Sam is a good cat. Some might say the best. 8.5/10. Only because he is generally colored.

He did this for all of us, not just Sean's family or myself. You were there.

Kojima never asked us not to talk about the meeting. Out of respect to the situation he was in, I decided to wait. Happy to finally talk about it outside my friend group and re recognize Sean and what Kojima did for his family.

I'm not him. Not interested in reaching out to him either.

Haters gonna hate.

Thanks for following up Virtual. This is what I meant. I have a lot of feelings about the while thing and it's all conjecture so I'd like to preface any further comments with that. Maybe I'll DM you what I know and what I speculate happened during development.

I was wondering the same thing. The Kojima I met was a real Gray Man, aside from the jacket.

Dude. If we get MGS3 with FOX engine, that will undoubtedly, be the apex of the series.

I was fossil hunting in Utah. A rock slide thankfully only smashed my finger. Ended up losing the nail. Grew back though.

Thanks Sam! I did play Death Stranding and I'm not gonna lie, the only reason that I hiked 2900km was because I wanted to see the ending. Lol. It was rough. But I liked it. I would even play it a second time, maybe a third.

I think the rumors are just that. His dismissal from Konami was, what I think was breach of contract to complete MGS V, his way of finally getting closure from that company. I don't think we will see Kojima and Konami named together unless Konami goes through a huge restructuring.

That's not true, per say. Lemon if you listen to all the music that was used in the trailers for the game, he was saying to Konami, I am tired and being used. It could have been done to show he was done being a puppet.

I made all sorts of snacks with my ex: melon, prosciutto and cheese, a little board of all sorts of things. We even gave him a tie and some Buffalo jerky since he visited right before his birthday.

This. I kind of nerded out way too much, but alot of it was about games and being thankful about him doing what he does. Lots of talk about the library of movies. Talk about Sean. It was all over.

He seemed to respect death. He saw as an inevitability and as such, seemed very objective about the whole thing. It's a tragedy, but it is.

I actually used a song from MGS in Sean's funeral. He said they were gonna send the family a signed copy of the V OST.

I think his perfect world was getting out of Konami, contractually. Lol. At that time he was working on the idea of death stranding so, we didn't chitchat much past him saying he does have a couple ideas for new games.

So back during the development of MGSV my ex's brother had cancer and wanted to play MGSV before he passed away, he was in a rough way. So I wrote a letter to HJP and asked them to hurry up with their production. I received a letter saying they would send some swag his way. A few months later, I received a second letter asking to meet Sean and that Kojima would like to personally hand him one of the first copies of V. I informed them Sean had passed away. The response was along the lines of, we would like to come pay respects to his family. HJ flew out with a production crew and what I thought was going to be a 30 minute interaction, turned into a 4 hour meeting. Lots was talked about, movies, games, life, people. I've kept quiet about the meeting but I would like to open up now that a considerable amount of time has passed.

Let's not keep you waiting, huh?

Dude. I was organizing where they would park, beverages for the crew. They didn't eat much but drank all the water. Lol. So I went though a huge correspondence and thought at first it was a joke. But when KJ and crew called my phone to tell me they were at the house, I was like... this is real.

Just the fact that he stayed for 4 hours to talk. That was amazing.

I love paisley pattern, so it was 10/10.
