WELL IF IT ISN'T SAUCY JACK!

It'll always be funny how some /v/irgins unironically agree with his ideology of the strong culling the weak. Chuds are as low as it gets in the social hierarchy, they should be glad we protect the weak. Also MGR itself is an ode against that ideology, why do people finish that game and still think Armstrong was right?

I don't think he's right, but his will and conviction are certainly inspiring. I wish I could be so headstrong and full of resolve.

>>724201716
He really is super attractive, I played the entirety of MGR and MGS2 with a semi-chub.

For the love of Christ please start using a trip code

Reminder Armstrong abducted street children and put their brains in cyborg child soldier VR training things located across the globe in an effort to create his own personal army of Raidens

this is bad because?

>>724204731
1. The entire thing relies on brainwashing/intimidation. There is no way to make kids loyal.
2. They are children. They are too incompetent to even train. There is no way to make kids strong.
3. Raiden is powerful because of his allies and friends not because of his child soldier training. There is no way to make kids strong.
4. Very expensive to keep those brains alive.
5. VR will not replace real training.

>>724204731
would you enjoy having that happen to yourself or someone that you love? if you say yes, then you must acknowledge the following:
>being taken against your will (kidnapped)
>having intrusive surgical operations performed on you to make you receptive to whatever VR brain vat machine they're going to throw you into
>being brainwashed with literal LIVELEAK brainrot of the most violent kind to desensitize you to human slaughter
>then putting you into the most lifelike video game simulation imaginable to train you to take human life indiscriminately
>so you can be a good little merc-bot for a faceless corporate entity that doesn't give two shits about you and will discard you the moment you're no longer useful
are you saying, knowing all of that, you'd condone this sort of operation? you might say yes but I don't believe you.

this is worse than being a street shitter and dying of cholera at 8?

>>724205516
>die like a dog
or
>get your brain stolen and put in some vr torture chamber

yeah, you tell me anon

>>724205516
well, maybe not worse, but just as bad. it's not the same kind of suffering, but it is a gruesome suffering.

Yeah the orphan brain plotline seemed giga retarded.
I feel like that Armstrong would have a more neutral (maybe even nuanced) take if it focused entirely on what Sam did to Raiden where he started hearing the thoughts of the soldiers he killed.
Like replace the orphan brains in jars with guys and girls who were pressured into """"donating"""" their brains because of the failings of the current government system.
Then Raiden would probably have more internal conflict after hearing that Armstrong wants to do away with that system that caused people to have no choice but to become brains in jars or expendable cyborg soldiers.
Of course, the debate would shift to if Armstrong was right to abuse the system in order to destroy it, which just becomes another "do the ends justify the means" storyline everyone's heard a bajillion times.
I dunno, maybe the orphan brain plot is the way it is cause it's more entertaining. Sure as hell made Armstrong an incredibly memorable (and memable) antagonist.

>>724206039
The part with Raiden hearing the soldiers' thoughts and getting depressed over it was retarded.

is this body type achievable natty?

literally how

>>724201480 (OP)
I still haven't played his game.

>>724208195
you should. its one of those rare games where you grin almost the whole way through, during every cutscene and boss fight.

>>724206802
Yes

>>724202324
ON THE EDGE

>>724206696
But it made perfect sense, especially the Denver PD where because of the shitty capitalist system they're in they had to sign away control of their body to either survive or support their family. So it makes sense that the moment you take out the NANOMACHINES and drugs that make them obedient killing machines, they'd be scared shitless. Same thing happened in MGS4 when Ocelot tried to take over the Patriot system.
I mean if everyone you fought was ICE jackboots who enjoyed inflicting suffering on innocents, would that create any sort of moral crisis for Raiden? Of course not, he'd rip them up and pat himself on the back.

Fags STILL can't refute him so all they can do is seethe.

>>724202537
He was buddying up with the assholes doing that so he could eventually murderfuck every last one of them and he says as much in the game.

armstrong's appeal is that he comes off as a narcissistic idiot brute who only spouts "might makes right" due to being strong but then he is happy about raiden killing him and it turns out he was genuine all along

>play MGS3 ages ago on PS2
>get stuck at the boss fight with the lightning guy after planting the bombs
>have other games to play, don't bother getting back to it
>end up selling off PS2 and games before I got back to it
>fast forward to today, download Delta and install
>playing through feels close enough to original and it's been so long I can't tell the difference
>finally going to finish this game
>already thinking about ways to take that boss on, like seeing if I can flash-bang him and hop inside of a cardboard box or use thermal goggles to avoid the flash
>get to that fight
>game keeps crashing during the fight, can't finish it
>every fucking time
>hasn't crashed before now, but won't stop crashing in that boss fight
>can't finish the damn game
Well, maybe 10 years from now PS2 emulation will be good enough that I can play through MGS3 finally.
