Hideo Kojima says he has been acknowledged by creating games that go against the current of the times.

His full tweet:

It seems I have been acknowledged by creating games that go against the current of the times, such as "hide-and-seek" games where you sneak into a building without being detected by the enemy, or "delivery games" where you enjoy moving around in an open world, For me, the most experimental game was "defeating vampires outside your house" using actual sunlight around you. It was met with fierce opposition from the staff and even within the company. In that sense, "OD" is just as different.

The “movie game” concept has been loathed by critics since the PS3 era, so making a game that positively leans into that could be interesting.

he is so modest, he acknowledged that he was acknowledged.

It's a movie not a game they said as much at the game awards FFS

Making an exclusive on a system nobody will buy games for is definitely going against the trends of the times.

Let's see if it's exclusive or even a console game at all.
