Metal Gear Solid has been a leader in pushing to include the LGBT community in the gaming world. However one writer for Vice fears that if there is any truth to the theory that Quiet is Chico, the character will only play into the transphobic rhetoric of pop-culture. This is a look at how Hideo Kojima has introduced a verity of LGBT character to the gaming world and how several characters have become gay icons.
Hideo Kojima has revealed a new feature in Death Stranding 2, promising a more accessible experience for newcomers to action games.
ehm okeeey.
i guess i get it, but shouldn't be a difficulty setting be the solution and not a skip feature?
Love the first game but the boss battles were crap, especially the Cliff ones. All Cliff encounters are exactly the same, only in different environments. Furthermore, you have to do the same thing 4 times! No different forms, no different patterns, nothing.
I mean that's a nice thought and all but if you are going to get the sequel to this I'm guessing you are going to be one of those fans who managed to do the boss battles in the original.
I don't think this is going to bring in new fans or ones who didn't like the first one in general.
I understand if it was a brand new story with new characters where you get a clean fresh slate to try and bring in everyone again but a straight up sequel...it has it's fans and I bet they managed to get through the first game no problem.
A weird idea for a sequel to have, since players need to beat the bosses of the first game, unless he plans on making the bosses more complicated this time around which I highly doubt. Honestly it's a horrible feature, for a game about the struggle of going around to deliver things, to let you skip fighting which is a part of the struggle.
Hideo Kojima has revealed that Kojima Productions’ PHYSINT will enter phase 2 of its development after Death Stranding 2: On the Beach & OD.
Kojima: At this age, I can’t help but think about how much longer I’ll be able to stay “creative.” I want to keep going for the rest of my life, but is it 10 more years? 20? Every day feels like I’m racing against the clock. Even now, at 87, Ridley Scott is still active. And back when he was past 60—my current stage in life—he created the masterpiece “Gladiator.”
Normally I would have just gone into the comment section and rebutted the writers entire point, however as a long time fan of the series I felt that I had to write an actually opinion pointing out his fallacious fear over the series. If the theory is true then it could be assured that Quiet will break the stereotypes that has defined the transgender community. Yes I know some working on the game have denied the theory but come on this is a Kojima game.
"I know the Major better than anyone else!"
Random side note, I was always under the impression the Volgin was bisexual. Am I wrong on this? He seemed to show some form of sexual interest in Eve at least.
