there's a situation with its narrative. it takes after the peacewalker gameplay mechanics. Not that it's bad, but pw was for a portable console, MGSV was for a home console, which seemed to make a huge deal between the way the game is laid put to be played and the cut scenes enter the game. I think it'd deserve more proper time for it to be fully completed, just finish your work, the fans (like me) would be gratefully appreciative of the effort.

Donald Anderson. How about we just let the series rest in piece and accept that it ended at MGS4. Of course Konami seems to like the idea of bleeding it to death slowly. Metal Gear will be forever tainted because now Konami is going to keep shitting out 'Metal Gear' games like Metal Gear Survive. Just you wait in another five years Metal Gear will be putting COD to shame with its cash grab bullshit. MGSV was only the tip of the spear they are now using to ram up the cash cows ass. It effectively divided the fan base with half of it not like the game because it was too different and the other half thinking it was the second coming of Jesus. Now, like the bastards they are. Konami is going to annually shit out Metal Gear games, each one worse then the last. But they know people will buy it because it has a triple A title. The Legend of the original games, the greatness of its story. Will be forgotten because the stink and smell from the new games will effectively destroy the image of the older ones.

You can say what you want, but essentially MGSV and it's development was heavily controlled, hindered and possibly ruined by the conflict between Kojima and Konami. Yes, maybe Kojima would have needed more time, but I do believe that with all the material we have, from concept art over the audio logs that often seemed like some of them were supposed to be cutscenes over Chapter 3 and mission 51 point to the fact that Kojima and his team had to make HUGE sacrifices in script, recordings and overall development to even get the game out in the way and timeframe Konami wanted. Looking at all the other Metal Gear games, hell even MGS4 which was heavily criticized but still a great work of art or PW which had great gameplay but a little bit of a weak story, even looking at those, and subsequently looking at Konamis actions AFTER the release of MGSV and after Kojima left (closing studios, Pachinko, etc, etc, etc) it is blatantly clear that even if MGSV wouldn't have been a perfect game, it could have been MUCH MUCH better if Konami would not have been the publisher and if Kojima (AND HIS TEAM) would have had their way.

Smith Bob Boss gets reports from Miller about a raging "demon" in the muddy forests of Afghanistan. None of the natives have seen him personally, only heard screams come day after day from the depths of the forest. After following a trail of corpses and gore, curiously of XOF soldiers, Snake finds the source of the screams: A makeshift hut, crude, rusted, and stained deep crimson. Upon entering the hut, we come across Chico, flaying a captured XOF soldier's skin from his body, the blade of the nicked, gruesome weapon burned with the explosion, remembered all too well. Then he turns around after the screaming and the gurgling stops, and flashes you that maddened, tragic smile as you can ever so slightly hear her favorite song emanating from the headphones. Oh, what could have been.

@@nutball3756 Now let me imagine a boss fight: Chico gives Ahab clues as to his location (the old devil's house), his reason unknown. Big Boss investigates this trail, only to lead to a supposed dead end. Suddenly, the noise of a blade being sharpened is faintly heard from the distance. Snake prepares for combat and follows the noise of the blade. The crying of a familiar voice reaches your ears as he gets close. You hear him say "I'm should be dead" again and again. You move the curtains aside and aim the gun at the mysterious stranger. The man seems to be listening to audio, as a Walkman can be seen on his waist. He slowly takes off one of the earbuds, and chuckles. "You don't remember me, Snake?" "Are you blind enough to not see that you and him weren't the only demons born on that faithful night." "You feel into a coma, but I was still wide awake. I felt the agony of that explosion, the price of my sins. I couldn't even defend her from that man. I was taken after you were found,but not by Cipher. Those nine years I was reminded of what I've done, by parasites, in my mind, and in my body. When you killed him, I was free his prison but not freed from my own She didn't leave you all to die, Snake." You come to realize that this man is no other than Chico, and that he had be the true cause for the XOF's victory on Mother Base on 1975. He hides his blade inside it's sheath, and pulls out a lighter from his pouch. "You and I, are hellbound... ...but question is: Which one of us is the greater monster?" Chico drops the lighter and a blaze consumes the devil's house once more, you attempt to reason with the Devil of Peace. "You were a kid, Chico. You didn't kill Paz on the chopper, I did." Chico then soon reaches an epiphany, and remembers the other man on the helicopter. "A demon forged from another man..." "One of us will die in here, and the other will suffer." You have no other choice but to face off against the broken man. Attacking with a combination of attacks from the Mares Leg you used to make Skull Face suffer, CQC, axe, knife, hook and machete. The battle escalates until the ceiling collapses and now the battle ends in a stealth square off. You use the cover around to crawl and run out of Chico's sight as you attempt to sedate or eliminate him. Finally you grab ahold of his machete and impale him in the heart. Without a word, he gives you his pouch full of cassete tapes and faintly says his final words. "Hellbound, you... And I...." You grab one of the cassete and play it, and a song begins to play. As you hear the song, the reflection of your demon appears, but you walk away from the wreckage of the devil's house, and return to mother base. "Here's to you Nicola and Bart Rest forever hear in our hearts. The last and final moment is yours That agony is your triumph."

And what if Kojima never actually meant to kill Chico ? What if the tape with Miller saying that he died was... false ? You know, everyone thought that Volgin was dead too, but when they saw first trailer of The Phantom Pain, they weren't sure anymore. So, while everyone, including his sister, beliefs that he died, he might still be out there ? I mean, we will never know, because... Well, that all fiasco happened, and we don't know shit (politic in a nutshell). Some of people may say that this is Kojima's fault, some of people says that this is Konami fault, but we will never know. Kojima can't say a shit, because he signed up confidentiality clause, and Konami is like a politician - they'll be saying that what makes them looks better, but in fact - it don't. BTW - leaving him alive... I really doubt if he would like to become a buddy after what he did to Vic Boss and MSF. If Venom would had to kill him due to self protection or something like that, I wouldn't be surprised (like Snake did with Zadornov in PW). And leaving him alive... Surrounded by people he betrayed, and Miller being total asshole for him (he was asshole for Huey, so if he had know what Chico did...), he would probably killed himself.

With how much Chico has changed, maybe the plan could have been for him to be the catalyst of Venom realizing that Paz was indeed dead, since she didn't change at all, like a hit of reality that it doesn't make sense that Paz is still frozen in time when everyone else has changed so much

bullshit xD i was waiting for him to appear at some point, Paz and Chico were both important figures to the story in both peace walker and ground zeros, and it isnt even mentioned what happened to Chico after ground zeros, it was the perfect whiny character to become a badass similar to Raiden.

ARGHHHHHH MGSV COULD HAVE BEEN SO COOOOOOOL DAMMIT!

Man, wouldn't it have been funny if Diamond Dogs got a transmission from Amanda saying that there was a signal at the now bombed out remains of Camp Omega? Imagine if the message was a distorted version of the message from Chico that brought Snake to the camp in the first place. Having the player explore what remained of the camp, finally coming upon the old prison and seeing this man in a red raincoat with a peace symbol on it. As the man turns around, he can make out a distorted, and the man welcomes Snake like an old friend, "Hey Boss...long time..." Revealing himself to be 'Chico', but he'd probably go by another name at this point or maybe simply call himself Ricardo, seeing as he no longer was a kid, but a man of 22 years. Exposition might be into play, but then we'd begin to see the unhinged part of Chico come out, to the point where the boss fight would begin. This fight might play out similarly to both Quiet and the male Skulls, he'd use the hook and his other close range weapons, and perhaps produce a gun like the Skulls in the first mission you encounter them in. (Though, I'd imagine it to be an AK he'd produce given his past with the FSNL.) The fight would end, and you would have a choice; kill him to put him out his misery of existing in a world where he betrayed everything he loved and cared about, or to allow him the chance to redeem himself and become a driving member of Diamond Dogs as a support unit for Snake. Possibly even having a moment that brings back Amanda, even if it's to have them reunite. The raincoat could be an optional part of his outfit similar to Quiet's XOF uniform, with the Null-like uniform being his standard gear to show he is in full support of Snake. [Years late, I know, but I started thinking about the game again and remembered the scrapped older Chico.]

well, this chico reminds me of that vampire minigame in MGS3 Subsistence, where you are controlling a hooded figure with hooks for weapon.

Jessen's Channel I totally forgot about that

Had he been in TPP, it would also make the players realize how much everything changed. In peace walker, the character's overall aura, while still in a military setting, was a bit more comedic in nature

Adios, Chico.

Felix the Snake El mejor personaje de MGS 5

Damn, Yong. Your thought process on symbolism mirrors *exactly* how I think when looking at this stuff. At least I know I'm not crazy, now! :-) Such a shame that this didn't make it into the game. You always want what you can't have, and maybe that has made me biased here, but with that in mind I just wanted to say, OMG, Chico's design here is by far the best character design in MGSV!

Such a lust for a better MGS

WHOOOOOOO!?!?!?

This would be my idea for Adult Chico. After surviving the crash Kaz may believe he died or after he was recovered his injuries, he disappears. He tries to go after Skull Face alone but he captures him for experimentation and because of his rage and anger he would be the first successful test subject for the skulls. But he eventually escapes. (This is where TPP comes in) In the game you can find brutality murdered corpses of X.O.F soldiers and hear soldiers talk about a red hooded man killing people in Afghanistan (similarly of how they talk about Quiet.) In a main mission, you need to find and capture a X.O.F commander. If you find him immediately, you capture him, but if you take to long, a cutscene will showing Adult Chico killing said commander and runs away after seeing Venom Snake. You would be a recurring enemy after this point. Then, near the end of chapter 1 instead of finding Skull Face crushed under a tower, you would find him being tortured by Chico and have a fight with him wear you take the cassette player and he shouts "I need that, give it back," then the fight ends and he goes away. In chapter 2 you can hear the cassette player and hear all the Chico cassette tapes from Ground Zeroes and make the connection that the Red hooded man is Chico. Then a divide between Snake and Kaz starts, where Kaz blames Chico but Snake doesn't. Eventually, in a boss type scenario, you fight him while you hear him talk to himself saying "I need it back!" After the fight, Snake tells him he knows what happened and that he forgives him, this could end on 3 ways. One way is he thanks Snake but he says "Do you think Kaz and the other survivors will do the same." Snake has look saying no so Chico leaves. The timeline thing in the credits could say he returned to his sister. Or way two, he goes with and becomes a buddy and has a character arc. Or lastly, way three where he comes with but he's put in a cell for treatment where you could visit him, kind of like Paz. What do you guys think?

@zachengland2271

Nero Nyte that could actually be kinda cool. They'd change his name to Frank Jaeger to protect his identity, and since Jaeger is not a common last name, it could disguise his accent as foreign, but not enough to pinpoint where he was born, and he'd eventually make his own mostly American accent. Also, the age range fits as well. In mgs 1 he'd be in his early to mid thirties, like Raiden in metal gear rising.

Nero Nyte He said that it was canon, but that parts of it needed to be revised.

Nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition!

they could use his body state to make the background for decoy octopus, what a missed oportunity.

The ear buds are probably another method he uses to remind himself of his guilt, and a representation of his "Phantom pain". I bet he probably still has the walkman from ground zeros and repeatedly plays the interrogation tapes as a reminder of his burdens.

The very fact he was considered to be in TPP gives Skull Face's and Big Boss's use of the line "Growing up means choosing how you're going to live your life", SO MUCH MORE significance.

i thought it was really weak that they just killed him off like they did, i thought he had potential

This is really amazing. Thanks YongYea

Son of bi- ...ah what could have been.

Again great work yong!

This game needed another year or two in development, combined with long cutscenes like MGS4, we could've had the game of the decade... fucking konami...

Man this is so depressing...... MGS5's story could have been so great. Imagine if Chico and mission 51 were included.

It's like every living thing that went into contact with Big Boss has gained an additional pair of testicles, twice the muscle mass and an amazonian jungle of facial hair in BADASS equivalence. Even tiny little Chico.

This video was awesome, this is exactly what I love/loved about Kojima.. His games have so much depth and thought put into them.. Such great character design and amazing messages and vision behind it all.. Its cool to have little bits like this to keep my MGS fix filled.

This is my own version of MGS V with Chico's story (is going to be large) before Huey kill Skull Face, he said: "Boss, your demons will never let you in peace, not only the Last English Parasite is close to you, I have one last puppet on my command, and now that I am going to die, he'll wake up, after all the hell he's been living." Weeks later after the end of Quiet history, Miller calls Boss telling him that they found the body of Quiet in some part of the desert and, if he want to, he could go to recovery and give her a funeral in Mother Base. Boss goes and he see that Quiet didn't die because the parasite, her body was cover with deep cuts, one special in the stomach part, then Boss have a flashback of the Paz operation in the choppers. "Keep you waiting, huh?" said a guy coming out and trying to attack Boss, "I couldn't rescue her, but you could save her, and you DIDN'T!!!" After a boss fight (this would be most a CQC fight, Chico's attack would be similar to the Skulls, but more faster and hell more difficult to counter, if you use letal weapons you kill "that crazy Skull" but if you CQC him you would discover that he is Chico and take him back to Mother Base. Then he replace Quiet like a support body but he will always said crazy things "I couldn't saver her" "You kill my compas, but you won't kill me" What do you guys think?

It could be for fishing, or it could be a meat hook. Gaff hooks are sometimes shaped like that hook. People use them to pull large fish up on to the boat.

If you think about it, the pace at which the game started, up until around mission 20 was very good at increasing the length of the main story and all of a sudden it starts to speed up to the point where the ending feels rushed and too soon. Maybe the story was supposed to drag on for longer but sadly is wasn't made that way.

Wait, Chico has almost the same plot as Quiet. What if Chico was originally supposed to be the 1st boss fight. But they cut him out for some reason, so they shoe horned in Quiet. Would explain her rushed and pointless story.

Bloody excellent video analysis ! this concept is one awsome idea and I am gutted that we never saw this realised in the final game :(

Why would anyone not use this amazing specimen of a character

I remember seeing an early gameplay where they took a look at the buddy list and Chico was in that menu. Makes me wonder how far along this was before Kojima decided to scrap it for time.

I'd be cool if you had him as your buddy in the games and the more your bond grows the peace sign on his back would become whole again and he can move on from the past

If Chico was planned to be in the game like that, he would have appeared years ago in the trailers or any of the trailers for that matter. Not every concept art you see was meant to be in the game.

You know, perhaps you're right... But keep in mind, that Raiden wasn't seen in any of MGS2 trailers as well, and he was the main character in the game for quite a time. If Kojima managed to hide him, he would've hide Chico as well. Sure, hiding Raiden was much more easier in 2001, and now is much harder to hide anything, but I think that Kojima could've manage it.

More cut content.. I still blame Kojima for 40% of V's problems, no extra dev time or money could fix core issues with the main plot and the way Quiet and Eli's potential was squandered, but I do blame Konami for this. I get the impression that this was an idea scrapped more because Kojima couldn't fit it in then him just deciding not to use the concept.

It was clearly set up in GZ. And don't you think it was weird how almost nothing was said about Chico in Phantom Pain other than like one line of dialogue on a tape? It all points to cut content, most likely because Konami rushed Kojima.

I wonder if they would use this in metal gear survive making Chico the hunter he always dreamed about during Peace Walker, that would be epic as hell to see.

I don't usually buy art books for games, but I may make an exception in this case if it hints at more unused concepts like this.
