Why did Snake age so fast?
Solid Snake’s accelerated aging was a result of intentional genetic changes made during the Les Enfants Terribles cloning process, which aimed to create the perfect soldier by replicating Big Boss‘ genetic material, but with a built-in expiration date to prevent his genes from being used as a weapon in the future. The accelerated aging process was further exacerbated by the presence of nanomachines in his body, which were designed to break down his physical health over time, ultimately leading to his premature aging.
The Cloning Process and Its Consequences
The Les Enfants Terribles project was a secret government experiment that aimed to create the perfect soldier by cloning Big Boss, a renowned special forces operative. The project resulted in the creation of three clones: Solid Snake, Liquid Snake, and Solidus Snake, each with their own unique characteristics and genetic modifications.
