I believe I remember Naomi talking about this subject when Snake meets her at the mansion (or whatever it was). When they created all the clone Snakes, they f****ed up their genes in a way to make them grow old very fast, because they didn't want the Snakes running around for too long. By shortening their lifespans, they wouldn't live long enough to ever pose a real threat if they went rogue.

At least, that's what I remember from the conversation...

You're right. I remember that part.

Ok so then why put Fox Die in him then? Isn't that also to keep him from staying around too long? It seems like a redundancy which to me means a story that wasn't well thought out.

 

I don't know, even after playing the games and watching them numerous times on Youtube, I'm still extremely confused about certain things, Fox Die being the main one. In the first game it was used to secretely infect and kill the others around him (who were succeptable to it) right? Beyond that, I have no idea what it's true purpose was. It seemed like the purpose of it switched every goddamn 5 minutes. :P

 

I'd really love to read a well organized text explaining the entire MGS story with all the characters and details of events and technologies.

I remember it killed Decoy Octopus early on when he was disguised as the DARPA Chief and locked in the same cell as Snake. It killed Liquid at the end of the game. I don't know if it was in Ocelot, probably not since he was a Patriot but who knows, and everyone else was killed by Snake so we don't know about them. Still I thought Naomi said the Fox Die would kill Snake eventually and it was merely a matter of time. However I don't remember her saying anything in MGS4 to back that up or clear it up at all. Wasn't Snake supposed to be dead within a few months of MGS1 ending? I could have sworn she said that in the game, but who knows at this point.
