NEWS: Hideo Kojima, Sony Reveal Death Stranding Game

I knew as soon as he got on stage he wasn't going to show us anything that would tell us what the game was going to be about or what kind of game its was going to be they have only been working on it for a couple of months. They should have waited until next years E3 to show us the game Its probably not going to be out for 4 years any way wait until you actually have something to show first.

He said in an interview 5 minutes ago that it might not be an action game. I'm so confused. He refused to answer any question with anything other than "it's a secret" or "i cna't say anything yet"

I'm on the fence, really. As much as I like his games, I'm really starting to suspect that Kojima's not the saint everyone thinks he is. Supposedly he's really to hard work with, which is one of the reasons for his falling out with Konami. I feel like there should be a little oversight just to be on the safe side.

I'm confused, I was expecting this game to be something like Silent Hill, But it looks like Metal Gear?

Not really that confusing... it's guaranteed to be a third person game where you will have to fight something. He's already drawn comparisons to Uncharted and the Division. And one need only consider the style of game that Metal Gear Solid and Silent Hill typically are.

I believe in the interview (referring to the Keighley one) he said that it'll be something that people who generally like those kinds of games can easily acclimatize to, but they'll start to discover some different things as they play, so Kojima is essentially going to try something new.

Yes we do. They were treating him poorly and prevented him from interacting with others or others to ask questions about him. #FucKonami

Like I said we don't know exactly what happened since Kojima himself hasn't and presumable can't speak on it. And Konami's themselves haven't said what did Kojima do that justified his name being removed from a game he produced and most of the production team on that same game in effect being scattered to the winds.

The only reason most of the criticism of Konami's gets steam is because of the cancellation of Silent Hills, turning some of their other ips into pachinko/pachislot games, and that unflattering report that came out on how little they value their employees.

Yet ironically no one seems to blame Phantom Pain's clearly incomplete state on Konami's rushing the game out the door.
