I do ironically love Raiden's new design. Like you said, it has so many cool elements that it goes back to being funny. Especially the eye patch. Like he has so many high tech parts on him, but I guess his team ran out of budget and just gave him a $10 cloth to cover his eye

It's from his design when the game was set to take place in-between MGS2 and MGS4. I guess they just kept it because the original MGS: Rising was scrapped and the whole project rebooted from scratch, with MGR having about 2 years of development. Hilariously, the codecs reveal that Raiden can see with the eyepatch as if it's a real eye.

Metal Gear series (1-3) have always had absurd over-the-top plots that somehow work like a cohesive story with a decent depth to it. But they were not as goofy as Rising.

Meaning I got no health as you would normally. Had to do a no damage run to best him. Played like two hours daily for two weeks, stepped away for a month, try again, until months later I finally did it. No idea what happens after you beat him. I was in a euphoric coma.

My controller wasn't working for this game, so I ended up using my keyboard and mouse, and I feel that it made it a little easier to find out how to parry attacks. You didn't really have to move anything around, but rather press W, A, S, or D depending on where the attack came from. This made it a lot easier to figure out how to parry/block consecutive attacks during the Monsoon fight. Later on I started playing on the controller and I didn't have any trouble with the parrying mechanic because I already found out how to work out the parries, although I could understand how it could be tedious finding out how to do this on controller without prior knowledge

Regardless still amazing games with 2 being my favourite and stars raiden as an origin story and is also all about memes and society so revengence feels like a continuation of it
