Whole asses it, lmao.

I think people are just hating on Solid because of what MGS4 turned out to be. Everyone had a boner for Solid until MGS4.

I want to see someone edit the line from Kaz (thats something like); "we'll do wet work, what ever it takes" over a clip of the rain cutscene with Quiet and Big Boss

You know, I saw a thread last night about how Solid Snake is shit, and a terrible character. Not sure if I agree. Solid, according to some, was a pawn until the very end and during all of his endeavours, even after destroying the Patriots, he had no idea what he was doing. Unsure if I agree with this, to be honest with ya. Solid has always had (even if it was in the single digits before MGS1) a group of people he either cared about and loved, or cared about and loved him. Whether he was a pawn or not, he fought to keep the world safe, for them. He made sure there was a future for the ones he cared for. A world free of Snakes, free of the Patriots and free of the ideals of Big Boss. In comparison to Solid, all of the other Snakes were dumb as fuck. Big Boss and Zero ruined the world for everyone on it all because they couldn't get over their permanent boner for The Joy and her vision, of which they all had skewed ideas on.

Meanwhile Solid did his duties, washed away his sins and the sins of his father (kek) so a new generation could live safe, and free and make a future for themselves. People are also going on about how Big Boss died a lonely man, full of regrets all while Solid died (let's face it, he's dead) knowing all or most of his loved ones genuinely cared for him and with the peace of mind and a clear conscience. But to me, I see it as Big Boss (MGS4) died with his son by his side. A son, a man in every sense of the word who had righted his wrongs, rinsed the blood from his hands and was shown to be among the absolute best of men. To me, I don't see that as dying lonely. I see that as dying happily. ''This is good, isn't it?'' comes to mind.

Something Bunnyhop said really struck me.. Solid (and Octacon) are the only ones who actually 'get' The Boss's vision
