It's a WIN...

[THE VERY REVEREND MISTER BONK]

Always knew it would be. Oh Yes!

[mdesaleah]

Lmao

Kojima didn’t leave because of PT or anything that happened after.

Kojima knew he was not going to be at Konami for long BEFORE PT released.

It was his final little test game. And also one big proof of concept that he knew exactly what he was doing when it came to completely beating out every game after 1-4 easily.

Even if he knew Silent Hills was likely to never happen, he made his point, and then left to make his own team instead.

It’s Konami that was planning his leave during MGS5 that’s to blame

Actually, Kojima made Silent Hills teaser without checking with Konami, first, that's why he got in trouble. The CEO of the company was a person below him before mobile games made the company tons so he took over, and there was a grudge, on top of that.

Very unprofessional, yes.

If this true. That's so wild.

The previous CEO was who had offered it to him, the new CEO made it absolutely clear mobile, was the new direction, he released the demo anyway. Can't blame him, really.

Kojima and that CEO were "fighting" a lot, indeed. Just research about Metal Gear Solid V. He ain't the culprit of this, however. The Metal Gear series is getting a proper, faithful and respectful remake, afterall.

The culprit of the Silent Hill 2 fiasco are but Konami, themselves.

They decided to start with the second game because it's the most beloved. So everyone's gonna buy it, right? If they REALLY wanted a revival of the series, logics says they would've started with the first one, instead.

Hopefully their little "get rich quick" scheme bites them in their ass.

It was a first person silent hill game

PT in my opinion overrated!

we shall see about Delta. Delta is being handle by a Singapore company while working alongside Konami. I assume it's the same as this game. Konami are just there to consult and look over the game while actual development is handle by that Singapore company.

P.T aka Playable Teaser was a boring walking simulator that was trying to copy other indie horror games at the time, it wasn't "a real Silent Hill" lmao and this one won't be as well.

That it also not really true.

PT itself is a demo, but the potential full game most likely was not.

(also SH4 has entire first person sections and are the best part of that game……….)

Kojima knew that if he just copied what was done before completely, it wouldn’t capture much interest.

So he took it in a different direction, while still feeling more SH than every game after 1-4. It keeps the original mystery and building of suspense but through a different approach.

Much better than the mid Origins, and the terrible Homecoming. Which look like SH but miss the point of the series entirely

[turn heel]

Man I really liked Lunar Knights

[Fideo]

And it seems that Sweet Baby Inc will take care of letting the players know that the white man is cowardly and evil.

They're making him more pompous, arrogant, and as noted Leon-esque. He is exuding his white male privilege. No longer lost, scared, confused, worried, sad... just confident in the face of everyone else suffering.

If Kojima hadn't thrown a hissey fit after P.T we would be getting a real Silent Hill.

The fact that bloober changed the characters - all of them - is proof they have no clue what Silent Hill is all about.
They looked that was for a reason that was integral to the narrative.

As things are all we will be getting is a another soulless zombie shooter with absolutely zero actual Silent Hill vibes.

It is NOT Kojima's fault that Konami handed this Japanese classic over to a bunch of incompetent, virtue signaling Western developers.
