Fukushima only wrote optional CODEC calls. Kojima created the story and did overall game design/level design, and wrote every actual line of dialogue you see in every cutscene and mandatory CODEC call for those games. Fukushima had influence sure, but I think people vastly overestimate it. Based on the quality of writing in Snake Tales, Ghost Babel, and Ac!d 1 I think the writing in MGS1-3 would have been much better than it is if Fukushima had a stronger voice in the script. Based on all the actual information we have it seems he had a much smaller role than people assume.
Hell, concept artist Yoji Shinkawa might have had more influence on the stories of MGS games than Fukushima. Shinkawa created the Deepthroat character, made Snake young in MGS1 instead of being in his mid-50s like Kojima originally planned, aged Meryl uo instead of having her be 14, and made Otacon thin instead of a fat nerd always eating chocolate.
I, for one, am glad Kojima took full-control of the series again so he could move away from the boring samey Cold War aesthetic, and give us more spreadsheets, Mikubots, and Jpop finales
Robots that fire nukes are evil. The TX-55 is one. Venom and Big Boss are unexcusably evil.
Jose Miller
What does this mean? Did some news come out involving these two and their contribution levels to the games?
Matthew Foster
What does Kojima have to do with Metal Gear Survive?

>Ghost Babel and Ac!d 1 those both have dogshit writing that just have all the regular stupid MGS bullshit twists turned up to 11 to the point that they're retarded in a nonsensical and annoying way I'll give you Snake Tales though

MG1 = Metal Gear, the MSX game MGS = Metal Gear Solid 1
Chase Morgan
Someone asked if he got anything to do with that zombie fest action game. He said "I got nothing to do with that" while laughing
Jackson Miller
>He thinks Metal Gear started with Solid.
Jordan Harris
Shit. You must be a real oldfag I thought only zoomers came to complain about kojima
Ryan Gomez
Yes. But the thread is full of shills spelling Metal Gear without the Solid just because that was removed for the new game
Asher Clark
Or maybe he is a real fan of the series.
Colton Reed
Do you have a source? Kojima is not a writter,he is a creative director,he comes up with the backbone(plot,setting,characters) but the rest it's the up to his coworkers to do.
Jordan Russell
Hes the first real butthurt fan I see on this board who actually has an argument
