Every time he takes damage it adds a zero, from 1% to 0.1% 0.01% to 0.001% I mean at a certain point he would just be a puddle of mostly electronic soup with vague resemblances of conscience, but hey, he's still there
You know there's a reason why he's called Armstrong, and not Armsstrong. Only his right hand can deal damage, the other is just for grabbing onto things. You know why.
Metal Gear as a whole has a fictitious and fantastical understanding of technology. By the time of Metal Gear Solid 4, Nanomachines were basically Medichlorians from Star Wars.
I like how he activates something called 'pain inhibitors' as if being in pain is the only consequence to getting repreatedly crushed by thousands of punches, and not the literal material disintegration his body would undergo
As blue motivated man once said: "That day, if our positions were switched... Would our fates be different? Would I have your life, and you mine? Let's settle this..."
i mean, raiden and vergil are both u know, storms, raiden with the whole "i am lightning the rain transformed" and vergil being the bloody storm that is approaching, yeahh
"Was a soldier you know" "Mowing fields and doing guard duty!" "Try being an infrantry soldier in Africa. Would have stood trial for countless war crimes if I wasn't a child. I'm not like those FOXHOUND pansies! I COULD BREAK BIG BOSS HIMSELF, WITH MY BARE HANDS! Don't f*ck with this cyborg"
Raiden could probably take Big Boss with his bare hands because he has killed Solidus who is literally Big Boss with an exoskeletton which can dodge/stop bullets and give super strength. (And also give T H I C C legs and arms).
You know, I really love this, cause when you think about it this PERFECTLY fits the song as if it's the other side of the coin that it's been waiting for for the meaning to be truly complete. "...I realize you're just like me trying to make history~"
Aside from his broken sword, lost his -face shield- AHEM! AR Visor (thank you for the correct term), a scratched chin and his ideals being tampered with, at the end he's relatively fine, it's quite surprising how more durable people are compared to how strong they are.
Raiden seems to be having a lot of fun and EVEN PLEASURE from that pain. Now I see why all other characters describe him as a weird and creepy freak. That's a real BDSM moment here.
@@user-jb9nz2fs2u kids reading about the butterfly effect for the first time and thinking something like putting the trash bag out can result in thermonuclear war in the next hundred years. No. No it won't.
This reminds me of the fact that raiden played the ENTIRE rest of the game, after the monsoon fight, WITHOUT PAIN INHIBITORS. HE FELT EVERY PART OF THAT EXELSUS EXPLODING PUNCH. ALL OF IT. the chokeslams, the sam fight, the getting slashed to shreds by sundowner, all of it.
I carved my own path You followed your wrath, But maybe we're both *the same* . *THE WORLD* now has turned, So many is burned But nobody is to blame...
Bro the detail of raiden trying to turn on pain inhibitors before getting punched but then still becoming Jack the Ripper, that’s what the discord noise was and then you hear jack saying more because he’s pretty much a masochist.
Armstrong: Die... Die!..... WHY WON'T YOU DIE?!!! Raiden: Pain Inhibitors grandpa, they nullify the effects of physical trauma. Also Raiden: More!.. MORE!!! **laughs*
I mean, the song applies to both characters equally and the fight is pretty equal, so this makes sense. Especially as its raiden singing the song, not armstrong
