When Snake came to Fortnite I wanted to get into MGS. There were so many videos explaining MGS but I chose your one and have been obsessed ever since. Bought the Master Collection, but 120+ hours in MGSV, and this video is releasing perfectly in time as I enter the second half of MGS2.
I've been WAITING for someone to make a comprehensive video like this about Raiden and his story for ages! Thank you so much for the incredible video, it was everything I ever wanted :)
I feel like he goes back to Alaska, where he was before he came out of retirement all those years ago. Lived the rest of his life in peace with his Husky's
@@JR-994 Dude, I want a game about Snake and Payne hanging out for a bit in their retirement years. Imagine the stories they could go back and forth with as they get into all kinda of details about whatever awesome moment. Maybe even have Chris Redfield pop in for a quick visit and make a wise crack sort of joke about 'the old timers'. But ya know, Redfield is pretty cool so there's no real conviction behind the words as it was just more of a token bit of ribbing. I feel like this is merely scratching the surface as it's an idea brimming with potential! Maybe Ryu Hayabusa flips his way around the fellas, because despite his lack of development over the years as a character it's easily overlooked as those in the know understand his character is the weapon he wields which commonly is that sword of his. Fucker has taken more lives than the plague, and probably sliced countless species into total extinction. I could go on because for some reason I'm strangely excited by the idea lol. But yeah, Alaska would be a great spot! I'd just like some shenanigans to play out a bit before that quite, white goodnight!
Keep in mind: the Metal Gear Ray is the most advanced MG when Revengeance starts. In MGS4, it’s a rough slog of a battle. In MGR:R, it’s the tutorial boss. And you slice the fucking thing in half.
The one thing that's weird about metal Gear solid 2 is that we know that Jack's backstory is that he was a badass child soldier but when we actually play as him, he is not anywhere close to that
I would assume his memory being wiped attributed to his more docile nature, leading him to MGS2 Jack. But honestly? The Digital Comic version of Jack might be what you're looking for - at the cost of him becoming kind of a jerk due to his PTSD-shackled subconscious.

Not sure if it would work. Kojima completed the story with both Guns of The Patriots and Phantom Pain. What challenges would Raiden face, though, and what would the story be?
@@jaredgarcia8638Well as of MGR Raiden has now embraced his ripper persona so the next game could be how he deals with that without becoming just as bad as Armstrong
Given by any chance within his stay in Teyvat if he were to arrive in Genshin Impact, what elemental vision he would have, given this video explaining his backstory? Interested in figuring it out.
You done an amazing job on this man, I know it's VERY nit picky of me but with this series being my name sake and all..Emma was otacons stepsister not his half sister
Ah dammit, that's what I get for not looking into it. I believe I said it correctly in the MGS Lore video but mis-remembered by the time of this one. I appreciate the lookin out!
@ChipmunkuChan super easy to do brother, metal gear lore is so wacky and branching it's hard to keep it all in order. Still an absolute necessity of a video for people doing a deep dive. You're pretty good.
@@ChipmunkuChanin the MGS video (which i just finished lol), you "said" it Incorrectly, but then you had 'Hal' Correct it with the in-game line ("she's his half-sister" 'step-sister' "whatever")
Yo bro! Great Video But Please make the Pluto Video! Cause he Definitely needs a True Video on his Own Since he’s the First Demonic Emperor to have Ever Lived! And Split The Human and Demon Realm Apart by Himself cause he saw the War Between demons and Humans was Never Ending it was Escalating at a Dangerous Rate! Plus Imagine if he was the First Demon Emperor to Show Compassion Towards the Humans!
Sucks that we could’ve had a character that looked like the many real world child soldiers during the time that Kojima borrowed the backstory from. The power of marketing 😔
@@ChipmunkuChan not trying to come off annoying about this, I know things are more complex than they appear on the surface. I just think it would been cool.
oh no I 100% agree with you, I wasn't being sarcastic. To have an actually black Liberian protagonist would have been groundbreaking. Might have even been Kojima's intent to do so - but likely something strange steered the course and we ended up with Raiden. Lovable! But definitely an oddity.
A shame the original concept for Rising never saw the light of day. Hideki Kamiya, the monster energy drink in the shape of a human being, founded a capcom adjacent company that are technically proficient at making slick, balls to the wall (the walls are butts in platinum's case) action titles for other publishers. However, I dont think metal gear and grindhouse are flavors of ice cream the compliment each other very well. Hideo's creation is more akin to john carpenters early work. Hideki and Suda 51 and to an extent Yoko Taro are all constantly emulating the grindhouse of Robert Rodriguez. That doesnt work for metal gear. Is metal gear over the top at times? Yes. But it has its own flavor profile. Platinum games mixes chocolate ovaltine powder into freshly squeezed lemonade and serves it in a chalice. Not to mention, putting the metal in gear is something only Jamie Christofersson could do.......unless they hired Dragonforce, or Emperor, or Ulver, or Mudvayne, or Breaking Benjamin, or three doors down. I remember when i was in high school
All the comic shots are from the Digital Graphic Novel released for the PSP. Which have a slightly altered canon from the original - but most actors reprised their roles. I just used it to help spice up parts and fill the gaps where there really was no footage I could use.
liking the video, but some of the mgs2 lore is incorrect in this video. it was not to build Solid Snake’s, but to train the Ai. Solidus didnt die in Manhattan but was paralyzed (basically braindead too), Rose and Raiden were not married or engaged prior to 2, nor was she actually involved during big shell. Bravo Team was likely unaware of Raiden, and the image/voice of the Colonel was said to have been crafted by Raiden himself. GW obviously still existing, but Campbell’s persona was crafted by Raiden’s psyche

This is actually the coolest story I've read from a commentor regarding Raiden/Snake in Fortnite. That is so badass dude, please enjoy.
MGSV is a Grind hell hahahaha
great that u found this diamond.
@@ChipmunkuChanbible?
"when snake came to fortnite" had me rolling on the ground DEAD ASS
i just realised that snake's "pliskin" disguise looks like the outfit he wore in the OG 2D metal gear game
I thought the same thing, if we ever got a MG1/2 remake I'd expect Snake to look a lot like his Plisskin persona.
Raiden definitely deserves more attention 😭 thank you for a video, it was amazing
Thank you too!!
I've been WAITING for someone to make a comprehensive video like this about Raiden and his story for ages! Thank you so much for the incredible video, it was everything I ever wanted :)
I just came from the MGS explained video looking for the revengence one. I am thoroughly Hyped
Gotta get back, back to the past, samurai Jack.
Do you guys think snake hangs out in country clubs with a margarita in his retirement after mgs4
Hell yeah! Him and Max Payne, enjoying some well-deserved R&R the only way such hardened me can: with goddamn margaritas, baby.
I feel like he goes back to Alaska, where he was before he came out of retirement all those years ago. Lived the rest of his life in peace with his Husky's

Well done, I haven't heard the entire Revengance story. Much appreciated.
Thank you for this.
Raiden turn off the game console right now!!
Bigtuna lied to me I will not forgive him
What did you say???
The mission is a failure. cut the power right now. @@jcly96
I almost turned the console off when that happened lmao
Mannnn these videos are so good, i watched the entire MGS vid in one sitting, i can tell this is gonna be just as good, excited for whatevers next
Dude keep these coming! So many other characters I’d love to see you cover like this. Great work
i'm using this video to explain why i love Raiden as a character so much (if anyone asks). fantastic job!
"Major what are you doing here? I've been waiting for you in my room!"
* Salutes *
* ball grab *
"Who are you?"
most sane MGS interaction
I jarring had a Christmas themed ad cut into Raiders PTSD episode
Well researched, excellent writing and prose...Definitely a definitive MGS lore video.
Glad you enjoyed it!!
Super well done!!

@@ChipmunkuChanPTSD dude is creep as fck
did you say NERD?
I said "ChipmunkuChan releasing another banger"
Oh.
Still wish we had the original MGR plot with Raiden's story in-between MGS2/4 and telling the story of how he gets his cyborg body and rescues Sonny.
Raiden is Nightwing to Solid Snake's Batman.
I slept at the last 20 of the premiere lol, but I watched it again and this was *chef's kiss* perfect

bout to speedrun a work project and the GOAT just had to drop. Thanks Chimpmunku stay awesome
This kinda gave me the urge to boot up Rising again 😎
Absolute banger
This needs far more views
Konami better make all of their new games with Raiden as the hardened soldier Snake trope. That would be an interesting place to restart the series

another chimpmukuchan video i will watch and ENJOY while i play fnv
fallout new vegas is a great game to replay while listening to a video
This game needs to be remastered or a remake for next gen consoles ASAP

Most of the video made me cry. The MGRR part got me laughing
Oh good, why that's very good; yes i like that.
hell yeah
Raiden: codec call Green alert *takes two steps* codec call red alert
Now's the hard part......waiting 😭😭

everything else is good tho and a good video
pliskin is the same as the movies?
where do the comic parts of the video come from
Metal gear solid 2 Digital Graphic Novel
Where did you find the metal gear solid peace walker animation for raiden?
Those are from the Metal Gear Solid Motion Comic on PSP!
Did you say..... nerd!?
the ultimate take away here is that we should invest more in making child soldiers. and nothing else.

Fan favorite? Since when I still don't like Raiden at all. And I can't rant all day long on how he makes me cringe😂
This is cool and all but i miss the video essays 🫤
