Terrorism

Terrorism is actually first mentioned in the MG1 manual. Removed original story ideas for MGS2 since they only concerned weapons development, and not terrorism.

Although the first three succeeded in hitting their targets, resulting in their total destruction and severe damage, respectively, Flight 93 (the plane that crashed in a field in Pennsylvania) had missed the target (believed to have been the Capitol Building) due to the efforts of the passengers. This eventually led to a counterattack called the War on Terror, which started with an invasion in Afghanistan under George Sears' authority, and eventually led to the War in Iraq.

One of these was the crash of [[Arsenal Gear]]. Similarly, a storyboard idea with Solid Snake investigating Metal Gear in the Middle East and re-encountering [[Liquid Snake]] on an aircraft carrier during the game's development was also cut because of rising tensions in the Middle East at the time, and the character Raiden's (Japanese) name was written in kanji instead of katakana like most of the other characters due to the katakana name somewhat resembling Laden, part of the name of al Qaida terrorist cell mastermind Osama bin Laden.

Similarly, the subsequent War on Terror was also given mentions in ''Metal Gear Rising''. In the climax of the game, one of the posts that Boris directs Raiden to, shortly after it was revealed that the Shabhazabad Air Base attack had its story leaked early, mentioned that Pakistan was part of the axis of evil, referring to an actual term made in 2002 by the real life (and then-current) president George W. Bush during his State of the Union address, referencing Iran, Iraq, and North Korea for either aiding terrorists or developing WMDs.

 The German cyberneticist Dr. [[Wilhelm Voigt]] intended to aid in creating a cyborg database via various left arms from cyborgs to aid in future development of cyborgs in terms of modifications, advances, and analyzing data for every conceiveable instance in cyborg-related combat, as cyborg warfare was still in its infancy. He had managed to collect at least 56 left hands and presumably upload their data by the time Raiden was dispatched to quell the [[Abkhazian Coup]] in 2018.<ref>The amount can be seen in the opening cutscene of Chapter R-01 on a shelf, with there being four shelves containing 14 cyborg left hands on each shelf.</ref> In addition, in exchange for his supplying Raiden with [[Raiden's second cyborg body|his new cyborg body]], he also requested that Raiden retrieve the left hands of any cyborgs that he encountered during his mission. He eventually gained left arms formerly belonging to 30 [[cyborg commander]]s from Raiden, and noted that they contained data relating to the Patriots, due to their earlier being experimented on by the Patriots just as Raiden himself had been.

 Armstrong believed on the notion that the "might is right." In this regard, he viewed those who were "strong" as the ones deserving of dictating the laws of society, and that the "weak" should be purged so as to create a perfect world. It is because of this mentality that he's able to hold great respect for Raiden despite his desire to kill him, as he viewed Raiden's experiences as evidence of his philosophy due to Raiden's upbringing as a child soldier and his eventual role as a fugitive that refuses to conform to society. At the end of their final battle, he likened himself to Raiden, claiming that they both live their lives in accordance to their own free will, even going so far as to claim that they were "kindred spirits" as well declaring Raiden as his successor.
-He was very arrogant and used excessive nanomachines in battle. His arrogance was evident when about to fight Raiden in his body, where he shouted "Man to man, I can't be beat! Come on!"

The effects caused by these nanomachines maade him virtually invulnerable to blunt force. The nanomachines act as self-repair units, but they also augment his strength, flowing through his body and can even be altered simply by his own will. The nanomachines also temporarily fuse with the skin and muscles to harden the flesh to its absolute limit, which causes the side-effect of turning his affected body parts black with some red near the edges, and also makes his heart and blood vessels stand out to an extreme. It also vastly improved his strength to the extent that he even would give a cyborg such as Raiden difficulty in fighting him, and personally stated that he could "break the President in two with [his] own bare hands" if he wished. He was able to fight Raiden bare-handed, easily tossing Raiden through the air, as well as destroying both Raiden's AR visor and HF Blade.

 Besides his nanomachines, he was also in supreme physical condition, which he attributes to playing several sports in college, most notably football. He also seems to harbor a similar energy-based/wire ability to [[Yevgeny Borisovitch Volgin|Volgin]], shown when he gathers all the wires while absorbing energy from the ruins of Excelsus to unleash his full power. Also his body was riddled with scars due to being infused with nanomachines, bearing a similar appearance to the scars seen on Volgin.

 Sundowner's choice of weapon, the pincer blades, was added into his character because director Kenji Saito was very fond of an old role-playing game where one character used a large one-handed scissor weapon, and also felt that it fit Sundowner's character. His character design was also based on a heavily armored samurai.

 When encountering Raiden, he commented that his group only acted as suppliers for war, as they did not create the environment that required their services before mockingly asking Raiden if every battle that ever happened was "all part of some [[The Philosophers|big ol']] [[The Patriots|conspiracy]]." He then stated that he liked [[child soldier]]s because kids could be molded into committing all sorts of atrocities, and that atrocities were effective fuels for wars. Sundowner displayed a sadistic streak, evidenced by his reaction to harming N'mani and his decapitation of one of N'mani's bodyguards as well as his claim to Raiden that he took pleasure in killing soldiers and laughs before he added "civilians" to that statement. Prior to fighting Raiden, Sundowner told him that he was "very well in touch" with his inner-child after relating to him that children can be crueler than any adult.
-During his fight with Raiden he had a shield to protect himself claiming that he was invincible and that Raiden cannot destroy his shield. Sometimes, he even tried to bait Raiden into making contact with his shield's explosive  reactive armor layering. Sundowner also had a penchant for fighting dirty, or desired the destruction of his opponents so much that he simply did not have any qualms against being provided with backup support from his subordinates. During his final fight with Raiden, he frequently had backup from the Hammerhead helicopters at all times while fighting Raiden, knocking down and swinging lamp posts at Raiden as part of "battlefield acquisition," and even ended up having one of the Hammerheads pick him up and fire missiles at the helipad just after Raiden knocked him off the ledge.

 Mistral, like Raiden, experienced civil war at a very young age and has been made into a cold killer as a result. Before she came to Desperado she felt she did not have a purpose other than to kill anything in her path. She said that she even envied her prey due to many of her enemies actually having had a cause to fight for. Around 2018, she had learned to cherish the notion of an individual possessing their own ideals, expressing her happiness upon learning to possess one of her own. The trauma of her service as a child soldier appears to have instilled in her a depraved sexual objectification of war; with seductive mannerisms and her pre-battle transformation containing the subtext of a seeming orgasm.

At its core, the character action gameplay is largely the same, though it has been simplified. Wolf’s movements aren't as fluid as Raiden or Sam’s, but his lack of a ninja run does allow for some proper, if basic, platforming. Sadly, Wolf’s moveset isn't nearly as robust as Raiden’s, and even Sam had more combos. Still, the simple gimmick of running around as a robot dog with a chainsaw hunting cyborgs may be enough to carry this $7 add-on.

In addition, the player has access to Bladewolf's signature heat knives, but these are mostly just thrown in as an afterthought because hey, the fans expected it. These knives have almost no utility in combat and only deal "superficial damage". Still, the simple gimmick of running around as a robot dog with a chainsaw hunting cyborgs may be enough to carry this $7 add-on.
 One thing that has changed is how the player approaches combat. Whereas the base game had stealth as an afterthought, it feels slightly more fleshed out and feasible and is far more enjoyable here than anywhere else in the game. The player is frequently put into situations that encourage them to go for a no clear status, and with some rote memorisation and a bit of trial and error, the player can naturally go from one enemy to another, feeling like a predator as they stealth kill each one. In fact, the stealth here almost reminds me of the original <em>Metal Gear Solid</em>, where simply staying out of the line of sight is the most important factor.

 In the aftermath, the official reason for the SOP system's discontinuation was because of the dangers of being hacked into, due to Liquid Ocelot's actions in Eastern Europe. The Patriots' ties to it being shut down was likewise covered up, as the majority of the population did not know about the Patriots' existence, even with the increased exposure as a result of their demise. Consequentially, some soldiers, including [[Desperado Enforcement LLC.|Desperado]] commander [[Sundowner]], were not too happy about SOP being shut down, because it consequentially also led to a "break" in the war economy, and felt that the economy was the only thing that actually gave "honest warmongers" such as themselves a livelihood. Another result of SOP shutting down was a recession in the American market, severe enough for normal people to have trouble finding a job. Cybernetic people such as Raiden had even more difficulty finding civilian jobs due to the artificial skin, being imperfect, still gave them away as not being human.
