Metal Gear Rising's Story - 3 Theories

After the reveal of Metal Gear Rising Revengeance at the VGAs, there has been a lot of mystery surrounding the story of the game. What possible directions could the story take? What’s up with Raiden’s bloodlust, and why is he on the battlefield again? Why is he taking revenge, as the title implies? Here are three theories based on what has been revealed so far.

Yeah indeed...Derbin will make a presence!!! I bet he will be the one who, that we gonna pay to upgrade money like in bayonetta but this time with Derbin..

[Nyxus]

Yeah, I do think it will be something like that. Having upgradable moves and weapons is kind of a staple of the genre, and of Platinum Games.

Really? Derbin? Its Drebin. Lmfao

Rising is gonna be my 2nd favorite franchise atfer MGS:Solid... :)

This has a GREAT oppurtunity :)

[Nyxus]

I wonder if it indeed turns into a franchise, and if so, wether or not Platinum Games will keep making them. I guess it depends on the success of Revengeance.

[BuffMordecai]

Knowing Platinum, the story will probably be a joke but the gameplay will be excellent.

[Nyxus]

From what I understand, the story is being handled by Kojima Productions (not Kojima himself though).

[D3mons0ul]

Platinum isn't doing it. KojiPro is in charge of story and cutscenes.

[GunzBlazing09]

Not really the writer from Kojima Productions is the one working into the story, PLATINIUM DOES NOTHING in terms of Story

[D3mons0ul]

All of that sounds awesome.
