[SPOILERS] MGS V: Did Kojima try to warn us?
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 28 มี.ค. 2015
- The footage in this video was taken from the Deja Vu mission in MGSV Ground Zeroes.
In March 2015, Konami quietly removed all traces of Kojima's name from all of his games online with no explanation as to why they did it.
This mission in the game is a but ominous in the way it has the player erase the logos of his games and some of the dialogue is strange...
Was he trying to warn his fans of what the future was going to entail?

hes trying to say "You can erase my name from my game but people will remember me no matter what"
so all these games are could be nothing???
Nope, they are fan games, inspired by metal gear saga
sad my favourite franchise died...
+Kakio you favorite series didn't die :3 there are things worst than death and as long as it's in the grubby hands of Konami they'll keep doing worst
But hopefully they starve, spread word of how they treat the staff and their fans as well as their franchise to help spread word so Konami dies ^^
well Im a massive MGS fan, and survive uses both KJP's fox engine and assets. I will probably be buying it. fox engine is god tier too
Metal Gear Survive
*NOT a Hideo Kojima game*
Kojima would never that stupid to put zombies in mg. Fucking konamis desperate attempt to gain money and draw mgs fans back.
Will it be a fun game? Yes. Do I want to support it? Hell no. I'll wait until it's in the bargain bin at gamestop.
but they are just a part of a game full of other things, not a game based on entire zombies and alternative world wtf.
besides the fact that Konami recycled the maps on TPP. It's clear that they give a fuck about making a good game, and want to steal money from the fans. Now everybody hates them lol, good move Konami
Metal Gear Survive
Miller: is it April 1st?
As a kid i always saw Metal Gear as a "Kojima game" without realizing Konami was the actual company. Metal gear is metal gear simply because of Kojima.
He made Konami
@@amarson2322then they cast him to the wayside
After 5 years, it still hurts. This is the real phantom pain
@@cold_static facts. New trailer just came out for a remake. Im still looking forward to this game!!!
Konami played us like a fiddle...
@@alfredopasta3784 Still don't preorder it, there's always a chance they ruin it.
On going 8 years and it still damn hurts
Even though we like venom have lost a part of us, we still carry on with Kojima’s legacy by knowing that metal gear was ALWAYS his, he’s our Big boss and we are his soldiers. We really are Diamond dogs
"You might be able to erase the markings,
but the memories will never disappear"
That's Deep...
Words to Live by from now on.
Gaming182 Got so many chills
Gaming182 Same, and Robin Atkin Downes delivery of those lines was just surreal.
NinjaNultrix right! as did I.
TheSodatastegood I agree with you 100%
Whitefox789 yeah they were!!! they were on point!!
kojima is the only one in the industry capable of using the gaming media to convey in a so elegant way his personal and professional troubles. pure genius.
IRON1I7 so glad lots of people thumbed this up, makes me understand how i share this love and respect for him with lots of other passionated gamers, thank you.
about this whole Konami affair, just few words: "Dad was such a drag."
***** if you actually were the first to spot this you definetely deserved some credit
***** kudos to you, man
+IRON1I7 I'm convinced that MGSV is his way of middle fingering it back to Konami. Take my name off the cover, well my name will just pop up at the end of 50 missions.
+DimebagVision
athough, it does say that Big Boss, after the fall of Outer Heaven, but before the crysis in Zanzibarland, underwent a surgery operation to sobstitute the bodyparts lost during the fight with Solid Snake with some hi-tech prostetics...
Love it when Kojima himself thanks the player “for all of your support!”
Knowing him, this was *definitely* a warning/message to the players. It’s absolutely within Kojima’s M.O. to do this. He frequently communicates with players in game through easter eggs, and such. Hell, he is a lost soldier in V. He asks us “what took you so long?” Almost seemingly in tears too. Granted, he was doing what Kaz did, but his delivery was genuine. By GZ, the Kojima/Konami thing was definitely going on already behind the curtain. He knew then that this was it.
I think that delivery in V was him not only cementing himself into Metal Gear officially as a character while he still could (and during the ‘80s as well - his favorite decade, and when he began as a developer), but also his way of thanking us, the players, for “saving him”. He knew we would “find him” and we would follow each other into the night.
He considers his fans family, like the lost ones consider Big Boss family. We are his salvation and this was one of his ways of telling us where to follow, showing us the path home. As always, he was leaving us the trail of breadcrumbs.
There is no doubt whatsoever.
I got Kojima on mother base because I rescued him in ground zero bit because I found him as a lost solider but my memory might be a bit off I haven't played it in almost a year
“Snake, what took you so long?”
My chest exploded right then and there
Actually, it was in the Japanese version of Metal Gear Solid Integral for the PSX. If Mantis finds savefiles for both Snatcher and Policenauts, he remarks that you are a fan of Hideo Kojima games, with Kojima saying "Thank you for your continuous support." I guess he wanted to refer to the original Metal Gear Solid with more references, however, as far as I know, these were only in Japanese then. I guess making it also in English made more sense now that it was a message to fans. Director Kojima just loves to put his personal life into the game. For example, Rose asking Raiden "what day is it tomorrow" in MGS2 was a reference to Kojima really forgetting on which day he and his partner have met. Personally, I like the mirror speech by a lot, especially when you consider the definition of a video game character by Kojima - as he stated that the missing piece is the player, and the character is in no way complete without it. "I am Big Boss, and you are too. No, he's the two of us together." Can of course also mean it is not exactly Big Boss, but Kojima himself talking, stressing how he could not be "Big Boss" without the support of the fans, the team who had worked with him and who kept following him. There's probably even more to this, Kojima really is god.
@@DervanHagg He truly puts himself in his art (sometimes literally) - but I mostly admire how he references the things he loves (and does) in his games the way you mentioned.
His skill using metaphors and how he speaks directly to the player through his characters is astounding.
He mantles the character and speaks through them to us like some benevolent spirit.
"nothing is stronger than family"
-Dominic Torertto
To be clear, the "Thank you for all your support!" was a reference to MGS1.
In the Japanese version, if you had save files for Policenauts and Snatcher, Psycho Mantis would say "You seem to be a fan of Kojima games." and then you'd hear Kojima say "Thank you for all your support."
As Snatcher and Policenauts never came to America, we never got those lines.
👍
"Metal Gear Acid"
"Looks like that's nothing special."
RIP
WE ARE 138 Rip
Standing BULLDOG Don’t get that part
Da Bossman metal gear acid is a spin off of metal gear meaning this is not Kojima's work at all, the game is one of those turn based combats with fuckin yugioh card rip offs now idk what console it was mainly played on but it was one of the first games I played on a psp
@@mita7242 I played it as well I remember it was fun tbh
"FUCK METAL GEAR SURVIVE NOT A KOJIMA GAME" Yeah and I'm glad we don't need his perverted bullshit
"But everyone of them will be always with you..."
Right in the feels... almost cry with that line
yeah there's no way to take that other then he knew what was coming and wanted to try in soften the blow to his fans
I agree...
Ya I feel the same way stair.
"_You might be able to erase the markings, but the memories will never disappear..._"

2. *CRY A LOT*
Same man. I'll never forget the good mgs games the ones made from kojima

_"The original members: Para-medic, Sigint, Eva, Ocelot......They've all passed on"_

I can't explain how that comment did me cry.
Holy shit I cried
I don't think later para-medic seems likeable anymore to big boss
From PT ending:
“Dad was such a drag. Every day he’d eat the same kind of food, dress the same, sit in front of the same kind of games… Yeah, he was just that kind of guy. But then one day, he goes and kills us all! He couldn’t even be original about the way he did it. I’m not complaining… I was dying of boredom anyway, But guess what? I will be coming back, and I’m bringing my new toys with me.”
Just replace "Dad" with "Konami".
Time Atk "But guess what? I will be coming back, and I’m bringing my new toys with me"
Holy shit, BADASSNESS OVER 9000!
Udoby Break Kojima's fucking taunted, people, run!
KONAMI, YOU FUCKED UP !!!!
Time Atk i think the PT ending referenced the silent hill franchise, yes "dad" is konami but "the same kind of food, dress the same, the same kind of games" means that the latest silent hill titles were all the same action shit, "one days he kill us all!" means silent hill book of memories, "i will be coming back with my new toys" means silent hills and the next gen
Finozzi96 I think the reference of food and games goes for every Metal Gear he had to do. Kill us all means to be fired. That's why he mention hes was dying of boredom. The Metal Gear.
** - tries to erase metal gear acid ... "that was nothing special"
LOLOLOLOLOLOL
Am i the only one who liked mga ? It wasn't as good as mgs games but it was fun nonetheless
Mello Keehl I despised that game
No, not because it was difficult or because it was different, the reason was that every time I took a step I'd have to sit through dialogue
the story was dope
Honestly, Ac!d 1&2 were surprisingly good as far as spin-off games go.
"Thank you for all your support" was that Kojimas voice?
Edit: didn’t check this video for so long so many likes!!!! Thanks! Me rike arot, if you haven’t seen that parody you ain’t a true mgs fan 🤓
i'm 101% sure that's Kojima's voice.

the last line isn't disturbing, it's really sad. Konami has a chance to leave well enough alone, but nope. Metal Gear Survive is the fruit of greed.
Argento Diosirvente and yet people will be gullible to by that shit when it releases
It's like trying another new project to cover the previous one you fucked up but instead it got worse
Imma buy Metal Gear Survive when it comes out lol.
honestly though, it probably gonna be a shitty metal gear game, but from the trailers looks like a somewhat decent game in of itself
I wonder where this idiots come from.
I mean 10$ save slot. Seriously ?
The only way this would be less subtle is if Hideo Kojima actually appeared in the game and- wait a minute

Metal Gear Ac!d 2
Miller: that's not important
Portable Ops
Miller: Ah forget that shit.
Metal gear Arcade
Miller: there's something wrong here...
He had nothing to do with that game .
Lol @ Robin Atkin Downes for being the voice for Johnathan.
I'm not sure about that but Kojima definitely had nothing to do with portable ops as he has regularly shunned the game, which is a shame because aside from the dragging of soldiers and the awkward controls its actually pretty good
The names that didn't disappear are what Kojima feared Metal Gear will be in the future. Metal Gear games that are made just for the purpose of milking money from the franchise.
Exactly
irwan HUZEN the funny thing is Revengence was one of those games that wasn't erased, despite the fact it wasn't a bad game (personally, I hated all the other ones that didn't erase).
nomorewordz619 Probably because it wasn't actually a "Metal Gear"game, just a spin-off in the same setting.
No, they're games he didn't make. If you want to read into it deeper, that's fine, but there isn't really any solid fact to back that up.
I'm just surprised Metal Gear Solid: Ghost Babel for the Gameboy Color didn't show up on there. Ghost Babel is not canon, but "supposedly" was years after MGS1 but before MGS2. Colonel Campbell had Snake captured again. "Colonel, you didn't go to all this trouble just to make small talk with me, did you?"
And the Colonel tells him, almost immediately, that there is "another Metal Gear." This was a stark contrast to the Colonel we knew who kept his hands close to his pockets as opposed to this Colonel who basically said "here are my pockets, I ain't got no rations or secrets, bro!"
Hideo Kojima is the only reason Konami ever sold anything in the first place, seriously fuck Konami, And thankyou Hideo.
Actually, that last line, along with the Psycho Mantis one, were initially recorded for Metal Gear Solid 1 for the PSX. However, since the two other Hideo Kojima games that could trigger the line (Snatcher and Policenauts) were never released outside of Japan, the line became inaccessible in the international release. Kojima recycled it (almost twenty years later!) as a little homage.
*However*, given how hard shit was hitting the fan within Konami, him recycling that particular line could be indeed a "thank you and farewell" message.
Snatcher did get an international release but not on PS1. Only on the Sega CD, and the Sega CD version did not come out in Japan.
Policenauts was going to get an English Saturn release but it was cancelled because they couldn’t match up the English dub with the animation.

The game is all about easter eggs
"Konami erasing Hideo Kojima's name from the game"

IN_DEI_XICHT___ Well, Konami own the IP tho.
IN_DEI_XICHT___ throw uiyr games this way then
IN_DEI_XICHT___ and then those badtards make Metal Gear Survive #FuckKonami
Yeah
That message is very deliberate. Kojima knew ahead of time what Konami was planning on doing or the process had already begun by the time GZ was made. I'm pretty sure the actual coup was underway internally for a substantial amount of time before news of it got out and became public.
It's just like Kojima to break the 4th wall like this though, which makes it obvious what this message is about once you understand the context. This also gives credence to the message from the anonymous murdered family member in the P.T. demo as well. I initially thought the P.T. thing had no relevance to the coup, but now it seems a lot more valid.
Naroon201 wait I'm confused, how does PT have relevance to the fallout btwn Konami and Kojima aside from the fact that Silent Hills was cancelled and all that
cheesefrommysoul the final message in PT was an allusion to his relationship with Konami and his inevitable departure. PT was never meant to happen. Kojima used it as a vehicle to screw Konami on the consequences of kicking him out.
cheesefrommysoul
PT was made by Kojima Productions and the last message in PT talks about the guy in the house who murdered the rest of the family (presumably the murderer was the dad, and the narrator sounds like the older son -- the ghost/apparition you see in the demo is Lisa, the wife.) The message, if deciphered in this context, was a direct reference to the Konami CEO who came in and went batshit insane and was responsible for ousting Kojima. In this case, the son = Kojima, the dad = the CEO, the wife and the aborted fetus = metaphor for Silent Hills dying before it had a chance (even Konami said the game was in an "embryonic" stage of development when it got canned). The son saying he'll "be back and bring all [his] toys with him" sounds like a direct reference to Kojima coming back with most of his staff and making new games.
Naroon201 this has been going on far longer than just mgsv. remember back in the e3 announcement for mgs4? "no place for hideo?" then later in the teaser "no replacement for hideo". i guess back then he had more power over mgs so he could poke fun at the concept of being pushed out in general. now i guess its a different story.
he always did say he was done with mgs, a konami owned isp. i guess the tension was always there just nobody saw it. to quote the Rorschach, "No one else saw the joke. That's why he was lonely."
BlankX47
Yeah I remember that "no place for Hideo" thing. At the time I just brushed it off as typical Kojima quirkiness, since there was no way for anyone outside the company to know about such internal strife without it being made public. Although Kojima has been saying for years that he has wanted to move on from MGS, and I believe him. I think Konami were the ones forcing him to make more games.
Without Hideo Kojima. There can be no metal gear.
I wouldn't call him a genius or a master mind for this. I just think he really loved his work.
We think he is brilliant because we see it as an art, a craft. In reality, it's just him being him.
"you may erase the markings but the memories remain"
a big fuck you to Konami here from kojima
After mgsV, my money goes to wherever Kojima goes to. Konami done messed it up!
MrABStheMan Ur right. MGS V Phantom Pain will be my last Game from Konami and im only buying it cuz Kojima made the game.
Jokes on you, Konami is only going to focus on mobile games now.
+Rood Nverse And Pes ofc xD
+MrABStheMan
one man can hope for a new ZOE or a new chapter in the Boktai serie, but still...
kojima went to sony
Konami erased kojimas name but his games will always stay on our memories R.I.P metal gear 1987-2015
also if anyone tries to ruin assassin's creed for me by making it shit just like Konami did with metal gear solid I will hunt the company down and slaughter them
Kojima : Erase David hayter from metal gear
Konami : Erase Kojima
Kojima, you're one hell of a genius.
Yes indeed , expecting nothing less from the master of video games
@@daddychill7863 Bro if that's a thing, Kojima is the guy who can make it a thing. There is no other game where for a moment the creator is actually talking to you an you know it. If someone else tried they failed, cuz MGS is the only series where I immediately know it's my boy Kojima talking.
No doubt Konami will produce more MGS games... but never again will I buy another one.
For Kojima.
You did right
@@pablo_giustiniani it’s been years and I still feel this phantom pain
Funny enough, they stop producing games.
But what if MGV6 is made by Kojima? Would you buy that?
@@Raiden-cd7lo thats not going to happen, since metal gear itself are under the copyright of konami. thats why his latest games are death stranding
And now its pop up in everyone recommendation
same
Yup, these companies dont care bout us or precious series like metal gear
"Why are we still here? Just to suffer? Every night, I can feel my leg... and my arm... even my fingers. The body I've lost... the comrades I've lost... won't stop hurting... It's like they're all still there. You feel it, too, don't you? I'm gonna make them give back our past."
Edit this relating to Kojima's message.
I was covering GamesCom 2009 when Kojima was talking about Peace Walker. While we all asked our questions, he would answer them with so much enthusiasm. He seemed so excited to talk about his games. That to me, is the mark of a creator. Someone who's proud of their work and it showed. The amount of care and effort he put into making Metal Gear games is unmatched. He didn't make games like they were some consumer product, he made amazing experiences with the only goal in mind to make his fans happy. Metal Gear games had so much production value, the stories and cutscenes were cinema like quality. Metal Gear is his pride and joy. Games would evolve and change but he always put the fans first. When Konami came in to streamline his games to have mass appeal in order to sell more games across a demographic that doesn't care for cutscenes, stories or challenging gameplay he quit... and he did so to protect his projects and fans.
I'm glad to be a fan of such an amazing series. Thank you Hideo Kojima! We'll miss you.
No we'll not. Konami however is.
Death Strandings!!!
This man speaks the truth.

@Scream Kid lol, COD and Fortnite are trash.
Kojima is truly a master at his work, amazing.
Yes sir
Kojima was trying to say; “lol, I cancelled like 3 different games for MGSV and bankrupted Konami as Vice President, and you guys still love me.”
Blame him all you want, Silent hill failure ain't his fault. Shifting to mobile ain't his decision. Many veterans have left konami pior. Last I check mgs is still konami ip, and they can still continue w/o him. That's not his fault since he has no saying in what they do to that ip now.

Ayyyyy
GLOCO the final message of the game, the secret identity of the ultimate evil, Patriots were Konami all along
I think Konami should relinquish the Konami buildings, erase THEIR title and give ALL the buildings, tech and staff to Kojima. I'd rather see more games coming with "Kojima Productions" or "A Hideo Kojima game" on the front than Konami.
Please Let Hideo Kojima get his OWN company so we can bask in all he had/has in store for his loving fans.
Raun Carswell Who knows? Maybe Kojima may be elected new president of Nintendo with no effort after Iwata passed away (Legendary Man, no questions.)
X2011racer I doubt that will happen. He ins't even a member of the company. Even if he would join, it would be ridiculous to make him president first day when there are so many people already at the company that would deserve it. Also I love both Nintendo and Kojima, but they're too different, they shouldn't mix.
Sorry, I was seeing it as an act of desperation.
X2011racer Nothing you need to apologize for xD
Raun Carswell sadly, it was confirmed recently that kojima productions has already disbanded.
Thank you who ever posted this
Years and years later and my whole body is still covered in goosebumps. Almost brings a tear to my eye

I NEVER comment on TH-cam videos. But I will NEVER buy a game published or made by Konami Ever again.
KeemTV mgs phantom pain still have konami name
Farhan Ridikteangue not anymore
what the fuck -_-
+Anon20855 what are you talking about? You guys couldnt have known when you made this comment because the game wasn't out yet. Hideo's name appears throughout that game at-least 100 times. Plastered on the screen before and after every mission. It's a little weird.
jhk655 i know ryt ? i was talking about the box it hasn't "a hideo kojima game inscription" and it doesn't have kojima production either , still the "Directed by hideo kojima " in the end and the beggining of EVERY mision is really fucking weird AND IRRITATING
This actually brought a tear to my eye when I had this moment. I realized MGS was the one video game series that had a significant entry for every era of my life, and all of them felt not just meaningful but like they paralleled my own struggles at those times, and then I realized Hideo was going through the exact same thing saying his goodbyes and in that moment I could really "see the battlefield clearly" and stood with Hideo in spirit both humbled by his brilliance and yet as his equal.
There will never be another Hideo Kojima, and for those of us that MGS shadowed us as we moved through our lives there will never be another series quite like it. We were truly blessed, and this is the man who accomplished it.
Never forget Konami! Your best games are Kojima’s games
I've only recently experienced this series and how amazing Kogima's work really is, but this makes me think back on his games in an almost allegorical light.
There once was a man who believed in his mission and his company, he put his heart and soul into everything he did, not questioning the orders from the higher ups once during those years where he was in his prime. He followed those orders even when the very things that made him what he was were telling him that these orders were wrong, and that blind loyalty to any organization will be his own undoing. The thing that made him what he was, the one that represented his dreams and ambitions, made an example of itself, being a martyr at the hands of the man himself.
The story of Naked Snake whom killed The Boss for a nation that used her life for their own ends
The story of Hideo Kojima whom gave his prized project to a company who squandered it for their own ends

Snake salutes the grave of The Boss
Never forget.
👏👏👏👏👏 "You're pretty good"
Beatifull, realy beatifull
and MGS5 is the final game from konami i am buying. Gonna stick with Kojima Production products and services for now on :)
END OF LINE
Agreed, I Metal Gear Rising used from GameStop so they'd get none of my money and that is my last Konami game period.
Yeah. Following Kojima over to Death Stranding for sure.
I have the he collection, mgs1, phantom pain and Ground zeroes, and mgs4. That's all the Kojima stuff right? If so then I don't give a shit about konami anymore
Shootokill What console do you have GZ and TPP on?
+shootokill No, Kojima has other games outside of the Metal Gear Franchise. Policenauts, The Zone of Enders series, and Snatcher, among others.
*Tries to erase the MGA 2 logo*
Miller:"nothing special"
;__;
Oh my god the reaction from Miller about MGS: AC!D was perfect
I know the Kojima-Konami situation is more likely to be real than not but consider this. Snake was always a kind of alter ego to Kojima. The main theme in MGS2 was to leave your legacy behind when you die, and that was the first time Kojima said he wanted to stop creating MGS games, he wanted them to be made by his team, without him being personally involved. In MGS4, Kojima and Old Snake are kinda in the same position, doing something they don't want to do (making a sequel to MGS2-Killing Liquid) and you could even spot a "NO PLACE FOR HIDEO" sign before the title appeared in one of the first cutscenes. Kojima has been using real world information to convey his games' "lessons". Now, once again, Big Boss and Kojima are in the same position: they've been silent for a long time, their "base" was destroyed and their teams disbanded; moreover, the latest trailer was about cutting people's tongues to silence them, and Kojima was surely silenced, disappearing from twitter and his other social media. Once again, i know i must be overthinking, but i hope this is all a ruse, and i hope we'll see kojima's name pop out in the credits, just like another name appeared right at the end of MGS4.
Enrico Gusella You gave a interesting analysis and the connection to all MGS games.
Henry Clavo thank you :D I just put together informations i knew watching the "making of" the games... I love this series, it's one of the few that can compete with movies and novels in terms of depth
+Enrico Gusella We have to spread this. EVERYONE should know, that Konami literally killed Metal Gear.
At least we saw an ending with 4. I didn't want MGS to go on forever, it would become like assassins creed
+Enrico Gusella Kojima is more like Zero tbh.
My god he predicted endless hollow games from Konami after he left.
Those are actual games that Kojima wasn't in on.

Gave me goosebumps Kojima
Is a legend

DAMN YOU KONAMI YOU MAY BE ABLE TO REMOVE THE MARKINGS ! BUT YOU WILL NEVER BE ABLE TO MAKE THE MEMORIES DISAPPEAR !
All these people are like, OMG HE PLANNED TO GET FIRED!
Maybe, just maybe, like in many corporations their split was in fruition for a long time.
Sprax he knew his time at the company was coming to a close. Ground zeros was originally supposed to be act 1 of phantom pain. They made him release as a standalone. And they fired him when he was still in the final stages of designing the final act of tpp. Scrubbing his name from tpp was just their way of insulting him on his way out. His departure was a fairly heated thing and there was a lot of office politics.
Great video! It gave me goosebumps
"Metal Gear Acid"- Miller "That's not very special"
The moment I heard about Kojima being fired from Konami I immediately thought of this mission. It was definitely Kojima hinting at the then upcoming scenario with a strong message, the mission was so weirdly specific in objective, but vague in justification and premise that it really couldn't be anything else.
Good Lord. When I was doing this side quest at the time, the significance of erasing the "real" MGS games but not the "fake" ones was totally lost on me. Wow. That man is a genius.
Which metal gear solid is this??

it pass so much time...
and this still... so much... sad...
"Thank you for all your support" oh my god...
Subbed and set to all notifications. Astonishing stuff mate!!!
This makes me extremely sad. It shows you that he knew the following games will not have his touch, like a baby taken from him. And he possibly knew his destiny of Konami getting rid of him. At least, the answers were in this game.
#KojimaWasRightAllAlong
Thank you for your support
Lets hope one day Kojima can buy the franchise back
I cant wait to decipher all the messages in phantom pain. Kojima is the master of hiding great easter eggs.
+OwlsForSaleGetYourOwlsOwlsForSale well, it's not exactly very subtle. im sure youre not the only one who noticed.
+TONY_the_TIGGA Pretty sure ''THE PHANTOM PAIN'' the game name, And in the Song Nuclear, the line: ''THE ABONDONED CHILD'' are eastereggs about Konami destroying MGS too.
+GermanKraut There are others too such as TPP snake being "Venom" snake, a fake snake. Not Kojima's but Konami's snake. I didn't make this theory but someone did say something like that.
That also makes a great dirty joke.
MugsOfMilk I did the theory. No jokes.
I was also the one who said, that Venom is Konamis fake Snake!
***** Oh crap! lWhat a coincidence.
i have to say one thing! Hideo Kojima is awesome!!!
+Shadow Pain *KOJIMA IS GOD (except Konami)!!*
+Anonymously Person Konami is devil?
MugsOfMilk
Konami is Devil's shit
Shadow Pain No Konami is the Devil's Toilet. They eat shit.
MugsOfMilk
Hahaha Do you know the german (i thin it's not german but i only know the german version) "Du bist was du isst".? It means you are what you eat :D
everytime I saw a logo disappear, a piece of me was breaking inside. man that hurt to watch.
Shit... That was really deep... Farewell Hideo
1:57 Is this the voice of Hideo Kojima saying ("Thank you for all your support ")???
Yep, that's Kojima.
Amazing. He uses the game so he can unwrap his character and send thanks the game fans.
Thank you detective.
Kojima sensei will always be one of the best game developers to ever live! If ever Konami fires him that would be the game company's ultimate downfall.. I just hope for the best for Mr.Kojima :(
I swear to god this made my heart melt he even changed the dialogue for Mantis ahhhhhh
Rewatching this in 2021.....still remember the drama those days with the whole Konami-Kojima "fight".....a real Deja Vu
He played us like a damn fiddle.
Right in the feels , rip Metal Gear , but hopefully better games will be produced by Kojima , #fucKonami
Death Stranding looks good
@@dr.scarlet7586 I'm from the future to say its shit
@@xeno1632 lol...diferent people have different taste..lol..better than TLou2..
Damn, dagger to my soul, like losing a loved one, my childhood, thanks for the good times Hideo
We wont be getting more metal gear games from him and it hurts, like hell. But! I can't wait for death stranding. That game looks like a fucking artwork to me. Nothing makes sense but you still love it and want to understand it.
From the future to say it's god awful and a load of shit
WHAT. THE. FUCK.
P.S. That last line gave me the feels. It's real deep, and goes beyond the game itself. Thank you, Mr. Kojima, for being a part of the gamer in me. For helping me appreciate video games in general, especially those that do things out of the ordinary, those that break out of the norm. For helping me realize that video games could be so much, much more than just simply pressing buttons, exploring the artificial worlds, beating enemies, clearing a level, and trying to reach the end and win, like that last line at the end of the video. For trolling us but still managing to win out hearts at the end of the day. For being different, in every sense of the word. Thank you so much. We will never forget all of what you have done for the video game industry.
it was all a ruse
synapse They played us like a damn fiddle!
+kaiden carl all of the memes genes scenes
Even a demo game had alot of quality, many detail and message for metal gear fan. That's make me so proud to support his masterpiece work.
Kojima is god!
the music and the way the video was presented creeped me out a lot
MGS is over to me, The story ended at MSG4
checkerknights4 Metal Solid Gear 4?
AirRiderXD Official
Yeah after Big Boss died from the Foxdie and after he killed Zero
i was just joking around cause you type MSG instead of MGS. :P
AirRiderXD Official
yeah
well that is actually where the whole story ends .......
Well all I can say to Kojima is that "Thank you for bringing us a great game those past 30 years".
Kojima is a genius and probably going separate ways from Konami was his idea from the start .
I think the Metal Gear Saga ended very well with Venom .
If one day there's going to be a new game it should be again about Venom...the best character because HE is YOU !
"Thank you dor your support"
That make me tear.
a good friend of mine is manager of gametop and one day the PlayStation supervisor was there and told the story about Konami SHAMING Kojima. and went into details about how "shaming" is 10X's worse then anything we have here. ****and it was because he refused to allow MGS V to have micro transactions and screw the fans..I never cared for Hideo until I heard that they refused him silverware or chopsticks to eat and his chairs were taken from him...I declared BS until someone confirmed it. look into this if you don't know the story and it will make you hesitant to support this company with MGS Survivor
If that's true, and Kojima still refused to whore out his game and beloved fanbase like so many other producers my respect for him just tripled
Shane Tarrant dude,,I think(strongly suspect) this company is very wicked and Kohima was just like any artist/dev going up against the big guys..........the story about the Destiny sound producer/composer @ Bungie warning them about activision dealt the full fury of just how gnarly powerful rich companies can be....Bungie stole his stocks and his stock in the company. *** NOT ONE GAME MAGAZINE OR IGN OR GAMESPOT REPORTED WHAT BUNGIE DID TO HIM AND THE RESULTS OF THE COURT CASE...I feel dirty and dishonest for still liking Destiny... but it's a very well game. The mechanics and control r the best I've ever played or seen in any game...but I know the horror story of this was true and the story that sound composer told about Activision destroying Destiny story is 100% true....we all saw the way Destiny ended.,.we all saw the missing story elements...I hate the corporate side...and then vice versa isn't pretty either..see Sean Murray LAUGHING AND Smiling as he lies to the camera and the world...no surprise he took 16 million and moved to Sweden...jerk!!!
"Not yet. It's not over yet!" is also what Eli says in the cut 51st episode.. makes you think maybe it's a hint that Konami made him cut that?
It has been Liquid's catchphrase since MGS1
I've heard that Eli is like liquid as a child
+Daniel GamingReturned Eli is liquid but when he was a kid.
Great video thanks for sharing this.
I think Kojima vision is game director can be as succesful as movie director and create a memory that worth a lifetime for all the people watching or playing the game.
While the game message is pretty clear with the main theme war, nuke, abuse of power. Some hint of internal issue that happening back then can't be helped to unintentionally influence some part of the game, and Kojima just let it slide.
I think there's something in my eye :'(
Probably your controller.
A sharpnel ?

The text at the begining is showed way too fast
there is a magical innovation that youtube introduced way back when the site was launched, its called pausing
Yes, and we all use the magical innovation but was annoying to aply the use of the magical innovation because the person who did this did not edited the begining well
Ron Trioxin Well, he is using ShareFactory to edit, it's not the best editing tool ever.
I seriously miss hideo's MGS series. I wish for more games, i didn't play all of the games but I love all of them
Damn ninjas cutting onions again
