Raiden was selected by the Patriots AI to become the next generation supersoldier project.
...
They deliberately went with a prettyboy twink.
...
guess the AIs had a "type".
Metal Gear Solid series but the Patriots were actually just wanted to oogle at cute boys in skintight outfits and were mad at Solid Snake for being a buff bear of a guy.
@Kyoji i'mmabout to blow your MIND
Raiden is the spitting image of Raidenovich, a GRU officer who served under Volgin, and who directly came into conflict with Naked Snake. Who would later be recruited by Major Zero into what would become the Patriots.
they started making AIs, which would then take over the Patriots, but eventually Naked Snake was like "nah fuck this shit I'm out" and worked against them.
ERGO
NAKED SNAKE
LIKED TWINKS TOO
AND PASSED THAT ON TO THE AIS
@Nine yeah, suddenly MGS2 makes sense
