WHAT A THRIIIILLL :CommiePOGGERS:

After last fall's grand Silent Hill revival reveal event, something similar happening with MGS wouldn't be a surprise, as MGS remake rumours have been going aroud for about as long the Silent Hill 2 remake ones have, and those turned out to be exactly on the money

Kinda sad the Metal Gear Solid voice actor in question wasn't David Hayter :kitty-cri:

    However, does this also extend to sympathy for the DPRK, or China, for example?

    At the very least he wasn't a lib about China as of 2022: https://twitter.com/HIDEO_KOJIMA_EN/status/1513325176569888770).

    He even recently recommended a Chinese movie from during the cultural revolution period, but I have no idea where you would find this movie: https://twitter.com/HIDEO_KOJIMA_EN/status/1525322663878852608

    Given that these tweets are well after all the uighur and hk propaganda I think they're notable.

      Mr Kojima, dont you know about tiananmen masacre? About Uighur genocide and culture annihilation? The way china handled corona virus so that now whole world is still suffering and millions died? I mean, if the fan is chinese, thats ok, but you have to remember, what real china is

        Yeah I saw that one and had a giggle. Lmao.

        Kojima sees this shit in his feed all the time, keeps posting. He knows what's up.

        Revisiting this post 10 months later...

        That tweet is gone. Its disappearance makes me pretty suspicious.

        I mean, he still might be like "China were good when Mao" with criticisms and issues with current China... I don't know. But that's still notably better than lib. I kinda think he wouldn't be recommending anything Chinese at all if he were like all libs and just totally bought into the anti-china propaganda though, we know he's political and that he's seen all that shit.

          I mean, yeah, no you're right. It's weird that he ends up portraying the Soviets as bad guys in MGS V then, though. Maybe that's a publisher imposition, who knows. :shrug-outta-hecks:

            I mean, I guess they're villains since they're enemies but they're just generic mooks that populate the Afganistan map. There is not a single Soviet character in the entire game. No motivations or characterisation to point to.

            One of the reasons I dislike 5 is how its plot seems to just take place in its own weird anachronistic magical parasite bubble on two open world maps mostly disconnected from the 1980s setting its supposed to take place in

            Snake Eater and Peace Walker took care to incorporate real world elements, events and organisations to immerse you in the time periods they took place in.

            5 feels like a generic scifi military anime like 4
