From the gameplay, the characters, the story, the pacing and especially the music, all of them just hit the mark for me. This is one of the few games I would genuinely put at a 10/10. I think Metal Gear Rising is simply a once in a generation masterpiece, and I mean this from the bottom of my heart. I haven't seen any other game that can introduce a final boss in the last 30 minutes of the game, yet they made his dialogue and personality so iconic, making him one of the most memorable bosses in gaming.

Memes aside I’m glad MGR has had a resurgence in popularity, it’s always been viewed highly among hack n slash fans but not so much by general gaming fans.

@Upcycle Shoes a lot of people, even longtime players, don't seem to know there's an easy way to be precise with blade mode. when you're angling your attack with the right stick, you can press one of the attack buttons to cut along that exact angle without snapping the stick back into place and screwing up the index. if you wanna do it more than once along the same axis though, you have to wait until the animation finishes. when I realized this, it made using blade mode so much more simple

@stupidflandrs4856 2 года назад

Awesome to see the end credits song getting some love. Easily one of the more thematically powerful songs in the game, especially since it covers Raiden's situation after everything's done (and how it went unaddressed since we never got a sequel). It sticks with me a lot even though you can't associate it with a cool gameplay moment like all the other songs.

@nepspartan-7597 2 года назад

One of the kickers about zandatsu is that you're not slowing down time. From the point of view of the surrounding enemies, your arms and sword turned into a blurry blending machine and it's just slow from Raiden's pov Also Saucy Jack was a nickname given to what was considered a copycat Jack the Ripper, so Armstrong saying that could be a jab at "You're not the real Jack the Ripper. Give him to me."

@illuminose6494 2 года назад

I love this game so much, unironically for its edgy moments and all. The music, the gameplay, the story. It's great. Also I love the subtle Halo metaphors you use. But my favorite part of this video is the fact someone *finally* acknowledges the meaning behind Monsoon's "Memes" speech. Everyone just looks at it on the surface level and don't read into the original meaning behind the word. Can't wait for the next branch out video, given the strange limbo Halo is in at the moment.

@GTD_Galatea 2 года назад

One thing I would like to add is that the song lyrics reveal some extra details about the bosses and their motivations. Let's take a look Mistral's song (A Stranger I Remain) for example. The song is about how once she was lost, but then she finally found a true purpose for her life. The purpose in this case is her newfound love for a special someone which, in turn, gives meaning to the conflict she's fighting (It's heavily implied that Armstrong is the one she loves). Jetstream Sam's song lyrics (The Only Thing I Know for Real) highlight his own internal conflict about fighting Raiden. He purposefuly let go of who he was, but at the same time, he ashamed of the things he's doing. Yet, he keeps doing it because he can't imagine himself doing anything else.

Never would I have thought the halo guy would make a video about MGR, but I’m glad he did. As for the codec calls that bring you to a standstill, they’re there to cover up the loading of the next section. It loads after the first few lines, but it’s there to make the loading seem less and to add some extra narrative there. It’s annoying for running through again, but it is skippable.

The war still rages within is one of my favourite tracks for sure but all of them are amazing

I still wonder what's the reaction from MGR devs when they realized their game gets more popular 9 years later 😂 Metal Gear Rising might not the best, but it satisfy everything almost we all looking for, badass music, badass gameplay, interesting and cheesy characters, story and politics that ring true to this day.

Popular 9 years later? My dude, it's been popular since it came out

Keep it up Xperia! These non-Halo videos are a lovely detour from your normal broadcasting schedule!

no other main villains has ever scored a field goal with me, pushed up his glasses, and had a phantom crowd cheer him on. that says something.

i mean can you blame him? The state of the tv show+ the failed(?) potential of infinite vs the most hype game of possibly all time. We know what's going to win.

Its amazing to see one of my favourite gaming channels talking about Halo AND Metal Gear Solid.... me two FAVOURITE game franchises of all time

@meatkiwi363 2 года назад

I agree with how you see this game, and I loved every second of it regardless. I really hope you keep these other videos coming, content is delicious

@maplemori3138 2 года назад

Didn't expect you to talk about a Metal Gear game, but this is a very welcome surprise.

@slickcalf985 2 года назад

Lyrics of the MGR music actually have a meaning. And I was about to explain them all, but I think it's better to figure them out for yourself.

youve made me want to buy this game, great video!

this game introduced its main antagonist in the last 30 minutes of the game and he became one of the most iconic and recognizable characters ever.

Armstrong was introduced in chapter 2 but ok

Earlier this year I decided to track down an old 360 copy of Rising for my Series X. I will fully admit that it was tHe MeMeS that piqued my interest. I was having fun enough going through it, but then I got to Mistral's fight and paid a bit more attention to her song. It sounded like it was actually being sung from her point of view. After I beat her, I looked up a lyrics video to her song and was floored. It really _was_ from her point of view. Then I looked up Blade Wolf's song and it was _also_ from his point of view. That was when I realized I was playing something truly special. I have _never_ played a game where all the songs in a soundtrack actually tell the views and backstories of the bosses. It's such a unique way to expand the story. I've replayed the game once so far, but I've listened to the OST so many times now that I have almost every song memorized. Collective Consciousness is such a scarily relevant song, but I would expect nothing less of a Metal Gear game. Gives me chills every time I listen to it.

Glad your branching out more from Halo man. I know you've dabbled with like Dead Space and Resident Evil. I've always enjoyed these videos, especially with something like MGR. It's an incredibly fun, anime style fighting game. And the soundtrack is stellar. Seriously, the music of this is one of the best examples of how a musical score can just elevate a game. Good stuff bro.

MGR is so cool man, Really love seeing it get so much love around RU-vid these days. Also, I really am enjoying your non-Halo content it's very good.

"Why _____ deserves to be iconic" Sounds like a series I'd tune in for. Apparently I never gave this game nearly enough of a chance.

@busterdougles 2 года назад

Thank you HiddenX for making this video and for branching out from halo videos. Keep up the positive work bro!

Head canon: while the orchestrated score of the game is an overlay, the soundtrack (the rock music) is diegetic; it's a playlist running on Raiden's internal sound system.

We can’t forget the Desperado coating for Raider’s body you unlock after you beat Sundowner. Red and black is one of my favorite color combos, and it looks sick as hell. The other body variations are great too, but you have to spend money on those.
