I honestly don't think that's far off. Him with his fabricated BS underlining meanings to his rhetoric.

Kojima's just as fed up with MGS as we are. Konami doesn't want him to work on anything other than MGS, and he doesn't want to be remembered as "just the Metal Gear guy". I suspect that he's just sabotaging this game in small ways. Nothing would get the fan base more pissed than the firing of David Hayter. The questionable inclusion of advanced tech is another matter that had people up in arms. Practically nothing about MGS V seems praiseworthy from the trailers, except to the blind followers who absolutely refuse to remove their rose colored glasses.

He ****ing does that? That ****ing arrogant mother ****er.

Well, yeah. As far as I know, he at least removes any tweets.



I saw a whole range of replies to his tweets asking about Hayter. Some malicious and downright foul (understandably removed) while others were sincerely quite calm and proper.


The day after that, they were all removed. Something like that.

Ugh he's got such a high opinion of himself since he's got the only horse left to run for Konami. I just can't believe he's never even mentioned Hayter even once.

Re: Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain

Indeed. 15 years, not once has Kojima mentioned Hayter by name. He's a real life Mr. Burns!

 

[Snake Plissken]

Re: Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain

yes Burns indeed.

But when I think about it, has he always been this way? Social media has only become huge in the last say 10 years or so, so maybe were finally getting a dose of what he always was?

David did admitted that Kojima always puts the Japanese voices at a higher priority than the English dub, hence why MGS 2&3 had horrible, horrible lip sync and he only met Kojima once during a recording session of MGS4.

But to support your theory there, the biggest blow on how badly they treat the western localizations is how they treated Agness Kaku, the sole translator of MGS2. Seriously, give this a read, you'd be shocked, it's like being kicked in the nuts:

Save it till you can then. Basically it's a story of how Kojima screwed a 24 year old lady who had the burden of localizing MGS2 with no support whatsoever, only to be given word files and nothing more.

She got a low pay, wasn't given a complimentary copy of the game and wasn't even credited and even got threatened by Konami. MGS fanboys and Ryan Payton took shots at her for being her fault MGS2 had a bad script. The list goes on.

I think what to take away from this interview is how Kojma doesn't give a flying ***k what you think. (being more evident now that David Hayter publicly gives a similar statement).

She gives her honest opinion on Kojima and how Konami handles their affairs and how she's bitter working with them. It's a fascinating read, and I really hope this woman is doing well right now.

I know there was translation errors with MGS2, but I didn't realize it went that deep. You know what, I'm kinda thinking about boycotting this game. Just not buying it. I don't know, it's just hard to do that you know? Investing almost 16 years into this thing and just cutting it off. I'll decide when it gets closer to coming out I guess

I just can't believe what a POS Koji and Konami are.
