ALL POSTSWhy Kojima didnt confirm Solid Snake status post MGS4? (Spoilers)
<p>This is a copy-paste from another thread because I was going offtopic there.
</p><p>Kojima left the door open with the character, there is no confirmation about his status post MGS4, the final timeline at the end of V doesnt confirm his death either. I mean, this guy is pretty protective about his saga, he pretty much trash any game that isnt made by him, he could have easily close any chance to bring back that character, yet he didnt.
</p><p>I also did find weird that Rising didnt confirm his death, the writting team definetly left the door open too.
</p><p>I wouldnt be suprised if Konami brought back for MGS6 (remake or full mgs4 sequel), he is metal gear golden boy afterall, Solid Snake games are the best selling games in the entire franchise. They could use any asspulls to bring him back, nanos, parasites, cyborg augs, exo, fine by me, the real hero of the series needs to come back.
</p><p>Thoughts?

<p>Pretty unlikely, it was established in MGS4 that Snake only had about a year left to live at most and that flesh and blood operatives were becoming obsolete in a world with increasing cybernetic security (as shown in Rising).
</p><p>The novelisation of MGS4 also depicts Snake as dying with a smile on his face, surrounded by friends, sometime after the events of MGS4. I think after everything that happened to him, he deserves to live a quiet and peaceful life in what little time he has left.
</p><p>I do think, however, that they could remake the events of MG1 and MG2:SS. Expand the story and tie everything together. That way we could once again play as snake without having to ruin his happy ending.

Thankfully Rising had the decency not to mention Solid Snake at all because they would have just screwed it up like everything else.

<p>Considering Rising characters and main story are MILES better than the shitstain of story that is MGSV, the game that retconned the entire series and reduced Big Boss status into a bitch false legend, I doubt that.
