The Metal Gear Solid series has been in the public eye for decades now, being referenced and quoted relentlessly across pop-culutre
It's complex and layered critiques of AI, weapons manufacturing, U.S. proxy wars, and covert stealth-ops has given it longevity in the
minds of its players, being many gamers' first glimpse into nuanced discussion about the horrors of war.

"War Has Changed.
It's no longer about nations, ideologies, or ethnicitiy. It's an endless series of proxy battles, fought by mercenaries and machines.
War- -and it's consumption of life- -has become a well-oiled machine.
War Has Changed.
ID-tagged soldiers carry ID-tagged weapsons, use ID-tagged gear. Nanomachines inside their bodies enhance and regulate their abilities.
Genetic control, infomation control, emotion control, battlefield control...everything is monitored and kept under control
War... has changed.
The age of deterrence has become the age of control, all in the names of averting catastrophe from weapons of mass destruction, and he who controls the battlefield, controls history.
War... has changed.
When the battlefield is under total control, war becomes routine."
