However, I still wouldn't say Quiet had the most development or even the most characterization in the game. As warped as the other characters were in terms of personality and characterization, at least they were somewhat consistent to how they were depicted within the context of this game (ie, Miller's an angry man, Ocelot's level-headed, Huey's... a rat [though speaking as an actual rat-lover, I really wish I could say something other than that term, as knowing from experience, rats are actually pretty sweet and loyal creatures and not backstabbers as the term implies], Eli's a kid psychopath, even Skull Face had retained his hatred of Zero, and Man on Fire was a man out for revenge, among others). Many times, they didn't even know whether to treat Quiet as the ice-cold assassin that she was in the opening mission, or otherwise have the same teasing personality of a stripper. Even the Dead or Alive girls had more character development and personality than Quiet did, and the game franchise they came from is rather infamous for its boat load of fanservice at the girls' expense. Come on, dude. Quiet had plenty of character development. She started off as a cold blooded killer set out to kill big boss but after he took her in she eventually fell for him and decided to sacrifice her own life just to save him. Name one character in MGSV that came close to being that developed. Personality-wise she's pretty bland, I'll give you that. But character-wise she's undeniably fascinating. Especially her deep, personal relationship with Code Talker (which made me almost want to care about the guy). And I think maybe the reason her character keeps having these personality shifts is because she's still deciding whether or not she still wanted revenge against Big Boss as explained in mission 45. If your referring to the rain dance scene (which believe me, I hate as much as anyone else) then it's all depending on your bond level with her. To my understanding, if you raise your bond with her then she becomes progressively more affectionate as the game goes on, but if you don't, then she continues to spite you. Hell, from what I've heard, you can actually prevent her from leaving alltogether if you keep her bond level below 100. Ironic, isn't it? That the more she hates you, the more she wants to stay at mother base XD

But hey, your entitled to your own opinion in the end.
