I agree anon. I protected the fuck out of the people. I do have strong opinions on videogame narratives but at the end of the day they're optional and games like MGS2, which is my all time favorite, should remain a novelty and an exception.

10 stars in any of the 4 games is much harder than any A/S rank in classic RE games. I've done it in 1,2 and 4. 3 Filtered me three times with bullshit time limits in all bossfights, and I ragequit trying.
Movement is harder in general and can get pretty technical at times, you're forced to kill things and put yourself in danger and the miscellaneous requirements such as the boat ride in 2 are also pretty hard. 1 specially has relentless enemies that will fuck your shit up. I have more fun with RE challenges but SH is definitely more of a challenge. It's the sort of thing you don't see almost at all, whereas RE ranks are pretty common since they're much easier to accomplish.

I remember when I got the 10 star rank on SH1. A couple of requirements for it almost sound like a joke, but they aren't.

"Defeated enemy by: 30+ points from the formula (A + B / 2) / (5 + C), where A and B are "by fighting" and "by shooting"; the bigger counts as B and the lesser counts as A, and C is (attacks with bonus weapons - game clears * 5 - 15). C can't be less than 0. Examples: with 80 by fighting, 140 by shooting and 30 "bonus"-attacks, the formula will be (80 + 140 / 2) / (5 + 0) = 30. With 120 by fighting, 100 by shooting, 45 "bonus"-attacks and 5 game clears, the formula will be (100 + 120 / 2) / (5 + 5) = 16.
Shooting style: 1+ points from the formula (short range shots + middle range shots * 2 + long range shots * 3 - no aiming shots * 4). No aiming shots are missed bullets, missed shotgun pellets and Hyper Blaster shots"

Yes. I'm >>7276990 and the only one I'm missing 10 star on is SH3. Though I had a bad time trying to get it done on 1 because I didn't feel like counting or making a note for every single kill I got.
