Which ending was better?
>OH MY GOD IM SO SCARED *pisses all over the place*
>>719639041No way
The one where Otacon Falls down the mountain
>>719639041The non-canon one, had more impact
>>719639041First run save Otacon for the camo.Second run save Meryl for the correct ending.
>>719639410I just pretend MGS4 doesn't exist and make that one canon.
>>719639410>Life isn't all about I II II IL you know
>>719639686MGS2 confirms Meryl's alive, but I personally ignore that one too because all the sequels were dogshit
>>719639793Side material, the extra features are NOTU CANONU
>>719639041Shit. I just realized that Kojima also invented alternate endings.
reminder that MGS1 was the best ending for the series as a love letter to action films and just like real life action films, everything afterwards was utterly unnecessary
>>719639410This, Otacon's and Snake's friendship is one of the kinoest parts of the MGS saga. Thankfully the devs were smart enough to not kill off Otacon despite it being the bad ending.>tfw no secret handshake with your best bro
Otacon. Not even close. The Meryl ending feels like a joke or afterthought, like NG+.>>719639932Kojima invented ending.
>>719639041The one where Snake gets laid (Otacon)
They both have their moments but the Meryl ending ends on a good note for everyone including Otacon.For some reason, people don't get that Campbell called off the nuclear strike. Otacon didn't die even though he was willing to in order to let Snake and Meryl escape.
>>719640218Otacon doesn't die in MGS1... the airstrike is cancelled and the Secretary of Defense is arrested by President George Sears (Solidus) for trying to nuke Shadow Moses.
>>719640403Imma take your word for it, for some reason I just remember Otacon dying in the MGS1 good ending, but I'm probably mixing that up with Meryl dying.
>>719641063>Otacon dying in the MGS1 good endingThat wouldn't make the ending good...
>>719639041After playing MGS4, Otacon. Save your bro, the ho will marry a guy who thinks he is a pajeet who can shit anywhere.
>>719641063He's sacrificing his life at the time you last speak to him before you escape, but when you make it out Campbell informs you that the bombers turned back as a result of a direct order from the President.
>>719639793utterly fucking basedFuck Kojima and his NTR/faggotry fetish
>>719639410What a gay
>>719639041In the long run Meryl existing was completely irrelevant to the plot of the series.
>>719644124>Wahhhh, I can't self-insert as a badass power fantasy who gets the womanPathetic. MGS1 boomers are blind to the brilliance of MGS2 and I pity them.
>>719639968MGS2 was necessary to prove we are all just living an emulates life to gather data for AI which will reproduce all our experiences and creations to make slop for future generations to live vicariously through. We are all just data mining for master.
>>719644216That's just Kojima being a fag though. If I had known way back in 1998 that Kojima was ultimately going to pair Meryl with the comedic side kick soldier who had perpetual diarrhea just because he can't get over his BIg Boss oneitis, I'd have probably picked the Otacon ending too. But hindsight is 20/20, and Kojima was proven to be a hack writer in the end. >>719644341delusional>>719644308This isn't about self-insertion, retarded zoomer. It's about proper thematic elements. MGS 1 was overcoming your own nature, your DNA, "recessive" genes (despite Kojima not really understanding what that word meant in relation to genetics) and finding hope for the future. It was about not being tied down by the past. But then MGS 2 and 4 come along, and it basically hard resets everything to the point where Kojima tells the player >Yeah, actually...your genes DO tie you down. You are FUCKED. You WILL suffer from advanced again, you WILL attempt to kill yourself in a cemetery, you WILL get cucked and die alone in a shed somewhere while Meryl elopes with Johnny. Did you rike it? *raughter in Japanese intensifies*
>>719639041>>719639410Agreed. I tend to go for the Otacon ending because to me it feels more fitting.
>>719644595*advanced aging
>People can't follow the basic plot and progression elements of MGS1.The internet was a mistake, i wish i never knew you retards ever existed.
>>719639041meryl ending had caribou so that one
>>719640403>the Secretary of Defensemy favorite line from this one time character?>You two are an embarrassment from the 1970'sincluding solidus but see he didn't know that.
>>719639968MGS2's Tanker mission could've been DLC for Twin Snakes, showcasing the kinds of missions Snake has to take on after the Shadow Moses incident, without necessarily implying it would end.MGS3 would then have been welcome, alongside 5 as prequels, making MGS1 the corner stone.
>>719644124Ending doesn't affect the best girl
>>719644906which side is this implicating
https://youtu.be/pRLeEsBwz4EWas Snake ever this emotional again?
>>719646451Man, been years since I last played MSG1, I forgot she didn't even get any last words. She's just fucking dead.
>>719639041Having Liquid chase you out was fun, but Otacon ending was more kino.
