    Endless? Pretty sure you can count them. They have numbers on the name.

    Quit fanboying for a second and realize there are real time and money constraints, you cannot endlessly shovel features into software at a whim.

    MGSV going open world was dangerous enough.

      4. Metal Gear 2 1990

      10. Metal Gear Solid 3 2004

      At this point, Konami shutter kojima productions, throw away the fox engine they had made for all Konami developers to use and fired the goose that laid their only golden eggs. At no point does kojima go more than 4 years between new products for Konami.

      If you want to look at it from the purely business perspective, then you can make the argument that their new ceo wanted out of the video games business to focus on pachinko. That’s a valid thing to make claims around. They basically killed off all their video game products.

      But if you want to claim that that the game just needed to ship regardless, then well, reviews, critics, players, consumers, they’ll all disagree with you there. The number one complaint is that this game wasn’t finished. And as we’ve learnt Konami seemed to have bad blood that made them vindictive against the developers of the game that likely made things worse.

              I don’t think I’ve ever played a single one of his games. But I still recognize an icon. God, why are you choosing such a stupid hill to die on?

                    Hate does. He has some reason to hate this series and Hideo Kojima. Nevertheless, that reasin has nothing to do with the argument at hand, and as such, it is stupid to argue, especially when most of Kojima’s games are critically acclaimed.

                  You are, clearly. You’re getting absolutely shredded. Reviewers, sales figures, and this community, all vigorously disagree with you. None of your statements withstand even the barests scrutiny.

                  You seem to be mistaking your personal preferences for the wider consensus.
