Oh yeah and to totally disprove ANY NOTION that you won't be playing TPP as Big Boss.

If the Phantom Pain is going to showcase Big Boss's torment, his turning point in his life, and show us how he founds Outer Heaven and how he becomes the dictator he is in the original Metal Gears...why in the hell would we be playing as someone else?! Hey, I agree with you, as its most likely going to be Big Boss. That being said, though, it doesn't discount the possibility anyways (Kojima already made clear that he intended to do a similar plot-twist from MGS2 for the new Metal Gear game(s), and aside from splitting the story into parts, the only particularly notable plot twist that hadn't been done before was basically playing as Raiden. Call me crazy, but the possibility's still there.). Plus, you have to admit, their mentioning that the LET project was abandoned in 1976 when there was literally no apparent reason to actually mention it can come across as somewhat suspicious. Most times with ending timelines they either have real life events padded out to make it seem like its in reality, or they have some direct relation to the game, and in the case of important events relating to characters or the series, such as Hal's birth or the FSLN victory. Even EVA's disappearance in Hanoi was implied in the ending to be the result of her bringing back a fake Legacy.
