Quite frankly, I can't sympathize with very many of the characters, not Solid Snake, who thanks to MGS1 was more like a psychopath, as even Meryl and Roy pointed out, his own allies in other words. There was absolutely no reason to change him to be that in MGS1, especially when he actually got a happy ending in MG2. And MGS2 made him worse by making him a hypocrite by doing the exact same stuff to Raiden that he utterly hated Campbell and Big Boss for, so I'm doubtful it will matter. I also didn't sympathize much with very many other characters, since they were all bad. I prefer a black and white morality system.

2. Yeah agreed. I only initially joined because I wanted to input information about Portable Ops, in particular Raikov, after noticing it was scarce there.

3. I was only saying that I currently have a very low opinion of "don't judge a book by its cover" morals because of what Sartre did, and that I also have a low opinion currently on gradual love because of what generally happens. If you disagree with me, fine, no issue there, but at least respond to this bit here that demonstrates what Sartre did: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-559137/Dangerous-liaisons-sex-teens-The-story-Sartre-Beauvoir-told-before.html As for Snake doing to Raiden what Venom, and Roy did to him I think that was the point, to show he wasn't immune to making the same mistakes his betters did before, and to drive home that Raiden was so similar to him.

Anyway, to stay on topic, Huey was an asshole, he tried to have everyone on the base killed even after everyone was rendered infertile(which I think Hideo only did to make sure there were no "Son/Daughters of _______" sequels in the future)  The game's story itself just felt like a middle finger to most of Peace Walker's cast. Chico's dead, Strangelove is dead, Amanda's got her own life, Cecile's probably getting hammered in Paris. Miller got screwed, Huey turned into "I didn't kill anyone! Even though...you all saw me shoot Skullface ten minutes ago..."
