Hideo Kojima says he’s left staff a ‘USB stick of game ideas’ for after he dies. He wants kojima productions to continue creating original games after his death

Why does it feel like Kojima is suddenly all over reddit? Is he just getting interviewed a lot as press for DS2?

Well the last time a games industry figure “left” a USB drive, it didn’t go that well.
StonemasonStudios
Can you even imagine how psychotic the ideas in that drive are?

Kojima: dies
Disney: well pay you 2 billion dollars if you let us defile all his games, his company and possibly his corpse

in certain shows this is known as a death flag lol

Why not just create a studio that isn’t built around one man’s ideas? You know other creatives can have good ideas too right?

Now I wanna see the heißt movie about getting that USB stick, and in the end after much trouble, it’s just a word doc saying ‘you won’.

I still can’t believe this man is 60. Doesn’t look like it at all. Hopefully he still has many years left in him to create.

Don’t leave that at a medieval times.

Kojima’s personality engram will be uploaded to a relic chip and he will live on forever

It’s just a 4k rip of the movie *Drive* starring Ryan Gosling.

Why does Kojima have such a culture following online? Like even gamewise he made metal gear and death stranding, which are fine games but not enough to have this crazy of a following online. It just always seems so fake whenever i see anything to do with him since he could have an apple and for some reason people would act like it is the best thing in the world.

There is going to be some crazy fever dream stuff on that stick.

Imagine being the guy who has to read some bullshit like “you play as a telepathic dog whose brain contains all the secrets of the american intelligence state, and the player must purchase and shovel real dog food into the system to keep it alive” out to the team after your boss dies

If the title was just “game dev leaves USB stick”, my first guess would have been Kojima.
sexisdivine
Why am I suddenly imagining him announcing to the world “I’ve hidden several usb sticks with original game ideas and clues on how to find them, *dies peacefully with a smile*.” And then everyone goes nuts looking for em.

Not going to lie…I’d pay for that USB stick.
JefferyTheQuaxly
i mean if i had a ton of crazy ideas i wanted the world to see id probly leave notes for them to be released eventually too.

Just a text file with stuff like
“Agent consumes food through butthole”
“Jesus/bible based horror game(rob zombie?)”
“Taco stand, realistic physics, answers questions of life and death”

This sounds incredibly narcissistic. As if no one else at the company is capable of coming up with original game ideas lol.

The most overrated game director I’ve seen.

The last thing ANY of us would want to have in the back of our minds is the image of a news article with the words “HIDEO KOJIMA DIES” is the headline.😓

One idea on the drive is a tactical espionage action game to retrieve the same very drive.

we can only hope someone as crazy (the good kind of crazy) picks it up afterwards

I still think about how he looked into making the smell of blood come off the CD as it spun in the console for MGS. That kind of creativity astounds me.

Do those instructions include anti-micro transactions for future Kojima profit streams?
Embarrassed_Adagio28
It better just be a list of new metal gear ideas because all his other games are boring af imo. He is the most overrated game director of our lifetime.

Kojima doesn’t make games, he makes game mechanics ideas that *other*, much smarter people, make into games.

So basically the prince of the video game industry.

“A game where you find a way to resurrect the game director Kojima” is in there I bet.

Let this guy finish his MGS story
You think it’s usb-C or did he cheap out?
