He never really seems to confirm there is supposed to be something greater their in substance, though there seems to be. Killer 7, I think is the best as far as stories go if we're going interpreting Suda 51 stories. |
I'm pretty sure Suda51 purposefully tries to convey a message with No More Heroes. I doubt that the people who interpretted No More Heroes got it 100% right. But Suda`s critique of the American Dream (chasing money and social status) and traditional notions of masculinity (male obsession with aggression and sexual conquest) was quite obvious during the Death Metal battle (their conversation before the fight and Travis`monologue during the fight)

Most people who interpretted No More Heroes seem to think the game is a critique of gamers and the gaming industry status quo. I could see that as a possibility but I don`t think it`s as obvious as the attack on the American Dream and traditional notions of masculinity.
