I think monsoon was challenging the facade that Raiden put up, making Raiden realize that he isn't much different than the despardo. Afterward, Raiden's goal was to find meaning in it. I think In better writer's hands, the themes woulda hit better.

The ironic thing is that this is basically Raiden’s character in a nutshell. He enjoys the bloodshed, but is also deeply ashamed of it. He makes up that whole cock-and-bull motive of “protecting the weak” to convince himself he’s still the good guy in order to cope with his shame. When Monsoon and Sam force him to acknowledge the truth, he drops the act and sets aside his identity crisis to do the right thing and prevent World Marshall and Desperadoes from creating more Raidens.

The morality bit always got me in MGR, like "Oh Raiden, these POOR soldiers, some of them can only find work being PMCs, poor them, you're such a bad guy killing these humans that have feelings and emotions." When literally World Marshall is the one taking advantage of those people who can only find work as PMCs and choosing to send them all at a dude nicknamed "Jack the Ripper". Also we see many of the WM soldiers executing innocent civilians(If Raiden does nothing), this is quite possibly one of the most black and white moral dilemmas, I mean what is Raiden supposed to do? Just atop fighting and let WM win? Let the "Cull the weak" and make a "new America"? "Raiden, bad guys are people too!" His response should have been: "Yeah, bad people, they do bad things, like murder civilians and shit for no reason."

Sam is being a little disingenuous when he tells Raiden that the soldiers don't have a choice or are being coerced. Ultimately these soldiers volunteered, unlike the children soldiers WM abducts. The whole point of Sam's deal is to piss Raiden off and make him admit why he fights. Raiden lies to himself about justice but he fights because he likes it and he kills WM soldiers because they are part of the system turning children into what Raiden was turned into. He can't stand to see kids treated like he was so he will kill anyone who does this. It's honest for once and refreshing to see

@@Andrew-ko2ps The soldiers he faces have inhibitor chips in them that reduce fear and pain (much like what Raiden does) but Raiden kinda just assumed they were willingly choosing to face him. If you actually do a few codec calls in places there are hints that the soldiers you face are paid rather well but that is because there is a special caveat in their contract... If their bodies are severely severely damaged, they have a self-destruct function that destroys the brain. To prevent them being taken as POW's and having information on WM leaked. Technically this is an illegal modification even in the MGSR universe. So even if you play Raiden to just disarm your opponents (literally) they still die to their own cybernetics.

I mean... yes, exactly. That's the exact point that MGR is making. Sam's attempt to disable Raiden emotionally works for a moment, but then the philosophy of Desperado ends up backfiring when Raiden re-embraces his "Jack the Ripper" persona. Monsoon: See, Jack? Your philosophy of "protecting the weak" was just a flimsy excuse to kill. All that really matters is strength. The weak are preyed upon by the strong and that's the way it is. Raiden: You know what? You're right. I do just like killing. And I have preyed on those weaker than me. Monsoon: So you admit it? Raiden: Yep. The strong *will* dominate the weak. Monsoon: Good, so- Raiden: And there's nothing weaker than being a coward who preys on children by kidnapping them and selling their bodies for profit.

@@tranqle73 its more about Raiden's acceptance of "Jack". Raiden had been doing fine over coming the effects of his life as a child soldier and the Sears Program (Thanks to nanomachines suppressing his trauma and coaching by Snake) but his defeat at Sam's hands however reveals that Rsiden has been subconsciously handicapping himself for years but Raiden is afraid to tap into his "True Nature" because before it made him unhinged and he had no control over who he killed (hence his other name, "White Devil"). However, using "Jack" as an adult is quite deferent, as a child he kinda got an almost sexual thrill from killing, but an adult, Jack wants to kill anyone willing to exploit children and murder them, no matter how many laws ot social taboos he has to break. Jack has his own developed sense of "Justice". It just takes abit of therapy from Blade Wolf (and a suggestion from Armstrong) for Raiden to accept the duality of his nature.

They're still destroying nations to trigger massive wars. Are we, as Raiden, a Guy Who Can Do Somethinf About It, just supposed to ignore them destroying nations? Especially when you consider that Raiden seems to have had an important role in building those peaceful and advancing nations? Raiden and the people around him are doing important work and these fuckers come in like 1970s CIA and ruin everything for their own agenda. Every person you kill in MGRR is participating in ruining or ending the lives of millions for the pie in the sky dreams of a hypocrite. Is raiden a monster? Yeah, sure, he's fucking horrifying once you turn the soundtrack off, but he's not indiscriminate. He KNOWS he's a monster. And he restrains himself in who gets targetted.

Tbf, the best way to respond to this is to focus on incapacitating targets rather than killing them. Soldiers that have been de-limbed are not having a great day, but they escape with their lives and can't interfere with Raiden at that stage. Even if Armstrong is singlehandedly streamlining every soldier's limb replacement to get them back out there, it likely takes days or even weeks to accomplish.

The ironic thing is that this is basically Raiden’s character in a nutshell. He enjoys the bloodshed, but is also deeply ashamed of it. He makes up that whole cock-and-bull motive of “protecting the weak” to convince himself he’s still the good guy in order to cope with his shame. When Monsoon and Sam force him to acknowledge the truth, he drops the act and sets aside his identity crisis to do the right thing and prevent World Marshall and Desperadoes from creating more Raidens.

Well it's a relatively old game with a VERY dedicated fanbase. I praise it every chance I get.
The morality bit always got me in MGR, like "Oh Raiden, these POOR soldiers, some of them can only find work being PMCs, poor them, you're such a bad guy killing these humans that have feelings and emotions." When literally World Marshall is the one taking advantage of those people who can only find work as PMCs and choosing to send them all at a dude nicknamed "Jack the Ripper". Also we see many of the WM soldiers executing innocent civilians(If Raiden does nothing), this is quite possibly one of the most black and white moral dilemmas, I mean what is Raiden supposed to do? Just atop fighting and let WM win? Let the "Cull the weak" and make a "new America"? "Raiden, bad guys are people too!" His response should have been: "Yeah, bad people, they do bad things, like murder civilians and shit for no reason."

Sam is being a little disingenuous when he tells Raiden that the soldiers don't have a choice or are being coerced. Ultimately these soldiers volunteered, unlike the children soldiers WM abducts. The whole point of Sam's deal is to piss Raiden off and make him admit why he fights. Raiden lies to himself about justice but he fights because he likes it and he kills WM soldiers because they are part of the system turning children into what Raiden was turned into. He can't stand to see kids treated like he was so he will kill anyone who does this. It's honest for once and refreshing to see

@@Andrew-ko2ps The soldiers he faces have inhibitor chips in them that reduce fear and pain (much like what Raiden does) but Raiden kinda just assumed they were willingly choosing to face him. If you actually do a few codec calls in places there are hints that the soldiers you face are paid rather well but that is because there is a special caveat in their contract... If their bodies are severely severely damaged, they have a self-destruct function that destroys the brain. To prevent them being taken as POW's and having information on WM leaked. Technically this is an illegal modification even in the MGSR universe. So even if you play Raiden to just disarm your opponents (literally) they still die to their own cybernetics.

I mean... yes, exactly. That's the exact point that MGR is making. Sam's attempt to disable Raiden emotionally works for a moment, but then the philosophy of Desperado ends up backfiring when Raiden re-embraces his "Jack the Ripper" persona. Monsoon: See, Jack? Your philosophy of "protecting the weak" was just a flimsy excuse to kill. All that really matters is strength. The weak are preyed upon by the strong and that's the way it is. Raiden: You know what? You're right. I do just like killing. And I have preyed on those weaker than me. Monsoon: So you admit it? Raiden: Yep. The strong *will* dominate the weak. Monsoon: Good, so- Raiden: And there's nothing weaker than being a coward who preys on children by kidnapping them and selling their bodies for profit.

@@tranqle73 its more about Raiden's acceptance of "Jack". Raiden had been doing fine over coming the effects of his life as a child soldier and the Sears Program (Thanks to nanomachines suppressing his trauma and coaching by Snake) but his defeat at Sam's hands however reveals that Rsiden has been subconsciously handicapping himself for years but Raiden is afraid to tap into his "True Nature" because before it made him unhinged and he had no control over who he killed (hence his other name, "White Devil"). However, using "Jack" as an adult is quite deferent, as a child he kinda got an almost sexual thrill from killing, but an adult, Jack wants to kill anyone willing to exploit children and murder them, no matter how many laws ot social taboos he has to break. Jack has his own developed sense of "Justice". It just takes abit of therapy from Blade Wolf (and a suggestion from Armstrong) for Raiden to accept the duality of his nature.

I still think the 'moral' of the monsoon fight is utter bullshit. Yeah. Sure. Fine. Those men weren't utter evil. They had thoughts, feelings, lives. They were desperate for any kind of work. They're still destroying nations to trigger massive wars. Are we, as Raiden, a Guy Who Can Do Somethinf About It, just supposed to ignore them destroying nations? Especially when you consider that Raiden seems to have had an important role in building those peaceful and advancing nations? Raiden and the people around him are doing important work and these fuckers come in like 1970s CIA and ruin everything for their own agenda. Every person you kill in MGRR is participating in ruining or ending the lives of millions for the pie in the sky dreams of a hypocrite. Is raiden a monster? Yeah, sure, he's fucking horrifying once you turn the soundtrack off, but he's not indiscriminate. He KNOWS he's a monster. And he restrains himself in who gets targetted.

That was my interpretation too. I never got the feeling that "Monsoon was right, Raiden is really evil"-- honestly, I disagree that that ever came across as a "moral". Raiden just beats himself up about it *because* he still is a good person doing the right thing in his own hyperviolent way.

You overlooked the fact that the people doing the killing have nothing left to live for. Remember, Raiden himself said "What choice did they have". It's the system designed to abuse people. This applies in real life too. Corporations are so big you don't even know who you're working for. Strengthen governments and corporations. Weaken individuals. That's terror. Terror built into the system.

I don’t know much about this series at all, but the way I see it, if your trying to murder innocent people and entire nations, even if it’s for just work, then why would anyone care if you get killed by someone trying to stop you? You were the one harming innocent people in the first place. And in cases where the henchmen are being mind controlled, why not blame the person controlling them in the first place?

Tbf, the best way to respond to this is to focus on incapacitating targets rather than killing them. Soldiers that have been de-limbed are not having a great day, but they escape with their lives and can't interfere with Raiden at that stage. Even if Armstrong is singlehandedly streamlining every soldier's limb replacement to get them back out there, it likely takes days or even weeks to accomplish.

"You've finally experienced basic fucking empathy" is the best line ever
"I slice and dice so many of my enemies into cheese cubes and I can never find this "Empathy" people keep saying I lack! It must be down to the microscopic level. I'll keep dicing till I find it!"
"Play song Devil Trigger by Casey Edwards" has to be the best punchline I've seen for a joke in a while. I literally had to pause it to laugh and catch my breathe
All of this canonically takes place in one week according to the lore
The more I know about Raiden in MGS2, the more I love him. However this change, and Raiden as a character in general, ooh man I just love him so much. From a naive kid to a badass robot cyborg. There's so much to say yet I don't know how. Just a great character all around. My most fav game character, DEFINITELY.
Raiden is on a quest to renew the job market *one life at a time*
''I want their loved ones to bury their pieces in shoe boxes'' bro im dead 💀💀
That part of the game didn't end up like that though, funnily enough Empathy Echo: "I don't want to do this!" Actual Dialogue: " *I CAN'T WAIT TO FUCK YOU UP!* "

I'm revisiting the whole Raiden's Wacky Week playlist and I just wanted to post one comment to say this is my favorite video of them all (Raiden's Resignation Letter is a close second), the comedy is just perfect, the random epic music video at the end is great, the superfast editing turns my brain into mush, I love it.
