What is the consensus around here on Kojima? Is he a hack, is he a genius? What's the verdict here?

He's a genius hack.
mediocre film maker stuck in video game business. the only reason mgs is considered kino is because the bar is so incredibly low.
he's a traveling snake oil salesman who sells t-shirts and merch for the game that doesn't even exist beside it's couple of trailers and the only people who saw it is his celebrity dickriders and his exclusive personal interviewer Dorito Pope with fucked up sad St. Bernard dog eyes
I don't have any opinions on him having never played his games but he comes off as extremely arrogant when he puts his name on everything like he was the sole creator and video games are just something he snaps into existence and not multi year projects involving 50+ people
I hate the people making cosplays and obsessing over Death Stranding. Game isn’t even fucking out yet. Reminds me of the “Biggest Earthbound fan finally plays Earthbound”
easiest way to find a retard is to see someoen who calls mgs movie game, each one is so full technology and gameplay innovations its crazy, even mgs5 with the worst story had kino gameplay
He's a narcissistic retard who makes voice actors call him a god. Literally delusional.
He's based
wasnt there some film festival where we get to see more Death Stranding?
what "kino" gameplay
it's by far the worst in the series it's piss easy unless your force yourself to use OSP mods on PC and even then it's so fucking easy
MGS2 and 3 are 10 times harder
I think you're mistaking low input delay between actions with """gameplay"""
He had a pretty succesful career, but his fans are emotion-driven millennials who accuse him of always delivering unfinished games because MGSV was unfinished, and constantly make baseless accusations about him based on nothing but the fact that they didn't like MGSV. You know, like a bunch of hysterical teenagers.
They also claim that DS is going to be shit because it looks like a movie, despite praising MGS1, 2 and 3.
Overall, you shouldn't bother listening to Yea Forums's opinions, they are worthless and are never reflected on the industry.
>video games are just something he snaps into existence and not multi year projects involving 50+ people
And yet you are the same people who say that if he's not working in his games, then no progress is done at all.
You just a bunch of self-contradicting kids.
Then again, you need the mentality of a 5 year old to unironically think the story of MGS games are good, when even Kojima thinks they are stupid and has grown to hate them.
YOOOOOOOOOOOONG OUT
What do you guys think of Kojima's top ten films of 2015?
Ah yes, yongyea, another guy like Kojima who Kojimadrones ate up and then after MGSV came out, after spending 2 years spamming his shit, now you pretend you always hated him in the obnoxious form of spamming hourly threads about him and spending four years trying to turn him into a meme.
This is exactly why anything MGS, Kojima or Death Stranding related should be banned from Yea Forums, what remains of the MGS fanbase has gone from being the most cringeworthy fanbase in Yea Forums to the biggest bunch of autistic shitposters.
MGS drones need to be put down like the dogs they all are.
The general in /vg/ died, might as well finish off what remains of them.
>Shaun the Sheep
Holy BASED
This
The cutscenes in 4 are literally longer than the actual game, doesn't matter how good the gameplay is its the definition of a movie game
>co-directed by Uwe Boll
kojima is the best designer in the business, he's like Peter molynuex but with a memory and a budget.
he's a fucking hack, look at how the best MGS games had a co-writer... and he left after MGS3.. now ask yourself how the story and writing of MGS4, PW and TPP are..
go ahead, I'll wait.
You know he's had a co-writer for every game?
he had a co-writer on mgs1-3 that would tell him to fuck off with his bullshit and reigned him in. mgs4 on were sycophantic yes men.
death stranding will suck, enjoy your 6 hour walkng simulator + movie, brainlet
Something in the middle of those. He's a very talented game designer who was fed fantasies of filmmaking along the way, which completely ruined his output. Also the brunt of what made the MG series shine cannot be put on him completely. Konami had some insanely talented people during the 90's and early 2000's working on those games and other series.
Piss off with your Fukushima meme, it's been confirmed than the guy only wrote some of the codec conversation
>all this MGS4 hate
But Ocelot was at his best here
I applaud his attempts to do interesting things with game design but the execution is almost always lacking. He's a fucking awful hack writer and he mostly poorly rehashes the works of far more talented people. He hasn't gotten worse, like some people think, he just now has the budget and autonomy for a lot more self indulgence.
He worked on the codecs and the screenplay
>and codecs and the screenplay
this. Kojima is an idea man, he's a shit writer. He's the video game equivalent of George Lucas. George is great for coming up with ideas and stories, but his writing is shit.
this
mgs IS a movie game, that's the whole problem.
Overrated, but doesn't mean he doesn't make great games. Calling someone a genius is just a bit too much.
Every MGS has shit writing. Even the writing of Kojima's pre-MGS games is of similar quality, which just shows that these co-writers barely matter.
nobody who dislikes him has anything to say other than "he's weird" and "his games not out yet."
peep a David Lynch movie, read Understanding Comics, and you'll get why he's such a different storyteller. he's a master of manipulating tropes and genres into his own unique space that nobody else can replicate - have you ever even seen anybody try? I think that's what makes him so cool.
>the bar is so incredibly low.
yeah. but i'm pretty sure mgs1 could have made a good action movie. it's not worse than capeshit
you understand this comment was more cringeworthy than anything a kojima fan has ever posted right? I can straight up tell you had the asbergers adrenaline kick in halfway through from the way you typed that out. come on, man.
Don't forget the holy buzzwords "hack" and "walking simulator"
Silent Hills would have redeemed him in my eyes but he just couldn't help himself
death stranding IS silent hills
even using OSP mods it is piss fucking easy because the stealth is a fucking joke. huge wide open areas with a max of 2 guards patrolling long sections, easy as fuck to sneak in without even doing anything. they are often blind as a bat and there are a total of maybe 3 cameras in the ENTIRE GAME...
ground zeroes was actually the good gameplay one, since the area was tightly crafted, had enemies everywhere on patrol routes and cameras all over the place like classic MGS. add to the fact that you couldn't just tranq people and abuse fulton recovery memes or just leave them in the middle of nowhere like in TPP AND to extract people you had to literally carry/transport them to your helicopter for extraction..
ground zeroes is fucking great
the phantom pain is fucking dog shit
"Hack" is not a buzzword when used in reference to Kojima. The word is slang for a writer who produces sloppy derivative work. Kojima plagiarizes extensively and has done so his entire career. It's appropriate to call him a hack.
Hasn't produced a good game in over a decade now, appears to have lost all sense of dignity and respect for the medium so now he just seems to want to make films.
I love metal gear
I have zero doubt in my mind I could kick the fucking shit out of Kojima. The man looks like a fucking pansy.
Like he wouldn't even put up a fight, he'd just be sat in his office one day ching chonging away contentedly to himself and i'd just boot the fucking door right off the hinges. He'd give out a little startled shriek like a frightened bird and try to run for it but I'm too quick and I grab him by his scrawny little neck and just start punching him as hard as I can in the kidneys while tears stream down his face.
It stands to reason that there would be security, but because it's Japan, it would just be a bunch of child sized gnomes in comically oversized security uniforms, blowing their whistles at me trying to grab hold of my legs while I grab Kojima by the ankles and turn him upside down to shake his Milk money out of his pockets.
Then I'd give his pathetic security a noogie and a wedgie apiece then turn back to that skinny little runt Kojima the final humiliating blow...a double wet Willy.
Kojima if you're reading this I'm fucking coming for you.
Cute.
>fedex simulator is silent hills
Lol, nope. Silent Hills was bound to be good with Junji Ito and Del Toro on board. Death Stranding is just a Kojimbo's fever dream completely fueled by sony.
Makes great games and makes Yea Forums seethe.
seething
Why is raccoon city there twice?
MGS2 and 3 are masterpieces but the later games are utter trash and so was MGR until Platinum bailed him out
He's a dude who's had some good ideas. A lucky dude with a bloated ego who struck gold, and so his ego inflated even more after becoming extremely over-hyped and overpraised.
Compared to Detroit, would it be safer to head to silent hill? Or racoon city?
So both games starring Reedus and being based on multiverses is just a coincidence
think bro
Unless you've done something completely fucked up in your past, Silent Hill would be the less dangerous. But then again, you could get caught in the middle of some cult bullshit like the latter games or the movie.
Wait, what? Silent Hills would use multiverses? DS uses multiverses? Source me up.
dude... kojima is a genius
this one time he like.. broke the fourth wall
woah...
and and this other time he like predicted that the internet would be important... fuuuck it did become important dude...
HACK
everything he makes is just a reference of a movie he saw and he is like "duuuuuuude I gotta add this shit in my next game." fucking westaboo
Which would you prefer to face? Your personal demons manifested into twisted monstrosities that reflect a facet of your personal life? Or niggers?
god i wish that was me
I like how he talked about the military being like, big, woah.
but user you already are a beta
I want to marry Meryl Silverburgh
cringe
I concur
Glory hog and hack. He's only known because he takes credit for everything and puts his name in big letters on his games.
> thong instead of cotton panties
big cringe
she was raped by ocelot, the thong represent the lost of innocence
That flaming faggot only wants BB to rape him
He dreamed of BB while doing it
(((Silverburgh)))
someone should make a clown edit
