    Metal Gear: Feats re-examined and tiers re-evaluated / Big Boss and Solid Snake

    I've already left my counter argument for DDM. I've directly linked the contradictions and laid them out for you to see. You still seem to think that these characters are harmed in gameplay whilst the cutscenes show they are not. Contradiction. The cutscene is treated as more accurate than...

    Metal Gear: Feats re-examined and tiers re-evaluated / Big Boss and Solid Snake

    That isn't what DDM has said, mostly just Bambu. Hes arguing on the basis of the websites standards of what week but hasn't linked anything to back it up. That and ignorance.

    Metal Gear: Feats re-examined and tiers re-evaluated / Big Boss and Solid Snake

    My argument isn't that Bambu is an idiot or anything, in fact far from it. It's just me throwing my observation out there. My actual arguments are lengthier and much more in-depth. I don't rely on someone's stupidity to prove my point. Im still waiting on an actual counter argument, my points...

    Metal Gear: Feats re-examined and tiers re-evaluated / Big Boss and Solid Snake

    More repeating yourself. As suspected. Harming giant mechs in gameplay barehanded, check. In the cutscenes? Said giant mech is impervious to your rockets and gunfire for the most part. Blatant contradiction. The standard is to follow cutscenes. You even agreed earlier in this thread but...

    Metal Gear: Feats re-examined and tiers re-evaluated / Big Boss and Solid Snake

    Yes and no, but I've explained it you twice now and you keep repeating your point like you're handicapped. The gameplay doesn't scale because aspects of it (you being able to do harm certain characters bare handed, being able to tank continuous gunfire, etc) are contradicted in cutscenes - as...

    Metal Gear: Feats re-examined and tiers re-evaluated / Big Boss and Solid Snake

    No, but most games that keep consistency between gameplay and cutscenes tend to show your character as damaged/exhausted regardless of the amount of damage you took. So yes, it does. The fact still remains that characters can perform feats and tank absurd attacks in gameplay that they are quite...

    Metal Gear: Feats re-examined and tiers re-evaluated / Big Boss and Solid Snake

    Except it does. If you get shot during the boss fight, and the cutscene rolls around with you being entirely unharmed, that means that as far as lore is concerned, you took no damage. It doesn't happen often in many games because most developers tend to show that your character is...

    Metal Gear: Feats re-examined and tiers re-evaluated / Big Boss and Solid Snake

    @DDM 1. Right, but just because he said it doesn't make it true. I've literally listed a couple very good reasons and explanations for 10 megavolts not to be true. Volgin saying it and therefore it must be true is bad logic. 2. I know he traded blows with Gray Fox, but it was implied that Gray...

    Metal Gear: Feats re-examined and tiers re-evaluated / Big Boss and Solid Snake

    1. I don't think the games have anything to say on him being crafted in the art of "electrical science". The explanation for his abilities is based on psychic manipulation moreso than anything biological or biomechanical. I think you need more proof that he would know how many volts are in a...

    Metal Gear: Feats re-examined and tiers re-evaluated / Big Boss and Solid Snake

    It's contradicted many times, as I said in my first post. I will give you an example rather than argue. Here we have Naked Snake vs Ocelot. Both are armed with handguns. Oh look at that, Snake puts a round into his head and you can visibly see blood spurt out. Ocelot keeps on keeping on. Cool...

    Metal Gear: Feats re-examined and tiers re-evaluated / Big Boss and Solid Snake

    1. Volgin? A scientific genius? Based on what? Politically gifted and knowledgeable about weapons design and physics absolutely, but scientific genius? That's a huge stretch. What has he done that makes him a scientific genius? And let's not quickly forget that IQ =/= expertise or knowledge in...

    Metal Gear: Feats re-examined and tiers re-evaluated / Big Boss and Solid Snake

    I mean... that IS what torture is and involves. (If you don't know the details of what happened, the relevant info is in the calc which is in the OP) Him telling Snake about the strength of electricity before he begins torturing him with it is a means of creating anticipation and is nothing out...

    Metal Gear: Feats re-examined and tiers re-evaluated / Big Boss and Solid Snake

    No, the game doesn't state it. An egotistical character in the game says it as a form of intimidation and psychological manipulation. Just because he said it doesn't mean the statement is a truth. Is this a new thing for you? Have you played the metal gear games? Just a question.

    Metal Gear: Feats re-examined and tiers re-evaluated / Big Boss and Solid Snake

    Yes, I agree that our calc that determines how much damage his electricity would do if it were using 10 megavolts. I don't think that he possesses the ability to use 10 megavolts based off our real world logic and reasoning - something that the Metal Gear series strives so often to recreate in...
