First of all, I'm a huge saver, so Rose wasn't ever that annoying to me because I wouldn't save just when I was turning off the game, or when I was anticipating a big boss fight or dramatic scene. Secondly, considering the meta themes of the game, I felt that the player was supposed to feel somewhat hostile to Rose. After all, she represents Raiden's fictional (but real to him) life, and Raiden's independence from the player. This is naturally against our own interests.

Finally, even though I liked Raiden, MAN did I also think of him as a nasal-voiced, pissy little punk. So Rose bugging Raiden wasn't irritating, it was justice.

Oh, God. I loved MGS2 Raiden, but he WAS a whiny little punk. Rose always hounding him just made me think that she was this pretty, contradictory lil' woman. Not only did she represent all the lies floating around him, she represented his chance of normalcy.

Then again, I liked MGS4 Raiden. But unlike the fanbase, who went all sparklypoo over the new badass ninja version of him, I couldn't help but feel some resentment towards him for running away from Rose when she needed him the most. I mean, yeah, he kicked total ass, but he was still an abandoning douchebag.

Rose is kinda a paradox. She represents Raiden's best chance to cut himself off from the needs and control of the player by immersing himself in his own reality, but she is also a complete deceit in herself. Towards the end of MGS2 we don't even know how much of her is reality, only the choice that Raiden makes in regards to her. =

Hee, part of the "problem" with Raiden was his voice-actor's ability to read some lines in the most bitchy, snarky ways that make you kinda want Snake or Stillman to slap him up a bit. But I also think that he's supposed to incite these feelings. I don't think the player was ever supposed to feel entirely comfortable with Raiden... and say what you want, at least Raiden let his personality be known.

I ended up really liking the guy, and I found him one of the most dynamic characters in the series, based on how much he grows from his first introduction to the end of Metal Gear Solid 2.

Anyways, can't talk too much about MGS4 because I haven't played it yet, though I have seen the first few hours (but the players aren't nearly as into calling CODEC as I am, so I have to play it myself).
