[SPOILER DISCUSSION] So what is the deal with Emmerich?
I finished the game and just like every other MGS games, it left some lingering questions. On the surface he didn't come out as a villian-type, yet he continued to make a string of horrible actions. Was he a villian and intentionally did all those to save his a** from Cipher? Or was just a bad judgment call?

He is a psychopath, and he believes in his own lies.

He has the "I'm Innocent/Play Stupid" act going on. He legit murdered Strangelove and continued to deny it even when presented with her own testimony saying he murdered her. So, I would say he did it all on purpose, he knew what he was doing and think he could act stupid and get away with it.

I find this extra weird considering how much likeness he shares with his son Hal (same voice even!) but are so different.

telling ya if huey emmerich was a psychopath he would of just ♥♥♥♥♥♥ up hal for cheating with huey's wife. Certainly not kill himself most of all. Probably just about anything else xD

Killing Skull Face isn't a big deal, it was pretty much a mercy kill. It's him killing Strangelove and believing he's somehow innocent that's more concerning.

Despite his horrible actions I sympathize with him, maybe a psychopath's charm? lol

Not really my point. The fact that he also let strangelove die isn't magically going to turn him psychopath. Huey is a lot of things but he's not a psychopath.

He is more a sociopath, seeing how he act around everybody, but he sure has trait of a psycho has well, he doesn't seem to have any guilt of what he done because he will always deny it even as he doing it.
He is one of the most dangerous person because it's hard to see his bad side as he always act good and twist ppl mind to trust him and see him as the right one, noone know how he really was back in Peace Walker, we all thought he was good like his son but he is probably the worse as a human being, even worse than Skull Face that is the usual villain wth drove by revenge~

protip: you don't have to be a sociopath or a psychopath to be emotionally unstable such as suppressing or not feeling guilt. I hear you though, his traits are far more line line with the traditional "sociopath" diagnosis, if that was ever actually a real diagnosis anyway.

"normal" (as in not psychopath in this case) people have sometimes done far worse.
