https://www.gamesradar.com/games/metal-gear/metal-gear-solids-snake-actor-wants-konami-to-continue-the-series-even-if-hideo-kojima-isnt-involved/>Akio Otsuka, the Japanese voice for pretty much every Snake in the Metal Gear Solid series, has said Konami should release a new game in the series, even if Hideo Kojima isn't involved.>While David Hayter is synonymous with Snake for many, Otsuka perhaps has the most prolific run as the character in the series history. Not only did he – like Hayter – play Solid and Naked Snake, but he also provided the voice for Metal Gear Solid 2's Solidus Snake (played by John Cygan) and Metal Gear Solid 5's Venom Snake (played by Kiefer Sutherland). >In fact, the only time Otsuka didn't play Snake in the series was Big Boss' appearance in Metal Gear Solid 4, where he was fittingly played by Chikao Otsuka – the actor's father.>Otsuka previously said that he was not interested in returning to the series if Kojima wasn't somehow involved, but appears to have changed his mind. Speaking to Bunshun (translated via TheGamer), Otsuka admitted he made that comment due to a "sense of pride" for having worked with Kojima, but he thinks Konami should make a new Metal Gear game (https://bunshun.jp/articles/-/92246)>"There are Metal Gear fans all over the world, and they have been waiting patiently for it. So, for their sake, let’s make one more Metal Gear," Otsuka says, noting that since Kojima is "making his own games with Death Stranding, I think, 'Why not? It’s okay to do it.' That’s how I feel.">Otsuka would continue to collaborate with Kojima, providing the Japanese-dubbed voice for Die-Hardman, but when asked if he'd spoken to the director about collaborating again, Otsuka reportedly laughed, saying, "I'll leave that to your imagination." >Kojima is now working on Physint, his own Metal Gear spiritual successor
>>749121290Hopefully we will get more
>>749121290>Japanese voicewho gives a fuck
They wont. All they will do is remake 1 and 2 and that will take them 7 or 8 years. They wont make a new game and they wont remake the msx games.
>>749121290Based, the real Solid Snake speaks the truth
>guy wants to work and get more money
>>749121290>Japanese VAkek
I wouldn't mind the series going on but you'd have to bring on someone competent to make it or else you get MGS Survive.
>Guy who Kojima dropped urges studio that dropped Kojima to continue without KojimaWow, he wants to reprise his most famous role, what a shock
>>749121290>actor wants paycheckNot news.
>>749121290Anything Konami does to the series will probably end up being trash.
>>749121290>Man wants to retain his jobOh I'm sure, I can relate.
>>749121392>the real Solid Snake
>>749121524wrong one, surprisingly
>>749121290How is this news? He's just a voice actor.
>>749121359Kojima did, considering that he kept Otsuka around even after firing Hayter
>>749121590Kojima was capable of replacing Hayter he was unable to replace Akio
>>749121740>capable of replacing HayterHe always wanted to replace Hayter. If memory serves he had to audition for the role in 3 and 4.
>>749121290Konami suddenly releasing a new MGS that's better than Kojimbo's not-MGS would be kino
>>749121290>VA that only reads lines begs for jobHmm no, I think Metal Gear should stay dead. Given what Konami is doing with Silent Hill dead is far better.
>guy whose job depends on more games being made wants more games to be made so he can be employedMust be rough being japanese journalists and you can't talk about how jeets and muslims are raping your country to death so you have to pull this shit.
>>749121392Sorry but David Hayter giving up his paycheck for the sake of Twin Snakes getting made will forever cement him as not just the definitive Snake, but one of the most dedicated and authentic voice actors of all time
>>749122134If they release something it's going to be Unreal Engine 5 slop like the MGS3 remake and woke shit like those Silent Hill games they shat out.MGS should stay dead.
>>749122453>>749123085Konami actually STILL hasn't made a Silent Hill game yet. They always outsource to other developers. Not even Silent Hill f was developed by them. But the MGS3 remake WAS in fact developed by Konami, so I think an MGS revival would be different. Absolutely shit, but different from them just outsourcing to shitty underqualified studios like with Silent Hill
I'd really like to play Metal Gear 1 remake with modern graphics.
>>749121290The only thing Konami could do to interest me is a remake of MGSV with the original plot and expanding on the gameplay of what we got.
>>749121290metal gear solid is nothing without kojima. he's probably the greatest video game artist of all time.
>>749121359>>749121680That and it's a more canon voice if anything since Solid and Solidus are meant to have the same voice for mystery on if Solid Snake was leading Dead Cell or not to work.
>>749123557>metal gear solid is nothing without koji-ACK
>>749123669>2 hour long budget Bayonetta
>>749123737Sounds better than 2 hour cutscenes
>>749123349If they don't hurry they won't be able to capitalize even on that.With the leaked beta build of MGSV modders have already managed to load the Episode 51 cutscenes and load the map where you were meant to fight Chico.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iviRX0ZHXnMhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3mLokEu42lw
>>749121290No, more series like resident evil need to take a page from mgs and fucking stop.
>>749123795only if you're a faggot motherfucker who's too retarded for anything besides fortnite
>>749121524>Guy who Kojima droppedAkio Otsuka was in Death Stranding and is still on good terms with Kojima.
>>749121290Why is he still butthurt
>>749121290Otsuka has gone senileSad
>>749124534Not that guy.
>>749124284Yeah that's about the response I'd expect from a modern Kojima fan
>>749124284Why does the crow look zesty
>>749124284>calls anon a faggot>posts a faggot
>>749124610Everyone is waiting for a new game
Portable Ops had no kojima involvement, and you know what? While the gameplay was meh, the game neatly tied up and concluded The Boss saga. There is a very logical conclusion to that story, Big Boss gets over her, and everything is set up neatly for the MG1.Then PW and MGSV went completely retarded with bringing a ghost AI version of the boss and making the motivation of every character "the will of the boss", "the will of the boss" "the will of the boss" "the will of the boss" "the will of the boss". It's obnoxious, that dumbass character that got played like a pawn becomes the Jesus of the whole saga. As much as I like Kojima for many reasons, he really needs someone else to write his shit. Death Stranding 1 was so atrocious and cringe worthy, I never even bothered to play DS2 despite owning the physical of every MGS game. I would be totally fine with a MGS without Kojima.Make Yoko Taro write it, there. Everything would just work out.
>>749125726Write what? The story is over, hell, we didn't even need MPO, PW or MGSV, MGS3 was enough for Big Boss
>>749121290Why is this series the only one where fucktard faggots cant let go that the "creator" isn't part of it anymore? Resident Evil morons love the shitty series ever since Mikami left and eat up every release since
>>749121290>dubwho cares
>>749122794>guy whose job depends on more games being made wants more games to be made so he can be employedI mean, Ootsuka doesn't need MG, he's one of the most employed older male VAs in the industry currently.From 2026 alone he currently has pic related, and he has reoccurring roles in several TV anime as made obvious here.He just likes voicing Snake.
>>749121290Sorry Hayter but no MGS is Kojima. Just make a new game because people will hate a new MGS without Kojima. It could be a great game and people would still hate it.
>>749126234>>749122794Forgot pic.
>>749126057The story is over. It's been over since MGS4 with PW and V just spinning their wheels. I understand you have no standards and want a new game no matter what right now but it isn't just because Kojima and his entire team left. Maybe someone else could make a new stealth action IP instead?
