HEYA! Hope you all enjoy today's episode 🥰 I'm still on vacation right now so I'm sorry for the lack of replies on your comments, but I've read some and I wanted to address the confusion regarding the binoculars + sniper scope I've seen from a few peeps:
In this very video (I think? pretty sure. EDIT: yes, at 6:33 ) Master recommends using the binoculars to locate your enemy, then use the sniper rifle to shoot, because the scope of the sniper rifle is strong but veeery slow/short scope of view. So I'm just doing what the game recommends, and it made sense to me. Maybe some of you don't remember, so I would suggest you go play the game again if you can and use the sniper rifle. You'll understand how clunky and slow it is, and trying to find Sniper Wolf with it in that snowfield is a nightmare.
On other matters, thank you so much for the continued support on this series. I've had some very lovely comments from you guys and I can't express enough how awesome it is to connect with like minded people who also think this game is a masterpiece ❤️
Other frequently asked question: yes, I will play MGS2 and 3 back to back! I'm currently playing MGS2 (already done with MGS).
Thank you again and have an awesome day 🥰
Nikita channn
heads up on some extra content in the menus of MGS2 that most miss, might make a good thing to read split up between videos if you want to: go to the menu labeled "Special" on the main title screen, you will find a newspaper review of a book and an article about there being online buzz about a Shadow Moses Conspiracy; after looking at those, it unlocks the book mentioned in the review, called IN THE DARKNESS OF SHADOW MOSES: THE UNOFFICIAL STORY, which is an account written by Natasha that starts during the events of MGS1 and ties to the two games together more.
In terms of spoilers, it's ok to read when you want to.
MGS 2 next
"You're pretty good!"
MGS2 will blow your mind in more ways than one, it still scares me how it was predicting the future. You'll just have to play and see 😎
You have to play 4 as well sometime if you wanna end the story properly though.
I recently watched another popular content creator (who shall remain nameless) play through this franchise on Twitch, who was constantly more focused on reading live chat and cracking jokes than listening to CODEC calls or paying attention to cut scene dialog or what was happening in important moments, and then repeatedly found themselves confused and insisted that the story was too complicated to follow. And while watching someone fail and flounder at a game can be its own kind of entertaining, it's really not what makes the MGS series tick, imo.
All that said: I just want to comment how incredibly satisfying it is to watch this playthrough in contrast to that one. Seeing someone experience this game for the first time and really pay attention to the story and the details well enough to not only comprehend things, but to be a step ahead of several major reveals (like the DARPA Chief / Octopus situation, the PAL code & key gambit, etc) is honestly commendable. You've done really great with this, and I can't wait to see your conclusion of this game, and your experience with future titles in the series!
Aside from that: can you link the specific Terminator song you mentioned in the intro? I'm not familiar with that series and am very curious to hear it and compare!
Streaming has destroyed the experience of playing a story-based game for so many people, unfortunately.
I think she meant the terminator love theme on youtube, could be wrong though.
Exactly my thoughts!
I also can't stand it when the people have to constantly read the chat in the stream, greet people and be distracted by soundalerts or else.
Nothing against streaming per se, anyone can do it anyway, but it just doesn't fit when it comes to such a story-driven franchise,
where you really have to pay close attention to what's happening and what's being said.
People should rather inform themselves in advance and then not let the community decide,
or tell the community that they would like to play it alone!
@@deathtoraiden2080 Sorry, I fully don't agree with this wholesale disregard for Twitch as a platform, or the notion that anyone needs to "scrutinize the behavior" of people putting out content. All of that sounds super gross and judgmental, imo.
@@deathtoraiden2080
I think I know which streamer you're talking about and that playthrough was insufferable to watch, I had to stop.
Tho admittingly this creators guesses are getting a lil... Hmm.
35:40 The disc swap "Game Over" jump scare!! 🤣
Never noticed Otacon's glasses anime-shine when Snake calls him a hacker before, LMAO nice
Right?! So funny 🤣
Throwing soldiers in the furnace pool is brutal. :D Good episode.
Hehe thank you!;
While ff7 is my favourite game and had a more “famous” death.. 8 year old me always found Sniper Wolf’s death more impactful
Same when I first played those games back in the day.
MGS1 and FF7 has the most impactful deaths scenes in the PS1 era.
And now look where we are. Watching some broad play videogames for money so we can get a dopamine hit.
Saw your videos of MGS, bought it myself, played it like a madman for 10h and got the good old ending again like 20 odd years ago, what a trip down memory lane on the nostalgia express!
That's sooo awesome I love that!
@@WhimsyPsyche Before I had no clue it was even playable on PC, so massive thanks for that!
Goddamn…. Your MGS videos makes me feel so good…. I love to replay for the first time through your eyes something I played a long time ago….. I cannot believe how much your thinking process is akin to mine back then, this franchise is very important to me…. Much Love to y’all…. And Hope Whimsy is having a blast on her vacation, SNAKKKKKEEEEEE !!!!!!!!!!
Thank you so much Edward, I'm glad you're enjoying 🥰 Yes that feeling is the closest we can get to playing again for the first time! That's also why I watch other people's first playthrough or reaction to my favorite games & movies!
if you're using the cardboard box and you block the guard's patrol route, they will always flip it over. if you're not in their way they will go over to it to look at it but never flip it over.
After the M61 Vulcan cannon was created for fighter planes, the military asked General Electric to make a scaled down version to fire 7.62mm instead of 20mm, to put even more firepower in places where you'd normally have mounted machine guns. Helicopter door guns, on top of vehicles, fixed emplacements, etc. This scaled down version was naturally referred to as the "mini gun." Its still commonly used in the military, but its also become a Hollywood staple, seen in movies like Predator and Terminator 2 (though in real life it has far too much recoil for a person to handle and is only used as a mounted weapon). I feel like when they were designing Vulcan Raven, they wanted something to kind of have the same energy as those movies - a big scary dude with a big scary gun - but then said screw it, lets not not even settle for the "mini" gun, let's give him the full freaking size version.
OH THAT CLUTCH ENDING WITH RAVEN! With the Claymores and the last C4, the spirit of the ear pull battles allright!
I thought I was about to pull another Cyborg Ninja fail 🤣
Nikita rockets . And sniper is done
“I am lung shot…” honey you are lung *exploded*
doesn't feel as cool of a victory though 😂
Yes, Terminator was an inspiration. Metal Geat Solid isnt the first Metal Gear game. The song is from the original Metal Gear games which came out in the 80s. Not only was the song inspired by Terminator, the front cover of the 80s Metal Gear game also had the terminator character Kyle Reese, front and centre.
When they reference Zanzabar, gray wolf, snake killing big boss etc, all that took place in the 80s Metal Gear games.
I had no idea about those earlier games until years later, always thought Metal Gear solid was the first in the series.
I never knew about the earlier games until a second play through, when I found the Previous Missions file, and thought they made this crazy dense back story. "It's like another game happened! they should make a prequel!" was my exact thought.
This is still ignoring that the main theme of Metal Gear was stolen from the composer Georgy Sviridov who, from his origins (RUSSIAN) and the time when he composed this, should not have used Terminator too much as a reference for his compositions. And I'm not even talking about the fact that he composed this well before Terminator came out. If there is any possible influence from this film, music is certainly not one of them. James Bond would be a much more important influence than Terminator for this series of games and in many many aspects.
In reality, the concept of a solitary hero not resembling a bodybuilder like Kyle Reese (ironically or symbolically facing Schwarzenegger who was one) does not date from this film and the coincidences that can therefore easily be deduced from it are not may not really be what makes the beliefs of this kind of influence completely obsolete.
The character itself is inspired by Van Damme's body and not by any Michael Biehn (Kyle Reese).
And his code name is inspired by Snake Plissken (Kurt Russell) in New York 1997 released a good 3 years before Terminator and resembling much much more the protagonist of this video game series.
If only for the mini gun, Predator appeared well before Terminator 2, in fact it is also a more memorable tool and for a fan of films like Kojima is portrayed, there is little chance that he knows the Mini gun scene of terminator 2 without having known well before (around 4 years) that of Predator. So this is another shortcut that's easy to take.
How did i not discver your channel before? im loving your commentary, character and gameplays! so much to catch on up!
Aaah that's so kind thank you 🥰
ONE BULLET AND A DREAM LET'S GOOOO! The sniper fights in these games are always a wild ride. Major props to you, I'm so used to absolutely cheesing the Wolf fight with the Nikita that I'm not sure I could legitimately go toe to toe with her without several silly deaths. As a side note, I think sometimes people forget that not everyone has played through a game 100 times like they have, so they forget that people are going to have to experiment and try things to see what works. They don't just know the answer immediately. That's literally part of the fun. As I said before, this playthrough is a blast! Still absolute aces!
Thank you so much for your comment, you truly get it!! Yes a lot of people seem to forget how they were playing on their own first play, happens on every first playthrough content creators post 🤣 Makes me really happy that some people like you understand though, so thank you! I'm glad you're enjoying 🥰
@@WhimsyPsyche The fights beyond Ocelot can definitely be hard the first time and especially in the 90s, I actually do remember having the exact same trouble with Gray Fox where I didn't realize you should fist fight him at all for like 10 tries and feeling stupid that I didn't get all the hints. I do think you can stun lock Sniper Wolf in one or both of the fights though, which I didn't find out for a few plays, like just rapid fire and get in half a health bar's worth of hits before she moves. (Maybe I'm thinking of MGS2?)
@@deathtoraiden2080 lol I feel ya. I mean it can be cool to see people who are so good at the game, they completely walk through everything on the hardest difficulty like it's nothing, but people have to recognize that is basically another genre of video. The guy who has memorized that pathing and is hyper efficient at every boss fight, was not that way his first play through of the game. So, as good as Whimsy is at games (looking at that no first person Nikita in the electric gas room 👀👀) it's unfair to expect that hyper efficiency from her. Besides, she definitely planned that Wolf boss fight to end on her last bullet for us, the audience's, benefit to build the tension. Like an Oscar winning director. Whimsy Spielberg :P
Loving the series Whimsy! Keep it up!
Damn! That sniper duel was great! Psycho Mantis will always be the most memorable boss for obvious reasons, but that fight made me déjà vu back to the relief of beating Sniper Wolf after getting frustrated at that initial wall of "wtf how?" 😂
What makes this game great is you can use all the tools in different ways. Didn't even think to use claymores against Raven but apparently it works very well here
32:56 35:41 Kojima played Whimsy like a damn fiddle
Wow, again, for a game from 1998, the scene with sniperwulf is quite impactful. I continue to be amazed with every encounter.
Hi there! Just started watching your playthrough after several years of not watching any lets plays on UA-cam. Im glad I started watching with yours
Aaah that's so sweet! Hope you're enjoying 🥰
13:41 Very few ppl notice this detail on their 1st playthrough, I surely didn’t notice until much much later.
Edit: 1:05:48 No f****** way she got that codec call as well! Nice one! 🤣
I always used the Nikita missiles for this Sniper wolf battle. Just stand behind cover on the right hand side of the arena, shoot the rockets left, steer them into wolf.
Finally caught up on playthrough! It's always nice to see new playthroughs of of the Mgs series cause it's soo good! Keep up the great content and I'm excited for more! ❤️
You’re getting so close to the end. I’m very excited! It’s crazy how you’ve really gotten the hang of things so quickly and how you’re piecing certain things together with the story. It’s such a cool stealth spy game! Metal gear solid 1 will always be my favorite game of all time.
Thank you sooo much I appreciate that! I try 🤣
@@WhimsyPsyche keep in mind that most of the people in the comment section criticizing you on your gameplay grew up playing this game as a kid or teenager…….this is your FIRST time playing this and you’re going in blind, only using with the game offers for assistance. You’re truly doing incredible Whimsy!
13:44 THIS GAAAME, always surprising me with new things!
Love your videos
I've been a massive fan of Metal Gear since 1998 and I genuinely have enjoyed watching your episodes of your first playthrough.
I've been laughing and smiling along with you. I'm glad you are enjoying it 😊
New viewer and I've very much enjoyed watching you play through my favourite game that I grew up with and seeing you work out all the twists and turns its a joy seeing other people play through this with no prior knowledge. I'm very much looking forward to seeing the conclusion 😁👍
Thank you so much 🥰
Great episode! Looking forward to the Otacon stealth camo cosplay next episode, where you just have your camera off.
HAHAHHA that's genius 🤣🤣🤣
The translation and dubbing in this was perfect. Sometimes direct translation isn't always the best way to go.
Loved this episode, the Sniper wolf battle was so cool (i never actually snipe dueled her as a kid I used to just kill her with the Nakita rockets launcher ^_^ ) also the 18 hours this is funny it takes about 4 or so hours to clear if you know where you are going but if you let the clock tick out to 18 hours then you get a game over screen :)
I love how thorough you are Whimsy! I’ve heard dialogue during this playthrough that I had never heard before 😅
I was 10 years old the first time I played this back in 98 and I didn’t know English, which made it even more challenging. I also only had the demo which gets you up to the fight with Sniper Wolf. I didn’t get to finish it until years later but at that point I could understand English. This game will always hold a special place in my gamer heart.
Looking forward to the finale!
I remember being a kid and playing a demo disc which had the first 2 areas (getting to the elevator and the helipod) and playing it non stop. Then when I got the game once it was released I played it so much I could complete it 100% in between 1h:30 - 2hours, if I remember right (there was a myth about being able to use liquid if you finished it in less than an hour an a half and since this was before internet was what it is now the only way to actually know for sure was to try). Glad to see people discover it now and have fun with it.
YES!!!! Watching the whole video as we speak...while editing a video I'm working on! Hahaha!!
Your face when you figured out what they were doing with the PAL :D.
Loving this playthrough, every game in this franchise is incredible so i'm stoked to see you're going to keep going, i'm always worried someone's going to burn out playing multiple entries of a franchise back to back but i think i'm right in saying you've become a big fan so i'm not too worried :P, if you want to take a break between them please do, if not let's freaking go!
Enjoy the rest of your vacation.
were counting on you whimsy😅
I was happy that the master collection came out as it lets more people play the games I fell in love with when I was a kid and get to see peoples reactions to the series is great.
ahhh fond memories of cheesing the Wolf fight with Nikita missiles!
39:57 BRUH!!! I can’t stop laughing! 😂🤣🤣💀💀
For Vulkan Raven I've always used Claymore + Mine detector, and Stinger on obvious corners.
That helped me a lot for the Big Boss trophy.
In 26 years of playing this game I NEVER knew there was an elevator in the blast furnace! It seems useless, but still amazing the unexplored parts of the game...
Aaaand I never knew that you could find the pal key in the toxic water in that 26 years! I always had to kill the rat that ate it!
I honestly don't understand why they put an elevator there tbh 🤣 haha glad you could see some new stuff!!
If you keep the handkerchief equipped, it keeps the wolves away from you because it has her scent and she’s been taking care of the wolves since she got there. If I’m incorrectly it plays a role later in the game. It’s been years since I played it though.
What's also funny, the music of MGS had issues with sounding too close to the Mission Impossible main theme....so in later numbers of the series, they changed main themes. But the music of the series is incredible!
35:55 🤣🤣🤣
On the elevator part, all you had to do is shoot them with your gun 😂
Decades later and I never knew about the parachute thing. WTF :o I adore MGS
Damn, the Sniper Wolf death scene always makes me sad. Dunno why but her whole charactergets to me. Crazy how good the bosses are in MGS1 compared to the later games.
Me too. Also i dont know you can use nikita missiles on sniper wolf. Great thing on Metal gears games is that you have so many ways to do the things.
My favorite game of all time since it came out I had no idea there was an elevator there..
I totally hear the similarities between MGS theme and Brad Fidel's Terminator score from 1984. I always thought it reminded me of something, but hearing your story about comparing the two made it click! Nice job getting that sniper kill with no bullet to spare! At 28:22 was that a Braveheart reference? "Freedom!" Your narration about nuclear launch protocol was really great too.
Kojima is a huge movie buff, so i definitely think he and the sound team took some inspiration from the terminator theme lol
The cardboard boxes are not only for hiding but also for fast traveling
Really enjoying these reactions! I completed MGS1 in one sitting at a sleepover when I was 14, now I'm in my 30s... I still play MGS1 every year to completion though.
Im loving this playthrough... excited to see your cosplay for the finale too lol. Are you going to play 2 and 3 also? I hope you do they will blow your mind
Sniper wolf fight is so much easier if you just follow her with the scope of the sniper rifle when she runs. You shoot and then follow her. I never change positions. Even if she shoots you. You started doing that then which was great. You figured it out. You can also kill her with the Nikita missile launcher. You can hide in the corner and just keep shooting the missile and just fly them right to her.
Random fact: The Sniper Wolf death scene is one of two of David Hayter's (voice actor for Solid Snake) favorite scenes in the entire franchise. His other favorite is in MGS3, no spoilers, but hopefully you experience it. It's also his, and many other fans' favorite game in the series.
@@deathtoraiden2080 "Huh," - Snake
The music when your fighting the shaman is from Speed, so Terminator and Speed music in this awesome game
I love how puzzles and getting around is no problem for her but fighting 😢
Wait WHAT? I really remember a rat running away with the pal key after it falls. Tth!
Your deduction for the PAL key(s) was amazing! I never realized it but Ocelot - whether on purpose or accident - slipped up. When he was torturing Snake he asked Snake if there was a trick to using the keys. While speaking with Liquid, he said, “he didn’t have any keys on him.”
Damn it, Snake!! Pay attention 😂😂
I’ve looooved this play through! Hope you play MGS 2,3 & 4 as well!
loving your run of this masterpiece so much and how you always have your thoughts and theory's at the end :)
absolutely can't wait for the finale :P
Thank you so much, I'm glad 🥰
Fierce snow storm, the howling of wolves, the death of a sniper 🐺 😢.
41:09
Literally everyone fails there, since you have to keep pressing one button even if you wanna crouch.
What.. newer seen that parachute myself in my playthroughs! O.o
40:00 Railing kill!
Next episode is cosplay?
Snake: "MERYL!?"
39:57 Nice grab !
Haha thank you!!
I like the concept idea of creating the "bad guys" for this game. "Just because we're on the opposite sides doesn't mean we're bad people"
❤
Yes, the Ear Pull is a real thing. It was a traditional Inuit game to practice endurance and pain tolerance. They would loop a string from one ear to the opponent's (right ear to right ear, or left to left) and pull. Bleeding and even the need for stitching were quite common. Not practiced very much in the official games, anymore.
The handkerchief was to cross through the wolves without been harmed, and the Ketchup was to scape the cell, you lie down and press circle while you have it equiped.
I was just thinking about the box. And how Snake hiding in a box has been a gag for years.
Then I remembered one you may know. Or can look up safely without worrying about any spoilers.
The Smash Bros Ultimate trailer for Switch.
When every character is being hit by that light wave. When it shows Snake. It's a box. 🙃
I think the handkerchief is for the huskies in the caves so that they wont attack you if you equip it
You deserve way more subscribers. I really dig watching you. I hope you play mgs 2 and 3. And eventually 4 and peace walker whenever they eventually release
She will play MGS2 next and her plan is to play MGS3 before Delta comes out.
MGS4 and Peace Walker will be a bit difficult to play for her, since it's not widely available. Hopefully there will be a Master Collection Vol. 2 with those titles.
Speaking of Terminator.
Have you ever seen how a lot of Konami games on NES etc, had cover art that was made off real reference pictures?
Like the cover for Contra, the characters Bill and Lance were just Arnold Schwarzenegger from Predator.
Snake on the cover art for Metal Gear was the guy from Terminator 1.
There's a good video on UA-cam about the artist. Called something like "Drawing Konami".
Geez it was to hard to find the video with "drawing Konami". You'd think the UA-cam search could figure out what you want.
It was "The Man Who Drew Konami".
Good game play
Yes that stinger missed, it have to lock so quickscoping doesn't work (or it works sometimes).
You caught on to Metal Gear not being activated a lot quicker than I did the first time I played it...
You can use the cardboard boxes to travel when mounted on a truck. Just make sure you alert a passing gaurd so he can see you
Fittingly enough, there’s actually an ancient Kurdish proverb that says “The Kurds have no friends but the mountains.” Historically a majority of other Middle Eastern races have unfortunately often had the tendency to look down on the Kurdish people and the mountainous region they hail from. The majority of The Middle East has historically viewed the Kurds as the Middle Eastern equivalent of Appalachian hillbillies and as such they often have been treated as backward and inferior. Their mountain home, often their only refuge from the rest of the surrounding countries aggression to them at worst and the rest of The International Community’s apathy to their suffering at best.
Thanks🐀
Thank YOU so much!!
1:33:51 I was waiting for it 😂 no lie
Btw that guy on the stairs on the blast furnace is hard-coded to look for Snake, I've tested it myself, but I've never seen it so blatantly that the guy started to glitch in confusion "Ok i checked the box time to follow the path, wait but is Snake is right there i gotta prank him, but he's in a box i can't just check it again"
@@deathtoraiden2080 Except that every time I go between those two stairs that guard decides to go up.
@@deathtoraiden2080 However that glitch in the video could be an unrelated to his omniscience.
So Metal Gear's creator Hideo Kojima made this series as a love letter to 80s action movies; soyour dad hearing terminator song is on point lol. The box art for the first metal gear is freaking Kyle Reese from T1
The average 1980s action movie: Looky looky! We have a single missile! It's our only bargaining chip! Once we use it our demand is useless!
Metal Gear: THIS. BASE. IS. FULL. OF. SPARE. NUCLEAR. WARHEADS.
Nice! Got Sniper Wolf with your last bullet! You Creators make it suspenseful until the last minute, eh?
Revived by disc 2.
Raven will die of exhaustion if this goes on like this. 😂
Again make it suspenseful till the end. This gets a bit suspicious!
01:34:15 "Boss, we have 50 turrets left, what should we do with those?" - "Just put them all into that one room."
01:50:05 Just because you have a lot of Stinger ammo doesn't mean that you can just shoot any soldier with one.
The plot thickens! Super fun episode! Can't wait for your cosplay! Have a wonderful vacation day, Whimsy!
There is a lill trick about the metal floors that make noise when u walk on them, if u spam equip and unequip chaff grenades it bypasses the sound of the metal floor, also the chaff grenade in hand makes u walk a tiny bit faster. I know u finished the game by now but just incase u ever replay it or so .. ^^ prob works in mgs2 also (not 100% sure)
...in my many, MANY playthroughs of MGS, I never once stumbled across that parachute.
39:57, I didn't know you could do that, either.
Aaah I love when I can discover something some people haven't seen, that's so awesome 🥳
I love the music of this game and others in the series. Yes Terminator has multiple influences in this series including that song, but sadly there's also a slight issue of plagiarism in the main theme too. I believe they couldn't use the theme anymore after mgs 4 as it was found that part of the song is a quite straight copy of a song by a russian composer.
Been loving watching this playthrough, MGS blew my mind back in the day - I love that it still holds up so well, even if its control scheme is really from another time. I hope you decide to play MGS2 afterwards, but if not - thats fine, MGS as fantastic on its own regardless. Also, sucks to see shitty comments from smallbrain backseaters, hopefully you have mods that get rid of em :P
She will play MGS2 after this one.
They're playing you like a damn fiddle!
lol stop with the sun grenades. Just use your Famas!
After finishing this one, You'll want to play MGS2, 3, 4 and 5! Maybe even Portable Ops and Peace Walker from PSP! This story and characters are addictive!
She will play MGS2 right after this and plans to play 3 before Delta comes out.
Your voice is so addicting XD
54:12 It's the other one actually 😛
Rations rhymes with passions.
Hello! I'm enjoying your journey soooo much! Buuuuuut I think you think this is the first Metal Gear, but it isn't.
Before this game (Metal Gear Solid) there was "Metal Gear" and "Metal Gear 2" on the NES. On those games you fight against Big Boss. All the talk about Zanzibar and Frank Jaeger, that happens on those games.
I suggest you take a look at those games so you get the full previous information. This girl has 2 great videos about the story of those games:
Metal Gear Summary:
ua-cam.com/video/L1rGO3xlTYU/v-deo.htmlsi=BwpJK473PP_NTdBF
Metal Gear 2 Summary:
ua-cam.com/video/35GLbyG5cfA/v-deo.htmlsi=8uXZDnCKPHGRNhls
Hope this helps!
Thank you so much for your super thanks, that's SO kind!!
Yes I knew already about previous older games, but the Master Collection seems to be treating MGS 1 to 3 as a trilogy in a way. I was scared of spoilers so I didn't check the story of the previous games, but MGS does a good job of acknowledging them and mentioning them without it being too confusing imo. Didn't stop me from understanding the plot of this one, so in my humble newb experience, I would say it's not necessary to know all the plot of the previous games. I might be wrong though!
@@WhimsyPsyche Ok gotcha! Because I think it is important, I made you a 100% spoiler-free summary for both games as short as I could:
Metal Gear: A misterious mercenary on Africa has created an army group called Outer Heaven and has built a super weapon called Metal Gear. So the USA sends an expert soldier called Gray Fox to investigate, but he gets captured. U.S.A. sends a rookie, Solid Snake, to continue the mission, under the orders of his commanding officer: Big Boss (yes… I know). You eventually find Metal Gear and destroy it, then on your way to escaping Outer Heaven, you meet the misterious mercenary leader: Big Boss. Plot twist! Turns out he sent Snake to this mission so he could send false information to the USA government and fail the mission, but the turned out to be an awesome soldier. So you kill Big Boss, destroy Outer Heaven and escape. END.
Metal Gear 2: There’s a millitary uprising on Zanzibar (Asia), so Solid Snake gets to action under his new commanding officer: Colonel Roy Campbell. Master Miller, an old pal, helps you also on the mission via Codec. This group has a new Metal Gear... and eventually you find out that Big Boss is behind this new uprising. Turns out you didnt kill him, he is alive. Hoooooours later you find Gray Fox, who now wants to fight you. Why? He now works for Big Boss who turned him against USA, so you fight Gray Fox because now you're enemies and kill him. Then you find Big Boss and kill him again. END.
Repeating myself: Thank you so much! I'm enjoying this series of videos so much. It's amazing to see someone so meticulous like you realizing step by step how Hideo Kojima is a genius ahead of his time. 🤩
During Sniper Wolf's second boss fight, i go to the far right behind a little mountain and use the nikita. She can't hit you there, and the rockets can go up where Snake is able to walk (post-fight).
Also, you can't spare the bosses, and the game will explain why very soon.
I'm pretty sure that the cover art of Metal Gear 1 is simply the terminator or something like that.
Do you guys know that there is a chance that a rat get the pal key on the sewer? (Dont know if is random, on hard mode or if you take to long). So you have to hunt the bastard to get it. I heard that some people playing in the japanese version though the game got bugged cause they cant find the key on this part.
Great videos, by the way. Hope you play the rest of the series.
Oh the rat... forgot about that
Also wasn't Ocelot supposed to plant a bomb in her gear??
@@SchwaWasHere Hey, thats true! You find a bomb in your stuff right after escaping the cell. Maybe both things are just on hard mode.
Oh I know the part of the Terminator theme you're talking about, it is similar.
Whimsy vidéo for dining time : best ration ever !
‘ll send you a love letter, straight from my heart f***er ! You know what a love letter is?! It’s a bullet from a f***ing gun f***er!
That Sniper Wolf line is totally a reference to Frank in Blue Velvet.
