Hey guys I know a lot of people ask where the Sundowner fight is and it just kinda happened that it was not included, but youc an check out my full vod to see reactions if you like, they're in the description!
(lets just say it was kind of a failed attempt as I didn't understand how to break the shields and kinda almost killed him normally)
Aw, that's a shame considering you only get to hear the lyrical version of his boss song once all his shields are gone.
Even then though, his boss fight was underwhelming, which sucks since his music was my favorite boss track in the game.
Edit: Not normally one to revisit my old comments but damn. I guess a lot of people feel similar about Sundowner's fight.
I'm assuming you did the stun grenade method?
Fair enough I kinda prefer that method
I have yet to do Sundowner cause I love to use the polearm and just go “brrrrr”
you and most other people who fight him shen.
You should try Metal Wolf Chaos. Its a mech game thats just as insane as this game, but it was made by Fromsoftware.
This game taught me that Memes weren't just funny images but was actually a important scientific term for passing on traits without genes
So technically it’s scientifically literate wow I never expected the internet culture to ever be able to say that
@@CrazyGamebino well technically it used to be a scientific thing first if I'm not mistaken it was first used by Dawkins but Google that to make sure
@@The_Art_Style it's from Dawkins' "The selfish gene"
They talked about memes in MGS2 as well
@@The_Art_Style Yeah, Dawkins coined the term to be something like genes for society. Stuff that gets passed through culture and society and propagates itself, like justice and laws, etc.

Yeah, the absurd quality of the boss fight is the only thing I know for real.
@@RuleroftheSandcastle i see what you did there
Fun fact: The hat and poncho Raiden had was gotten from a *_tourist trap store._* Some shopkeep had the balls to scam him and got away with it.
The Shopkeeper: Dios mio that was close

Huh, impressive.

Raiden has bigger fish to fry...
The fact that we never got a sequel to this game is a CRIME.
But, can a masterpiece truly be beat?
(For the record, the ONLY Metal Gear game I've played is Revengeance. Not a diehard MG fanboy by any means, but the way Konami went about this was dirty af.)
vvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvv
The reason we didn't get a sequel (which was ALREADY PLANNED, btw) is because it's one of the last MG games to come out before Konami raw-dogged Hideo Kojima without his consent. The resulting fallout saw Metal Gear as a series pretty much die, as without Kojima, the subsequent game (he'd already pretty much finished MGSV before Konami stole his shit and kicked him to the curb), Metal Gear: Survive, absolutely bombed.
Because Konami had completely shifted from console games to mobile games because they could shill the microtransactions that much harder on mobile games, they really didn't give a shit, and haven't touched the series since, as it's not in their business interests to make a game that takes time, effort, dedication and love when they can just slap something together and bleed a player-base dry until it inevitably fails. Late-stage capitalism at its best.
@@sergeantassassin3425 for someone who's only played Revengeance, you make a pretty good point. It's a shame what happened.
@@sergeantassassin3425 Wait so when was MGR2 cancelled? Before or after they made MG: Survive? If MG:Survive was successful, would we have got MGR2? ...they should have fucking told me that, I would have bought 100 copies of MG:Survive just to have more of MGR allowed to be made!
@@cleverman383 you see, MGSurvive was bad. No reason for a new MGR/MGS/MGA game if it’s gonna be shit.
@@starcatcherksp1517 But if we pretended it was good, then they would have let PlatinumGames make MGR2
fun fact, the Japanese version of this game censoers the cyborg blood by making it white, but Sam's blood is red to show he's not augmented. the Brazilian man is fully human and he STILL whooped Jack in their first fight.
Small correction I believe he’s like 90-99% since his one arm is replaced but that’s it I believe.
yup, the only part of him that's robotic is his arm, and it doesn't actually add to his abilities; it's just a basic prosthetic.@@ninjaslicertheguardian6433

18:05 I like how if you listen to the codec call at this time, Raiden finds out that the costume and hat he just bought to "blend in" are something locals sell to dumb tourists easily duped into buying them. Raiden is left stupefied by this revelation (Raiden can be such a dork I love him)
Can confirm as someone who lives in Mexico, the hat is used but practically only by mariachi bands, normal people wear normal hats and ponchos like that if you find people wearing them at all it'll most likely be in a northern state, but yeah mostly tourist thing, also ponchos are more symmetrical and at least one my mother got was to waist length, things is essentially a blanket to wear and cover your body from the sun
Exactly. It's not in the video but the stream vod talks about if the game's being racist or not and Shen comes to the conclusion that no, the game's not being racist, it's just pointing out how fucking stupid Raiden is. I love it, 10/10

Music so METAL that they're still making a second game for it
23:05 It actually makes sense they resort to their batons instead of guns, because with cybernetic enhancements the stick hits WAY harder. Not to mention countless enemies already proved bullets to be less than effective against a super cyborg ninja that just cuts bullets out of the air.
Same logic as the infamous “Traitor!” Stormtrooper.
As demonstrated in the gam, gunfire is now just how the police introduce themselves at this point. The cops draw level with Raiden, _shoot for his head,_ *then* shout, "Pull over!"

It’s only a problem when the show/game/whatever does the sexualising instead of the viewer.
"god thats so gross"
15 minutes pass
"gay sex unnnngh"
Like the game isn't subtle in sexualizing Sam and Raiden all game either. Nor is Shen and the others. Lol. She didn't hate when they were sexualizing the guys xD like it's literally all for memes. Not even for straight sexualization imo.
I can't believe you've done this. It's not really a problem at all.
its how she is lmao
24:50 It puts a smile on my face knowing that someone got paid to animate this. Also, the fact that Monsoon CLEARLY sees this happening and just right continues with his speech is amazing.

Does the thicc dumpy play a part in double-jumping or is it just there as a bonus?

14:40
I never noticed this before but at 41:42 the way armstrong and raiden are positioned and the camera angle makes armstrong look like raiden's shadow
the composition in this game is genuinely really good lol
it was because the memes past on to Raiden.
Thanks for pointing that out! I absolutely love it!
Here's something else: when Armstrong says, "Come on!" his eyes glow red like Raiden's when he's in Ripper Mode!
I love how every let's player reacts to "It's the code the samurai lived by" with a snort of laughter. No-one takes Raiden seriously, or his week in Okinawa.
The fact that the dude who said "Memes: the DNA of the soul" doesn't even crack the top 3 of the most memed characters in this game says so much
I am pretty sure Word "Meme" wasn't known in INTERNET, at least not as popular as today
@@onerxowns2202 Oh it was. This game came out in 2013, memes were alive and well then.
Yeah but memes are not what you consider it today as. It is actually a 50 year old word describing something that can be transmitted by something else than genes. So as Monsoon described it, "The DNA of the soul", so our culture, language, and so on. It was a pretty important theme of Metal Gear Solid 2 too, and if you didn't play any Metal Gear, I would advise everyone to play this wonderful saga of games, because they all have amazing ideas, themes, and philosophical questionings that I still carry on to this day. So memes, again.
@@crazys0ap281 the problem with all these theories, ideologies, ideas etc. in these games is, that they are hidden between a lot of other stuff. The games have a place in my heart as I grew up with them. But I could never push them on any non gamer person. They have no consistent tone, mixing very serious topics like warfare and the philosophy that comes with it with non sensical stuff like Johnny the diarrhea soldier (which runs in their family and becomes a major plot point in later games) or Fan Service like Quiet in MGS 5. It just feels all over the place and would alienate a lot of people.
@@stefan020290 MGS is shit, just say it. Rising was great only because platinum handle it.
Normal games: Here's a tutorial fight, we'll go easy on you so you can learn how to fight
MGR: Suplex this giant robot for no reason
well, you have the tutorial levels and then the early campaign levels, so tat is a difference.
“So you know the final boss in every other game?”
Raiden: ‘year’
“Cool, so we’re gonna use it to help you learn the basics”
‘Sounds good to me!’
@@Anton-de5vu I love how the final boss of MGR is a 20 minute optical debate and then fighting a roided politician

As a Mexican-I can indeed confirm that Raiden would blend in…
Well, blend in with the tourists at least.
Originally, Sam was fighting to avenge his father's death at the hands of a drug cartel (he ran a martial arts dojo before his murder). Using the family blade, the Murasama, Sam cut down his killers, and later went to dispense justice as a vigilante of sorts, being called *Minuano* (the cold wind of Brazil). He later decided to go after Armstrong for sending men to die for reasons unknown to them, but after his fight with the Senator, Sam instead joined him. During his time with World Marshal, Sam had lost sight of his original ideals instead fighting for the sake of fighting, but after watching the dedication Raiden had to saving the brains of the children, he began to question what he was really doing. The reason he had fought Raiden in the Badlands was to rediscover his ideals.
His theme song during the fight reflects all of this:
A man who's lost sight of his reasons to fight and who has replaced them with how he fights, represented by his blade.
The bit with no lyrics (or when you knock away his sword), represents how this final fight makes him feel alive and human again. For a moment, he not only thrives in the heat of battle, but he actually rediscovers his original ideals: to fight for justice and keep soldiers from being sent to fight in wars they don't believe in, seeing these ideals in Raiden. He doesn't need the fight itself as his reason to fight anymore when he has his original ideals in hand.
The final verse shows Sam's reflection during his time with World Marshal. He had spent so much time thriving on bloodshed, climbing the ranks and becoming a Wind of Destruction that he had forgotten why he fought at all. This is why he is testing Raiden: if Jack's resolve is great enough to beat Sam, then it will be sufficient enough to defeat Armstrong as well. He was checking to see if Raiden was worthy enough as his successor (Think Bruce Wayne passing the torch of Batman to Dick Greyson (Robin), except the test is killing each other).
I would like this comment but it’s a 69 likes, so, here’s a comment that says like
In fact every single boss theme reflects on the boss (MG RAY not included for obvious reasons)
@@yahia5476 Rules of Nature reflects the plight Metal Gears face: once regarded as pinnacles of human engineering and the most lethal weapons of war ever conceived, they are now obsolete in a world of cyborgs and nanomachines. Despite how epic the song is, it shows how effortlessly Raiden was able to defeat Ray.
Also I know that all of the themes reflect aspects of their respective bosses, it's just that Sam's theme does it the best in my opinion and I think it's a shame we didn't touch on him more in the video.
Sam be like: Thats cringe Jack
@@My2Cents.iF7934 pretty much, Metal Gears used to be the final bosses for a reason as well the thing that gave its name to the series, then as it goes on, like here, they were just tutorial enemies and even against armstrong, the easiest of the phases
The best part of Monsoon's fight is that if you're aggressive enough, he'll beg for his life as Raiden chops him to bits.
Plus, I'm not sure if this part is up to RNG or whatever, but when Monsoon says Raiden is dead, there is the possibility of him responding with "Dead on" as he slams Monsoon into the wall.
@@christianwright7581 not to bust your balls or anything, but those are his Zandatsu lines
@@mr.gasoline205 well I know THAT, I'm just saying that there is a potentially 50/50 chance of him either saying "Dead on" or "Bullseye", don't need to be an asshole about it. Sheesh.
@@christianwright7581 this is true
How ironic that the twitter nihilist whining about the strong preying on the weak begs for his life.
I love how this game achieved slow motion by purposely lagging
There's a little neat detail in the armstrong fight. In one of the cutscenes Raiden dodges a hit to his chin and he takes time to think about. It's because it's a running joke that a bunch of hits graze his chin and the armstrong fight is the first time he fully dodges it.
"Just what are you doing, Senator?"
"Making memories for the player, Jack! Can't fret over every gameplay element!"
immersion: disintegrated
Sam spent two weeks in Okinawa and a childhood in Brazil...no wonder he was so powerful.
he was actually modelled after an italian-japanese man to pay homage to Yojimbo, a film that's best described as a samurai western.
So what your saying is if an Italian and Japanese moved to Brazil, had a male child and taught them the way of the sword, we could make Sam!
I have a new life plan as an Italian
@@astromania1550....This is some George Sears shit.
Revengeance has the absolute perfect blend of taking itself seriously and not taking itself seriously
38:08 admittedly yes, raidens claws are in fact sexy af
One really fun detail about Armstrong I always celebrate is how genuinely happy he looks when Raiden seemingly agreees with him. Regardless of that merciless beating Raiden got, Armstrong still hoped to convince him of his perspective on things. And he seemed actually elated to welcome him - until Raiden shoots down that pipe dream, and just for those few moments in which Armstrong has to collect himself again, he looks actually hurt by the betrayal. I've rarely seen a villain with such a wide emotional range in such a small amount of screentime. You can mock the game for its dumb story, but the presentation is godlike!
I think its crucial to why he's able to work so well as an antagonist with so little screen time, by giving him little moments of emotional vulnerability like that it lets you buy that he's being 100% honest with us, he fucking breaks down his own emotional walls to choke slam us an it helps really crystalize the character.
i wouldn't call it dumb, more like a genius masterpiece
@@bwehhueh5135 I'd say it is an incredibly dumb, thoughtful, balls-to-the-walls masterpiece.
Dumb story???

@@hatemongerofthetoxicbrood6561 Ehh, the story is exciting, but it's hardly well-written. There's many inconsistencies and plot holes strewn across, and once you start to notice them, things just don't align anymore.
Revengeance, aka “Kojima weirdly predicts American politics like half a decade in advance.”
Also the game is great
The best part is, Kojima was barely involved with MGR. He was an advisor, but he barely showed up, and allowed the dev team at Platinum Games to do as they please.
Predicting politics is really easy. People don't change.
He didn't work on the game much at all
@@KazeMemaryu As far as i'm aware, the story was mostly done by Kojima's team, it's generally the gameplay and pacing and level design that platinum took care of.
@@Mernom that may be, but not so much when new advanced technologies get introduced. Mgs2 delved into that a lot too and a ton of those plot points were seeing happen as well.
I really wish more games used Musical boss themes to introduce Thematic boss themes, that really was deadass the best part of this game.
I mean, Raiden specifically getting a retractable metal chin to stop getting hit in the chin, and it only working once in the entire game, and he's so distracted by the fact it finally worked Armstrong just decks him again is pretty good too, but, like, music is powerful. It tells you what you need to know about each character without telling the needless specifics.
I mean I also wish more games were this blatently self aware of how stupidly edgy they were and revealed in it, but the music one seems easier to copy and I don't think some writers are self aware enough to know they're being that edgy.
Well, the only soundtracks I can think of is DMC and Sonic, but I don't know if it falls in the "self-aware edgy" category, since most of their music are practically portraiting their own world reality.

Controversial idea: It’s not cheesy things that people are tired of. It’s cheesy things done in the exact same way as other cheesy things.
This game is like the best cheesy and over the top stuff you should love as a kid because every fiber of your being works together to maintain suspension of disbelief.
It's like Bollywood cheese. Everything is over-the-top, turned up to 11, some of it pushing 12, and everyone in-universe is playing it dead serious.
@@ericbright1742 That, and it's clear the creators are in on the joke.
@@Terithian Yes, taking itself seriously is a definite recipe for disaster
Which is why there has to be moments like Armstrong looking between his own legs at Raiden to make that absolutely clear or the cringe will be just painful and start being more grating than funny
(unless you're one of those ppl who are just plain masochists for cringe I guess)
It's absolutely BONKERS in the right way.
Its what i call an absolute send, anything no matter how cheesy or stupid can be amazing if they absolutely SEND it. Same for movies like pacific rim, all genres and types are capable of being good, you just have to send it.

I think the deciding factor between this and Stranger's of Paradise is intent. Platinum KNEW they were making something Over the top and Ridiculous and because they did so, they were able to be ridiculous with actual intent and grace. Creating something that both parodied and paid reverence to it's predecessors. Stranger's of paradise was made ridiculous on accident. The devs were genuinely surprised that people were dunking on the story so much and thought they were making something genuinely dark and thought provoking. As such, what follows is a sloppy, out of touch, though still entertaining mess.

38:58 Played this years ago and never noticed Raiden got imprinted to the metal from Armstrong's punches. 🤣
The final song when battling Armstrong actually has the lyrics showing the view point of both Raiden and Armstrong. They are both realizing that they will fight to the death so what their ideals are would win and shape the future of humanity.
It's also why Armstrong says he is his heir, because he will use his strength for his own ideals and beliefs. Such a masterpiece of a game that is also completely batshit insane to play.
I love how Armstrong is wearing his glasses half the fight.
And the fact his fight is a huge step up in difficulty is so good.
Simple really, He can’t kick your ass if he can’t see it
Or maybe he doesn’t even need glasses, and he keeps them on just to flex how little damage raiden is doing, “even his GLASSES don’t have a scratch on em”
In the first phase he has 100% health, but 200% on the second, implying Raidens punches were only dealing damage to his shirt's health bar

Not so much late stage capitalism either and moreso perpetual war being used to further political agendas and make a profit off of it.
@@iancorder6133 I feel that using the term 'imperialism' is kind of disingenuous in the modern day, but I think that might just be a connotative thing more than any kind of denotative technicality; if there is no king or emperor, I wouldn't personally use the term, but that's just me splitting hairs.
Also the lore: memes
You have no idea what Fascism is, have you buddy?
Fascism is a very specific branch of Marxism, brought in by Philosophers such as Giovanni Gentile and politicians such as Mousilini.
The idea it proposed was the Marxist ideals are not enough to rally the people and it requires Nationalism and faith in the "system" and the state to the level of a relgious trance to achieve real Socialism. In a way Fascism is just HONEST Communism.
Fascism and Capitalism are eachothers literal oppisites.
And the problem is not late-stage capitalism. Late-Stage Capitalism is a made up concept. The problem is a LACK of actual capitalism, The problem is the Gocerment controls everysingle piece of internet controling the mind of the masses bending them toward what benefits the state and the ones in charge of it.
The point of this games story is releasing the people, allowing them to think for themselves again. And those who refuse to? They are lambs to he slaughter for those who do.
31:55 dear fucking god when i saw this in Maxor’s video i thought the magazine was edited in
36:01 "I can break a president in two with my head hands"
Biden would break from air alone LOL
Yeah, Presidents aren't really known for being tough guys.
Welcome to Joe Biden's america
@@Satherian Yeah, but Biden is in a worse state than all other Presidents. His mentally inept due to his old age. Maybe before he was smart and intelligent, these days his old age has gotten to him. The amount of times he's been videoed chasing Ice Cream Trucks, falling up stairs and shaking hands with air or wandering off is concerning.
I love how they gave subtitles to George's subtitles having subtitles
And they’re dignified English too
S'lan'g
I respect that decision. I know some people react poorly to George but I think it's cool that they included a creole language, and took the time to subtitle both the creole and the english translation. It's not really reasonable to expect them to be able to find a voice actor who's fluent in Guyanese Creole and the guy they hired did a great job.
10:26
"You ever seen a man HANDbrake turn before."
*_I see what the fuck you did there._*
The worst part about George is that the Japanese casting director was perfect as far as I could see because they ACTUALLY CASTED A PERSON WHO COULD SOUND LIKE A CHILD
One of my many favorite things about this game is while Monsoon's meme speech is indeed ridiculous...it's also correct.
Considering how the definition of "meme" has mutated, I want to say that speech is correct in the worst way possible. Like, it's correct but not the way Monsoon meant it to be correct.
I've been told that every bosses' lyrics only kick in when the boss is taking you seriously. That's why the lyrics are completely gone from the first time you fight Sam, and why they leave when he's fighting you bare handed before coming back in.
This game is mental.
Damn, so Armstrong REALLY didn't respect Raiden's CQC game
@@rouge-ish324 but the moment Raiden got murasama, he knew shit was about to get *real*
Also, because the game quite literally breaks into song at the moments of highest emotion, Metal Gear Rising can be technically classified as a musical.
@@m0n5a80 So "Rules of Nature" is Raiden's "I Want" song?
@@peacemaster8117 Raiden’s my favorite Disney princess
Sometimes I forget that Shen is from The Homeland, Germany, and "Ich liebe Kapitalismus" got me just as much as her.
And funnily enough when I revisited this game after learning a bit of basic german this hit way harder than the first time
For a non German, is there a reason that is funny?
@@tanks608 its mostly him saying "I love capitalism" stereotype normally reserved for americans... he also says that right after telling raiden to chop off left arms for money
I just realized after 9 years, that when Armstrong throws his cigar Raiden slices it apart. 34:36
10:27 Really gives a new meaning to the term 'handbrake' turn
"But you DID survive! With your own two hands, you took back your life!"
"And now... i'll take yours."

Feel that I should add I'm only joking to avoid any misunderstandings :D
Deadass, there's no cringe in that line. That's just called being smooth.
Think of pickup lines you would casually slide into a conversation you're having with a person you like, but with bloodshed and violence in mind.

*E X Q U I S I T E .*
I love how Revengeance is getting a resurgence in players again.
Easily the best standalone metal gear game.
A revengeance of players
In all seriousness how and why?
@Mike_The_Felguard The MEMES. In all seriousness it was actually memes combined with a couple of videos from people like Maxor. From there people saw just how memeable the story is or how good the soundtrack is. Don’t quote me on that but I think that’s the source
It's way funnier than it should be that Sundowner was completely skipped for this video
9/11 was too sensitive for UA-cam apparently.
@@aldonover7254 yeah
30:17 fun fact, the lyrics to songs in mgr are based on the enemies current effort level. They only kick in when the enemy is serious.
15:40 Cue mistral beating raiden to death with a baguette
so glad you got to experience this. it sure is one.
21:00 I FEEL SO HONORED MY JOKE MADE IT IN
it's a good one
THAT WAS YOUR JOKE? Credit where it’s due, legitimately amazing :’)
That's a god-tier joke, congrats
props dude, that joke was amazing
I love how MGR surpassed the popularity of the entire Metal Gear series.
Though it seems only recently it's done this. I remember when the game first came out, i played it on release day. As a general hack and slash game, i absolutely loved it, but over the game was shit on pretty damn hard for a long time. Good to see it finally getting the love it should have, even if its just for the memes.
Honestly that’s pretty sad
@@arrogantlobster3270 I don't want the metal gear series to fade into oblivion as well. But that's not the first great series that Konami dumped though. Castlevania, Silent Hill Metal Gear... Time for mourning.
@@rumplstiltztinkerstein what happened to silent hill and team silent hurts so much
@@rumplstiltztinkerstein the community is pretty much keeping it alive, and considering the amount of memes you can milk from this game, "we are doing just fine ourselves" heh

Fun fact: it's revealed in the DLC that the motorcycle Raiden steals belongs to Sam

Set the tone for the whole game 🤣
@@razgriz2276 so true, basically said “this ain’t your grandpa’s metal gear”
they really said: "here is the first boss in the game, it's a massive robot, kill it."
@@vibes_4225 Honestly, Ray got a better showing here than it did in MGS2, where "it's a massive robot, kill it" is it's whole point. It's just sort of... there.
"This game is a fucking experience." Please someone tell me that Shen has played Asura's Wrath. It's the only game that's as much of an experience as MGR.
That would be awesome, Asura's Wrath is such a batshit insane game, both on like, Scale and Plot
Yes, yes, yes, that game is heavily underrated and will be so much fun for her to play, yes.
Speaking of, you're doing yourself a crime if you don't look up the playlist someone made of MGR Tracks played over Asura's Wrath Fights it fights too perfectly most of the time.
Bro the big ass finger scene has remained in my memory for so long
@@Overlysarcasticfox i have no idea what any of this means but i think this comment has convinced me to check whatever this is out
24:14 Was absolutely NOT expecting a perfect Uncle Roger reference in a Revengance video but that's why this is the game that keeps on giving.
33:00 love this guy
I love how Max keeps quietly quoting jimothy and max0rs videos
Oh God this game. Not only did it feel like a fever dream, the characters kept trying to out-ham each other. Everything from the terrible battle oneliners to the ham-tastic posturing feels like someone crossing off a "how ridiculous can we make this game" bingo card.
I love that they included Raiden's dorky cluelesness regarding the local fashion or how to converse with a robot dog.
And then of corse there is Jetstream Sam who should be the next Metal Gear character to get a solo game, double jump and everything.
I love how in the Sombrero scene even the locals are like wtf???
Riaden is a dork but he's our dork
Sam did get a DLC story...
This _almost_ became a series. Think about that. Kojima looked at this and was like "yes this is a good enough sequel to MGS". I really hate this game lol but I respect people who find it enjoyable
@@merlotpapi4930 shame it didn't honestly. Idve loved more genuinely good hack n slash metal gear wackiness.

"Manslaughter doktor? I did that shit on purpose"
did someone noticed that everytime she slashes Monsoon, it rhymes with the music?
27:21
I think you mean that it matches the rhythm, but I take your point.
_"Nanomachines, son! They hardened in response to physical trauma."_
There it is, that's the comment I was looking for.
*"Memes, son! They spread in response to mental trauma."*
I love how everyone’s initial reaction to this game is laugh at its goofiness but by the end almost everyone agrees it’s a great game with an awesome soundtrack which makes it a memorable experience.
It's so over the top in any instant it's hard to forget it, much like Asura's Wrath, once you played it you can't forget it because how dumb but enjoyable and a good experience it was. In the end the fact the characters don't make any senses, the dialogues are just a bunch of oneliners (well, some make sense but let be honnest the majority is here because it sounded cool) and the devs were really serious about it, really thinking it was good writting and all, the game is always serious make it even better and it's the biggest strenght it have
Standing here i realize
The memes kinda suck tho
@@cumcer6140 eh fuck it, not sure why you think that. Game's been memed to shit and fuck for like a decade, all with different memes, and I dont think any have overstayed their welcome, though you're welcome to think otherwise.
@@lavans5721 maybe its just me, but i have been getting only mgr status shitposts
I love this game so much, always love seeing people play it for the first time
17:45 Raiden its oficially a mexican brother, you cant deny that
What I love about people experiencing MGR for the first time on stream, is when a boss cutscene happens, the entire chat erupts into the theme music and the speech
I still remember the first time I played MGR a few years ago, it amazed me even then, it still does now. What an incredible game. I really hope another game similar to this comes out at some point in the future.
Seeing one of my favorite games ever get so much attention and praise thanks to memes, the dna of the soul, makes me really happy
