I don't know how anybody thinks that Raiden saying lines like "It's time for Jack to let 'er rip." is cool. Like sure Raiden whined before, but now his character is DmC levels of shit.
Rising could have been good, but then Platinum Games had to mix in their shitty humor and over-blown style into it. I don't want to play a game where the soundtrack sounds like remixes of Greenday songs, and the dialogue sounds like it was written by a teenager.

"Time for Jack to let 'er rip" is more classic DMC cheese than DmC try-hard stuff. To be fair, in my opinion that's probably the most groan-worthy Raiden moment in MGR.
Complaining about shitty humor and over-blown style makes me wonder if you remember much about the Kojima Metal Gear games though. Because it's not like a lot of that was foreign to the franchise before Platinum stepped in. Armstrong, for example, is pretty much an amalgamation of previous Metal Gear bosses.

I hope it's actually a direct sequel and Raiden is still the main character.

Nah, it just makes him sound like a dork which is why Raiden is such a fun character in Metal Gear Rising (when he's not going through his Jack is Back brooding period). Raiden is not a badass in MGR, he's still the same huge doofus from MGS2 but now he doesn't whine as much any more.
And that's just the way we like him!
i got a Cronus Max, i can see what its like by mapping the PS4 touchpad toright stick and play Rising 1.
ill let you know how it goes
I disagree, a majority of the story is in the optional codec conversations, and those are generally at about a MGS1 level of grounded-ness.
MGS2's story is still way more out there than Revengeance, it's mostly the action scenes that are dialed up to 11 in MGR.

Just please keep the parry mechanic. It was so much more satisfying than blocking.
If they do, then they need to rework it slightly. Mastering the parry essentially broke the game in terms of effectiveness, and it often encouraged 'restart' behavior for players that didn't so it right.
I'm ok with both block and parry, but just using the same system exactly would be a mistake IMO.

its probably going to be XBO/PS4/PC in NA and EU and PS4 in JP
Well it's not exactly the same thing. If Rising 2 will use the touchpad properly the difference will be huge compared the sticks and incredibly more comfortable.

ghost in the shell future world seems way more interesting than frank anything

Thank Kojima, my lord and savior.
With platinum having more time to work in it I can only imagine how fucking amazing it's going to be.

Removing parrying is just as likely as removing zandatsu - it was the core of the entire combat system. Though perhaps better tutorials would be nice; it's really intuitive once it clicks, but the game doesn't initially help you approach it in the right way at all.
Raiden, Sunny, George, Rose, Little John and Bladewolf as a Super Sentai team is the ideal scenario for MGR2's protagonists.
I'm hoping for it to be a sequel as well - while Grey Fox is still the more popular character, following Raiden and the world established in the first game has so much more potential than trying to shoehorn in more retcons into Grey Fox's backstory so you can contrive a half-functional plot - Null fighting PW AIs in some inconsequential corner of the Cipher clusterfuck is a much less appealing prospect compared to a true sequel unburdened by the events of prior games.
Though the Area 51 scenario would still make a good tutorial - it's nowhere near substantial enough for a whole game, which would be subject to the same restraints as a prequel; but as a flashback sequence it's an interesting scenario that hasn't been fleshed out at all, which could also easily be tied into an original plot occurring after MGR1.
