MGS bad guys recycle

[akiba1953]

Ok I was up set at the end of MGS2 that you find out that That Dead Cell Was basically Foxhound. And then in MGS4 it was the same but They where called by the foxhound names. In Metal Gear And Metal gear 2 solid snake They were original bad guys as in MGS3. And I feel that MGS3 should have just MG not S. as for portable ops and peace walker have new bad guys that where not the orgins of the fox members from MGS. I hope I said most of this kinda clearly.

Have you played Portable Ops?

Spoiler:

One Boss is Grey Fox, or Frank Jaeger. so that is some kind of massive recycle right?

[akiba1953]

Yes. I know that they where Fox members. But not sniper wolf in reincarnation.

I don't think they were actual Reincarnations...I didn't mind that the boss battles of MGS4 were like MGS I think 4 was all about nostalgia anyway.

I do agree that it was probably intentional, but it doesn't seem quite as monotonous when certain characters are brought back in several games because it builds their character's background. So when the games repeat their history/gameplay with new characters, I can see how that might seem kind of cheap.
