Actually just randomly got recommended his channel earlier while scrolling yt. Tried watching his video about Kojima being racist and such. I didn't really end up watching the video though because of the way the guy was picking a fight with someone who disagreed with him in the video's comments section. Seems like the behavior of someone I would refer to these days as a "little bitch" and thus I stopped watching the video, although he may have made some valid points in it. I never saw Hideo Kojima as anything other than a human being who has some interesting ideas, and tbh him having problematic viewpoints and mannerisms doesn;t change the fact I'll always love MGS. MGS is more than just Kojima or Kojima's ideas, and for that we can thank all the other passionate people who worked on all those games over the years. To write MGS off entirely because Kojima himself is kinda scummy is itself kinda scummy imo because a lot of people put their ideas and perspectives into those games which is what made them so special to begin with, they actually cared about those projects and you can tell. An artist never makes an artwork so that it can be disregarded, or shit on, or destroyed because what would even be the point. Thats all just my opinion though and yeah hope it makes sense.
