Man that would suck to die every 21 minutes. What if I'm taking a dump or something? How do you sleep? Can't go out to dinner with friends or anything cause welp gonna peace out between the salad and soup courses and gross everyone out. What a bummer of a life/death.

you gotta take an uber everywhere because you obviously can't drive. you explain it best you can when you get in, but half the time you wake up in a ditch or the hospital anyway.

job interviews are extremely awkward.

your childhood dream of becoming a tightrope walker is dashed.

"Most of life's basic functions fit rather easily into a 21-minute timeslot..."

I don't think going out to dinner with friends is really an issue in that world. I am really curious how he sleeps though, he even says it's a problem.

There was that journalist that started going crazy after trying out taking 20m naps every hour instead of sleeping. He interviewed some other (presumably crazy) people doing the same thing.

Diehardman is actually Bruce Willis in a mask. When he goes to the other side, it's like repeating his glory years in a loop, hence the moniker Diehardman.


Either that or when he goes to the other side he has an enormous stiffie.

The most important thing we've learned from that tweet is that Refn is Kojima's best friend

Kojima seems like the capybara of the video game industry. He's just friends with everybody. He's friends with George Miller. It's like he shows up and people go "Welp gotta be pals now."

Hmm I was just thinking... when you do motion capture it might be easier to do long scenes because you can have cue cards about

You don't have to, and generally can't/don't want to capture facial animation and audio at the same time as the rest of mocap data anyway. You can also just edit mocap together, just because there's no in-game camera cuts doesn't mean you can't stitch together and hand-edit as many takes as you want.

I'd imagine it gives the director a wide degree of freedom in production. you'd always have the perfect shot, blocking, emotion, etc. because you have complete control over each scene.

I can't believe Death Stranding is out in 3 months. They're gonna have to start showing gameplay pretty soon! Gamescom sounds like a fine occasion to launch the final marketing push.

Oh my god can this "Kojima is random lol" take die already. Dude hides one protagonist a decade and a half ago and suddenly he's completely unpredictable. You're gonna see lots of DS gameplay before it drops because Kojima and Sony are both interested in selling some copies. The marketing for all of Kojima's games (including MGS2) has put heavy emphasis on gameplay, because the guy's fundamentally a game designer over everything else.

At the very least you have a motorcycle which is shown in the trailer. Don't know if you can jack other people's vehicles but it seems likely imo.
