Legendary Castlevania Creator IGA Talks Life After Konami

Gamespot:"As of this morning, the legendary creator of Castlevania: Symphony of the Night, Koji Igarashi, is back. He parted ways with Konami last year after a series of ill-fitting assignments, and it didn't take long for him to forge a new path as an independent developer, seeking help from friends in Japan and abroad. Freed from the constraints and budgets of a major publisher, Igarashi chose to revisit the side-scrolling action genre, and the result is Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night. This "Igavania," as Igarashi describes it, brings you into a mysterious castle where you must search for clues, items, and hidden paths."

Interesting that Konami is releasing nothing of note and still enjoying high profits. I guess this is the allure to companies.

It was probably due to the half-hearted release of the Metal Gear Solid Collection v1.

Imagine the extra sales Konami could’ve made if it had put some effort into it.

Half hearted? MGS: MC is the best collection of Metal Gear games you can get with tons of bonus content.

Why are you mad? Because they didn't make the games 4K so you can see the low resolution textures and warping better? Most of you cry babies never even touched the MSX Metal Gears.

Of course, they rereleased MGS series on modern platforms. Thank You Mr. Kojima.
