EXACTLY THIS!!!! Why are some random video game journalist getting an hour long interview with this guy and then revealing nothing? The only thing they say is, "it isn't Kojima, but you'll like what he has in store". Why are they so sure of that? Did they see the game? Did Geoff see the game? After speaking with "Hasan" they ALL are so sure that we'll like what he's working on, yet NONE of them have written an actual article about their interviews.
Plus they are all interviews through email or WhatsApp. Why no virtual interviews through ZOOM? If this guy wants proper acknowledgement and prove that he's not Kojima, why not do a video interview with Geoff? He's done plenty of those type of interviews with devs since the Pandemic started. "Hasan" doesn't have to wait until June 22nd to do a video interview. And if he's nervous of being on video, why not allow one of the 50+ people that work for him do the interview. Being that they are supposedly all real, that shouldn't be a problem right?
Many devs allow their Producer or Lead Tech person do certain interviews with the gaming media. With all this media hype, wouldn't NOW be the best time to start showing your face and getting the message out there that your "small" indie team are they ones really making this awesome game that every video game journalist seems to think will be awesome after talking to "Hasan"?
