Metal Gear Solid/Heartwarming

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


  • Either ending. in the "good" ending where Meryl lives, Snake realizes he should live for the sake of others - specifically Meryl. He also reveals his real name, David, to Meryl. The "bad" ending is almost identical, except Meryl is replaced with Otacon.
  • The last scene in Metal Gear Solid (the bad ending, granted) when Snake and Otacon call each other by their real names for the first time. Aww...
    • Not only that, but they ride off together into the Sunset.
  • To say Psycho Mantis is a sick fuck is a massive understatement...and yet, I couldn't help but find his death scene poignant, especially with his revealed backstory. "This is the first time I've used my powers...to help someone...strange...it feels kind of...nice..."
    • Also, Snake's talk with Sniper Wolf before giving her a Mercy Kill, assuring her that she's no dog of war, but a proud wolf.
