Now I am imagining that is what he is doing off-screen all the time.
I mean that’s just it though. He also has some sort of mech, clearly, a small psychic child and said child’s possibly imaginary fire friend.
The wizard soldiers are…honestly not even the second most impressive thing he has going for him. And yet despite this Skullface is so…an incredibly down to earth villain it seems, pontificating and skull face aside.
Just a regular skull-faced dude in a regular skull-faced life. Yep.
I do like the contrast between the very MGSy, outlandish absurdity of Skullface and Wizard Corps and how Skullface actually behaves. He’s a rather relatable villain in a series that also has Revolver Ocelot in it.
I think if we’ve discovered anything it’s that Skullface needs to learn to have fun and appreciate what he’s got.
I was surprised to look up Skull Face’s voice actor and learn that he’s actually a soap opera guy.
Hamminess? In my METAL GEAR?!
So… the basic premise of Skull Face seems to be “what if Tim Burton cast Lee can Cleef as the Joker instead of Jack Nicholson”, yeah?
Well, he hasn’t danced to a Prince number yet…
I just found out there’s been an official timeline current up to Peace Walker (so no spoilers for this game thankfully)
Apparently Big Boss is 49 in 1984.
I could see him being around 50 by MGSV
Knowing Kojima, Big Boss’s birthday is probably Christmas or something.
// Wait, no he probably would’ve mentioned that in the Santa codec call with Para-Medic
Not after they made fun of him. Or was Huey the one who mocked him?
I think Para-Medic made fun of him for being scared of vampires. Not sure if she also roasted him for believing in Santa.
You’re right, it was Huey.
I also just realized I never beat Po-Ops. I think I quit after the fight with either Null or the Hellraiser / Mr Freeze guy.
I know why Miller is growing all that corn.

He’s to angry to do something fun like grow chips though, he’s probably making something boring and functional, like biodegradable cardboard boxes that won’t leave a trace during missions.
You know Miller’s tortilla chips would be the fecking Toblerone of the salty snack world: overpriced, painful to eat, and made with extra salt.
Miller’s the kind of guy to brand his chips regular but actually put sea salt on them.
But he can feed the troops with chips and other corn products.
sea salt chips is just smart logistics, they’re on the ocean already
