Debriefing and Thanking Hideo Kojima: MGSV TPP

​

In this heartwarming video released today, the launch day of Hideo Kojima's swan song to the Metal Gear Solid franchise, we take a look at the way Metal Gear Solid has touched the lives of faces big and small, and really understand the impact this franchise has had on gamers as a whole. I sincerely hope everyone watches to the end of the video, as the impact it had on me was truly amazing.

After only having played a few hours of Kojima's final Metal Gear, i've sensed every bit of passion, hard work, and love that he has put into this game. Kojima's final work is truly amazing, and the following video will show you that the man that worked on it, is equally as amazing and deserving of the title as one of the most influential faces in gaming history.

everything has the beginning and the ending, there's no need to feel sorrow about it.

The most important thing is we are REALLY enjoyed the fruit of those people who worked hard with their own heart!

a MG fan since NES.

From what I played of MGSV, it's a fucking stellar game so far and honestly if it keeps it up, might end up being my favourite MGS game.

I'm sure Konami ditched him. They took everything away from him, but he still acts professional about it. Good man, hope he does a start up.

No, Kojima, I have to thank you.
Not only did you released MGSV on my birthday, you also included a birthday event at Mother Base. If not for Metal Gear Solid 2 back in 2001 I would never have the passion for gaming I currently have.
I really hope that Kojima's career as a game director isn't going to end. Now that he isn't at Konami he has the freedom of working on his own ideas without fans begging for MGS sequels.

Kojima: Konami pulled me to hell, but I'm going even deeper.

I was actually thinking the same thing (even though I've read the comments before watching the movie). Those particular camera shots and cameo's? Check. Melodramatic music? Check. Manhugs? Check. Voice overs? Check. Visit to the family of a former fan? CHECK!

Really...all I was missing was a "PRESS F TO BECOME TOTALLY EMOTIONAL FOR MGS V" overlay. And perhaps it was me, but I had the impression that Hideo had no idea what those English guys were saying*.



*to be honest: I had no idea what that first guest (Kyle Cooper) was saying either...and I DO know English

Never forget Metal Gear Solid: Ground $0 Dollars
( ͠° ͟ʖ ͡°)
NEVER FORGET.
HE TRIED TO SELL ONE MISSION AS A FULL GAME.

On a side note, you should summarize the video... being the OP and all... :creep:

It was like $10 at release. On PC anyway. Lasted 2 hours for me, was a good prequel and setup to everything in MGSV. Worth.

Besides, it was much more likely Konami's decision to sell it as promo material for MGSV, not Kojima's.

No. One mission. 5 rehashed "side missions"
Metal Gear is made to have a story. He had ONE story mission.

Problem is that in TPP these rehashed missions are considered main missions and are listed side by side with story missions. Probably canon too. Filler content is still content. You can't proceed in the story without playing these filler missions so you can't simply say "lel rehashed missions don't count" because they actually do count.

  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    yall im torn... ive been hacking away at tales of phantasia GBA (the USA version) and have so many documents of reverse engineering i've done
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I just found out that the EU version is better in literally every way, better sound quality, better lighting, and there's even a patch someone made to make the text look nicer
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version?
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    @TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one ;)
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and realistically they wouldn't

    be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    why the shit does the shitbox randomly insert newlines in my messages
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It does that when I edit a post.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It inserts a newline in a random spot.
