It'd be a fustercluck beyond belief. The guy was hardly the one writing the (pretty good and polished) engine of MGSV. He was responsible for why i never finished it. Let's see:
- 7 missions, all other missions are literally the same 7 - and i do mean 'same missions', not 'very similar missions' - with additional objectives added.
- The story is worthless, up it's own arse pretentious drivel with no point to it other than to show how 'unpredictable' and 'original' the author is - aka cheap artsy. Masking its total inability to convey a message with a 3rd rate 'mystery'.
- Gratz it has the one single absolutely most uninteresting companion in any game i have played to date, with the most boring, lazy and infantile concept behind it too. Seriously, a character that can't communicate and can't wear clothes? Was it written by an insecure teenager WHILE masturbating?
- Other NPCs aren't even cliches, they're images from ciggy packages and B-movie dvd cases.
And it goes on, i could add more - but do i need to? In what world an author of a game with no story to speak of, no missions to speak off and no NPCs to speak of even remotely could be considered to be a part of the creative team of a top5 rpg/adventure?

Watching it in the sensenof a movie it can be intersting.
But playing parcel simulator... Nah, not honna happen.
Have you heard about those truck simulator game or farming simulator ?
Death Stranding, that game is classic Hideo Kojima. So bizzarre. So excellent.
Tedious, and yet serene. It does a really good job at making you feel terrified, and isolated. A few hours in I realized it was actually as much a horror game as it was a walking simulator.
PLUS. It brings something new to gaming with it's physics/hiking/carrying mechanic. It actually felt like I'm hiking over uneven terrain with a crazy backpack. Innovation, and offering new ideas and new mechanics to the industry and pushing it forward is really important. It's not just a game but a proof of concept. I do a lot of hiking, and it FELT like hiking carrying a massive weight. You lose your focus and you'll trip over a rock and eat crap.
It has it's own vision, it has it's own message, it innovates, it plays well, looks great, and is consistent with itself and it's world.
That's really important, I'll say it again. Plays well. Looks great. Is consistent. Innovates.
So yeah, a lot of people could learn from his quality.

Hideo Kojima, Badass game Dev. for all you haterz out there only one thing to say ..... put the crack pipe down and GTFO!
Hideo Kojima is like a genius when he's in his wheel house. But his plots don't ever make any sense. I want CP to make sense.
Your higher logic, your heavy use of dialectics, and your "I'm not a multi-account" aura have definitely convinced me.
Right now I cancel my account, i'm going to quit drugs and I will not participate in this forum again.
For you, maybe. For quite a few million people, death stranding is a masterpiece.
Nothing to do with Molyneux bullshitcube... Or that fucking weird kid-friend-videogame he tried to do.
Didn't they turn out to be nothing but a pre-rendered pitch for Kinect that he convinced microsoft was real?
Very fan of dialectics here

Not sure, but it was creeppy AF
This is patently false. Firstly, with maybe the exception of MGSV is respected for making truly unique and yes, industry defining games and is not known just for MGS as you claim. You may have found Death Stranding boring but enough people consider the game to be an interesting and markedly different game that your opinion isn't really the mainline view of the game. I have never played it so I can't comment. Going beyond that, Snatcher, Policenauts and Zone of Ender's are incredibly highly regarded and respected for their ingenuity, so much so that people are asking for sequels to those games to this day.
To suggest he is anything like Peter Molynuex is laughable. There are criticisms of Hideo Kojima that I think can be considered valid, like his infantile and frankly sexist depiction of women and sexuality, but to dismiss the scope and influence of his work on video games art and culture would be a mistake.
He certainly does live up his own asshole and considers himself a genius though, I will agree on that but I don't really care what his personality is like in that regard. Maybe if he were an abusive person I might look at his work differently but just being a bit of a conceited weirdo isn't the biggest crime in the world.
As for the OP, I don't see why Kojima would ever work with this IP, but if he did I think he could create something interesting with it. CDPR's idea of cyberpunk already has the juvenile sexuality of a Kojima game so that's already something to work from. I'm sure Kojima could probably handle the philosophical and political themes of the game a lot better than the writers of CDPR, though this isn't saying much.
LOL No thanks. I've yet to play a Kojima game I liked. They are too long winded, cinematics go on for far too long and the story ....just no. It's his style and I'm sure some ppl like it but just no.

Hate to break it to you but Cyberpunk 2077 doesn't need "saving". Polish and improvements, sure but certainly not saving and it's not a debate or an opinion. The games performance speaks for itself.

Indeed its not an opinion. Ask sony, and any ps player, for that matter, if needs saving

The problem is, in Cyberpunk Kojima Johnny Silverhand would in fact not just be a construct of a terrorist taking over V's mind. V would a reincarnation of Johnny that was made by the Arasaka Corporation using AI created nanomachines that utilized time vortexes to get Johnny's gene's from the past. But unbeknownst to Araska an AI construct known as Big Blue Screen has actually tweeked V to become the sentient CPU core for a giant walking tank that fires nukes once he is activated with the biochip containing the original Johnny consciousness. Why a walking tank firing nukes you say? To start a war between the humans on the space station and the Arasaka corporation when it goes berserk.
They can't do this themselves obviously because on the space station are cyberborgs that are also psychics known as the Majestic 7, who are like all women in various animal themed cybersuits that have immense power and can read AI's minds because the AI also have souls. But because V is a living being who has had his mind rewritten by Johnny, who is a construct of a once living being subjected to Soul Killer, he would not have a soul and therefore the Majestic 7 wouldn't be able to predict his actions thus giving him the edge. ect, ect, ect.
You need a hundred times more nanomachines, plot twists that make no sense, characters that change personality from one game to another because yes, characters that do not change at all from one game to another despite having experiences that should make them change even a little (yes, Kojima does both at the same time, a feat of to be proud I guess). Villains who are good guys but then they go back to being villains and then they go back to being good guys and then they are hypnotized by putting Saburo's hand and they think they are Saburo. Villains who are good boys but then they become villains again (more of this ad nauseam) and then it turns out that the villain is a doctor who was there by chance and not the real protagonist, flamenco dancer vampires, emo-cyborgs, femme fatale with magic powers because yes ( I'm talking about you, Miss-Fortune), plot holes the size of a mammoth, hours (literally) of cutscenes and codec conversations where you don't touch the controller and you watch a little girl fry an egg in high definition while talking to a guy who wanted to have sex with his stepmother and stepsister (or something like that)... I could go on to infinity with this.
THEN and only then, will you have something like a game made by Kojima.
Cyberpunk has its own flaws, I don't worship it on an altar. But one of its good points is precisely the story and characters. So I want to see Kojima as far from Cyberpunk as possible.
PS: I don't like Kojima, just in case it wasn't clear.
