon approach like a science should have, it's not unreasonable to say psychology's not a science. It's actually taught under the humanities by certain schools and universities.
@@hostiusasinhostilityhostil7853 A fair point, but funny nonetheless lol.
I high key prefer this ending. I enjoyed Meryl as a side character but she doesn’t pull off main character as well as Otacon does, and this scene both has its own emotional aspect of picking the player up with Otacon’s moving words, and mirroring earlier in the story where Snake helped Otacon the sane way.
Games are the only medium that can make me connect to characters like this, and Otacon feels like a true friend in scenes like this. Scenes I wish were cannon
we still get to expirience it!, i like to think that between 1-2-4 they had moments just like this all the time. i like to imagine how they were as roommates hahah
Watching this here because I don't have the heart not to save Meryl.
Same

Meryl...
Meryl!...
Meeeerrrrllll!!!!
Some are looking up the Meryl ending because they don't have the finger speed.
They should play the integral version, it's way easier on the integral version.
Even though is the bad ending, hearing Snake laugh makes it the good one in my books
Well, Snake had already a moment of laugh with Meryl in their first codec conversation
It's not a bad ending, it's...a regular ending.
Just finished this game for the first time. I got the canon ending and decided to look up this ending before moving on to MGS2. I'm angry how much better this is. Snake and Otacon bonding over their losses and failures is far more interesting and emotionally moving than a sappy love story. And Otacon by far has a better character arc than Meryl.
Same here
Agreed. Tbh I often feel that Otacon is basically Hideo Kojima and that his arc represents Kojimas own story of learning how to live.
MGS2 actually had confirmed that Meryl survived. There's logs you can read in that game that explain what happens in between 1 and 2
@@BowieWolfand msg4
And since when was Meryl ever really interested in Johnny in the first place unless you count the fact she stole his uniform?
The fact that they both have a chuckle over the 2001 Space Odyssey reference brings a warm smile to my face.
Is it wrong that i like this ending better? i'm more interested on
Otacon and Snake bromance than meryl's ... in fact, it makes more sense
since they work together on MGS2
+MercenaryFox I like this ending better myself because it "shines the spotlight" onto Otacon when Snake is feeling defeated. PS I thought this ending was canon when I first completed MGS1, but MGS4 had to have Meryl in it.
that, and also if you played MGSV, you'd see from Strangelove's words that some part of The Boss's spirit and wisdom gets into otacon, which is why he's able to say these moving quotes. almost like a part of her is reincarnated into him.
MercenaryFox honestly I agree with you, as bouth of them are a better cou-panions. Then again I hardly play much the Metal Gear series.
Bros before hoes
@sandalssuck I think in mgs1 Snake's supposed to be about, 30. So its still a weird 10ish year age gap, but thought Id clear that up anyway. In Mgs4 hes old because he was genetically engineered to die young.
“The important thing is that you choose life, and then live!”
I love this line so much. In this ending both Snake and Otacon lose the women they love, the Colonel lost his daughter and Naomi lost the closest person she had to family, but it still ends on high note for these characters. It’s a very beautiful and inspiring ending in my opinion.
I'd still consider this canon because Snake didn't check for a pulse. Meryl could still have been alive. I don't know I'm just trying to put a light on things because no matter the ending, she still appears in Guns of the Patriots.

Because David Hayter, man.
I agree with you.
Same, because she cheats on snake :/
That Dave and Hal reference is much more clear than I thought ^^"
"2001 A Space Oddity", Hal/Otacon is always watching and monitoring Dave/Snake during missions.
took me 22 years to get this joke
Okay but like, Otacon asks Snake to live at the end of this game, then at the end of MGS4, Snake makes that choice and Otacon goes with him. This is the better ending. Though Meryl having to die to get it kinda sucks.
i imagine, Snake's death has to be hard on Otacon... seeing your best friend and savior slowly fading away
When I played this game, I always got the happy ending. One day, I accidentally got a easy alternative to the torture chamber I didn't know I could get. That accident lead to this horrific moment where Meryl dies. It terrified me at first, but I realized the true ending. He wasn't meant to have a happy life. A clone. A weapon. Nobody. But it's Otacon who saves him and makes him a weapon of hope to save the true heroes. He deserved better in the end.
I don't think this ending completely destroys his live. The romance with Meryl is kinda weird, anyway.
This ending makes you feel bad because Snake feels like a loser and that he gave into the pain making it seem like its your fault she died
His Snake is Solid Having Snake be weak for a moment helps show he's human. I think it is a lot more powerful that way.
It is literally the player's decision to let her die.
It IS the player's fault for giving up the torture sequence.
try beating the torture room on extreme you have to be a real man to do it on your own
Ah, the TRUE ending of the game.
according to mgs4 it isnt
only to cowards who give into pain

Unlike most people this was the end I always got as a kid, I found out years later that someone could survive the torture. I gotta tell, the impact that this ending had on me was reaaaaally something. I didn’t play anything for a few days just digesting it. Very mature for us kids back then
Imagine my face when I played MGS4
I can't imagine your face because I never played MGS3 only played MGS1, 2 and 3
Same here which makes me wanna play it again to get the different ending. I hope they remake the game, although at that age, it affected me, quite a lot.
Me too bro.
@@dabanabbas7950 I did and is totally worth it, although I prefer the “bad” ending, I find it more grounded and cinematographic
No way would I let Meryl die, but man this reveals so much character development. I've never heard Snake laugh.
Didn't he laugh at one point in one of the conversations with Meryl? I don't know...
@@Ami-km8sd I think that was from the other ending
@@shadowstriker84 I thought it was in both endings since Meryl doesn't die until the end of that ending and the conversation takes place earlier in the game, when she isn't dead

I think this ending makes more sense than Snake falling in love with a girl who is not supposed to like men.....
...what?
Wot
I don't remember exactly what she said, but she went under some sort of training to remove her romantic interest in men.
@@L7vanmatre Unfortunately it didn’t account for men with diarrhea
@@L7vanmatre Headcanon, she received that training virtually, that's why it didn't work lol
Snake: i’ll find a new path
2 years later snake does some of the same shit he just did
Snake: so much for a new path
He mentioned there, when Raiden asked why would *anyone* do a mission more than once. It was something like "My best friend once said to me, 'fighting is the only thing I was good at, but at least I always fought for what I believed in'." The point was that he didn't want the world to have metal gears. Instead of fighting because he's ordered to, or to feel alive/survive, he started fighting so that the world can have better peace, away from war and metal gears, and eventually the Patriots. New path, even if certain things are similar.
He did take a new path, in a sense. In MGS1, Snake was disillusioned with his purpose as a soldier and clearly fed up with taking orders. He went in a different direction after the Shadow Moses incident, creating his own new organization with Otacon and dedicating himself to destroying Metal Gear and the Patriots rather than just fighting out of some misguided sense of patriotism or honor.
When I got this ending the first time I cried so many manly tears and I don't know why, but I played the game over again to save her life. I guess in a way I felt guilty and needed to right the wrong I felt responsible for.
I used to always get this ending as a child with my brother every time, not knowing you could save her. Years later we found out the other ending, and I still prefer this one. Its so much more sad and realistic and sets up the second game why snake ends up working with otacon. What a masterpiece.
This is the superior ending, Otocon and (Dave) have great chemistry.
Hal* lol
I'm not a big fan of Meryl but I still felt guilty letting her die like that. Roy Campbell acknowledging this at the end of the game doesn't help either.
why not?
I like this ending because of how There's A Space Odyssey reference and how snake and Hal conversate

Everyone should play this game and enjoy the rollercoaster that it sends you through. What a beautiful story. You think its all about you stopping nuclear attacks and killing villains but you discover more about the characters, more about yourself, more about the world. Hideo Kojima yall
Although this ending is not canon, it has a lot of information in it which is important to know and is known by characters in the sequels. Most importantly that Meryl is Campbells daughter. And ofc Snake gets the stealth camouflage he has in the opening of MGS2. As many state here, this is by far the superiour ending. It really gives close to Snakes and Otacons arcs and at the end, Snake is looking for a new purpose. And he finally changes into the hero from MGS2 and 4 at the end because he failed Meryl and wants to become a better man now. Really a great ending and far better than the romance ending with Meryl.
Well said. Off topic but if they do end up doing a full blown remake I pray to God it doesn't get woke and use pc bs in it. I couldn't bare to see a huge part of my childhood be ruined. They already ruined the last of us with thar part 2 debacle. The only thing worst would be David hayter coming out as a woke far lefty. That would honestly destroy me in so many ways.

Personally I like to believe both could be cannon to an extent. It’s kinda a headcannon, both are perfect endings.
It’s nice of Kojima to not berate the player for taking the easy way out during the torture sequence, but instead reward them with an equally meaningful ending.

When the game was released it took time for it to get big but word of mouth and good reviews Made it go into the top of the stratosphere within two to three weeks of release I remember playing the demo disk of it and finally renting it and playing it and then for my birthday I actually got it a copy all to myself it's one of those games that changes your life and makes you look at things you wouldn't of I've easily played through this game 150 times when I was young watching every cutscenes each and every time I played it I would find something I hadn't noticed before and to this day I still have the original copy I got for my birthday I was either 12 or 13 at the time and the game still makes me cry because of the beauty the story and the memories of Years Gone by when things were simpler when I was younger I play through it a couple times a year still and I still love it to this day
it was a big big deal and revolutionary is the word.....
Otacon is one of my favorites in this game. Definitly better than Meryl.
Ikr
This ending is hilarious. It's so "bromancy" it kills me. It feels like something I should be hearing at the end of a gay soap opera. Right down to the piano playing softly with the dialog. It's also legitimately funny when Snake remembers Otacons real name. And the way Snake totally bums Otacons stealth camo off him is hilarious. He's like "oh OK well if you're not gonna hide I could totally take that camo off you."
The "Hal and Dave" joke was a refrence to 2001: A Space Odyssey. That's why Snake suggests they take a trip to Juptiter.

Ngl I felt happier with this ending than I did Meryl's. Maybe it's because Snake and Otacon have more in common than Snake and Meryl or that we're in constant contact with Otacon all throughout the game.
The song in the beginning is so emotionally good. If I ever was on borrowed time I'd definitely would want to go out on a high note like this.
there are just so many life lessons in the bad ending... what happened to gaming?
To me, this is the canonical ending. Not only does it reveal Snake to be flawed and more human in his mistake for giving into the torture, it better ties in with MGS2. Yes, she’s alive in MGS4, be we all know that game was never meant to have been made.
