"There's a key moment where we had a discussion, probably halfway [through] when we were doing the game, where he came to me and he said, 'We have a problem,'" Woodkid explained.

"Then he said, 'I'm going to be very honest, we have been testing the game with players and the results are too good. They like it too much. That means something is wrong; we have to change something.' And he changed stuff in the script and the way some crucial stuff [happens] in the game because he thought his work was not polarizing and not triggering enough emotions."

According to Kojima, "If everyone likes [your work], it means it's mainstream. It means it's conventional. It means it's already pre-digested for people to like it."

"I don't want that," Kojima reportedly told Lemoine. "I want people to end up liking things they didn't like when they first encountered it, because that's where you really end up loving something."

Death Stranding 2,

GG : Kojima is spouting nonsense as an in game character in Cyberpunk.

Dammit I just realised I could have whacked him. Or would the mission not allow me too?

So that Switch 2 battery extender seems interesting. I think the weight would be a problem.

You can buy a stick on magnetic ring, that's worth considering.

I wouldn't use it in case it left a mark when I went to take it off and sell it.

But I just realised you could use a command strip and find the lightest thinnest rechargeable powerbank and just snap it on and off.

The DK Direct was cool, definitely the Mario team right?

I'm excited. Love the voice acting for Pauline too.

Well, that certainly got me hyped.  Basically liked everything they showed.  Not sure if it's the Mario team though, there are traces of open world zelda in there and even Splatoon too.  Looks great although the visuals could have been better I feel.  Not sure if the destructible environments are taxing the Switch2 too hard, or if Nintendo still needs to find their feet with pushing graphics further.  Or perhaps they just didn't feel like pushing harder on that front.

Donkey Kong Bananza looks great and like it’ll be a lot of fun to play. The level of destructibility is pretty impressive. An easy day one purchase for me, can’t wait.

I love the texture work in DK Bananza. Looks like Nintendo pulled a Marvel and hid Pauline from us. Love it and have it preordered.

Got to admit, if Nintendo had shown this during the Switch 2 presentation, I might not have jumped at buying the PS5. This really looks fun.

It was their tactic to spite those without the fate.
