Dope.

He values his independence which is a good thing after Konami. Plus, he’s getting up there and age so I can’t imagine why he would want to sign the last few games away to one person.

Even if you don't like what he produces he's got the right principles

Still proves that companies are thirsty as for acquisitions despite the recession.
I don't understand what you're saying here? Companies are thirsty because they are buying companies?
These companies WANT TO BE BOUGHT OUT because of the continued higher cost of game development. This has been prohesized for years already
Companies will be afraid to make new games because if a game flops, that company could go bankrupt. Higher cost has forced these moves...

Its also why gamepass is so great, but that's already understood so it didn't need to be said :troll:

He tried.

The best he’s getting is simultaneous releases alongside PS5. Not buying him. Unlike Bussythesda and Asstivision, Kojima has integrity. It’s a Japanese mentality that many flabby US companies and people aren’t familiar with.
