    I find it pretty interesting that the only reason Venom was spared from Volgin's wrath was because he didn't have those blue eyes he hated so much

    I know everyone says Volgin knew Venom wasn't who he was because of the eyes. I say we know Volgin has a much more effective way of finding out how much of a handful someone is.

      The man knows his crotches, but considering how he became a Fire-Monster-Man... thing. God, that just made me imagine during the encounters with the Man on Fire what if he had an instant kill move where charges at you, and if he grabs you, he grabs Venom’s crotch

    Honestly I have thought that primary inspiration for Volgin was Bison from STREET FIGHTER
    In both cases they are "supervillain" dictator type antagonist, that has massive military power, but also skilled in supernatural psychic power.
    Especially considering that his father 01:07 looks nearly identical to Bison

    THANK YOU for mentioning that volgin genuinely cares about raikov! it’s one of his few redeeming / humanising character traits and people overlook it so much when it really adds a more realistic aspect to his character - that even people who seem irredeemably evil are still human. those two genuinely care about each other (raikov is pissed at snake in portable ops for killing volgin) and it’s their only positive traits lmao

    Kind of weird Metal Gear never did much with the whole superpowers angle. Between Volgin's Electricity manipulation, the Sorrow's Telepathy and Psycho Mantis's telekinesis you'd figure we'd get more soldiers with insane powers rather than just fancy tech.

      @syrentide 5 місяців тому +9

      unlikely, especially when you consider the difference between how he treats tatyana / eva and raikov.
      tatyana is covered in scars, but raikov isn’t; he commands tatyana, but he waits for raikov; he doesn’t care for tatyana’s wellbeing (literally not caring that ocelot wanted to try and kill her, saying “do as you like”), but he’s violently defensive of raikov ("i will make him pay for hurting ivan”, “you will pay for what you did to ivan” / “i will avenge ivan”)
      plus, the whole interaction if you wear the raikov mask during his boss battle!
