No Death Stranding at E3, confirms Kojima

Good.

He should space out marketing. Some casting news and images at TGS, new teaser at PSX and then gameplay at E3 2018.
 
Developers cannot win.

Announce it too early - "WTF why is is taking so long!"

Dont announce anything for three years (See Retro and Sucker Punch) "What the hell are they working on, when are they going to announce something!!"

Good to see you aren't letting Kojima get away with it though

And fuck Tetsuya Nomura.

Until he releases one of his games, then he's the best ever (then fuck him again when he announces something new).
 
Yeah remember last year when he said he wouldn't show his new game, cuz he didn't even had chosen an engine for it, and then boom there he was walking with mad max music as bg on the Sony conference.
 
I have no problem with this. If your game isn't going to show, just let people know beforehand so expectations can be adjusted. It's obviously a massive project that will take years. Get it right.

They can't win because different people have different views and their fanbases are made up of all of those people. Some want to see stuff immediately, others only when it's close to ready. There's nothing wrong with that. I'm on the side of people who think you should ideally show a game only about a year out from release.
 
Its for the better.
I hate the idea of havinng Death Strading shoved down my troath at every conference until it releases 3 years from now.
 
I hope he's not on the wind up and actually is skipping the conference. Don't need another reminder that this game is still a good three years away at least.

Here's the only new information I can present at this time.

(the Bridges art)


I don't buy it.
 
A spider web, bridges...Gwen Stacy gets pushed off a bridge in Spider-man...who plays Gwen Stacy in the ASM movies....

Emma Stone confirmed.
 
KojiPro:"Kojima-san, we haven't got enough time to make a new trailer for E3!"

Kojima:"No problem, i will just post an image that makes no sense. Fans will overanalizing it for the rest of year, they'll be good."

KojiPro:"KOJIMA IS GOD!"
 
Save it for the PS5 unveiling.
Yup that's my thought as well. With Sony's current talk about BC we can't assume that PS5 will run PS4 games and I don't want another situation where I've already switched to the new generation when another AAA past-gen game arrives as with GT6.
This as a PS5 launch title would be perfect.
 
I'm cool with it. It's not coming out anytime soon, so basically there's no need to keep shoving teasers in peoples faces for something way off from release.


Sony has a lot else going on for them. This game doesn't need to be showcased all the time. We know it exist. Keep quiet until you can show the world in motion and then release it.
 
Good decision. Game is still early in development, and they'd have to make yet another tech demo. I'd rather they waited another year (or however long it takes to get some solid content) and then pull out the big guns.
