    I didn't think it was that weird when I played it, now that people are pointing it out and it's a meme, I can kinda see it, but still.

      Really? You didn't see anything wrong the the main villain exposing his grand plan without the main character retorting in any way, and then spending half the trip in complete silence?

        Snake was never one to respond with witty remarks to the villians monlogues, maybe Solid but never Naked/Big Boss

        The biggest Boss "responded" moment to an enemy speech was educating Ocelot how gun engravings give you no tactical advantage whatsoever

        The game had long established the MC as a mute self-insert by that point so it wasn’t surprising

          Then if the character is mute, why put him in a situation that begs a conversation, and not a monologue?

            You are the one begging for a conversation, Skullface just wanted to monologue like he has done since Ground Zeroes

    it's pretty obvious there was more to this scene but the homosexuals at konami didn't let him finish the fricking game.

    This scene is even funnier when you see someone else going through it. My roommate in uni was playing this and I came back during the drive and he was just spinning the camera like a spaz while we both laughed at it. I bet Kojima thought this was going to be like his version of that still shot in Evangelion.

    I dont know man, i kinda liked it
    Kojima did well on building Skullface like a psycho since Ground Zeroes, what he did to Paz, destroying MotherBase, getting Huey to defect...twice

    IT kinda made YOU (the player) mad at SkullFace thanks to how fricking furious Kaz was at him, so when you are finally face to face it felt like a "I cant wait to shoot all your limbs off, so do all the talking while you can"

    I shot him, for Kaz

    I feel like if you only thought the final scene was nonsense then you weren't paying attention to the rest of the game.

    Fricking male-to-female wolbachia copulation and shit, man. And that boss from MGS3 comes back from the dead but he's made of fire now for some reason. None of it made any sense. It was clearly all just scenes that Kojimbo thought would be dramatic despite being stupid strung together with the thinnest of relevance and called a story.

    You will also be ashamed of your words and your deeds.

      Volgin coming back was silly but at least they did stuck to their own rules, Volgin was nothing but a corpse pulled back into life thanks to his lust for revange resonating with kid psycho mantis, so when Eli comes into the scene he is quickly forgotten since Eli had more anger than both Volgin and Skullface

          He meant that calling Volgin "That Boss from MGS3" shows you didnt play the game i think

      You dont believe that do you? That was always all bullshit and what was always in the game contradicted what was alleged. There is something of an unfinished area cordoned off on the Africa map but no village, but that was never talked about at the time.

        >You dont believe that do you?

        I 100% believe it because the scene is so fricking stupid that there is simply no way it was intended to be the way it is. Only way it makes sense is if it was a last-minute rushed replacement for something they couldn't get to work in time.

      i think they were aiming for a tense scene, you keep thinking something is gonna happen midtrip... and then nothing happens EXPECTACTIONS SUBVERTED BRAVO KOJIMA

      a bit of these two, in every escort scene in a movie or series you already know something is gonna happen otherwise it would be a boring ride from A to B, except it was a boring ride this time

    For me it's in Kingdom Hearts 3 towards the end when all the good guys are just standing around like cardboard cutouts getting whacked one by one. Pretty much every dramatic moment in that game plays out very awkwardly (by KH standards).

    this whole mission is inexplicable
    >the whole mission is to kill Skullface
    >see Skullface's chopper lands
    >doesn't shoot it down or take cover to surprise it or anything
    >instead confronts Skullface directly when he comes out and gets immediately outgunned by his guards
    >survives only because Skullface wants to see Venom duel Volgin
    >calmly walks into his Jeep and gets ferried all the way to his base
    >The Diamond Dog staff monitoring the situation never interfere even though their boss is being marched to his certain death
    >Venom still survives all of that because Kojima wrote himself into a corner and made Psycho Mantis switch side to save Venom in the nick of time
    I'm curious what the original plan was, because this whole sequence of events is bluntly moronic.

      Probably the exact same reason

      happened. Development hell pushing the devs to rush the ending while still trying to cover it up with stylistic choices.

        the difference is that the other ones are due to kojima's autistic writing. This one is clearly due to no budget.

    I'll be honest, I played MGS at my cousins house as a kid, Portable Ops was the first one I owned, then 5 I played until after this Metal Gear fight. I had no idea what story was meant to be going on.
