I think if Nero ended up looking like Ladys little sister it would be a lot more similar to MGS2. But Nero is basicly just Dante again in almost every way unlike Raiden who had more of an independent personality. I think the problem some people had with Raiden was
1 people who thought he was a wimpy little girl.
2 MGS1 fans who were looking forward to playing as Snake but only found they could play him for the first like..15 mins.
I am hoping that Nero will be more like Raiden in this game, more emotional and dramatic than just smart mouthing everyone. I want him to be more like Dante in DMC1 (and it looks like he will be from the recent trailer)
.
I dont really see the point of introducing a new character if your going to make exactly the same as Dante.
Personally I didnt mind playing as Raiden and am looking forward to playing as Nero.
