>Implying it wasn't peace

literally everything the Boss has ever wanted since seeing the world from space is peace. Everything in the entire series is the result of people being too obsessed with war to see that.

Big Boss thinks Boss wanted a world where soldiers could have a place.

Zero thought she wanted a world unified (which is sort of correct, except he went about it in a terrible way).

Solid comes closest to the Boss' will because all he wants to do is stop the fighting.

>explains she defected since the US treated her like shit and the USSR had money
>plans to use that money along with the Cobras to heal the world and untie the East and West as the one world she saw from space

Wow, that's pretty noble. She wants to save the world by any means.

>EVA's tape
>Nah, she was just pretending to steal some money lol
>she had to die so that nuke she was blamed for firing wouldn't start WWIII
>The US had you kill her and get the money to save face

I mean, I know Big Boss needed a reason to hate the US, but The Boss defecting of her own will was a lot better than just acting. Also, before EVA is explaining all that about the ruse, the reel blows up. Did Snake never hear any of that? He spends all of PO asking about what happened to her and in PW he is shocked when he learned she let herself die.

That's one of the big debates we'll never get the answer to, friendo.

Some people say he did hear the tape and convinced himself otherwise in PW, or, like you said, he just didn't hear the tape. The world will never know

Anyone ever see what they wanted for the original Boss fight? It was fucked up.

>"Kojima originally wanted the final fight with the boss to be a QTE Sex scene in which Snake was going to have to have intercourse with her ending in cunnilingus (in reference to the name Snake Eater ("Snake eat her") to finally make her feel "joy" again (Her codename before The Boss). If done correctly she would be in a state of ecstasy and ask for Snake to kill her as she wants to die with this Joy. When he addressed this to his team, they all instantly rejected it as they deemed it too inappropriate for today's audience and instead opted for a boss fight."

A world without boarders, a world without control, a world of peace and understanding.

Both people took her will in the wrong direction.

Zero would make a world without boarders, but as a secret power underneath. A power that would subtly control everything, to influence peoples wills. And then later the Patriots would then use war as a means of gaining more control, power, and money.

Big Boss took her will as a soldier. He created an army without boarders. He would at first fight any war regardless of nation, as soldiers of no nation. He would later purposely create wars, to give his and other soldiers purpose, as to not discard them.

Zero would seek control, and Big Boss would seek chaos.

She only wanted people to realize how foolish these human desires were, how pointless war is. As she said when she went to space, everything changed for her, and she realized how insignificant all the bull shit on earth really was in the grand scheme of things.

Otacon and Solid Snake would ultimately somewhat succeed in carrying her will. They freed the world of Zeros control, and defeated Big Boss' and his legacy reign of Chaos. They brought peace to the world, and would allow the world a chance at a better future.

The Boss's will: Complete edition:

>Understand that there is no such thing as a timeless enemy
>The only timeless cause is to save the human race from obliterating itself
>Having loyalty to that end is all that matters. It is your true mission as a soldier.
>Other than that, let the world be.

That's it. None of the "no borders" bullshit. She never says that. That was all Zero and Big Boss's misinterpretation.

Solid Snake is the only one who understood the Boss's will, which was displayed on his insignia in the Philantrophy squad he and Ocelot crated: "Let the world be.".

>I'm sure you can see that. But the Earth itself has no boundaries. No East, no West, no Cold War. In the 21st century everyone will be able to see that we are all just inhabitants of a little celestial body called Earth. A world without communism or capitalism... that is the world I wanted to see.

>Enemies change along with the times, and the flow of the ages. And we soldiers are forced to play along... I didn't raise you and shape you into the man you are today just so we could face each other in battle. A soldier's skills aren't meant to be used to hurt friends. So then what is an enemy? Is there such thing as an absolute timeless enemy? There is no such thing and never has been. And the reason is that our enemies are human beings like us. They can only be our enemies in relative terms. The world must be made whole again.

Basically Boss wants a future without conflict and strife. No nations no conflicting governments and the like. Zero want to achieve this by subtle control. Big Boss interprets this as go do stuff without anyone telling you what to do.

You are correct, but she did want a world without borders, but not in the way Zero and BB thought. She would want there to be countries, but not ones that would try and take over and control others through wars, it's exactly what the US, China, and Russia was doing at the time. As you say, she basically would want the world to be, but in spirit, in will, the people would be united regardless of nation, to rise up and protect the world from evil. So there was a world without borders in her mind, by like a mental sort of way, not a physical actual borders. Because as long as there is physical borders, as long as there is evil individuals who seek control and power, the world would not be whole.

>>342962883
And this. As she says the pointless wars between soldiers are just relative to the times, relative to the nations and ideologies that wage them. If those did not exist, soldiers would not be waging pointless wars, the world would be as one, yet individual.

Well, one centralized government with a centralized defense force, that will almost always be used in an abusive manner at some point, or no central government, with the free market determining how everything plays out, which will also almost assuredly lead to the exploitation of at least one portion of society.

It's funny, because I spend a lot of time on /co/ and anytime you have aliens come to Earth in the comics, it is a trope for Earth to be criticized for being a backwater ball of mud with monkeys who still haven't unified their countries into a single unified government, but when you really stop and think about it, borders and geographical/governmental/cultural segmentation does serve as a check and balance of it's own.

He really did get so caught up on how the US treated the Boss that it really was only about preserving soldiers so they wouldn't be used and abused then tossed aside by their governments, didn't he? Until Zero started acting on his interpretation of the Boss's will, then it became about stopping Zero, right?

It's been used a billion times because it's true. Look at the end of MGS 3, one of the high points of video game story-telling and then look at what came after, MGS 4, easily the biggest nosedive in storytelling quality and the worst closure to a video game narrative in history (not to mention it's barely a game on top of it)

I don't know if it's because of that writer that left in between MGS 3 and MGS 4. I don't know if it's some other member of the staff. I don't know if Kojima just had an accident and lost his writing abilities. It's irrelevant. He's a hack now.
