While we're all wondering 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:what's next for Kojima Productions, its founder has been ♚revisiting some of the essential ideas behind the making of Death Stranding - and then making it🐼 again for PC.

Death Stranding PC publisher 505 Games just unveiled a new series of video interviews with 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Hideo Kojima, and the first part also just so happens to overlap with Death Stranding going on sale for half-off on Steam and the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Epic Games Store. In the interview Kojima, talks abo🤪ut one of the questions he wants players to think about even as making deliveries and avoiding B.T.s remains at the forefront of 🐼their minds.

"My other intention was for the beautiful world that Sam traverses to be filled with roads, structures, and so on that had been built by online users," Kojima said. "These users aℱlso leave footprints wherever they go. This idea of humans rebuilding a civilization in this wild, beautiful world… That's one of the game's sub-concepts."

"The question of whether that's good or bad is left open. I wanted players to ask themselves, as they proceeded through the game, whether it's OK to sully this beautiful world with civiliza✱tion. That's one of the game's 'hidden features,' if yo🙈u like."

Later in the interview, Kojima talked about how proud he is that his team built Death Stranding's PC version itself, which is "is something th☂at's usually outsourced." He left testing Death Stranding's mouse controls to the staff, though, because he's "not really good" at it.

"Also, what might be the most important aspect is that core PC gamers are pretty vocal and ♔opinionated about games, and making something that would satisfy them was ve🧸ry tricky. I'm glad we took on the challenge, though, because it seems people are pleased with the results."

While he's long gone from Konami, Kojima still seemed pleased when Metal Gear Solid 5 PS3 players disarmed their last nuke.

I got a BA in journalism from Central Michigan University♉ - though the best education I received there was from CM Life, its student-run newspaper. Long before that, I started pursuing my degree in video games by bugging my older brother to let me play Zelda on the 𝕴Super Nintendo. I've previously been a news intern for GameSpot, a news writer for CVG, and now I'm a staff writer here at GamesRadar.
