History NightmareFuel / MetalGearRisingRevengeance

* Mistral cruelly destroying one of her one drones by tearing off its arms and smashing the sphere unit in half just to show off her ruthlessness as a killer.

** He's so crazy that even Monsoon is frightened by him.

** Mistral is Multi-ArmedAndDangerous and can get new arms from mini-gekkos.

* The early concepts of [[spoiler: Senator Armstrong's [[http://static1.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20130403084209/metalgear/images/3/32/Tumblr_mjh0qir5Vb1ra3yaho1_1280.png.jpg nanomachine enhancements]] ]] were absolutely terrifying.

--> [[spoiler: ''Senator Armstrong'': [[NightmareRetardant Nanomachines, son.]]]]

** If it's any consolation, Wolf was AI, as opposed to the somewhat human Winds of Destruction.

* Raiden's Jack the Ripper persona is an AxCrazy sociopath who [[CombatSadomasochist gets off on killing and slicing into people as well as having being stabbed himself]]. At the end of the [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9z-0zp5wnZ0 Jack The Ripper trailer]], Raiden even [[PutTheLaughterInSlaughter maniacally laughs as he slices down multiple foes]]. To quote the man himself: "Pain. This is why I fight."

* [[spoiler:Senator Armstrong after [[IAmNotLeftHanded activates his nanites]]. His eyes [[RedEyesTakeWarning turn red]], his arteries bulge out and cover his body, and every time he needs to deliver a haymaker or gets hit by Raiden, his skin turns a mechanical gray for a second before going back. After getting used to thinking of him as a politician in a suit, it's rather freaky to see him reveal himself as something akin to a more obviously [[UncannyValley inhuman]] cyborgs. Unlike most, it's not Cyborg tech but Nanomachines.]]
** [[spoiler:[[MemeticMutation Son.]]]]
*** [[spoiler:Even worse, if you look closely at his skin near where the greyish color ends, you can see red and veins on his skin. This can have the effect of looking like blood, almost as if [[BodyHorror the Nanomachines are tearing the armor through his skin, then regnerating him at high speed]].]]

* The ape-like Unmanned Gears. Mix that with a BlackoutBasement level in the underground railroad in R-03, and you're in for a pretty scary experience.

* Even the MUSIC for the game can be scary. Case in point; [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2dPaVk4G1jg Collective Consciousness]], the semi-final boss theme, is utterly terrifying. Heavy beats, screeching violins and guitars, distorted electronic noises, and the brutally fast pace all make it really intimidating. And the lyrics are frightening too, speaking of [[{{BreadAndCircuses}} keeping the masses under control while the world falls apart around them.]] Those growling voices near the end DO NOT HELP.

* When Raiden has to[[spoiler: fight against enemy cyborgs while being forced to hear [[AndIMustScream their horrified thoughts at having to engage]] him, and later enters [[AxeCrazy Ripper Mode]] for the first time in game after Moonsoon and Sam's combined [[HannibalLecture Hannibal Lecture]], moments after being impaled through the stomach and disabling his pain inhibitors. The entire scene becomes awash in black and white [[RedEyesTakeWarning as his right eye snaps open]]]] and seconds later a trio of mooks has been forcefully separated from their torsos via sword as our hero [[EvilLaugh cackles maniacally]].

* LQ-84i's existence. A sentient AI weapon ordered to "defend the freedom of Abkhazia". However, it will be mind wiped at the first sign of questioning orders.

** [[spoiler: In the Denver server room even more brains are shown, and [[CompleteMonster Sundowner]] even strokes one as it undulates in muted terror.]]

* Cyborgs and [[VibroWeapon their associated weapons]] must be pretty terrifying to unaugmented, squishy humans. Take President N'Mani's kidnapping, for example. Sundowner hacks his guards into pieces while grinning, then picks him up like a ragdoll as he tries to escape his burning limo. Sundowner then ties him up and tortures him by pressing his high-frequency machete into N'Mani's neck, which is not only switched on, but also extremely hot. You can hear and see N'Mani's blood and flesh sizzling. The fact that the first thing he does after being cut loose is hold his neck closed and tell Raiden not to worry about him is a pretty awesome moment, when you think about it.

** Those enemies get a mention on their own because of how vicious and animalistic they are. Not to mention they're the DemonicSpiders of the game. And on [[HarderThanHard Revengeance Mode]], you have to fight one of them right near the start of the very first mission. Have fun.

* How Sam loses his arm. [[spoiler: He slices off Armstrong's hand, leaving a crude, black-armored point. Armstrong knocks him to the floor and drives the sharpened point through his shoulder. The normally cool and collected Sam has a look of absolute horror on his face, and there's a shot of the arm twitching in its death throes and going limp.]]

* Performing Zandatsu on [[spoiler: Senator Armstrong.]] While it is very much awesome, you were previously ripping out fuel cells from cyborgs. The final battle has you [[spoiler: ripping out someone's nanomachine-laced heart and crushing it while it still beats.]]
