Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance is literally one of the best games I’ve ever played and it’s entire basis is politics.
Armstrong was screaming Make America Great Again about three years too early.
I’ve always wanted to play it, but I never have. Same for all of the metal gear games, lol.
If only I could play them on PS5 :(
Rising is very very different to any other MGS game. Fair warning. I recommend every MGS game wholeheartedly, but don’t play Rising and then pick up Snake Eater or MGSV expecting it to be more of the same.
It’s the only one I’ve played, I’m waiting for the Metal Gear collection to go on sale on Steam
I guarantee you that’s where Turnip’s team got the slogan. Some unpaid internet played the game and mentioned it as Orange was walking by.
It originated from Reagan who took it from Thatcher, with Reagan not getting the “Make Britan Great Again” pun works because Great Britain is the name of the English portion of the UK
And is another fucking case where people who played it rooted for the villain, and missed the point.
I yearn for the day where I meet someone who tries to justify the actions of possibly the single most cartoonishly evil villain in entertainment history.
Maybe second only to the original Thanos, who wiped out half of all life in the universe not to bring balance, but because he was horny.
It’s sad that Comic Thanos had a motivation that actually made more sense than “Somehow killing everyone will create utopia, even though I literally don’t give a shit, have plenty of evidence this doesn’t work, and ultimately just wanna fuck off and live in a cabin somewhere.”
