Kojima's mom sounds like a *f'king LEGEND* for all that support on his path, and the patient playthroughs of her son's games.

that is actually the part that stuck out the most for me in this video. the fact that his mother supported him from the start and has played and completed all his games. that just shows she truly loves him and wants to support him completely.

If you think about it, and look back at all the metal gear games, there is a distinct detailing even with limited Hardware. In the original Metal Gear, the dogs they used are clearly military-style dogs like German Shepherds. In Metal Gear Solid, even when you're running up the stairs shooting everyone, your gun is still fixed at an eye level and not just blindly shooting from the hip like some exaggerated Rambo Style. For perfectionist like Kojima, the only time the series gets too silly or unbelievable, he was probably just giving himself a break.

That's the will of a perfectionist. He doesn't get angry, he doesn't get even, he just says: "No matter, I'll just make new franchises that are better than my past."
Kojima's metal gear series basically made my childhood lol When i was like 5 i would run around the house like snake and my grandfather would be the genome soldier lol good times.
He probably never dug a hole in the ground with a shovel in his life under the scorching sun, so what kind of suffering did he really had? He had just a job in an office and made his way up just like everybody else

i feel like, Kojima does needs a partner that's a bit more grounded. Konami had to pull Kojima from Lost Warld and hand him a "Military" game, for him to create the metal gear series. And not with free rein as an indie developer, he's made a game where you're a courier on foot in an apocalyptic wasteland.

Did you know? Kojima was the vice president of Konami for some of the least profitable years in their history. He's not as innocent as you like to believe.
@@shindean Kojima doesn't need to get the rights to the games he worked on. He has been wanting to make new games for a long time but Konami kept forcing him to make more Metal Gear. Personally I would love if he continued to work on it, but he wanted to be done with that series for over a decade.
@@Sivrn-Val I really don't get you people who says that phrase, "Prepare to be disappointed." What if he actually liked the thing? Does that count as a win for him? If not, is that a win for you? How would you know that he'll be disappointed? Will you be breathing down his neck while he plays the game heckling him with ASMR? Such a curious phrase for people so full of themselves.
When Team Silent, and Kojima Productions has left the company, Konami went into a massive downfall. Big Business mistake when Konami thought that Mobile gaming and Pachinko machines are "the future" of gaming.
unfortunately konami stocks sky rocketed after this ordeal because of the higher ups wanting nothing to do with games like mgs or castlevania or silent hills , instead they are focusing hard on micro transactions and mobile games and it shows that that's what raking in the money and I expect that the age of incredible games has either already ended (except things like half life alyx , death stranding ,control , resident evil remakes and upcoming re8 cyberpunk) or is at it's end and all we will be left with is mobile games and things like pes fifa madden fortnite valorant etc.
@@martin518441 I agree, but I was thinking the problem Konomi will have at some point, is that they wont be remembered for doing anything truly spectacular. Just a tiny footnote in history. Mobile games are far from that. It will take a LONG time for people to forget Zelda & Mario. Konami have their own 'Mario' but it seems they dont really know what to do with it.
Those things make 10x money than a well made video game. That’s the unfortunate reality of capitalism. Games back in the day were so much better because developers put their heart and soul into their projects. Now everything is just a cash grab.
Kojima is the japanese keanu reeves, everyone likes him, he's humble but most importantly he is an immortal vampire who never ages and can destroy society whenever he sees fit
Not even his first time. Metal Gear 2 on the MSX was objectively one of the best games, if not the best game, of its generation. It was way ahead of its time.
One persons dreams, creativity, vision and passion is a entire fandom as is all of his creations from Snatcher to the the last Metal Gear game. Hideo Kojima is a inspiration that anything is possible and that we shouldn't dwell on unforeseen circumstances but instead be positive and take each stride forward with confidence and dignity, the state or quality of being worthy of honour or respect. 😊✌
Just finished Death Stranding and watched a few Behind the Scenes videos. This man truly dedicates himself to his art form and not only makes kickass games but uses it as a platform to pass on some seriously deep and and thought provoking ideas. He has done this since MGS1 and continues doing it in DS. Folks can call him pretentious or whatever, but damn, you cannot deny this man’s absolutely phenomenal talent. Keep making ‘em Kojima, I’ll be waiting for you on the beach.
Japanese: Develop, Debug, and then release. Patches are more of Add-ons. No bug to fix. The rest: Develop, Debug less, then release. Patches are bug fix, add-ons and etcs.
'Kojima heard rumours of Sony's new console: the Playstation. When he finally saw the device he set out to create a new Metal Gear title, wanting it to be best game on the Playstation.' He bloody well succeeded, didn't he?
Metal Gear Solid got me back into gaming after taking a few years off after the N64 launch. Kojima is a true creative genius and we are lucky he chose to make games instead of films or TV.
@@GuyOnAChair That actually can be the case. Stress does an extreme amount of symptoms on the body that we are only just starting to understand and take seriously. Also human just have this awareness about them when a person is truly happy or passionate. Kojima smiling is wholesome, and I love it when he does.
Great video man, made me a bit emotional when the MGS2 theme started. I remember playing it for the first time when I was 12 or 13 and being absolutely blown away. I have played it yearly or more since, and have had it on every platform. The entire series is incredible I can't wait to play Death Stranding.
@@RandoLePerson Jeez the game isn't even out yet. Honestly it depends entirely on how the mechanics will be implemented. All of those can be done without it being a chore. You're already judging the game before it's out. Try to keep an open mind. If it's shit, it's shit. If it's good, it's good. That said we can't judge it releases.
@@noirscape_ The game is completely unconventional from it's approach to gameplay not so different from how Ico, Shadow of the Colossus, or even Journey approaches it's game design on massive area explore it's game's world. If you expect every game out there to be non stop action, then there is no need to play anything other than back to back action. The game clearly has barren world to explore for it's hiking aspect of trying to course through the experience, plus more from it's game description, twitter.com/ZhugeEX/status/1133841855735582720
@@noirscape_ Even that not entirely ture. The game is unconventional as it's not trying to be for everyone. Based on it's reviews so far, t’s a polarizing game though, some people love, some people dislike and it’s not for them. It’s not gonna be for everybody and you need to know what you’re in for before you spend money on it and have realistic expectations for it if plan on playing it.
16:02 All I can think about is that ladder and "What a thrill......." That song is just so good. Everything just works. Cynthia killed it for real on that one.
that story about how he spent all that time alone, I could definitely see that playing into his inspiration for death stranding and connecting with people... makes a lot of sense! I think the original MGS was the first game of his I ever completed (though I likely have played the MSX prequels a little bit prior) definitely my favorite playstation game ever! I did also eventually get to play Policenauts after the fan-translation was released about a decade ago.
Konami: i know! Lets fire all our expensive employees to save money. We can just have anyone make the games. Customers just want to see their favorite intellectual properties. Also konami: who shot my foot?
Konami after Contra Rogue Corps: "...now who shot my other foot? I'm running out of feet her people, I need answers!" *gentle wind passes through empty office*
This would be true if Konami weren't making a crapton of money off of their pachinko machines, which they do. They make enough money to not care that the actual games they make are shit.
@@KuroNoTenno Not as much money as you think, and things are getting worse. Apparently they also didn't get the right type of permits for their gambling machines and they're expecting the law to come down on them. Funny...it's almost as if a company that did something really stupid has a habit of it...
It literally said they struggled after his father died. Which makes sense. Japan is a very Male dominated economy. Even more so back when he was a child
Honestly, I think if there was a celebrity that I was going to fangirl over, Kojima is the one. MGS3 is still probably my favorite video game of all time and I absolutely loved MGS2 when I was growing up and I played MGS4 as soon as I could when it launched. I will say, I'm very glad he didn't go into film making because if he was a film director, some of my favorite games wouldn't exist today.
I'm glad you gave Hideo Kojima such a long video and yet it still seemed too short then again I'm a fan boy who could watch a video about him for an hour no problem the reason I think video games are art is cause of this man he is a pillar within industry may he stand forever!
I’m a dirty pirate through and through and I’m not even that into video games anymore but by god I am purchasing the hell out of Death Stranding, Kojima deserves all the success.
22:24 “Hello Everyone. I’M BACK!” So if Konami’s plan was to attempt and destroy a legendary game designer before he took over there company... THEY FAILED MISERABLY!
Considering Konami isn't exactly making all the money they wanted to now as they had hoped, I find it incredibly believable that they would in a desperate attempt ask Kojima to come back with full rights to his properties, just to be get slapped back with: "Not enough...you give me everything."
@@shindean where you got that information? I read that their making tons of money with those pachinko machines, but if thats not the case, i hope that Konami comes back to making games, they have many legendary franchises...
@@castellomarcos They're also currently facing legal crack downs because, surprise, gambling machines require permits that apparently Konami didn't quite clear up. None of this sounds like a successful separation from Kojima.
Hideo Kojima is one of the most respectable and lovable game developers in history, standing with the likes of Miyamoto and CD Projekt RED. He will never be forgotten and I'll always love his metal gear games, his hard work paid off and his dreams came true
@@Grinnar Fuck off dude, it's pathetic. DYKG isn't just ONE person making videos like it's fucking hard to get one video out a month or something. It's a TEAM of people making constant amounts of content every single week. And you're telling me they couldn't bother to re-allocate ANY of that production on a brand new channel that they advertised and touted to the moon and back like it was the best new thing and the most ambitious extention of the "Did You Know" brand, only to make 8 videos and then fucking quit like a bitch and not touch it for 7 months, while they seem to put out about 11 videos a month on HERE? Bull fucking shit. They were lazy, they put all that time and effort into making the channel and promoting it and then fucking gave up like some amateur kid who has no idea what they're even doing. It's bizarre that a brand that is so highly regarded, tries a big brand extention, puts so much false hope into it and then just leaves it to die and pretends it's still worth throwing into the end slate. And it's stupid that they're still promoting it even though we know for a fact that channel is dead. That's pathetic.
This was a perfect video. It captures the essence of what made hideo so passionate about his games, and threw a little bit of shade of Konami. The industry standard me change, and Kojima decides do just work harder and be more unique, that is the developer we deserve.
To be fair, he was also pretty much robbing Konami. He spent way more money for MGSV on licensing music for the tapes and hanging out with celebrities that had nothing to do with the game. Well, that and making photoscans of his waifu's feet. It's not super crazy to think that Konami was done with his antics.
@@choo_choo_ And let's not forget that he tried to take all the credit for MGSV despite having barely worked on it...God damn, as ruthless as Konami is they where right to drop his pretentious ass.
I'm not surprised Konami wanted rid the amount he was spending on MGS5. Getting Keither sutherland to play snake for no reason. also mocop for snake by him too. That alone costs an insane amount. Add in music licences too and its craazy. Keither barely even talks in the game because that would cost more AGAIN.
Dang I'm gonna appreciate and enjoy each moment of Death Stranding even more now! Love the game tho I didn't got it yet! And of course I absolutely admire the man who made such a unique game possible even after so many difficulties!! Still managed to get through and make his own team build up his own name make it real and known to everyone! Only such passion and mad attention to detail could make Death Stranding possible!
A genius , real brilliant man. A god among men in the video game industry. He’s so damn clever with game making, story, characters, back story etc. lol 80’s Kojima looked like a biker Yakuza. He’s done it all. But I really wish he would recreate Metal Gear Solid. Snake is his baby. Would be epic to play an all new Hideo Kojima Metal Gear Solid with all new story on the PlayStation 5. Please Kojima give it a try. We should all sign an online petition for Kojima to revise the Metal Gear Series! ! Please let’s make this happen before any of us die!! God forbid it be us or Kojima before we could get that out.

@@shindean Kojima doesn't need to get the rights to the games he worked on. He has been wanting to make new games for a long time but Konami kept forcing him to make more Metal Gear. Personally I would love if he continued to work on it, but he wanted to be done with that series for over a decade.
This man is both the definition of the word "madman" and the word "genius". Can't wait to get my hands on Death Stranding.
I believe the term you're looking for is "madlad" and he is the best madlad at that
I feel like he is one of the few normal humans in an industry of suits. Certainly he has "green thumb" for video games though.
The only difference between a madman and a genius is how much money you have.
Prepare to be disappointed
@@Sivrn-Val I really don't get you people who says that phrase, "Prepare to be disappointed." What if he actually liked the thing? Does that count as a win for him? If not, is that a win for you?
How would you know that he'll be disappointed? Will you be breathing down his neck while he plays the game heckling him with ASMR? Such a curious phrase for people so full of themselves.
When Team Silent, and Kojima Productions has left the company, Konami went into a massive downfall. Big Business mistake when Konami thought that Mobile gaming and Pachinko machines are "the future" of gaming.
Except there was no downfall. They are doing well enough financially that they don't have to care that their actual games like Rouge Corps are shit.
unfortunately konami stocks sky rocketed after this ordeal because of the higher ups wanting nothing to do with games like mgs or castlevania or silent hills , instead they are focusing hard on micro transactions and mobile games and it shows that that's what raking in the money and I expect that the age of incredible games has either already ended (except things like half life alyx , death stranding ,control , resident evil remakes and upcoming re8 cyberpunk) or is at it's end and all we will be left with is mobile games and things like pes fifa madden fortnite valorant etc.
@@martin518441 tbh it's the same with the film industry
@@martin518441 I agree, but I was thinking the problem Konomi will have at some point, is that they wont be remembered for doing anything truly spectacular. Just a tiny footnote in history. Mobile games are far from that. It will take a LONG time for people to forget Zelda & Mario. Konami have their own 'Mario' but it seems they dont really know what to do with it.
Those things make 10x money than a well made video game. That’s the unfortunate reality of capitalism. Games back in the day were so much better because developers put their heart and soul into their projects. Now everything is just a cash grab.
Kojima is the japanese keanu reeves, everyone likes him, he's humble but most importantly he is an immortal vampire who never ages and can destroy society whenever he sees fit
Like Araki?
"he's humble" LMAO
"He's humble" ? xdd Have you played MGS V?
@@mooseevers764 be honest. How many drugs are you on?
@@mooseevers764 You ok? I think you on the wrong comment section.
Can we just take a moment to show some love for Kojima's super-supportive mom?
Just had an epiphany: Kojima should direct the Terminator franchise.
Would do better than the hack Tim Miller.
Yes
@Magic Dasomatic: THIS.
No. They should leave it alone and... Wait. This might actually be one of the best ideas i heard in a long time. I'm pure hype.
Well the lore can't get any more convoluted than it already is
"Wanting it to be the best game on the PlayStation!" And it was
Not even his first time. Metal Gear 2 on the MSX was objectively one of the best games, if not the best game, of its generation. It was way ahead of its time.
@@gilbertgotfried Not only Metal Gear 2. You forget about MGS on the PSX and MGS2 on the PS2. Those were also ahead of their time!
Very true
Oddworld has that title bro
Crash Bandicoot, Spyro, and Final Fantasy VII would rival Metal Gear Solid.
I love how every time a new image of Hideo is shown, he is wearing a new pair of glasses
One persons dreams, creativity, vision and passion is a entire fandom as is all of his creations from Snatcher to the the last Metal Gear game.
Hideo Kojima is a inspiration that anything is possible and that we shouldn't dwell on unforeseen circumstances but instead be positive and take each stride forward with confidence and dignity, the state or quality of being worthy of honour or respect. 😊✌
Just finished Death Stranding and watched a few Behind the Scenes videos. This man truly dedicates himself to his art form and not only makes kickass games but uses it as a platform to pass on some seriously deep and and thought provoking ideas. He has done this since MGS1 and continues doing it in DS. Folks can call him pretentious or whatever, but damn, you cannot deny this man’s absolutely phenomenal talent.
Keep making ‘em Kojima, I’ll be waiting for you on the beach.
That fact that his mother plays his games absolutely warms my heart
So I read the top part of the title and had a panic attack
"From metal gear to death"
Then read the rest of it and had a good laugh
I didn't think I'd see you here xD guess you're more than a Jontron fan ;p you're cool ^^
Japanese: Develop, Debug, and then release. Patches are more of Add-ons. No bug to fix.
The rest: Develop, Debug less, then release. Patches are bug fix, add-ons and etcs.
I'm getting chills dude. I love this man soo much. Kojima is the true hero.
His folks sound like a big reason for his success, that's really cool.
'Kojima heard rumours of Sony's new console: the Playstation. When he finally saw the device he set out to create a new Metal Gear title, wanting it to be best game on the Playstation.'
He bloody well succeeded, didn't he?
I just can't punt in words how much I love this man and what his games mean to me. Just THANK YOU Hideo Kojima 🙏
Death stranding is a masterpiece!!!! Phenomenal in all aspects.
Metal Gear Solid got me back into gaming after taking a few years off after the N64 launch. Kojima is a true creative genius and we are lucky he chose to make games instead of films or TV.
dude, why does he look older when he was younger?
Maybe he was unhappier. 😄
He is actually the Benjamin button of Japan
Nanomachines, son.
@@GuyOnAChair That actually can be the case. Stress does an extreme amount of symptoms on the body that we are only just starting to understand and take seriously. Also human just have this awareness about them when a person is truly happy or passionate. Kojima smiling is wholesome, and I love it when he does.
Sakurai probably shared his anti-aging secret with him, seeing that they're friends.
Great video man, made me a bit emotional when the MGS2 theme started. I remember playing it for the first time when I was 12 or 13 and being absolutely blown away. I have played it yearly or more since, and have had it on every platform. The entire series is incredible I can't wait to play Death Stranding.
Thank god Kojima survived them experiences. I LOVE METAL GEAR SOLID!
These mini docs are my absolute favorite videos from this channel. I love them!
This successfully made me hyped for Death Stranding while before I couldn't give much of a toss.
Thanks a ton DYKG!
Me too!
@@RandoLePerson Jeez the game isn't even out yet.
Honestly it depends entirely on how the mechanics will be implemented. All of those can be done without it being a chore.
You're already judging the game before it's out. Try to keep an open mind. If it's shit, it's shit. If it's good, it's good. That said we can't judge it releases.
@@noirscape_ The game is completely unconventional from it's approach to gameplay not so different from how Ico, Shadow of the Colossus, or even Journey approaches it's game design on massive area explore it's game's world. If you expect every game out there to be non stop action, then there is no need to play anything other than back to back action. The game clearly has barren world to explore for it's hiking aspect of trying to course through the experience, plus more from it's game description, twitter.com/ZhugeEX/status/1133841855735582720
@@noirscape_ Even that not entirely ture. The game is unconventional as it's not trying to be for everyone. Based on it's reviews so far, t’s a polarizing game though, some people love, some people dislike and it’s not for them. It’s not gonna be for everybody and you need to know what you’re in for before you spend money on it and have realistic expectations for it if plan on playing it.
Dont be. It's one big chore
The man is inspirational, One of my favorite developers.
Seeing this guy work so hard just to have his name removed from his own creation really stings. Im glad he's in a better place now.
@Southern Slushie Chan lol that was the video
Atleast he got his name in every mission in mgs5
DidYouKnowGaming: makes a Hideo Kojima video.
Me: "What took you so long?"
Kept you waiting, huh?
@@Freefork I got that reference
> A "Did you know" about Kojima
> It's almost 30 minutes long
Of course it is. lol
Make us proud, Boss.

16:02 All I can think about is that ladder and "What a thrill......."
That song is just so good. Everything just works.
Cynthia killed it for real on that one.
This video is amazing, perfect timing just in time for the release of his new game of which I'm very excited to try out when it comes out next week!
This is my favorite video from this channel so far! Great work describing the accomplishments of such a talented storyteller!
I'm a simple man. I see a video about Hideo Kojima, I watch it.
Perfect upload date, I met him this morning!
that story about how he spent all that time alone, I could definitely see that playing into his inspiration for death stranding and connecting with people... makes a lot of sense! I think the original MGS was the first game of his I ever completed (though I likely have played the MSX prequels a little bit prior) definitely my favorite playstation game ever! I did also eventually get to play Policenauts after the fan-translation was released about a decade ago.
10:08
Solid Snake cosplay is me! I always followed the channel here, it was a surprise to see my picture!
Konami: i know! Lets fire all our expensive employees to save money. We can just have anyone make the games. Customers just want to see their favorite intellectual properties.
Also konami: who shot my foot?
Konami after Contra Rogue Corps: "...now who shot my other foot? I'm running out of feet her people, I need answers!" *gentle wind passes through empty office*
This would be true if Konami weren't making a crapton of money off of their pachinko machines, which they do. They make enough money to not care that the actual games they make are shit.
@@KuroNoTenno Not as much money as you think, and things are getting worse.
Apparently they also didn't get the right type of permits for their gambling machines and they're expecting the law to come down on them. Funny...it's almost as if a company that did something really stupid has a habit of it...
@@shindean Wait a second. I didn't hear that one. What's the source on this?
@@KuroNoTenno Jimquisition, he always mentions the references. I believe it was last month on a particular Konami notice.
Kojima is such an inspirational guy and his games are some of my favourite ever and have brought me such joy it's unbelievable
0:22 "this is how a POOR KID with dreams...."
0:42 "his family was somewhat rich
????????
It literally said they struggled after his father died. Which makes sense. Japan is a very Male dominated economy. Even more so back when he was a child
whoa....TYVM for uploading this, we're only know him in famous ways but none of his struggling ways
Will you STOP editing these videos like the people died?? Giving me anxiety, man.
10:09 That Solid Snake close to Kojima is my brother during Brasil Game Show 2017! Thank you for choosing this picture, DYKG! Awesome video!
Honestly, I think if there was a celebrity that I was going to fangirl over, Kojima is the one. MGS3 is still probably my favorite video game of all time and I absolutely loved MGS2 when I was growing up and I played MGS4 as soon as I could when it launched.
I will say, I'm very glad he didn't go into film making because if he was a film director, some of my favorite games wouldn't exist today.
I'm glad you gave Hideo Kojima such a long video and yet it still seemed too short then again I'm a fan boy who could watch a video about him for an hour no problem the reason I think video games are art is cause of this man he is a pillar within industry may he stand forever!
I love Hideo Kojima! Thank you for making my favourite video game series, Metal Gear Solid!
Hideo's life is so inspiring and surprisingly wholesome with the anecdotes about his family. I had no idea.
Man FUCK Konami
I’m a dirty pirate through and through and I’m not even that into video games anymore but by god I am purchasing the hell out of Death Stranding, Kojima deserves all the success.
I cried.
Can't wait for Death Stranding on PC.
he's 56 but look like he is in his late 30s
Damn he got that Sakurai body
@@jcast1749 There are good friend,you know
It’s a clone
22:24 “Hello Everyone. I’M BACK!”
So if Konami’s plan was to attempt and destroy a legendary game designer before he took over there company... THEY FAILED MISERABLY!
Considering Konami isn't exactly making all the money they wanted to now as they had hoped, I find it incredibly believable that they would in a desperate attempt ask Kojima to come back with full rights to his properties, just to be get slapped back with: "Not enough...you give me everything."
@@shindean where you got that information? I read that their making tons of money with those pachinko machines, but if thats not the case, i hope that Konami comes back to making games, they have many legendary franchises...
@@castellomarcos They're also currently facing legal crack downs because, surprise, gambling machines require permits that apparently Konami didn't quite clear up.
None of this sounds like a successful separation from Kojima.
true statement. but the quote is wrong. its more like : "Hello everyban. im back."
He will destroy himself in the end
"You're a hideous kojima to me"
- Jontron to egoraptor 2012
Hideo Kojima is one of the most respectable and lovable game developers in history, standing with the likes of Miyamoto and CD Projekt RED. He will never be forgotten and I'll always love his metal gear games, his hard work paid off and his dreams came true
Curious to see DYKG still promoting his Food channel on the endslate, even though there hasn't been an upload in 7 months.
lol, they did 8 uploads before giving up. Pathetic.
@@lI-tm2pn "pathetic." Not everyone can have the free time you have.
@@Grinnar Fuck off dude, it's pathetic.
DYKG isn't just ONE person making videos like it's fucking hard to get one video out a month or something. It's a TEAM of people making constant amounts of content every single week. And you're telling me they couldn't bother to re-allocate ANY of that production on a brand new channel that they advertised and touted to the moon and back like it was the best new thing and the most ambitious extention of the "Did You Know" brand, only to make 8 videos and then fucking quit like a bitch and not touch it for 7 months, while they seem to put out about 11 videos a month on HERE?
Bull fucking shit.
They were lazy, they put all that time and effort into making the channel and promoting it and then fucking gave up like some amateur kid who has no idea what they're even doing. It's bizarre that a brand that is so highly regarded, tries a big brand extention, puts so much false hope into it and then just leaves it to die and pretends it's still worth throwing into the end slate. And it's stupid that they're still promoting it even though we know for a fact that channel is dead. That's pathetic.
The leap from Metal Gear 1 to Metal Gear 2 was seismic. Like 100x better in every way.
I'll always appreciate Kojimbo for the Metal Gear Series and Snatcher/Policenauts. ZOE2 was pretty good too.
2:42 the use of the father and son theme was perfect
Today, on *_"E! True Hollywood Story"..._*
music plays ua-cam.com/video/XZ_F0AUI5RE/v-deo.html
This was a perfect video. It captures the essence of what made hideo so passionate about his games, and threw a little bit of shade of Konami. The industry standard me change, and Kojima decides do just work harder and be more unique, that is the developer we deserve.
The man who got robbed by Konami. Rest in peace Metal Gear Solid...
Kojima is a perfectionist, which means he'll have the patience to wait out all the new assholes at Konami just to get his baby back.
To be fair, he was also pretty much robbing Konami. He spent way more money for MGSV on licensing music for the tapes and hanging out with celebrities that had nothing to do with the game. Well, that and making photoscans of his waifu's feet.
It's not super crazy to think that Konami was done with his antics.
@@choo_choo_ And let's not forget that he tried to take all the credit for MGSV despite having barely worked on it...God damn, as ruthless as Konami is they where right to drop his pretentious ass.
F
I'm not surprised Konami wanted rid the amount he was spending on MGS5. Getting Keither sutherland to play snake for no reason. also mocop for snake by him too. That alone costs an insane amount. Add in music licences too and its craazy.
Keither barely even talks in the game because that would cost more AGAIN.
An amazing video for one of the most iconic creators in gaming history.
Great video! The intro really made it feel like it was VH1's "Behind the Music" but with gaming.
I'm not afraid to say I have gone a bit crazy in the past trying to analyze Kojima's games. best game developer of all time !
Well I feel sad about Silent hills and Metal Gear V, but I feel also happy about Kojima productions and hope the best for Death stranding!
The landscape of gaming is all the better because Kojima exists.
Dang I'm gonna appreciate and enjoy each moment of Death Stranding even more now!
Love the game tho I didn't got it yet! And of course I absolutely admire the man who made such a unique game possible even after so many difficulties!!
Still managed to get through and make his own team build up his own name make it real and known to everyone!
Only such passion and mad attention to detail could make Death Stranding possible!
Incredible work on this. The saga continues, like a book with pages unwritten. I hope that Kojima gets a chance to watch, and smile too.
Kojima's such a weirdo. It's amazing.
P.T.'s fate will NEVER not piss me off
17:41 I don't tknow why seeing him in a Shaun the Sheep T-Shirt is so adorably funny to me
LOL!
Man has excellent taste what do you expect
A genius , real brilliant man. A god among men in the video game industry. He’s so damn clever with game making, story, characters, back story etc. lol 80’s Kojima looked like a biker Yakuza. He’s done it all. But I really wish he would recreate Metal Gear Solid. Snake is his baby. Would be epic to play an all new Hideo Kojima Metal Gear Solid with all new story on the PlayStation 5. Please Kojima give it a try. We should all sign an online petition for Kojima to revise the Metal Gear Series! ! Please let’s make this happen before any of us die!! God forbid it be us or Kojima before we could get that out.
Hideo’s parents are the true mvp
This is one of the best videos you guys have ever released. Bravo!
Damn bro, the last quote gave me the goosebumps
