I don't see why this is necessarily a problem?

I didn't say it was? I said I have no interest in it.

You and Sucker Punch can do anything y'all want—I can only talk about my preferences.

Metal Gear is one of my favorite series of all time, and that's an Eastern developer's take on Western culture.

Listen, I'm suffering through the drudgery that is Death Stranding's story RN, so last thing I need is for anyone to invoke Kojima in this context 😂 Someone please tell this dude "we don't understand how [insert made up technology] works" is not an excuse for shit writing 😂

Fair enough, you're of course entitled to your interests however you see fit ;).

Death Stranding is a weird one. It has some of the most stupid writing in video games, but also has some really strong themes and moments too. I am talking about the first one as I don't have the budget to buy the sequel at release prices. But Metal Gear Solid 1, 2, 3 are masterpieces in my opinion, and the strange Eastern interpretation of Western spy / military culture is part of what makes it so interesting to me :)!
