The Glitter Fox Returns!
Alyxa wanted to remind everyone as to why she is know as the Glitter Fox:
For those of you who don't know, the reason why some people call me "Glitter Fox" is, again, because of Metal Gear Solid.Because in the first game, Metal Gear Solid, there was one viewer who saw me throwing a chaff grenade. And because of the little effects that it plays on the screen, it looked like glitter. So they started calling it glitter bomb. So now whenever I throw away a chaff grenade, I scream, "glitter bomb!"
And when they gave me a drawing, like my first fanart of me, it was me with a sneaking suit, holding a chaff grenade or a glitter bomb, and people started calling me Glitter Fox.
— Alyxa
Which is an incredibly charming reason to have a nickname, you'll agree
Which Games Have You Completed?The list of Metal Gear games that Alyxa has played through (on stream, no less) is impressive:
Metal Gear SolidMetal Gear Solid 2Metal GearMetal Gear 2: Solid SnakeMetal Gear Solid 3: Snake EaterMetal Gear Solid: Peace WalkerAnd not just that, Alyxa is a true ending achiever. Meaning that she plays all of the extra side missions and aims to get the best ending possible.
Pretty solid stuff... if you'll pardon the pun.
Squidge drops a knowledge bomb on us about Metal Gear Solid 2:
Metal Gear Solid 2 has got the second least lengthy cutscene content of all Metal Gear solid games. Second least.— Squidge
Which do you think has the lengthiest? Get your answers in now.
And Alyxa answers the question for us, a moment later:
On the official website of the Guinness World Records. If you search for "cutscene," the first thing that you're gonna see is "Longest cutscene in a videogame." And if you click that article, you're gonna get Metal Gear Solid 4 at 27 minutes.— Alyxa
