I'm with you, I can't wait to spend 20 minutes planning my attack on a gorge.
I was gonna say, I don't think MGS2's message was that control of information is bad. My read is that it's a great idea that humanity will never allow.
And that's within your right. The AIs make some actually good points. People naturally vie for power and seek to control the flow of information. As information is a dangerous tool in the wrong hands. But if you have omnipotent ageless machine gods sorting through all the fucking detritus of useless memes for the betterment of humanity as a whole it sounds very compelling. That's why Raiden naturally disagrees with the idea of control, but once the illusion of his success is shattered he takes a passive tone in the conversation. As if he's slowly considering the idea.
But Kojima once took 3 pictures that had Che Guevara’s face in them so he must be a pro-communist revolutionary who eats gourmet food and hangs out with Hollywood celebrities
Wasnt peace walker big boss inspired by che and the characters in that game dont stop sucking his dick and saying he dindu nutting?
Who the fuck is complaining about politics in Death Stranding? This shit is "old man yells at sky" levels.
Big Boss as a character was mainly inspired by Che but he’s also the main villain of the series who’s committed countless war crimes and human rights violations, so do the math. Kojima seems like one of those dudes who’s more interested in the legacy that horrible people leave behind even if he doesn’t agree with their philosophy.
IIRC from the metal gear art books, Kojima's focus was having his character be primarily interesting and their moral alignment was secondary. So he's going to have characters in there that he doesn't agree with personally but they exist because they're interesting and make for interesting interactions with the other characters. It's about as apolitical as you can get.
Wait Torna fixes the gatcha shit? I might have to check xc2 out again.
Botw is basically zelda for not-zelda fans - as an intro to the series it is phenomenal, even if it gets ridiculously dull towards the end.
Pretty much. I roll my eyes whenever I see people claim that it was an homage to the first game and getting the series back on track (as if every game but the first is just completely invalidated, what a joke). I don't remember the first game having underwhelming dungeons, Ubisoft towers and survival mechanics. Nintendo saw the open world survival game market was ripe and they dove right in.
Of course they didn't understand that, they would of had to get far in Metal Gear Solid 2 to understand that.
Does this fuckwit not realize that that pic is one of the most commercialized, ubiquitous images ever? Go into anyone’s closet and there’s a 1-in-3 chance there’s something with that face on it.These people are no better than Marvel consumers that do the soyface over the shitty dialogue.
I was about to say, in one of those images Kojima is wearing a fucking Joker t-shirt. The dude's a pop culture nut.
Dickriding of Kojima aside, the guy is too boring to be a lolcow. Unless someone uncovers his hidden stash filled with furry snuff fetish porn, I doubt he will get a thread here. He's like a tamer video game version of Mundane Matt and Quarterpounder without the drama and false flagging.
but can he be a hack genius
