I remember coming away from this just hating The Boss.
What an irredeemable 'tard.
I guess on the deepest level, she wants to put Snake through purgatory, make him completely stone-cold. Make him a machine so he can continue her ultimate mission, to destroy the network-machinery of the Patriot System. And this involves a trauma like killing her.
But the surface-level narrative Red Herring, "SHE WAS... A PATRIOT" sap-fest was too obnoxious.
It makes her out to be an absolute tool.
I like that she had a fairly strong-featured, handsome face. At least she didn't look very girly. Not 100% noodle-armed either. We've had a lot worse in terms of nerd-culture Stronk Women.
How Eva manages to survive a log through her intestines and heal in 1 day, though?... please.
I wonder if Kojima would have the balls, or the imagination, to ever outright depict something like Eva's childhood brainwashing.
