Nah, his work needs room to breath, trying to constrain it to the typical running time of a movie wouldn't work.I wish kojima would drop the act and just directed movies.
The gameplay honestly wasn't as bad as I expected, there's plenty of less engaging ps2 action games. That said I went in with incredibly low expectations and action replay already. I can't even imagine trying to collect all the weapons and level any of them up without cheats. As cheaply made as the game is, it's really hard to ruin the experience of laying waste to armies with a fire breathing dragon. As much as they try to with some of those magic repelling enemies ugh. I'd love to see a remake with actually competent gameplay and completely revamped leveling, but the exact same story and music. Imagine the actual Dynasty Warriors people doing the on foot parts and the actual Ace Combat people (not the B team) doing the dragon parts.drakengard
fun
nigga, you smoke crack?
man i love dynasty warriors for people on sleepers
That's actually what turned me away from getting Death Stranding. Everybody seemed disappointed by it not being more actiony when we saw the final product, but I never got that feeling from the trailers. The way I saw it the trailers clearly promised trippy scifi horror shit and the game doesn't seem to deliver outside of some cutscenes.When I think of Silent Hills, my sentiments are that of grief. It was like a promising prodigy child dying in toddlerhood. A hard loss because you never got to see all it could have been. All its dreams blown away.
I can't deal with that shit again. Ever since then, I've checked out. Walking Simulator was a waste of time. I just want some trippy horror shit, dammit.
Hideo Kojima directing a Silent Hill game would have made teenage me jizz in my fucking pants, it sounded like a literal dream come true so of course it never happened.When I think of Silent Hills, my sentiments are that of grief.

Did they even start making it? Outside of Kojimbo bragging about talking to Del Taco and other Hollywood people there was no game, just a trailer. PT isn't even what the game was supposed to be.the Silent Hill game never got finished
Instead he remade Metal Gear Survive but with a Hollywood cast.Death Stranding should have been Metal Gear Solid with a greater emphasis on the paranormal, all the elements were there with Higgs and the Demens but instead the focus was on being a boring deliveryman and having to be non-lethal with everything.
A good story for "a video game" is still a good story, I'm sick of this reductive attitude some have about video games, video games are an artform, same as movies, TV, books, comics, music, paintings and the stage.Make movies? Why? His stories are fun because the games are good, there's no real depth to his wacky vidya plots that could stand on its own in another format. One big appeal of his stories is the humor, he tries to be serious but then Raiden slips on birdshit, tries to look up a womans skirt and gets pissed on the head before returning to talk about information control. He can't crack that concept for a movie and play to his strengths with a functional Tom Clancy/Marx Brothers military thriller, he will try to play it straight.
They're good stories for a videogame, for a videogame, videogame, videogame....
Here's how I would have done it.Did they even start making it? Outside of Kojimbo bragging about talking to Del Taco and other Hollywood people there was no game, just a trailer. PT isn't even what the game was supposed to be.

Yeah, if Sharted Memories, Homiecoming and KORNpour wasn't enough to bury the series, this would've ended it once and for all.I'm still assblasted that the Silent Hill game never got finished so hopefully its a horror game.
Sure, let the man with the terminal case of "tell, don't show" waste movie studios' money instead.I wish kojima would drop the act and just directed movies.
Even aside from that, what makes people think that he would've done something good with a series, that he has fuck all to do with? When he had creative freedom, he made Death Stranding.PT isn't even what the game was supposed to be.
Just because they're the newest artform doesn't make them inferior to anything else, in a way video games are the culmination of human artistic endeavors, isn't creating a world that you can step into and interact with what's it's all been building up to? There is still loads of potential to this artform.
You can do extremely weird while still being fun. Drakengard and Nier are examples of this. The difference is Taro is competent and Kojima isn't.
No no no, Videogames are just discount Hollywood! Games are supposed to tell me stories as I sit there and watch! Movies are a higher form of art, therefore games must aspire to be movies because movies are more renown.Twitch Thottery is the newest artform and it IS inferior to everything else. Video games are nothing new, they even made a movie adaption of the emoji screen on smart phones!
Silent Hill 2 is really good but made into a movie it would just be a knock-off of Jacob's Ladder. If you take the game out of a game what's left will not be its strongest components. Metal Gear is a great game that could be adapted into a lousy movie featured on Best of the Worst.
Lots of small brains in this thread. Lmao.
Death Stranding was comfy and fun.
The fact that his games are retarded is part of the charm imo. I thought Big Boss was just a bad translation but no, it is literally a translation of "BIGGU BOSSERU." Look at Death Stranding, with characters like Die-Hardman, Heartman (who has a heart condition), Sam Porter Bridges (who is a porter for Bridges). It's so fucking stupid. Everything is so stupid.Not a knock against you specifically but it always kills me when I see Kojima fanboys call people dumb when almost all of these subreddits and forums are filled with low IQ anime fans who take everything he does at face value.
His fanboys barely analyze anything and just latch onto ideas as if they always saw it once someone does a huge hour long analysis like a decade later (see MGS2 VR theory)
It especially kills me with MGS V where they all take the idea that medic/the player is Big Boss as some grand idea even though it's a retread of MGS2 while taking everything else about The Truth at face value when Kojima seems to be trying to smack everyone across the face with a 2x4 that it shouldn't with the "there are no facts" quote and the entire fucking Paz subplot.
Shattered Memories was decent, I wish Climax had been given the chance to make another Silent Hill game instead of Downpour because it seems like they were getting close to making one that was really good.Yeah, if Sharted Memories, Homiecoming and KORNpour wasn't enough to bury the series, this would've ended it once and for all.
I think this is what a lot of people don't get is the "flaws" in Kojima's games is what adds character and makes them unique.The fact that his games are retarded is part of the charm imo.

Fuck, in metal gear, Revolver Ocelot hypnotized a dude to think he's Big Boss because??? and then proceeded to hypnotize HIMSELF to believe that dude was Big Boss, and then he hypnotized himself AGAIN to think he was Liquid Snake. All because fuck it why not?
Kojima is the best kind of hack. He's a hack that makes things silly enough to be fun. It's like bad 80s horror films. They are bad, we know they are bad, the people that made them didn't intend for them to be bad, but we love them anyway. Anyone that takes his work at face value is a retard.
Death Stranding, however, is maximum comfy Amazon Prime driver sim.
I always used to assumed when he was done with Metal Gear a reboot or spiritual successor to Snatcher would be his next project, that seemed like an obvious choice.Snatcher reboot here we go!!!!*
