    Then how do you explain this:

    “Keighley went on to detail how shocked he was when he found out that Konami didn’t allow Kojima to attend last year’s Game Awards.” (a quote from the article)

      Idk I don’t work there. Imagine there’s a lot of bad blood from trying to rein in Kojima, which eventually pushed him into starting his own studio.

        I’m pretty sure he started his own studio because they fired him. Though I suppose that’s just order of operations.

        The weird part was they denied to the public that he would no longer be working for Konami. Kojima was verbal for months that he was no longer working for Konami, they just pretended he still did.
