Holy based Kojima

I suspected this.I bet Kojima productions is just Kojima + Yoji Shinkawa + figure heads.Kojima does everything

I sometimes wish for Death Stranding to flop immensely just so we can see the spectacular drop that's going to be Kojima's fall from grace ASAP.

I guess all those rumors about him glory hogging advancements made during MGSV and Peace Walker were true

The battle gear in MGSV shows why Kojima shouldn't have all the power.
They never got the actual thing put into the game. But they still left the cutscene that introduces it in the game. The game's development must have been a directionless mess.

but tpp is the best mgs game by far

It's weird to me how Western video game developers are typically against the idea of acknowledging a central figure in a project. Even Warren Spector himself is quoted as saying he doesn't like being referred to as the mind behind Deus Ex and that it was a team effort.

Yes, of course big budget video games are a collaborative effort that take many talented people to make, but a strong vision for a game comes from a singular mind. I don't see how it's so horrible for the person in charge to be making calls about the game. They're not making the art, or tuning the feel of shooting or running or hitting the shuttlecock or whatever the game about, but they are likely there, at every step of the process, saying "I like this, I don't like that. I want this part to feel more this way." Not all games need to be made this way, but it's not a meritless method, either.

That said, Kojima's enormously unearned ego is a joke and Death Stranding doesn't look fun.

I think it's more criminal because you can see they obviously had a good groundwork with GZ. It played beautifully with everyone of snake's tools available there.

But even back in the E3 days you can see how so much of the game seemed to be flipped around or redone that I'm thinking the missions were being made as Konami was cutting power to the studio.

There are always people that go spastic whenever you say that Undertale is Toby Fox's game, because he got some help with some shit.

If you're a writer you read books. If you're a director, you watch films.

Neither of those are anymore or less time consuming than playing a single game for inspiration.

If he did we probably wouldn't have heli intros and outros for every fucking thing in MGSV.

Are you aware Kojima was prohibited to even have direct contact with the MGSV's team for the last 6 months before his resign?

Because much of game development is a team effort. And it looks good for everyone professionally when they receive due credit for what they do while part of the team.

I mean when we talk about Doom we don't just talk about Romero and end it there.

It's not so much the same as when you have a writer/director who is basically the guy behind the movie and everything happening is mostly because of his every decision.

But you look at Kojima Productions, run by Kojima, and I'm pretty sure it looks like a writer-director ordering faceless code monkeys around everywhere.

maybe he shouldn't have taken so fucking long to make it then

>I mean when we talk about Doom we don't just talk about Romero and end it there.
I mean, most people really only talk about Romero and Carmack.

Yes, because they knew the game would never release if they let him meddle with it any further.

This is wrong. There is no rules. A lot of best filmmakers were for example artists. That doesn't mean you need to be artist if you want to be great filmmakers.

If you were hired to help build a house with other people, would you think it's fair that the guy who had the idea of what the house should look like got all the credit?

Did you mean for this analogy to blow up in your face? Because architects are ALWAYS credited for their designs. No one is talking about the contractors that poured the concrete at Falling Water, but everyone knows the name Frank Lloyd Wright.

Literally Kojima

Doesn't he watch movies all the time though?

>Because much of game development is a team effort.
Team will not work without vision. You can have best everything but all of them have own vision and ideas.

He's like an auteur filmmaker.

The guy who was hammering nails doesn't matter because he can easily be replaced, the intellectual genius behind the design can't, sorry if this makes you feel bad.

If there's any rule to improve your craft, it's look at what other people do. What they do right and what they do wrong.

Other people sure as fuck don't have me in a heli at the start of EVERY GOD DAMN MISSION with a fucking credits roll spoiling the mission to boot. Not even a cutscene but a mandatory heli ride for boredom's sake. I always stop myself from replaying MGSV when I think of that shit. Same thing happens with MP3 and it's cutscenes.

Bro...

>Team will not work without vision. You can have best everything but all of them have own vision and ideas.

A leader without competent doers is just an idea guy posting on Yea Forums.

He really should just go make films because he hasn't made a fun game since MGS.

Nah Kojima will not work in movies. The concept that some anons believes about "go make movies fuck cutscenes" is flawed. Games are unique. They can allow what movies don't allow. There is player interaction in story.

even the "Old Masters" consumed the art form they revolutionized. They didn't just exist in an artless void and had ideas spring fully-formed from the aether.

Go take this hippy shit with you.

You're spitting on the efforts of these actual creators who grew up and learned the craft in the shadows of their masters and actually did something different with it. Nobody is just farted out a vagina able to sculpt a David or film a Shining. You're shitting on the efforts these people went through their entire lives to turn talent into skill.

It's a rule and the best piece of advice you can give to anyone seeking to improve in literally anything.

Will he take the blame if the game is widely panned?

>There is player interaction in story.

But Kojima's pride and joy is his hollywood shit anyways. Half the time in MGS4 I was sitting with the control out of my hands, and he clearly wanted MGS5 to be grander and more cinematic in scope.

If he wants to work with real actors and direct real films, then he can easily go and do that and have the same audience he has now.

probably not

This isn't worth considering because I promise you it won't be panned. Outside of Yea Forums, it'll be a smash hit regardless of its actual quality. It's a big budget game that has been hyped by games media for the better part of a decade at this point. It will come out to rave reviews, declarations of "a new chapter in video games," and so on. The general audience will buy it because it's a title they recognize as being hyped by said games media, play it for a week or so and say "yeah it was fine" and move on to the next big product. The game will be a financial and critical success purely because it's a big name and most people really don't care about anything beyond buying the next big game.

Meanwhile, 6 autists on Yea Forums will spend the next 5 years impotently making 9 threads a day about it, calling Kojima a hack, which might be entirely true, but it won't change the fact that it simply isn't possible for this game to fail.

if you don't believe me, screenshot this post and check my veracity when the time comes.

Yes that’s all true, but on the scale of an unfinished game, that’s insane

They're were very limited to even call it consumption.

also comparing military command to video game development is asinine.

So Kojima doesn't do anything audio-related. Got it.

Kojima was prancing around claiming he'd created a new genre. When he revealed what he thought made it a new genre, everyone realized it was just Dark Souls. He is now backpedaling.

Destiny, Anthem and Fallout 76 were all AAA games from big studios with giant amounts of hype and advertising that were received really poorly by game journos and general public alike.

>You are with the attitude you've been showing, going on about some inner artistry that just conquers all in your path.
I'm more likely have problems to convey a thought. It's more like not only study masters but life around. Your own experience. Look at Old Masters sketches. They did studies they were inspirational for them of other artists but mostly it's real life studies. You don't need anything to learn how to draw. Just look around

Fallout 4 was also trash and unfinished, and it still got more acclaim than TPP.

It only got acclaim because it was a critical darling's game and the "finale" to well beloved series. Take into account the break up with Konami of course it was gonna get inflated scores. That doesn't mean anything when the game got discounted right quick and has been free on every platform.

Alright, I can agree with that in spirit.

Outside choosing the music and directing the voice actors seems like it.

>now
Why now? Check archives from 90s forums. Games were already shit back then.

Kojima is a hack fraud and all kojima drones deserve the rope, genuinely and unironically off yourself if you like one of his "games", you are a plague upon this industry

So DSP was right about Kojima doing everything on every game, lmao.

Destiny currently is doing better than ever, both financially and critically, but lets talk about the other ones. EA, Bioware, and Bethesda are pretty much the developers with the least remaining goodwill of any in the Western scene. Even normal people know that EA makes quickly squeezed out diarrhea for the sake of monetization before gameplay, and Bethesda's incompetence is their primary trait.

Comparatively, Kojima is still considered some kind of rainman artistic mastermind who works outside the mainstream, and especially so because of the Konami controversy. Kojima was viewed as the little auteur that could, being pushed around by the big greedy Pachinko men. Context matters.

Look at this faggot here thinking all generals aren't just idea guys that were pinned with medals in the womb.

i didn't read this thread. has anyone pointed out yet that his tweet is poorly translated?

Yea Forums memes about Todd aside, Bethesda is honestly one of the better western devs. Morrowind, Skyrim, Oblivion, Fallout 3, and Fallout 4 were all genuinely good games and they are one of the last few studios still willing to make huge AAA WRPGs, which are pretty much a dying genre. Fallout 4 was less of a WRPG and more of an open world open-ended shooter with RPG elements, I'll give you that, but it achieved what it set out to do, and the economy and settlement building system was great. Oblivion also was a great RPG with a unique and dynamic NPC system who would go around their own daily lives, close up shop, work the vineyard, sleep in their bed at night, or travel the world as merchants. Yes both Oblivion and Fallout 3 had massive game-breaking bugs and glitches, but Bethesda seems to have iron out this aspect of their games with later titles. Fallout 76 was uniquely bad and far below their standard, I'm not sure why that happened, but I'm guessing because it was rushed and lacked vision.

Bioware also used to be a great studio until they were purchased by EA and are now essentially dead. I'm sure they massively regret letting themselves be bought like that.

I don't like actors masturbation too. Prefer original characters. But it's unavoidable with mocap and realistic graphics probably . Actors are good for promotion too.

Are you seriously implying that Yea Forums wasn't WAY up Oblivion's butt for like a decade? You are the newest of all newfags.

Yea Forums is more than one person

Fallout 4 was like Hitman Absolution. A fun game in it's own right, but a poor entry for the genre of the series. Nevertheless, I thought the story was somewhat interesting up until you discover the institute, then it goes completely downhill from there. Which is interesting because from that point they had tried hard to replicate New Vegas.

I think if they had stayed true to Fallout 3 rather than try to emulate New Vegas, it would have turned out much better. And I thought the settlement mechanic was fun

Kojima has a big ego but he don't steal others credits, the others people should use more twitter too and stop being a nobody no one care to search the name even when it's avaliable.

People need to stop punishing artists for being artists. If Kojima disappearing up his own ass means I get more kino, idgaf what he says on twitter

I'm sure no one really gives a fuck about creators and want just to shit on DS. Like do you even watch credits? Read them? No way. Unless for shitposting like in DS3 b/c/f/team. In all good JP games directors matters. Or like how everyone was hyped about DMCV and Itsuno.

Except it doesn't have awful level design, unless you're one of those fuckers who thinks the jungle part in-between the bases where the actual gameplay happens is somehow badly designed. What the fuck do you want? It's just a fucking desert.
As for the bases, most of them are on par with Camp Omega.

hahahahaha kamiya is so fucking based. oh my god. stupid insect game testers. blocked.

you can just walk out of bases with zero consequences and reset the encounter less any kills you've already made. It removes all tension from the game.

Ground Zeroes showed that a tight confined level with minimal exits could absolutely work with the mechanics, and work excellently, but for some reason they decided to throw it out in favor of dozens of escape vectors and tiny aggro leashes on enemies.

Both Witcher 3 and Fallout are worse games, so I don't know what your argument is. Game critics are tasteless as fuck and game award shows are just as bad as Oscarshit/emmys.

It would be hysterical if the game ended up bombing but I feel like they're just going to brute force the advertising as hard as possible and normbletons will buy in droves because tv told them to.

Witcher 3 absolutely isn't worse than MGSV, but the best game to come out in 2015 was Bloodborne and that got even less awards than MGSV

How do you explain the retardation which isn't present in those 3 boards? I'm pretty sure /g/ doesn't confuse RAM with fucking hard drives, which some people in this board do seem to believe.

No, it got acclaim because it is a genuinely great game on almost all fronts except story, where every single MGS game shits the bed.

Hideo Kojima is one of the most famous people in video games and it stars Norman Reedus, one of the most famous men in television.
They barely even have to advertise it.

Witcher 3 is a terrible, terrible game user.
I agree with Bloodborne though.

But somehow Kojima is the egomaniac

Hahahaha Yea ForumsNEETs and Twatterfags getting assblasted that producers and directors rightfully get the majority of the credit.
All of the individual talent in the world is pointless if there isn't an individual, or a small group of individuals, whose sole purpose is to lead the project and give it well purposed intentions and direction.

Kojima gets involved on more aspects of the game creation process, If Murata or any of the other nips get mad and want their name up in that "a game by" label, they probably should work more than one role as well

Why didn't he RT the dozen ran

Kojima retweets almost anything whether they have Jojo powers or not. Might even just be a bot that retweets anything with set words in the tweet.

Load up youtube and look it yourself, I'm not spoonfeeding you 50 screenshots

lol please someone remaster that old /pol/ muh ancestors meme with Kojima looking at a giant screen of code someone else wrote and add the caption "I made this"

Hideo and Kojima write the code, story, design, production, marketing, art, he does everything.

Konami was 100% correct in locking this man in a back office and never allowing him near the dev teams.

Kojima has an ego on par with Donald Trump. I so hope Death Stranding will flop, forcing this hack into retirement or go back to suck Konami's cock.

I followed Kojima on twitter and my feed was literally 2/3 Kojima posting about his lunch or retweeting every movie trailer and/or poster known to man

>one of the most famous men in television.
These people are allowed to breed, let that sink in.

Don't western game companies fire all their devs as soon as their game is done? They don't have any fucking room to talk.

What rumours?

I feel uneasy thinking about this whole thing. Does Kojima really think people see MGS as this deep and complex, original, meaningful philosophical work? People like it because it's like The Room or JoJo or even Deadly Premonition. Absolutely ridiculous yet lovable cheese.

There are moments when he seems vaguely aware of that, like when he implements urine mechanics in his quadruple-A games, but he just seems to take himself so seriously most of the time

Yes it is you retard. To believe just Kojima and only Kojima sells a game based on his name alone, is fucking retarded especially when his last 2 games were ass.

>good job guys, it was a team effort and everyone did great, congrats! :)
>now get the fuck out of here

Damage control. This doesn't sound out of character at all for Kojima.

>Does Kojima really think people see MGS as this deep and complex, original, meaningful philosophical work?
No. Most interviews Kojima did about MGS are things about it being a cool action fun.

Maybe he's just having fun.
Who gives a shit as long as you like what you got, not everyone needs to be able to write a 100 page thesis on shit they enjoy

>Does Kojima really think people see MGS as this deep and complex, original, meaningful philosophical work?
That's what his fans say about it all time.

Uh yes, that's exactly what being a director means.
The fact that Yea Forumsedditors are so surprised at this shows how little Yea Forums knows about videogame development.
Then again, you are the same brain damaged morons who went on to say you wanted more "Fox Engine gameplay".

Not at all.
He even said that MGS2, that game that stupid pretentious retards in here think is a "post modern masterpiece" is just a bunch of anime and 80s action movie tropes thrown together, and that the story of a videogame just needs to be interesting enough to keep you playing.

It's Yea Forums the retards who think that MGS is the LOTR of videogames or some shit, even though Kojima has never made a single attempt at keeping a stable canon, retconning shit in pretty much every entry.

Trifecta of based

>finale
No it wasn't, it was a prequel.
See, this is what I don't get about you MGSfags.
You obviously only care about the plot, you never gave a shit about the gameplay, and yet you are so fucking stupid that you actually, unironically thought that MGSV would be an ending, even though the fucking franchise ended with MGS4.

MGSfags are, by far, the most stupid and brain damaged fanbase i've ever seen, I swear you wouldn't be able of understanding even the plot of a fucking Call of Duty campaign without speculating for months, only for a Youtuber to explain it to you in a 4 hour long video.

MGSfags are the worst fanbase you can have if you are making anything related to the plot because they both claim they want good, smart writing, and at the same time they just want cheap fanservice.

With this, I think that Kojima made the best possible choice with MGSV, which was just shelving the plot to tapes and having one cutscene every 20 hours of gameplay, you are not worth pandering to, you are just way too stupid.

>afraid to get laughed at
lol

not him but it was clearly lauded as the final piece of the puzzle that will complete the whole story. You spent more time ragging on about how stupid MGSfags are than proving him wrong, you sound like a schizo

What's the point of the doing the same song and dance OVER OVER again?

Attached: 1565881701463.png (200x209, 63K)

For what reason does Yea Forums even hate him? Just mad fanboys? I just can't see how you can't like this man.

What puzzle?
You know exactly what happened, MGS3's ending is the final piece of that puzzle.
He was betrayed by the US government, became a mercenary and ended up trying to take them down.
This is another reason why MGSfags are, by far, the most stupid fanbase of all, you must be told everything, if something isn't straight up told to you in a line of dialogue, you don't know what happened.

I'll probably react by enjoying this highly successful and acclaimed game. Why would random shit I posted on Yea Forums affect whether I like a game once it releases?

They'll do the same thing they always do.
Pretend they don't even know it exists, and move on to the next game to shitpost.
These people don't actually base their negative opinions on anything other than knee jerk reactions and trying to pick and compare shit to things they don't like

Nothing will happen, cause I will be enjoying the game with BB on my lap

Because people were hyped over how much of an edgy movie MGSV was going to be and how much of an emo Big Boss was going to become and it ended up being a videogame not focused on the plot at all, which is how all videogames should be since videogames are a horrible storytelling medium.
Not that it's something bad because videogames were never meant to tell stories in the first place.

He became very popular. Also he makes Sony exclusives. Yea Forums hates both those things.

MUH TORTANIC though

>I just can't see how you can't like this man
egotism

>mgsfags blah blah blah
I’m not even an MGSfag you literal ESL nigger. You need to deal with that hate in a healthier fashion, you’re practically seething and looking for any excuse to rant about a fanbase that doesn’t care what you think lol.
It’s the final piece because it ties the MG games and explains how BB survived, there’s also shit for Solid. It’s inconsequential but it’s the last story thread that hasn’t been tied up yet.

Insist that it flopped and deny everything.
MGSV is the best selling MGS game and people today still say it flopped.

>it ties the MG games
So did MGS3.

>explains how BB survived
Nobody gave a single fuck about that.
Not that I can understand people who unironically eat up the lore of MGS.

>there’s also shit for Solid
Ah yes, we needed to know about his morning routine when he was a kid, what cookies he liked and all that, right?

Why do you think Yea Forums cares if a game sells well and gets praised by game journalists

>egotism
I don't think he is as egoistic as people make him out to be. Even if he would be he has the track record to back it up.

>"WOW KOJIMAS GAMES ARE MOVIES"
>proceed to talk exclusively about the plot of his games and judge them entirely based on the writing
What's with this larp of people here pretending to care about gameplay, and yet never discussing it?
Is it because MGS has had consistently garbage gameplay that nobody with a sane mind would put up with?

pretty simple, people who care about gameplay don't play his games, so you only get people who care about plot discussing them

Yet those same people whine about movies.
Did MGSV not having any plot give MGSfags brain damage?

Stop it OP had Yea Forums unironically agreeing with kotaku it was hilarious and you ruined it

“Wow you got it all user, you are such a smart and good boy! Do you want something in return?”
Is what you want me to say? Because legitimately, I don’t give a shit if you think MGS3 ended all plot lines in the series or how MG games didn’t need to be explained. You’re complaining about an inherent quality about Kojima where everything has to be explained whether it be about your controller or that gadget that you don’t use, it all has to be tied to a natural explanation. It’s called intrinsic storytelling or some shit. If you can’t accept that, then you’re going to be seething for a long time.

Cope. There's nothing without an idea.

Hideo does everything while Kojima just keeps exploiting him. What a sad end

Jesus christ you are seething like a little faggot

>It’s called intrinsic storytelling or some shit.
You know what's intrinsic storytelling?
Lord of the Rings, absolutely everything has an explanation and a backstory.
Telling you obnoxiously how some assault rifle works has nothing to do with that, it's just Kojima is addicted to reading Wikipedia articles about what he puts in his games, a waste of my time because it has nothing to do with the plot.
Not that I care much about it because the writing was consistently awful throughout the franchise.

> how MG games didn’t need to be explained
It didn't because it's all implied in MGS3's ending, you get why Big Boss did what he did it's just you are so stupid that you are the kind who needs to watch a Simpson episode several times to understand it.

why do you think they're the same people, it's generally nintendo fans who make fun of movie games

No it isn't, it's MGSfags who are mad that MGSV wasn't a movie.

I guess movie Directors are just idea guys?

I'm not, you just say I am because you know I'm right.
For Yea Forums the ideal scenario would be that Death Stranding gets cancelled and Kojima goes back to making linear MGS "games" where 80% of them are cutscenes.

Your laughable willingness at eating up that "Demon Edition" bullshit that was so obviously made in Yea Forums to the point where they claimed the legendary Fukushima came back to Konami shows how pathetic you are.

MGS is dead and will never come back, and the fact that you redditors are in so much denial makes it even better.

I enjoyed MGSV though, stop making assumptions.

Cringe

You might have, but even your kind just goes to say
>hey, the plot wasn't so bad
Which isn't the point, MGSV's biggest positive is shelving the plot to the side.

Every single time.

Yes because the idea of a videogame is what makes it sell or not.
If the idea isn't appealing, it won't sell.

MGSV still has tons of exposition and plot. Also there's still a whole lot of cutscene for a game.

Kamiya
Miyazaki
Miyamoto

Sakuri

The difference is that MGSV is a game you can easily play for 50 hours or even more.
In previous games those cutscenes were half the game.
Plus, no codec calls also helps.

Kojima is not a genius. I'd argue he's quite dumb. That is very evident anytime he's interviewed. Some people are not good at getting interviewed. But he seeks them out. He can't get enough of them. And he's constantly making an ass of himself. He is an ego stroking, well connected, talented salesman with some wacky ideas. He has an excellent support staff and knows how to delegate. You are correct that he was not replaceable though. The things he is good at are impossibly valuable (there is no understating that) and often get confused with genius. And honestly a person who knows how to surround themselves with the right people will produce something impressive. At least on a technical level. He's like a more cringey and less successful version of Steve Jobs.
