So now even Conan will be an NPC in Death Stranding. I do remember Kojima saying there will be a lot of guest characters, but I didn't think late night talk show hosts! What do you think about this? I find it to be a tad cringy, but still fun I guess?
Conan Visits Kojima.
I really have zero interest in Kojima’s love for celebrities and Hollywood and putting them all in his games. Really does not add anything of value for me to see Conan’s face pop up.
He's allowed to do whatever the fuck he wants of course, I've always found it a bit tiring.
I'll just spoiler block the other Conan x Death Stranding trailer which shows something you get from him in the game.
I think this is perfect. With all the rather grim trailers out for the game I completely forgot that Kojima sprinkles in these completely goofy and absurd side bits that break the mood and I love it. This has got me more excited to play the game and see all the wacky gear you can get and the cameos he got.
At the end of the day this is a fun thing in a game to see. I continue to be surprised by people having such negative reactions to everything Kojima does as if he somehow got one over on the gaming public and now people feel some personal vendetta against the guy. If this was a Rockstar game everyone would be really excited to see what celebrities they got in, but since it’s Kojima then it’s obviously masturbatory.
@humanity: "With all the rather grim trailers out for the game I completely forgot that Kojima sprinkles in these completely goofy and absurd side bits that break the mood and I love it" is exactly how I feel about it. That contrast is what I'm looking for from a lot of the times from his games.
It’s not...it’s...just. Really?
Guys, that was a bit.
That was what I thought when the clip first aired, but it isn't. His character is called The Wondering MC and he gives you a special suit once you've built a bond with him.
