So, because he may be a figment of Snake's imagination, he is unimportant? John Konrad, the villain of Spec Ops: The Line, appears to be nothing more but a figment of the main character's imagination, yet he had so much influence inside and outside the game he made Gandhi look like a little undeveloped puppy with Parkinson's disease. Sure, it's implied that Spec Ops as a whole was a figment of the character's imagination (or the character living his hell, or whatever), but who is to say the Kojima isn't trying to achieve the same with TPP? We got a flaming demon thing riding a pony, we got a huge fiery flying whale and then Kojma enables us to select the missions in any order we like which seem to set up the stage for a huge twist in the end.
