>Everyone, and most especially Anger Review Gamers, calls Kojima an out-of-touch pretentious hack because he said he "Invented a New Genre"
>He just said he wasn't sure what genre it is, like back in the day he just thought he was making Action Game then people called Metal Gear a Stealth Game
>Called Death Stranding a "Action Game, Social Strand Type"
>Lookup genre labels in Japan
>Mario isn't considered a "Platformer" just an "Action Game, Horizontal Screen Scroll Type"
>OG Donkey Kong arcade is "Action Game, Fixed Screen Type"
>Smash Bros is "Battle-Action" game
>Monster Hunter doesn't call itself an Action RPG, but rather a "Hunting Action" game
>Resident Evil actually fake-invented the genre "Survival Horror" when it's just an adventure game
>Like Snatcher and Policenauts which were adventure game/visual novels in the style of one of his two inspirations, Portopia, DS is a realistic 2019 equivalent of a platformer like his other inspiration, Mario, complete with all sorts of references including That One
>DS "Social Strand Action Game" Is just its own ver of Mario's "Horizontal Screen Scroll Action Game"

Everyone, and most especially Anger Review Gamers...
Game reviewers just want to attack him because Quiet was sexist. Quiet really made journalists angry.
How is Quiet different than all the other coombait women in all of his games. At least it's not Policenauts where you could grope every single female NPC
93
I don't know. Think she was just in a very big game at the right time to become a symbol for sexism they could use.
Because Kojima's excuse for why she can't wear clothes was fucking retarded, and his inability to just say "bruh i just want tits in the game i'm making" was laughable.
If you could actually understand what he was saying in total, he was talking about how the theme of MGSV is "RACE", differences between culture groups of humans, and that the intolerance of western games journalists for Quiet is like that.
DO NOT zoom in on retarded out of context shit boosted by clickbaiters you nimrod.
And he did say that. He said he tells Shinkawa to make every character look sexy as shit so the action figgys look cool
hes not a monster, hes just ahead of the curve
El Esteban Trabajos de los videojuegos
This is genuinely creepy
spacing-kun, a pretentious fuckwit as usual
I watched a 14-16 year old try to critique DS with only trailer footage and a genuine argument he mades about why MGSV was better was because "Quiet was so cool and badass." Really makes you think...
tl,dr
Kojambo is a hack and mgsbronies are one of the most cancerous fanbases out there
holy based
>Kojima shits out one complete blunder after the other for a decade since when he founds his studio, Kojimaproduction, up to 2015
>Publicy claim he is calling it quits with the franchise several times just to force Konami's hands and get a bigger paycheck everytime because of senseless cult of personality of the mgs fanbase.
>In the meantime he casually kills the Castlevania IP with 2 shitty GoW ripoffs
>Culminating his career at Konami with an unfinished game that surpassed 80 million dollars of budget and 5 years of development, and a mess of a storyline.
>It's also a worse Far Cry with somehow worse shooting and pointless shit online and grind/base management tackled on
>B-b-but you don't get it, he never wanted to make those games, evil Konami FORCED HIM to work on those games.
>Let's ignore that he has been vice president of Konami for this whole time
>Advertise a new game as some horror action post apocalyptic third person game
>Starting to look like a delivery sim the more news come in
>Shills in full force yelling how it's totally NOT a walking simulator
>Turns out it really is
>A-akthually yes, but y-you just want another COD...g-g-go back to Fortnite...
>Not even breaking 3 million copies on console after 8 months
>Delivery simulator with no physics for vehicles, the best tactic is Skyrim horse your way to the objective with the bike.
>Somehow he can't spare some of its dozens and dozens and dozens of millions he wasted for Normie Fetus ugly (and mostly mute) mug for giving the total of 3 vehicles you get to drive something open world games had 2 decades ago.
>"B-but art, you just don't get it *Takes a sip of Monster Energy Drink™*
>Literal AA sales figures, 700k copies sold on Steam at launch
>Complete silence on sales for more than half a year
>Kojima humiliating himself insisting proudly how 8+ months after release his "magnum opus", the masterpiece he put so much passion into after being free from the shackles of evil Konami, broke even.
inform him you can take a bath with mama in ds
tldr, kojimbot
>Wow being an idiot with cheap thots when you are married is so based and redpilled
So this is what he was doing instead of finishing MGSV?
yeah he was finishing
Someone hacked photomode to be able to use it while Sam is peeing, hope they get it to work in hotsprings.
Okay cool, the game still sucks ass and Kojima has been a hack since MGS3 proved that he can't write or direct for shit if he hasn't his old team around.
>pic related is capeshit
now I will proceed to ignore what you're saying.
but mgs3 is the best
>t.
MGS3 and 4 showed Kojima could have his cake and eat it too by having eye candy fanservice while contextualizing it in a sensible way in-universe. MGS3 in particular would be a worse game if the women were hags because they help set up parallels to spy movies, which enriched the setting and reinforces the time and place part of the narrative. It also gave Kojima an opportunity to clothesline the player by reversing the sex politics of the genre in the ending moments. None of this would be possible if Eva was a butt-ugly bulldyke built like a linebacker.
Quiet would’ve been fine if Kojima just owned up to her existing purely to give people something to jack off to, but he pretended like he was going to do something groundbreaking with her having to wear the bikini and it went nowhere just like everything else in that game’s narrative. Even “Chico is Quiet” would’ve unironically been more interesting from a plot standpoint than what we got.
Who gives a fuck about the plot.
Game reviewers are the least respected people in the industry. Their opinions are so fucking meaningless the second people disagree with them, so they resort to being extremist in either direction on very high profile games. Kojimbo is fairly humble considering how much of a god his fans consider him to be. Compare him to some one like Gearbox's Randy.
Again though game reviewers are some how more out of touch with gaming than game developers.
Who cares? He's also said he thinks games are entertainment and not art, and that the story in MGS games isn't important at all, it's just stylish context for the gameplay.
And no he didn't pretend he was doing something groundbreaking, he just said (over two years before the game came out after a really rocky development) that you'll feelz badz when you find why she's naked, which is because you and BB lit her on fire. And he did say that the character designs are what they are because they look cool and make for cool figures and cosplays
I hope history looks fondly on death stranding, I feel it deserves it for taking so many risks.
I respect it but it’s also the most shamelessly self-indulgent game I’ve ever played other than The Wonderful 101. It’s steeped in Kojima’s stink. Dude seriously needs to hire somebody to fix his shitty exposition dumps in particular.
I think Quiet's inclusion and her appearance are still well justified in both a practical sense and in relation to the game's broader themes, she embodies an aspect of the phantom pain that no other character does and one that's rarely touched on in the media in general that I find pretty interesting.
You've got Venom who's used to explore themes relating to memory, identity and the process of rehabilitation, obviously all owing to his brain injury (and brainwashing), then you've got Kaz who leans more into the permanent disability and disfigurement aspect, having to depend on others in order to live and the all the anger and frustration born from that, skull face and code talker in regards to speech pathology and communication, you get the idea.
Quiet's "phantom pain" is shame and ostracization, the nature of her condition is such that, while not debilitating in and of itself it sparks the ire and disgust of the people around her and because of them she can never live a normal life. Whenever I think of Quiet I'm reminded of this kid called Mark who I used to go to school with, Mark ended up developing some kind of kind of horrific abdominal disease and as a result of that he had to have a large portion of his colon excised. After his surgery Mark lost conscious control of his bowel movements and would have to excuse himself at a moments notice or skip the pleasantries and just run out of class straight to the bathroom to keep from shitting himself, we started calling him skidmark.
Thats the point of art
