if quiet only carried the english strain why couldnt she just learn another language and let someone translate it for big boss-kun?
>>
She could have very easily had Codetalker translate Navajo. I have no fucking idea why she didn't.

It's also clearly shown that a few words here and there aren't going to activate the strain. She could have just told Pequod "GET CODETALKER" then spoke to him over the radio.

Pequod is so fucking retarded. He just kept asking and asking for directions, when he was right next to us. He could use some fucking thermal goggles I had them develop on my base or something. But nooo.

She does try to communicate in Navajo first but Pequad ask her to talk in English and was going away.

Though I agree the scene was bad since it was merely a way to move the plot forward.

I think it had to do with her internal conflict of killing Bic Boss or 'falling in love with the legend' as Ocelot put it.

No, not at all.
>>
>>321400709
>Apparently people die if they speak the language the parasite is assigned to by feeding from their lungs, Quiets lungs are burnt to a crispy finish
Its more that she doesn't want to encourage their COPULATION and risk spreading it.
>>
>>321400709
It is strange when the demo to a game (Ground Zeroes) is better than the game itself.
>>
>>321399083
Double stupid since
A) Skullface himself says "a few words here and there" won't activate shit
B) Venom seems to only know a few languages, the only reason you can understand other languages is because you get ONE really good translator that does ON THE FLY translations. Codetalker should be available for five fucking minutes to translate Quiet.
C) Even if no english, couldn't she have communicated in morse code? Movies have taught me all military people know morse code. She could just click the radio button to spell morse code to get codetalker, pretty sure I saw that in a movie once.

I refuse to believe that Pequod does not have the same radio abilities as the player
>>
>>321400808
But if she shuts the fuck up after talking it wouldn't matter right, it only spreads by talking.

Fuck it HAMBURGERS
>>
>>321400938
Its spread by fluids. That means no kissing Venom Snake and basically spending the rest of her life in exile.
>>
Did you even play the game? Quiet remained quiet not just because talking in English would release the parasites. She still kind of wanted revenge and so wanted to keep her trump card away. If she cooperated and communicated, she would end up having to say the truth about the parasites she's carrying.
>>
What I never understood was, didn't Codetalker explicitly say that you CAN physically cut the parasites out if they're not COPULATING? Why didn't Quiet just get the parasites surgically removed? Hell, just cut them out herself since she's apparently immortal and she breathes through her fucking skin.

>but that would be painful

Oh so getting burned alive/tortured by Ocelot/tortured by Soviets/SWIMMING IN A VAT OF BURNING CHLORINE is totally fine?
>>
>>321400563
I think that the point is that Quiet knew that Venom wasn't BB. That would explain her reasons to refuse the Wolbachia treatment and her growing affection for Venom's dick.

The whole thing is that the game mechanics on their own are solid and it's an incredibly fun game to play. The story however is so filled with holes and unfinished that it brings down MGS V as a whole.
>>
>>321401048
I feel like that explanation falls apart after she talks to Codetalker and is like "I will super never ever speak english" so at that point she doesn't seem to want revenge or to ever activate the parasites.

>A few words here and there won't do anything

So what, is Quiet just out in the desert realizing how bad she fucked up but can't go back to Venom because then she's look stupid or something?
>>
>>321401093
Aren't her parasites also giving her powers and basically keeping her alive? BB did ended up burning Quiet's regular body down to crisp.

If she wanted revenge why didn't she just blow his head off out in the field, crash the ACC, slit his throat, not follow orders so he'd die, set him on fire, blow him up with some of those grenades of hers, beat him up with her godlike powers and all other ways you could possibly kill a man.
>>
>>321401594
She fell in love with the legend. Also, Venom proved she couldn't beat him.
>>
>>321401594
bad writing?
>>
>>321401487
The problem is what people think the limit of "a few words here and there" means. The cutscenes went out of their way to show Quiet talking more than just a few sentences, she ended up giving specific instructions for quite a while, that was to prove a point that her talking was more than just a "few words here and there".

Now the problem is why she didn't try any other methods before, since it is obvious she didn't want Venom to know that she was carrying the English parasite inside her and that she still wanted revenge against BB for fuck her up so badly. What would be interesting to know is that if Quiet knew or didn't knew if Venom wasn't BB. That would explain a lot of Quiet's motivations and interactions during the game with the player.

Reminder that her whole character arc and motivation is fueled by lust for Big Boss / Venom's dick and that she has zero story relevance, hence why you can skip her altogether. She only exists as Kojima's shitty waifu and a feelbait character with her contrived ending.

>>321401809
How could she sense Pequod anyways? What the fuck can't she do with those goddamn parasites.
>>
>>321401809
I can't imagine any way she could know. She didn't know when she went to kill the wrong person the first time, and the very person sending her to do it never found out. There's really no reason for her to know or any way for her to even find out.
>>
>>321401930
It is explained in the game that Quiet has outstanding vision and depth perception. She was basically seeing Pequod with her bare eyes and giving him instructions to reach them because she was able to see pequod in the middle of the storm.
>>
>>321399153
Also Venom doesn't speak much because Kiefer's expensive, I wish people could see and admit simple things like this.
>>
>>321402095
he talks a lot in the tapes moron
>>
>>321402062
That still doesn't explain being able to see through a sandstorm.
>>
>>321402174
Barely. Most of the tapes are either Miller, Ocelot, Skull Face, Code Talker or even Zero and Paz. Venom barely talks in the entire game, that includes cutscenes and tapes.

Guys...

How does Venom talk in some afrikan language to Eli?

Never got to me, still the fucking cutscene is pretty clear.
>>
>>321398993
How hard it is for people to realize that she was just pretending not to be able to speak or write?
Did you notice that the other skull units never speak because their mind were taken over by the parasites?
She was just pretending to be the same.
If she let anyone know that she is able to speak any language, they would surely question her, or be suspicious that her job was to spread parasites in Motherbase.
>>
>>321402457
From what i've read Venom can only talk to Eli if you've extracted the afrikan interpreter. That could be bullshit though.
>>
>>321402720
>She was just pretending to be the same.

Which is why she lit my cigar on my birthday and played splashy in the rain.
>>
>>321403012
huh? That doesn't make her a genius.
Also the cigar scene isnt canon, and playing in the rain is how the parasites "refresh" themselves.

Okay, calling it true for a second.
Looks like he knows the language, as he speaks it more or less fluently... never seen a cutscene where he learns it.

My theory is that she knew he's not the real boss and she was supposed to earn your trust to get to the real one but apparently chapter 3 was cut and they made some shitty love story out of it adding the cringe dance in the rain scene and her random disappearance. I really believe the actual ingame story would make much more sense if this game was fucking finished
>>
>>321405008
Then it's speculation, not game.
>>
>>321404761
The plot twist pretty much explains why we have a 'silent protagonist'. I don't like it, but the explanation is there.
>>
>>321405121
Maybe Kiefer was hired before the scenario was written, so it was written accordingly.

Would you mind giving me the explanation ? Time has passed and the disappointment caused by the game has me not being able to wrap my head around every aspects of the story anymore.
>>
>>321406079
VA work is done all over the development.
Kiefer said that he worked on it up until early 2015.
Hell, Fallout 4 VA's said that they spent almost 3 years recording.
>>
>>321406079
Not the guy you asked but:
Venom undergoes hypnotic suggestion during coma and is a completely different person from BB. Fact is we don't know for sure why he doesn't talk much but we can fairly assume that he does that because he's simply like that.
Otherwise we can say that's the Big Boss meme has been passed is different from the real him

Because Kaz would have her tortured every day until he gets what he wants to hear from her.

Keeping up the mute facade prevents this because torturing a mute is pointless, they don't speak.

Venom already knows who she is though from the hospital, she doesn't have to pretend around him.

Diamond dogs don't attack the Soviets en masse because that would put a private military on the Soviet's hit list. No one should know about Outer Heaven. The Soviets think they're fighting an assassin and an old lunatic in the desert, not a private military.
