Kojima is a good producer and quality manager when on a tight leash, but left to his own devices, he starts going full retard.He was being tard-wrangled hard at Konami. He worked as part of a team, and his obsession with movies added that extra flavor to the games. But now that he has full control over the production, all he does is make barren movie games with gameplay as an afterthought, vicariously living out his movie director inferiority complex. He has also gone full woke, crawling at holyjew celebs' feet for a shadow of a chance to direct a movie.There's nothing worse than a "creative person" that doesn't have to answer to anyone.
He should apologize to Konami so they give him mgs 6
>>730889195Death Stranding 2 has more pure gameplay than anything Konami has published in the last decade (no, rereleases do not count)
>>730889271I don't want that. That's like asking for more Indiana Jones movies
Kojima is at his best when he goes full retard though
>>730889295I see you don't argue with OPs points, because they're right regardless of the thing you just said
>>730889295dumb oomer
>>730889195Right about what? they fired him to make pachinko and mobile slop and then they changed their mind and started remaking his old shit
>>730889518I am arguing the gameplay point. Thats the only one I'm arguing as yes Kojima is annoying as fuck the story sucked ass in DS2 but the gameplay sandbox is actually great. Do you have an argument to that nigger?
reminder no one knows what actually happened in 2015
>>730889295This but unironically.
>>730889271>another MGS game under KojimaBarring peace walker, the last few games have been trash ass games that are awful middle fingers to fans. No thank you. I heard he once had an idea to make a prequel about The Boss. If vocal parasites is anything to go off by, I don’t wanna imagine how much he’d ruin her backstory.
>>730889295>Death Stranding 2>GameplayRetard.
If Konami was so right about Kojima, then how come they haven't made any other fucking games since he left? If theyre so smart and good at managing talent, wheres the work to prove this? The industry didn't stop when he left, only their production came to a grinding halt. No, pachinko machines and Bomberslut characters are not video games.
>>730889931>Hasn't played itClassic /v/
>>730890086MGSV went over budget and they needed to make up for it by going into pachinko.
>>730889195You're wrong and retardedIt's not that he was always a hack, it's just that with age every genius turns into oneHe's 60, well into his enhackeningFace it, every great author, director, auteur, whatever turns into a turd as they get old, it's just the nature of this universe we live in

>>730889791No barring Peace Walker, it was shit too. MGS3 was the last good Metal Gear.
>>730889791>Barring peace walker, the last few games have been trash ass games that are awful middle fingers to fans.Good I'm tired of 'fans' ruining every fucking IP with their bitching and complaining. Every legendary creator. George Lucas, Spielberg, Hitchcock, miyamoto etc all have gone on record by saying they made the art that THEY want to make. Nowadays creators and artists make shit for fans which end up being shit. Which is why the new generations across multiple industries are no where close to those who came before them
>>730891289>make shit >it gets called shit>um actually chud it's ok because i wanted to make shit
>>730890418 That’s cope and you know it. MGSV didn’t go over budget-it sold gangbusters and still got chopped mid-development because Konami was already pivoting to mobage and gym memberships. Kojima was the scapegoat when the suits didn’t know what to do with a world-class dev team beyond slapping Snake onto a slot machine.
>>730891414>Game I don't like is shit because I said soThis is what people have been saying since Death Stranding and it's still a non-argument.
>>730889271Snake is confirmed dead on both mgs 4 and mg:r. There's no story left to tell. >Inb4 m-muh epilogueEven big boss confirmed snake only has a few months to live.
>>730891653We're talking about Metal Gear, sweetie
>>730889195ok but why did you post joakim mogren?
>>730891848Ok so can you explan why MGS post-3 was somehow terrible?
>>730891289I agree with you. Problem is, as a fan of Raiden and MGS2, I don’t like how Kojima shat on their characters to spite and pander to fans who wouldn’t get the point to begin with. A majority of the people who gave MGS4 10/10’s back in the day were the same people bitching about Raiden and no solid snake. I’m glad you brought up George Lucas and Star Wars, because MGS4 is a game that embodies all the worst aspects of the sequel trilogy into one.
>>730891838>Snake is confirmed dead on both mgs 4 and mg:rnot truego listen to the dialogues mentioning snake, they are really vague. and also big boss doesn't give an exact frame of reference for how long snake had left.
>>730892109Not if your defense of it is going to be>it's supposed to be that way! he made the game he wanted to make! I'll just let MGS4 speak for itself https://youtube.com/watch?v=n3J8X2ycF6Y
