His personality quirks aside (which I honestly think are overexaggerated on Internet), I played (and REPLAYED) enough of Kojima's games to know that whatever he has in store, I will most likely enjoy it if I decide to give it a chance.

He is ridiculous and his games are utterly overrated. I don't

When did Kojima actually become the way he is now? It feels like he thinks he's a Mastermind who does everything well, and those who don't understand it are 20 Years behind.
Sorry that I don't want to invest 40+ hours in a Walking Simulation where i find the characters awful, and don't understand the story because the developer himself doesn't.
The cutscenes are long and boring.
His last good game was Metal Gear 3. Part 4 was technically very good, but there were too few opportunities to exploit it because it was more cutscene-oriented and the levels felt more like a Linear Movie Game.
I think Kojima is just wasting a lot of Sony/Microsoft Money. I was a big Kojima fan, but now I just find him annoying. He wasted 10 years on DS1 and DS2 to indulge his obsession. And the Kojima Defense Alliance will invoke Kojima Article 5 every time Kojima is criticized, which only makes him continue to believe he's God.

He had a great track record tho, it's not like just idiots bought the games he made for the sake of it, but after he left Konami and the whole controversy behind that, he was championed as the "misunderstood creator that couldn't finish the perfect game because evil Konami didn't let him" and that elavated his ego to the stratosphere with this result, 2 walking sims being sold as "revolutionary", if made by any other studio, would get panned left and right

I don't understand the hate Kojima gets at all. I'm not a big fan of anything he's done in the past ten years but he's one of the few people who treat games like an artform and sometimes manages to have original ideas instead of just churning out safe designs that are guaranteed to sell. So he talks like an artist, I'm glad we've still got some

He catches flak because most people don't play video games for the art. They play video games because they want to relax and have fun. Kojima's "artistry" is often too complex for the medium.
I think he's making a GaaS so his success for it is whether it is still around after 10-20 years like GTA and Fortnite.
