I honestly don't care. MGS 2 barely had an impact for me, becuase I played it several years after it released. It would be interesting to see it from another perspective. |
But a different thing is that you didn't grasp it. Doesn't matter how many years you played the game after its released (outside of the initial highlight of information manipulation which happened precisely because everyone expected to play as Snake, and the media release and the cover goes as far as to hide that fact from you), the whole point of the game is both a deconstruction from the videogame design scheme, and the fact that you perceive Solid Snake - the hero of Shadow Mosses - from the eyes of an admirer - Raiden, and by proxy, yourself -, making you realize how much Snake has progressed over all these years (Since Snake in MGS2 is superior to Raiden in almost every single sense).
