I'm sure the characters would be balanced out, some having better skills than others. Ocelot's a good gunfighter, but there may be other characters more suited to stealth or heavy weapons or some other ability. Hideo compared her to Eva or Meryl, she's the main heroine of the game, but you can go an entire playthrough without meeting her. It's confusing but I like the concept.

I guess Ocelot would stand out against the forest of Africa and having to reload a revolver would get cumbersome, but one guy who can't die vs two known characters(Quiet and DD) that when die they stay dead, which are you going to pick?
