He's not even a bad character at all, everyone seems to hate him for the wrong reason.
I wholeheartedly agree. I mean, they didn't just replace Snake with Raiden because they felt like it, he did go with the story of the game, and it's not like he didn't have a great personal arc, as well. Anyway, I liked Raiden. He was a little different than Snake (with the flips and random-ninjutsu stuff he could pull, which was far from CQC tactics), but he was still an important role in the story, and I don't even think he was misplaced at all.
