Not to mention on being a fucking coward who use an entire hospital full of innocent people (people who took care of him and cleaned his hairy ass) as meatshields just to escape like some kind of dirty rat and putting all the heat on Venom.

If anything, the only thing this game did was elevate Solid Snake as a character, not only as the ultimate soldier who kills legends and destroys nation sized armies on SOLO missions, but also as the better person, there is no way he would pull off the cowardly crap BB does in this game. Here's the problem with destroying Big Boss's legend:

If Big Boss was only a legend, who was helped during Snake Eater and duplicated through hynotherapy, then why create clones of him? It doesn't make sense to create Solid Snake, an inferior clone, if Naked Snake was not a genuinely good soldier. All his clones have beyond exceptional abilities on the battlefield.

Turning Big Boss into a coward isn't good character development, when we know for a fact in previous games he overcame many odds. He defeated the legendary Cobra Unit and The Boss, Ocelot, Volgin, and the Shagohod. In Portable Ops, he defeated Gene and his army, including Gray Fox. In Peace Walker he defeated like a dozen armored vehicles and a Metal Gear. To suddenly run away from the enemy doesn't fit his character.
