GQ Interview of Hideo Kojima

Most surprising thing to me is that Kojima apparently has two sons.

This dude wants to be movie-star-famous so badly. If his games weren't so good, I'd find him insufferable.

Luckily his games are always creative and have distinct vision, which is more than you can say about 95% of devs. Based Kojima.
 
If Scorsese's doing it, I can't criticise Scorsese. He's the second god. The first is George Miller.

They ask film directors their four favourite movies. What are yours?

I say I can't answer this all the time. It changes. 2001: A Space Odyssey. Taxi Driver. Mad Max 2. Akira Kurosawa's High and Low. I keep a memo.

I fucking love this man

Scorsese is the second god :messenger_grinning_smiling::messenger_sunglasses:

And yet the interview states otherwise lmao.

He's been larping as a Hollywood director since basically MGS3 but it really shifted into high gear around Ground Zeroes.

MGS2 is his magnum opus and he hasn't reached even 25% of that game's brilliance since because everyone keeps telling him he's a generational visionary mastermind and he's been huffing his own farts.

MGS4 really fucked him up in a weird way.
 
I actually read the interview just now. Pretty interesting.

-"If I pass the baton to my staff and tell them to make things the same way I do, the company will not succeed and will go out of business"
-He wants to direct a movie after he releases Physint
-His mom had to cheat to beat MGS 3 and it took her six months (probably for The End to die of old age. Grannies don't know how to adjust system clocks.)
-Death Stranding 2 could've released in 2023 if not for Covid
-He wants more time to change a few things for DS2 but it's too late--classic Kojima!
