Microsoft acquired Kojima for the name not the game. Blizzard is producing next to nothing but means to generate revenue with Microsoft's money. As far as I can tell anything gaming that touches Microsoft/EA money is dead. WoW Forever is quite literally the cheapest way to make a quick dollar, and extend that $15/mo subscription "forever"

Too many words that don't refute the fact that how great Kojima might have been in past productions, without Microsoft's deal, he would have had to close shop instead.

If Kojima wasn’t a revered auteur of videogames, he would never had Microsoft offer him a deal.

Fame is not a gold pass, as proven by many other revered ones that weren't so lucky, across all kind of art forms, and sports.

WoW Midnight is really showing the strain.
