To those who haven't played the games, the story is even crazier than how he's explaining it

[vVex_]

“He’s just named David”

Never change, Kojima. Never change.

[mercinary]

If you thought that was confusing he didnt even mention Ocelot, metal gear itself, or the La-Li-Lu-Le-Lo.

This franchise's story is the embodiment of making shit up as you talk

[MidianPOfficialytch]

The Boss = Mother Figure to Naked Snake
Naked Snake = Big Boss (named changed when he killed The Boss)
Venom Snake = Also Punished Snake and Body Double to Big Boss, (still given Big Boss Title)
Solid Snake = One of the Clones of Big Boss (True Name David)
Liquid Snake = One of the Clones of Big Boss (True Name Eli)
Solidus Snake = One of the Clones of Big Boss (True Name George Sears became US President)
Raiden = Given Snake Name at Beginning and Change to Raiden (Adopted Son to Solidus) aka Jack The Ripper
Ocelot = Aka Revolver Ocelot or Just Ocelot (True Biological Son of The Boss)

“Just a man who sold the world”

That’s the best way to explain it.

[ChestinysDialed]

"So who's the cyborg ninja?"

cyborg ninja?"

I remember reading a comment on an MGR music video saying that the entire MGS saga was started by a bald man in a latex suit forgetting his meds and went on a power trip.

And that description is eerily accurate.

[LeKingCarnage]

Venom is still considered Big Boss. The lines "I'm Big Boss, and you are, too... No... He's the two of us. Together." speaks for itself.

[dorasuncle]

What's crazy is that I understood all of that

[ceptor]

>Uses the Solid Snake render from Smash

NO! That is NOT Solid Snake!

[ListersHatsune]

To be fair, they each make sense in their induvidual games. It's only a mess if you're trying to explain all of them. Them all being "Snake" just means you know hwo the main character is.

[MostBoredMan]

"Who's he?"

" Just a man who *Sold The world* "

[genicksforce]

If you dont know this game's lore, better get your tea, and get your snacks, because you got a lot of ground to cover

[Robospy]

"No! That is NOT Solid Snake!"

[BG-BSS_OO]

This is exactly how it feels whenever I have to explain to my friends or brother about the series, luckily my uncle is a fan so he gets my jokes, he’s the only one in the family other than me that plays the games

[kellywinters]

Kojima: It doesn't need to make sense it just needs to be badass.

[kurtsurban]

Alright MF's here is what I know from the clips and snippets I know.
Naked Snake was the first snake, trained by the Boss who tried to kill him then switched sides to big bad guys after revealing she was a spy. Turns out she was a double agent this whole time to fool the enemy into thinking she works for them, and let Snake kill her since there can only be one Boss. She died a patriot but was forgotten and tarnished, leading Snake, now Big Boss to create a secret organization that will serve the soldier instead of the country. To protect himself as he makes this new base, he had brainwashed and facially reconstructed a medic who was also his friend to think he was Big Boss, named Venom Snake. Venom's job was to make the Big Boss a living legend, but to also make all international focus on him, keeping the real Big Boss safe as he built the organization. Solid and Liquid snake are then created from Big Boss's DNA to be the ultimate soldiers

In the end, Snake was the friends we made along the way.

"No, she's a mother." really got me for some reason. XD Great video.
