Ghost in the Shell Director on Death Stranding: "Movies Can't Compete"

Ghost in the Shell director Mamoru Oshii comments on Hideo Kojima's newest game, Death Stranding. In the interview, he shares his feelings on the game's accomplishments, the risks Kojima took in making this type of game, and what that level of work involved must be doing to his health.

Only a few game developers that can take a risk. Kojima is one of the few.

For me, I think Death Stranding is a great game. It makes no difference to me if others don't like it. To each their own.

CaptainHenry9161663d ago (Edited 1663d ago )

I agree. Sony should buy and acquire Kojima productions since they are both risk takers and not afraid to take a risk. Off topic I would like to see Kojima make a horror game like PT

Well, technically Sony is not taking a big risk because Kojima is well known.

CaptainHenry9161662d ago (Edited 1662d ago )

Fair enough

I think some don't understand his point of view and label this game overrated. Just like some think Avengers is the finest story telling in cinema. To each to their own but at least give him credit for trying something new?

Trolls cant offer credit where its due, they can only focus on the negative because unique or different ideas makes them uncomfortable. This discomfort creates confusion and frustration in simpletons, so they come online looking for others to think in the same way, but when they see such critical acclaim, they get angry. And thus a new troll is born.

The circle of (online) life!

They also seem bitter. It's really sad I almost feel sorry for them!

BlackDoomAx1662d ago

You can tell the same for fanboys.

Well, that settles it. Masterpiece.

To be honest, Narrative in gaming has surpassed the movie industry. Movies plays it way too safe.

Xaevi1662d ago

Games have always had the potential to be so much more than movies and books. It's a shame that the industry has been hell bent on pushing multiplayer and microtransansactions as the standard
