In Sony's defense here, Kojima is a total fucking hack that is infamous for wasting money on nonsense and celeb cameos and larping as a Hollywood director. Konami gave him the boot as well.
Like I already mentioned here:
Yeah, if this were any other company in gaming I'd shrug it off and say "Fair enough, could have used some better optics though". It's just that  THIS of all things is apparently their line in the sand?
Any other company and I really wouldn't have much to say other than what a disaster it is to claim it was a mutual parting when the other guy is more than willing to call a spade a spade. $3.6 billion on bungie, who knows how many billions they're spending right now on even more live service slop, and this is where they decide the pennies need to be pinched?
 
Despite kojimbo's antics, this is just pissing on a fire that is fuelled by $100 dollar bills. You could've even had, a fucking game for the PS5 finally. But nooooooo you need to give NIGGERS money. Microsoft is not any better, but it is funny to see Sony continuously shooting themselves at their lower extremities. This is easily a safebet because people will buy up anything Kojima makes, having a recognisable developer working exclusively with your consoles will boon your sales.
Within the still active life cycle of the PS5 and with something like GTA 6 looming I fear that not much will happen that would influence Sony to change its opinion. They still make too much money with Ps+, MTX etc. With the PS6 that might be the case but it will probably take a couple of years until anything can be seen and sometime until that new pivot will show any effects.
Makes me think that more than likely he could have been cut due to being a money drain, however GTA6 sales from nigger cattle will make up for any loss of money. Which (like others) makes me suspect it was done out of some personal disagreements or political disagreements. This will probably effect them a lot more in the long run, considering how much of a shitstorm they are kicking up moving away from physical media.

I wonder what PHYSINT will turn out to be, but I will not be surprised if he dicks around for years before getting around to it. As is typical of eccentric Asians.

Right? Like, they are keeping guys who lose MORE money over Kojima? I am not a fan of his but he has a better track record than their other devs. He is "hit or miss" but the rest only miss. Something is fishy here. Even if Sony is hurting for money, Kojima was one of their safer bets.

My assumption is that the higher-ups wanted cuts and were unwilling to cut the woke slop and the live services. Of course that means that they are bigger idiots than we thought as Kojima has his cult which buy his games and prevent them from being complete "we have to do refunds" flops even in the worst situation while the rest of the PS library is risky Live Services, Hulst's astroturfed waifu pet projects and a guaranteed flop courtesy of Naughty Dog.

Kojima was the lesser evil yet he got the boot before these guys.
 
great IPs it refuses to leverage because they can't be turned into live service gacha trash.
In a better world without shit copyright laws. IP hoarding would've been a crime but unfortunately most copyright laws were basically made by diddleney themselves. God curse those fucking companies and i hope they all go bankrupt. Such an extremely shitty move to do.
ARE YOU FUCKING WITH ME SONY :story: :story:
THAT'S LIKE ON PAR WITH LOSING SQUARE FOR SONY BACK IN THE 90s!
 
Also Kojima Productions reportedly has two games in active development.

Painkiller is the survival horror troon game with Hunter Trooner and Jordan Peel but the second one Product Azure/Physint is said to be a stealth action game and heavily rumored to be a MGS successor.

That's probably the one Microsoft really wants under their belt.

Spending money on Kojimbo :punished:
How long until the retards come in this thread and start claiming that all of the MGS titles were a flop and that MGS was AKSUALLY a liability for Konami. But shitting out billions for a fucking IP from nineteen ninety fucking four is actually good and a sound financial decision!
 
Sony just terminated their partnership with Kojima on his next game.

Sony just shot themselves in the foot.
I don't know how much the rest of you know about Japanese culture (I'm an expert), but honor and shame are huge parts of it. It's not like it is in America where you can become successful by being an asshole. If you screw someone over in Japan, you bring shame to yourself, and the only way to get rid of that shame is repentance.
What this means is the japanese public, after hearing about this, is not going to want to purchase PS6, nor will they purchase any of Sony's games. This is HUGE. You can laugh all you want, but Sony has alienated an entire market with this move.
Sony, publicly apologize and rehire Kojima or you can kiss your business goodbye.

At the very least it should work on a 'use it or lose it' basis, and giving all your characters cameos in Astro Bot wouldn't count.

In my utopian future the only thing you wouldn't be allowed to do is sell bootleg copies of someone else's product (unless they refused to make it available, like with Earthbound), but if you wanna make your own Iron Man movie Disney and Marvel couldn't do shit to stop you.
 
already bought a ps5 and i swear to god seeing this makes,in hindsight, buying the ps5 for baldur gate a big mistake and that frustrate me
for illustration (stalin is my reaction whereas the commies below is soyny)

Kojima didn't want to make a live service slop game so Sony said sayonara lol.
That was likely the case. Which means Sony moves further and further from Single Player.

my boy hasnt made a good game since mgs3 lets be honest. even fucking konami sacked his ass
And the people they kept have never and will never make a good game. As for Konami, they are not the arbiters of good quality. They are infamous for how much they suck.
 
Death Stranding 3 will be more successful purely because the ending of DS2 implies Lou will be the new MC and she's a lot easier on the eyes than Norman Reedus.
I really didn't gave a fuck of how main character looked in Death Stranding and honestly what I really disliked was the fact that Stranding 2 brought back Sam as main character after his story was done, instead of moving to a different protagonist.
I am not a fan of his but he has a better track record than their other devs.
I never really played that many games from Kojima, but he always struck me as the kind of person who would rather make movies than games, but feels the need to make games because he wouldn't be able to stick all the themes and topics he want to discuss inside a movie. I think of him as overrated and pretentious, but still skilled at his job regardless.
He is "hit or miss" but the rest only miss.
Sony has been trying to make a thing out of horizon for well over a decade when the issue with the series is that its just ubislop open world #88420F.
Its "successful" the same way Avatar is, people bought it then forgot its existence altogether, which is the worst way you can be successful and will inevitably led to the biggest PR nightmares imaginable to give it an image, like the Nikocado comparison or whatever the fuck hunter gatherings is.
Horizon is not a miss, but it might as well be, since its a franchise with a ghost playerbase that is technically present but devoid of fan-content and activities.
That was likely the case. Which means Sony moves further and further from Single Player.
I refuse to believe sony doesn't hate money.
 
but if you wanna make your own Iron Man movie Disney and Marvel couldn't do shit to stop you.
Eh that's too far. Having a 50 year limit seems like a good option for the IP to enter public domain. Not this insane nonsense with having it be a whole ass fucking century for an IP to enter public domain. But yeah bootlegs barring situations like censorship or bans(like in my country's case) or just not being available. Yeah it's gonna be a crime.
