# Such A Lust For Revenge 'Such a Lust For Revenge' is a line delivered by antagonist Skull Face in the 2015 stealth game Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain, mocked online for its cheesy voice acting. Metal Gear fans latched onto it days before the game's launch, turning it into a running joke and remix bait alongside another infamous MGS V line, 'They Played Us Like A Damned Fiddle!' ## Origin Skull Face's monologue is part of a cutscene in Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain, developed by Kojima Productions and published by Konami on September 1, 2015. The scene itself was uploaded to YouTube on August 30, 2015 by channel eller1618 as the source clip before the game had officially launched worldwide[2]. The mockery started before release. Three days before launch, on August 29, 2015, posters in an MGS General thread on 4chan's /v/ board flagged the line and began joking about the delivery[1]. A second /v/ thread the same day paired Skull Face with an 'If You See This Image While Scrolling' template, seeding the character as a Metal Gear in-joke ahead of the game's arrival[6][3]. - **Platform:** Metal Gear Solid V (source), 4chan /v/ and YouTube (viral spread) - **Creator:** Unknown - **Date:** 2015 ## Overview 'Such a Lust For Revenge,' also called 'Who?!,' is a line barked by the villain Skull Face during a lengthy monologue in Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain, voiced by James Horan[3]. The joke lives in the delivery: Skull Face screams 'WHO?!' in a way fans found so hammy it flipped the scene from menacing to unintentionally funny[2]. That reception mirrored the earlier ridicule of 'They Played Us Like A Damned Fiddle!' from MGS V: Ground Zeroes, giving the Metal Gear community a second Kojima line to endlessly quote back at each other[3]. Most of the meme output takes the form of YouTube remixes, where the 'WHO' scream gets synced to unrelated music or looped into absurdity. The best-known early edits paired the monologue with The Who's 'Who Are You?' and with the game's own 'Sins of the Father' theme[4][5]. The line also circulates as a plain quote reaction on 4chan and forum threads whenever anyone asks a question that starts with 'who,' making it a running gag inside the Metal Gear fandom rather than a broad mainstream image macro[1]. ## How to Use Fans typically drop the 'WHO?!' clip in response to any sincere 'who' question in a chat, comment section, or forum thread. The common remix convention is to sync Skull Face's scream to a song's chorus or to loop it back-to-back with the 'They Played Us Like A Damned Fiddle!' line for maximum Kojima-dialogue chaos. ## Frequently Asked Questions ### What is Such A Lust For Revenge?
