wrong del toro buddy
They promised that very early on, and then soon retracted that statement. It is doubtful how much of this project even existed at that point.This game is still launching on PC some time after PS4, right?
During today's special Death Stranding presentation lead by Geoff Keighley and featuring Hideo Kojima himself, we learned a good chunk of new information surrounding the game and the engine it will be running on.
Kojima's new studio Kojima Productions will in fact utilize the Decima engine, which was developed by Horizon Zero Dawn's studio Guerrilla Games, for Death Stranding. PlayStation 4 system architect Mark Cerny was onstage with Guerrilla Games director Hermen Hulst to chat about Decima, which is coincidentally known as "Dejima" in Japan.
Utilizing the Decima engine, which is more than just rendering, as Hulst remarked, is appropriate when it comes to working on "open worlds," according to Hideo Kojima. While the company is hard at work putting the game together, a smaller version of Kojima Productions will be launching from within Guerrilla Games in Amsterdam.
This will be another third person stealth game? Kojima hadn't done anything else.
We´ll see. I have the opinion that Kojima is the type of creative genius that needs bounds and restraints to not get out of control and maintain some kind of focus.
Konami is evil and shit, but they gave him a lot of time and money to make MGSV. If they hadn't forced him to release, he would have spent another five years spending tons of money, hiring new B grade actors acquaintances to make motion capture and 20 lines of voice.
Sony need him for hardcore gamers trust, image and loyalty, but they are business sharks and I guess they know how to deal with this stuff. I hope they have given him limited freedom and understanding support. I think this is the kind of environment where Kojima can make his best. Too much freedom or too much control, and his fail would be the most epic one in the last 5 years of gaming.
PD: maybe you think I'm mad, but my main concern with Kojima is how much mesmerized is with western current culture. I follow him on twitter and he is obsessed with Wonder Woman, Blade runner 2017 and other recent shitty movies. For me this is worse signal than 2 years without showing gameplay.
If he likes so much the declined present western popular culture, something is very wrong. People like Japanese culture in part because is fresh air compared with the dull and rotted western one. Western mainstream gaming is boring nowadays, the last thing we need is another westernized mainstream creator. We all felt in love with MGS because it's craziness, creativity, attention to detail, weirdness. We are not going to get that with a popamolized Kojima fascinated with Horizon Zero Dawn or GTA like he has been recently.
Isn't the guy on the left the Star of David Wars producer man?
actual gameplay
What fantasyland do you live in? Kojima paved the way for crap like Uncharted. Kojima and other prominent Japanese developers pioneered and popularized 'cinematic gaming' trends like quick time events, cover-based shooting and having hours of elaborately choreographed, expensive cutscenes (with awful writing and voice acting to boot). Guess who's responsible for funding Naughty Dog's, David Cage's and Guerrilla's games? Sony, a Japanese company.We´ll see.
