It's beyond hilarious that the game tried to justify it as being due to the same photosynthesis enhancement that The End had in MGS3. Imagine that saggy old man running around dressed like Quiet.

Yeah, I know it's because the real Snake lit her on fire during the tutorial so her lungs are fucked and the photosynthesis has to do the lion's share of respiration, but that's such an obvious excuse to justify having a nearly naked supermodel as a companion. Especially since he lit her on fire yet her skin is somehow completely unscathed.

Yes, but what about Snake Plissken? Escape from New York (1981) is such a good action movie, and the literal inspiration for Solid Snake (1987, from the NES game "Metal Gear").
I still can't believe Hideo Kojima has been making games as long as I have been alive. That's just nuts!
I think it pretty accurately hits the vibe of government secret projects in that it simultaneously sounds harmless and a little silly, while also being vague and unusual enough to have a certain foreboding to it. E.g "the gadget"
It's shit like this one minute and then bawling your eyes out over Sniper Wolf talking growing up as an orphan during the second Iraqi-Kurdish war the next

Liquid Snake is a character in Metal Gear Solid. He's Solid Snake's twin brother and one of the antagonists in the series.

I thought one of them needed to breath through her skin or something and that's why she didn't wear pants?
Maybe I should play some of these games.
