It's somewhat related to Quiet's background and why she is silent all the time. I recommend you to watch the scene on youtube just to know what you missed.

Spoilers here: At the end of the torture scene after V unties Quiet and leaves the room, Code Talker speaks to Quiet in Navajo. After which, Quiet confides to Code Talker that she has been infected with the Vocal Parasite Strain, specifically the English language. This is why she never speaks a word of English, in fear that the people around her will die.

Edit: For a continuation of Quiet's storyline (i.e. events after torture scene), develop a 100% bond with her.

tsk tsk tsk. You never skip cut scenes on a first play through. You miss significant parts of the story line that way. Yes you missed something, but I think it's more important than Shnick makes out to be, which for me, became an emotional scene near the end.

Yes it is more specific than "some people" for sure. :)

Why did you decide to skip this scene? Not blaming you or anything, you do what you want. Just want to know the reason behind it.

i love quiet too much, i just don't want to see her get hurt.

quiet is the only game character which has caused much stronger feelings in me than any real woman, you know how she starts to stare you when you have 100% bond with her? it was just really beautiful and i have a ton of screenshots of the same situation.

Yeah... I figured that was your reason.

Well in the cutscene you skipped, the torture last for like 10 seconds, really. But what you see after, it makes you understand the character a lot more. That's why you'd better not skip cutscenes, especially if you like Quiet that much. If you keep skiping whenever she gets hurt you'll miss quite important things... I'm not telling you what to do tho, just some advices, don't take it wrong.

That Quiet is stupid... that's all you missed.

She apparently can fluently speak a second language, yet simply chooses not to for... Reasons.


When you eventually look at things retrospectively at the end of the game, you eventually realise is actually just really stupid. She obviously has military training, speaks several languages fluently, and is capable of possibly communicating in combat gestures, writing, or mores code... yet simply chooses not to for reasons of dramatic tension.

If i could 100% the game with having shot her in the face when i first met her... i would do it with out hesitation.

Amen to that.

Plus she is clearly infatuated with Snake and he never bangs her. Totally unrealistic. Soldiers are dogs.

its really dark, and yes you missed something huge. tbh it probably changed her respect of him into outright adoration.

EDIT - sorry that first torture scene is pretty tame compared to what you're about to see. That's all I can say though, if you have the strength to watch it.

yeah idk why they didnt include a romance scene or anything with her, even if it was optional or some kinda secret with max bond or something... oh well

there was a scene with raining in the mother base and quiet gets excited, and then snake and quiet have a water fight and they briefly hug each other

I missed that one. They probably bang in chapter 3 after she is cured.

The rain scene is just something that randomly happens when you return to mother base after getting quiet's bond to max. She also has to be on the chopper with you. There's also a special one that takes place on the date you entered as your birthday.

Yes, I love that! I think I'm in love with an animated game character. :)
