This has gone kinda offtopic isn't it. XD
Yes. It has so would you crazy fellows please get back on it :P

The reason Ocelot raped Meryl is because...

...he didn't. Heli was right when he said it was a translation problem (so to speak); the MGS1 translator, Jeremy Blaustein, took some liberties with the original script when localizing it and one such liberty was the infamous line implying she got raped.

Don't even think about using auto-fire, or I'll know.

Well, if that's the case, would someone kindly bring me a link to the japanese version of that scene. So I'll listen to what Meryl says and see if it was all a translation problem..... :blink:

Ugh...you sound like one of those HMO people who look for the slightest of things to deny someone of health insurance. Does it really matter? The bottom line is: ocelot's the shit, he didn't go barely legal on us and he wouldn't, because...he's the shit.

In any case, I don't see what's the fuss about Ocy being possibly attracted by someone. It would make him more realistic. Even the legendary icon Big Boss did have his desires. XD


Ocelot =/= Big Boss, fuck your realism, the dude owned a swarm of bees with two SAAs.

Don't tread on me.

What other liberties, if any, did the translator take?

I think Ocelot remains rather enigmatic in terms of what he enjoys, his sexuality and true identity. He's always been a shifty triple-crosser.

In MG 2: SS...a skater named Gustava Heffner...although I believe in the original versions her name was Natasha.

I'm just saying someone with such grand schemes as Ocelot (first with the Patriots, and then trying to make Big Boss's dream come true) shouldn't have his "mystique and aura" be dragged down by sexual interests...but that's just me.
when you put it like that i completely agree.
