[fritzo]

this has been a waste of time mostly.

 

[Higgins113]

Phantom Menace?

 

[The Silver]

Dammnit Kojima, MG1/2 need remakes 10x more than MGS1, wtf man.

 

[shwimpy]

MOVIE MOVIE MOVIE.

 

[Elessar]

Do we really need to see their backs, camera guy?

 

[BGMNTS]

Fuck sake can we just let Koj make a big film to get it out of his system.

 

[Vibranium]

Honest question: Why does Kojima need a translator? Or more broad: Why do so many Japanese devs need translators? Is speaking English not that important in Japan?

He is embarrassed by his accent and feels that he is difficult to understand when speaking English. More comfortable in his native language like anyone else. Nothing wrong with that.

I completely understand this. With work he could definitely become comfortable speaking English, but it is his choice and we should respect it.

 

[Doctor_Thomas]

I am sure Kojima is a lovely man, but I kind of feel like this is the sort of interview that works better in text format and this should be used to show off games and talk about games and reveal David Hayter

 

[cackhyena]

For all the goofy pictures and conjecture you nuts have been throwing up in every MGS thread, you deserve this.

 

[NoctisVsStar]

i was expecting more, but VGA it is for me

 

[Mr. RHC]

lol,

 

[ST2K]

Am I the only one interested in what the day to day of someone like Kojima looks like?

 

[Twinduct]

"Anyway how's your sex life Mr. Kojima"

 

[Love Deterrence]

Baja Blast and Cooler Ranch, duh.

:lol :lol :lol

 

[MrS]

this has been a waste of time mostly.

At least the camera man's having fun

 

[Konosuke]

Why are they doing this camera orbit when you can't see the audience? It's fucking bizarre. The whole thing is bizarre.

It's really annoying lol

 

[TopGun]

Just the idea that I'll be able to play MGSV on my PC rig maxed out and on my laptop whenever I'm away is just CRAZY.

GZ is already done, send this shit over to Steam ASAP. It's a multiplat engine, this should be a fast process.

 

[Chaos2Frozen]

Honest question: Why does Kojima need a translator? Or more broad: Why do so many Japanese devs need translators? Is speaking English not that important in Japan?

...Seriously =_= ?

English is not a main language taught in Japan, they have 'some' education but mostly it's a secondary language.

 

[dsp]

Do we really need to see their backs, camera guy?

Camera guy is actually Tarantino.

 

[Xpike]

isn't it funny that David Hayter got to do an actual movie before Kojima. Maybe Hideo was just too jealous and kicked him out.

 

[Alienous]

4 hours of sleep makes Kojima less of a Diamond Dog and more of a Silly Goose.

Take those extra 2 hours, and keep the films for the weekends.

 

[Freaky Fred]

did he just say Phantom Menace?

Darth Maul is Schoolface

 

[Betty]

I try to get into this game every time new info or media comes out and I just can't.

Almost 20 years after the original MGS became one of my favorite games of all time, I think I'm completely and utterly burned out on the franchise, the universe, the core gameplay conceits, everything.

I'm kind of sad. It feels like the end of an era.

You've been down on the game since... forever, as far as I recall, seems you're just done with it really, which is totally okay.

 

[raven777]

seriously these questions...

 

[Vinterbird]

Geoff or whoever chose the questions just have no balls to actually ask questions people want to know that may put Kojima in a complicated position. Hence no Snake in Smash, no Hayter, no ZoE/Policenauts/Snatcher and instead knowing what movie character Kojima would like to be.

It would be boring as shit having Kojima go "No Comment" through all of those questions.

 

[Itchy//Tasty]

Alright, I'm out. Wanted release date, left with nothing.

(logs out of Twitch right before Hayter bursts out of a cake nude)

 

[jett]

This Q&A is...wat.

 

[ghostjoke]

Fuck sake can we just let Koj make a big film to get it out of his system.

Can you imagine how long that film would be? Dude can't edit to save his life.

 

[glottis8]

yes... on PC it'll be glorious. Higher res, antialiasing, downsampling, farther distance and pop in diminished. I can't wait.

 

[Slowdive]

Hahaha.

 

[The Silver]

For all the goofy pictures and conjecture you nuts have been throwing up in every MGS thread, you deserve this.

this man is correct

 

[Bel_Air_Jeff]

Am I the only one interested in what the day to day of someone like Kojima looks like?

It looks like a Japanese man sitting in an oversized couch in his penthouse apartment watching Western action films.

 

[daveo42]

This is one of the questions always asked when they let fans ask them...

 

[Skele7on]

He is embarrassed by his accent and feels that he is difficult to understand when speaking English. More comfortable in his native language like anyone else.

I completely understand this, but I do wish he would try to take some lessons on improving his speaking, that would be great,

What shut up... Why should he?

Why don't you learn to speak Japanese.

I'd much rather he spent time watching movies and making fantastic games.

Translator is fine..

Keighley: Great response!

Longer than Alejandro Jodorowsky's version of Dune.

 

[DrKelpo]

also excessive food-photography

 

[MrS]

Translator is fine..

Not this one.

 

[TL21xx]

Need a video of this, it sounds hilarious.

Couldn't find a YouTube link, but this site has it: http://gamingeverything.com/2011-vgas-hideo-kojimas-metal-gear-rising-revengeance-speech/

 

[KingHenrik30]

Wait, when did this start? Did I miss the gameplay?

A lot of Japanese speakers have trouble with English sounds. If you watch the Nintendo directs, Iwata really has to enunciate every word. The languages are just really challenging for each other.

 

[Alienous]

I wouldn't give a shit about hearing Natalie Portman's daily routine. What possessed Geoff into thinking that anyone was interested in Kojima's?

 

[BGMNTS]

I don't think I get japanese humour.

Dude you are talking about Konami, they put Pro Evo 8 about a month later on steam than the retail DVD version.

 

[MrMatt555]

It requires alot of FINERGY

 

[Sanke__]

This stream makes me extremely nervous about phantom pain.

I dont think there is any way it will release before 2016 and im starting to get the impression it will be no more than 10 hours. Way too much talk about replaying missions.

 

[daveo42]

I think English is the translator's 2nd or 3rd language. He's doing a good job especially since I'm not seeing him writing much anything down.

 

[kadab]

We need a translator for the translator

 

[Doctor_Thomas]

farther distance and pop in diminished

I wonder how much of that is engine limitation though.

 

[RedAssedApe]

gameplay was over long ago. you're watching the good stuff now
