Kojima didn't care for Hayter? That's crazy because he was an excellent voice cast.

He probably had something completely different in mind for Snake. It just got to a point where Hayter became entrenched with the character as the series got more popular.

IMO i still think it’s completely stupid that he voices big boss and solid snake. All the other clones have different VO’s

Yeah Kojima lowkey never liked Hayter. He been trying to replace bro for Hollywood actors since MGS2. Hayter had to repeatedly re-audition for the role just to play Snake. But at least the gaming community showed him love and was outraged. When he didn’t returned in MGSV…nobody gave af about TC being replaced.

Im surprised to see the higher praise for GoW 2018 on the Internet. I thought Ragnarok had it beat from the intro

I always said 2018 has the better story and pacing but the gameplay/level design/enemy variety/bosses are all better in Ragnarok.

The only real complaints I have about Ragnarok looking back at it now that it's complete and some time has passed. The ending was clearly rushed. And the Atreus playable section is really a chore to get through on subsequent playthroughs.


But I also think Valhalla is one of the best things that dropped this Gen.

Agree with this 100%

Valhalla kind of redeems the last 5 hours of ragnarok

Kojima strikes me as someone who is enamored with celebrities.. He'd rather have the big name
Now he does, but I never got that feeling back in the day. I read interviews about him wanting to make thought provoking games, not Hollywood Blockbusters. It wasn't until this man got a Twitter account did I see just how much of a film buff/celebrity worshipper he really is.
