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.
Luckily, everyone seems to like Death Stranding 2
I’m replaying the first game it’s great. It’s not for everyone no doubt. There are still a lot of people playing it.
Then why do a sequel straight away?
Why not something else like maybe a horror game similar to Silent Hills but rebranded into a new IP.
How world affairs shaped the core theme around ‘connection’ in Death Stranding 2: On the Beach.
VGC travelled to Kojima Productions to play 30 hours of Death Stranding 2 and speak with Hideo Kojima.
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.

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.
