Respect to the translator..that was so much to translate

As a bilingual (JP and Eng) myself, I have mad respect for this translator, he actually did amazing job doing many on - the fly translating, especially with such varying subject matters discussed during this interview.

It makes sense considering he has been working with Kojima for quite a long time. May I ask you, do you think the translation was, over all, accurate? Or was there anything that bothered you?

@GundamTech

Eyah, the translation was over 95% accurate, the translator had to summarize in some bit since Korima was speaking too fast and didn't pause in-between his long sentences. What I really liked about the translator was that he did direct translating in most places, meaning did not speak in his own way, instead he spoke like if Kojima was native English speaker which is actually really hard to do on-the-fly.

Why does his translator sound so awkward, then? He keeps stuttering and stumbling over words like he's really nervous or like he forgot what he was going to say. He also seems to skip some typical English words like "the". Honestly, this is the most painful Kojima interview I've watched, because of that guy.

Most interview like this usually get the questions in advance, and it seems from the laptop, they did gave them "some" of the question, the issue was, Kojima went off script pretty much the entire time, so the translator had to translate many new stuff, AND various subject matter. As to why he was skittish, not sure, but it seems english might not be his first language (he is maybe Filipino?, not sure), and also Kojima wasn't giving him time to speak before going to next sentence, on top of not providing enough pause in between sentences.

That's Kojima sama to you

To all the 'Kojima fans' complaining about there being no discussion about Death Stranding: This has been mentioned days before E3, Kojima will not be showcasing DS and only be talking about movie related stuff with the director of the upcoming Metal Gear movie. Secondly, I also realize why every entertainment we consume nowdays has stopped surprising us. We are spoiled by the internet (forums, leaks, interviews and trailers) because of people like you. Kojima said DS is a completely new concept and game. It is years away from being released and you all want more footage and info on this. Why? Reaction like these is the reason developers are forced to spoil everything even before the product comes out and then we all complain again for having been spoiled. Angry rant over -_-

"Betray your audience like I do," best response ever 😎

The way Kojima answered the questions in terms film-making and the way he combines it with VIdeo Games especially around 7:32 (if that translation is accurate). that makes a lot of sense why Kojima had a lot of dispute with Konami while the production of MGSV TPP. Konami didn't respected him in terms of this - and now, we are here.

I honestly think you are misinterpreting his words about "betraying his audience". The fact that KONAMI hold him under a controlled environment to not even able to oversee the mid-development progress of the game was all there to prove my point and nothing will change that. The guy always thinks out of the box and I really appreciate that - totally different to all of the rest of the Japanese developers there who intends to repeat everything. Sure good graphics "wow" - that's about it. Not Kojima, he'll do his best to be different - and KONAMI didn't like this route. Just look at what they are doing with Metal Gear Survive another version of a "ISEKAI" Zombie Survival Game, proves all of my point - Japanese developers love to repeat things.

We know "Out of This World" as "Another World". And I'm with Kojima in this particular plot. Another World is one of those games that you play it today just for 10 minutes, and it's just like an amazing movie-guidance experience that changes every time the gameplay towars the situation for the players and the story. It's a masterpiece from Eric Chahi (Phantom 2040, Aen Flux) and it's still good looking with those camera angles and big secuences. There's an "Another World 20th Anniversary" game now that you should buy it and play it right away. It'll be hard to you to beat the game and reach the end, but you will appreciatte it indeed.

I was in the third row for this. All the other panels people were talking and stuff. This....people were silent!

I 100% agree with him, nothing triggers me more then text explaining a movie, same with E3 SHOW DON't TELL. People like indeed Kurosawa and Kubrick are really good at that.

Kojima would likely make a poor film director but he's still better than pretty much any other videogame director. His style is well suited for games.

This is actually a great interview for all creators. What inspired Kojima, how he works with his team to create something and the last part was best on what he does when a project gets cancelled ..... Just keep creating!!!

Amazing Interview

I thank the universe for you Kojima. Thank you!

It's just rude not to introduce the interpreter as if he doesn't matter. He's been translating for Kojima for years.

I'm not gonna watch kong Skull however. This interview was awesome, probably one of the best I've ever heard... Great work guys... It says so much about cinema and video games...like neo would say : wow. Thanks for this!

I wanted watching this. Thanks.

nice interview !

Kojima-san rocking them Léon: The Professional glasses.

I love how Kojima can come to all these conferences with barely anything and people still love him. And no, that isn't any kind of criticism: I personally hope he doesn't release Death Stranding for 15-20 years, and they just keep rolling him out for these discussions with no/little new content. He is like the father of the house. He has earned it.

Great discussion

2 Things: 1. Kojima REALLY needs to take it easy with the translator. 2. He needs to get a better translator.

Raiden vs Vamp is my favorite fight scene EVER in any media, and that's including Old Boy hallway scene and The Matrix. The fight scene is SO different and creative than anything else, it's amazing

I'll never get tired of that ludens intro when death stranding comes out

Very interesting, than you for this video

7 mins in and props to that translator, what a job!

There’s no better proof than Jordan entering underneath a box that is the only guy in Hollywood that should be allowed to make an MGS movie

That Luden suit was awesome!

thr only true legends here are the directors back when he was a kid, they shaped Kojima's brain into what it is now

WOW!!! HE'S SEEN 12 ANGRY MEN!!!! AND THAT IS MY FAVORITE MOVIE!!!!

25:51 KOJIMA: "I made that game"

Kojima was talking about another world? or as the translator said alter world? I remember playing Another World at my Amiga 500, truly awesome game

"that was close" :D

I imagine a bunch of people in the audience were kind of bored with the movie talk haha But for those that love both games and videogames, this was such an amazing interview.

See when you get Celeb guests this is how you do it. Great host and didn't even know he was the director of King Kong

GREAT APPLAUSE to the translator on this!! What is his name?

THANK YOU I NEVER CAUGHT THAT IT WAS REALLY GOOD WHAT DI YOU THINK OF SONY'S E3. AS ALWAYS FOREVER YOUNG GOD BLESS BOBBY LEE 007.

I feel like all these movie questions are very vital in how the director is going to make the movie idk that's just the feeling I'm getting, these are pretty interesting questions nonetheless tho

I wish under that mask.. The man takes it off and under it... Is Hideo Kojima.

So WOT are they doing for 25th anniversary?

"My best friend is here" How did this not make it to crowbat scratch that the first 2 minutes lol

They love you.

what a complicated questions .

The man is on break let him have fun and talk about what he loves. remember marking games is his job! no one like to talk about their job in a break

clearly he was born to make movies, but somehow ended up making games and he's true destiny leaks in game trailers.

THE16THPHANTOM MGS Games Cinematics are way ahead of it's time. Altough MGS 4 one is pretty bland I guess. MGS V is certainly interesting from cinematic perspective because there is an pure legit cinematography that Games rarely had. The cutscenes in MGS V were actually meaningful and tells us story in unconventional way that kinda backfired in gaming community (passive and almost muted storytelling, what you see is what you get) but is used in many movies.

Jordan won me in the first 10 seconds.

Just occurred to me that the recent return of Twin Peaks has striking similarities to the twist in Metal Gear Solid 2. Both intentionally subverted audience expectations and hype of a sequel to meditate on identity, deception, grief, etc. With MSG2, fans were hyped to play as Solid Snake once again but were given Raiden, who is us, the player. With Twin Peaks, audience looked forward to the return of Agent Dale Cooper, but is given Dougie Jones.

it would be great if someone subtitled this. Its pretty hard to keep up the way it is...

oh sure that's why his games and dialogue are from a cheesy 80's B movie. He comes up with great stories but when it comes to the screenplay and real human emotions he has non.

Naughty dog has nailed emotions story telling and everything all around, Except maybe gameplay.
