and have you played any game from Hideo?

Only MGS4. Hated the control system of it and the stealth mechanics. I loved the simplicity and efficiency of the controls in the Splinter Cell series. Prefered simplicity in game mechanics too. Did not want RPG elements when I want to focus on stealth tactics. Because it wasn't "realistic" the stealth was also non-intuititive. You couldn't simply use common sense, but had to be an "insider" of the series. Did not like that.

if you only played one game then how do you know that the "Value went down" like Square ?

MGS wasn't meant to be realistic it was made to be fun and deep, and thats what they're best at.


I meant the value of these fucking "announcements" that Kojima and SE makes, can't you fucking read, or ask for clarification earlier instead of asking me these other questions?

I fucking hate their stupid website countdowns. The attitude these two devs hold that they think the entire world is just waiting, 24/7, to lap up any shit that comes out of their mouths.

I don't think Square Enix or Kojima are the best fucking devs in the world. But even if they are, they both need a reality check, as they both have some kind of god complex.

And I put quotation marks around "realism", because I don't actually want realism in the sense that it's close to reality, but in that it caters to one's common sense. And I think that depth best comes from simplicity.

You realise everyone does announcements like these right?

Capcom does it.

But they don't hype up (or at least have obnoxious fans like you) hype those countdowns to absolutely collosal proportion, and talk about their games as if they're going to cure AIDs (Kojima) or if they're going to sell over 9000 million copies (SE).
