>The invisible fetus symbolize how Kojima's "baby", the MGSV becoming his phantom pain
>The ashore whales is his former studio (Moby Dick)
>Reedus is Kojima's self-insert; samey face but being an white American. (It's no secret that Kojima is a massive westaboo and wake up every morning wishing he was white)
>5 floating man symbolize his biggest achievement yet (the mainline MGS series); looking down at him as if they're saying, "Come on boy, let see how you can top us"
Literally the Da Vinci of our time. We are truly blessed to call him one of us (the gamer), his talent would have been a waste in other medium.
I'm curious to hear what are your taking of the trailer, /v/
>>341253481
it's another video game that i might play but if it's not first person or have pvp than no it can fuck off

>"Come on boy, let see how you can top us"
"Hello I am a 3d artist from Kojima Productions and instead of being working on real 3d models for the game I waste my time with this POS of a trailer, thanks sony for your money"
>>341253481
I'LL KEEP COMING
Dog=Kojima
Cookie=MGS
Woman=Konami
>>341253910
don't be jealous of my shelf. I might build you one, if you play your cards right
not bad
>>341253481
So the five floating guys are MGS1 through PW and the baby is V, torn from his freaky man-womb unfinished and flung out into this cruel world to fend for itself? That makes me wonder, MGS2 is very obviously unfinished as well, does Kojima view it similarly at all to V or is it different because 2 still got its main themes across clearly (and flawlessly IMO) and was not in its state due to studio meddling?
Norman Reedus has pretty chinky eyes btw so I'd buy him as a Kojima self-insert.
I loved the "Lovecraftian" theme to the trailer.
looking forward to playing this on PC
I'm pretty hopeful for it, I just hope it isn't some boring survival horror.
Kojima should have just become in charge of putting together trailers, its all he is good at.
>>341254356
Good for you.You might have to wait a while, though.
I think it's just a really bold thematic teaser that's more about setting mood than setting plot-points.
If I had to guess something about a soldier or scientist character who works on some military base, and then he's involved with an experiment to create life but it fails and he feels guilt about monsters he indirectly creates, and the game is him fighting them in a dead-space style combat system in a relatively open base area a la a larger, more complex Shadow Moses type facility. The game won't have many characters and focus a lot on survival horror, but since Shinkawa is still involved I'll be expecting some more action heavy combat-styled bosses.
As to the whale beaching thing maybe that's saying the setting will be some desolate island once used for whaling, maybe near the poles.
I liked the trailer because it was really creepy and bizarre and surprised me and a lot of my friends. It's interesting, but I bet the next trailer will be more straightforward.
You NEVER see blockbuster hollywood shit pull this creator meta garbage in such a direct and obvious way. Yet here Kojima is, doing it in a soon to be movie-game.
>>341254332
>Lovecraftian
>>341254623
Just proving how much of a visionary he is.
>>341254230

>>341253481
>mfw that autism
i would chuckle IF there wasnt the bitter truth how autistic Kojimbo fans are
Seeing naked Norman Reedus pulling presumably his own child up to his chest and crying was some heavy shit, their was no context whatsoever but it really pulled at my heart strings.
>>341253481
Symbolism my ass.
Reminds me of oil spill. I am simple man.
>>341254926
>tripfag talking about autism
oh the irony
Have all PCuks, Nintoddlers and XBrots killed themselves already?
>>341253481
That's so fucking stupid and I can't believe you made a thread on it.
Also im glad he got Norman Reedus still, he's one of my favorite tv actors.
I reversed the sound effect at the end, it definitely sounds like there's someone speaking sounds hidden in the audio.
http://vocaroo.com/i/s0hpqSSCjzuE
All I can say is Kojima is out of his mind but now I want to see his game
>>341255260
But here's Spiderman! Fucking lol at Sony
so in other words, that triler was just some fucking random trash that doesnt mean anything at all and has nothing to do with the game other that the actor whos playing the main character.
Im sooooooooooooooooooo interested in this movie .
The cover is basically confirmation that this story, while being able to stand on its own, will also be a metaphor for what had entailed in MGSV. Norman Reedus being Big Boss, of course.
>r=2GM/c2 aka Schwarzschild radius (sometimes historically referred to as the gravitational radius) is the radius of a sphere such that, if all the mass of an object were to be compressed within that sphere, the escape velocity from the surface of the sphere would equal the speed of light.
>Kojima moved faster than the light in his intro escaping the collapsing Konami
Here's an amazing theory.
It's got fuck all to do with kojima and konami and it's got something to do with oil spills and the human race as a whole.
>>341256742
>Art can't have more than 1 interpretation
>>341256742
lel so Kojima is just salty?
I doubt Konami gives a fuck at all since they swim in money anyway.
Might as well skip on this game
>>341256838
shit I didn't mean it like that
I'm cool with people making their own interpretations, I love art that provokes interpretation but I just think the abundance of "oh it's about kojima and the MGS series" I just think that's silly.
>>341256090
Or maybe, just maybe, Kojima is a massive talentless hack.
This game is what he meant by "oreo game"
>>341253481
Close.
>baby is PT, as it was still in its infant stages when it was kill
>crabs and fish are the fans he let down with what happened to mgsv
>the oil shit is his tarnished reputation and shamefur dispray he vows to make right
You right about the whales and floating men though.
>>341253481
Um waiting early for this masterpiece
>>341256742
all the fucking fish, whale and even the crabs have cords (just look at the ground near start of the trailer)
I'm sure those aren't oil
Only theory I find somewhat acceptable that this is some kind of earth restart or terra forming and the man simply Adam
I don't know whether to be hopeful or annoyed that conceptual art themes are becoming trendy in vidya.
Were DS and RE7 the highest points of E3 2016? Funny both happened at the same conference.
>>341257449
at least they try, and they should try something new more,
that happy few sth sth game also should be encourage,
compare to stupid shit like lel cool hacker may may from ubisoft or "it's another military
shooter"
Now what's the actual game will be about
>there has been an alien invasion
>the floating people were in fact aliens and each one will be a boss at some point
>Norman Reedus is the hero that will save the world
>>341253481
I just like to imagine hideo sitting on a chair reading through this theories people came up with and laughing his ass off for the bullshit you found in a single simple trailer he made
>>341258042
He likes to play with people, he appeared earlier in the Pope stream, he said he wouldn't be showing anything, and he was wearing a shirt with the initials DS.
>>341257415
Huh, an earth restart, and an Adam without an Eve. So there might actually be some male pregnancy shit right here, which would explain the scars.
>>341253481
>muh symbolism
Kojima is nearly as pretentious as Jonathan "I spent 7 years on a puzzle game" Blow
>>341257974
alien invasion put cords in all life form then kill them all off later by black liquid?
>>341257415
>>341258304
I can't see how this would fit with the "it's a game for people who like AAA shooters like Uncharted and The Division" statement from Kojima, unless he was lying his face off.
post yfw sonyggers waited 6 months for a trailer about male pregnancy
>>341253481
>"Come on boy, let see how you can top us"
Won't be too difficult to top the fourth and fifth floating men then.
>>341258542
Kek
Gold one anon
>>341258304
>So there might actually be some male pregnancy shit right here, which would explain the scars.
>Kojima takes the "Chico is Quiet" shit seriously and makes a game where you play as a post-op transsexual
>>341258487
Probably lying.
>>341253481
CHAPTER 3 CONFIRMED
>>341254623
That's why I'm hyping it up in my head, I think. This is just weird enough to be interesting.
kojima ripping of dark souls. thats low
>>341253481
Kojima is the example of games not being art. I would expect this from a rabid feminist 'art show' then a game director.
>G-guys the fetus attached to me actually represents
No fuck off.
>>341258798
Could be transsexual, or could be some weird Xenomorph-style pregnancy shit.
>>341254295
MGS2 is not unfinished. I know you're refering to that design doc that got out a few years ago, but literally every design doc describes a better, larger, more complex game that what ends up coming out.
It's just the reality of game development.
>>341258304
yeah yeah the scar is a fucking cross
baby may be eva
5 man floating basically arch angels
this is earth after the final judgement, killing all life with black liquid (may be oil since they are really harmful, imagine a tsunami made of oil)
all the "dog tags" are humanity knowledge....
ah fuck it my head hurts
>>341258487
this, I was thinking well it should be a all round action game then but kojima hasn't forgot his mindfuckering
>>341257315
kek
>>341253481
>muh unfinished david bowie tribute: the game
Anyone keen to explain this shit?
>>341257341
Hmm..I like your interpretation anon, and they're pretty much the thing that I missed.
Maybe we can combine them for the next thread OP.
>>341255923
2 spooky
I'm really hoping the desolate feelings of the trailer persist. Looking forawrd to it being about some kind of personal revenge or redemption, and not about saving anything or anyone. The idea of a character fighting for basically nothing (aside from deep personal goals) gets me rock fucking hard.
>>341254623
That is because Hollywood shit is a mass market product. You also don't expect a chef to work at a mcdonalds.
You fucking philistine.
>>341259736
yeqh its worked into the text art too, must be an inportant thing in theme or gameplay.
>>341259736
That baby is evil?
>>341259392
What if it's just Silent hills with a new title? Maybe Reedus was supposed to be a male incubator for the SH god
>>341259736
Someone mentions that land is essentially death and the ocean is life
Why does the handcuffs glow? Remember this is Kojima, we can't let anything pass by, every little detail means something.
>>341255923
>MFW I hear HIDEO KOJIMA
>>341259736
>>341260045
There are some heavy themes about birth in the trailer, so everything seems to have synthetic umbilical cords. We can kind of assume the game will have something to do with "Synthetic Birth" or something along those lines.
>>341259736
there are also cords on the crabs (small lines on the ground at the start of the trailer
at first naked man and baby seems to be connect by the cords, but it turns out he has a cross scar on his belly instead,
many think it is abortion symbolism,
I could represent that this naked man some how "out of the system", the cords removed from him and leave a scar, thus for why he's the only man standing and alive
>>341260038
>video games aren't mass market products
Then why is sony funding it? Out of love for art?
>>341260208
I think this was there to make it clear to the viewer and tone of the trailer that this is in fact science fiction and not pure fantasy.
>>341260085
naah, too much science fixtion.
>>341253481
The "dog tags" around the neck are more analagous to the MGS series. 6 of them, he's historically used them, and they look like are heavy enough to act as weights.
I thought it was going to be something scifi alien shit like HL2
>>341260208
humh, it must be scanning for a hand, aka his partner, but failed
it stop glowing later in the trailer
>>341260361
Videogames ARE a mass product bullshit thing too. But complaining that Kojima released a "muh art" trailer and complaining about being a product for mass audience is completely retarded.
Keep an eye on Kojima's twitter in the next couple of weeks, if he mentions Matrix then we'll know what the game is about.
>>341260085
>a male incubator for the SH god
Has that been done before? I'm not very familiar with Silent Hill stuff, I thought it has to be some girl with specific characteristics and stuff
>>341253481
>The invisible fetus symbolize how Kojima's "baby", the MGSV becoming his phantom pain
>You play the game as an alcoholic fuck who spends all his cash on a horse-face hooker and this kills the baby
>>341257224
>>341256090
I don't believe the RUSE bullshit but for fun, and this is always fun; let me speculate if it is a ruse and this is MGS the same way TPP was hidden and said not to be MGS
Norman Reedus is Ocelot. This is a psychological thriller that alternates between inside his head and the real world post MGS3 and pre MGSV: GZ. The 5 floating men are Ludens, humans once alive that transcended humanity. It takes a rip out of the actual book of ludens, time wanderers (a Russian 1984 book). We come to learn that the 6 aborted children from the octuplets within the les Enfant Terribles project are those 5 floating guys. The baby is the remaining 6th clone that hasn't transcended humanity yet and Ocelot is trying to connect with him symbolized as umbilical cord which looks like an acoustic cables. As Ocelot defeats his inner demons and each of the ludens, connecting with them. He eventually becomes the antithesis of Big Boss rather than big boss, as was his dream
Who was the antithesis of what Big Boss stood for? Skull Face
>>341260572
I'm not complaining about trying something risky ("risky") and artistic. I'm complaining about the ego centric, narcissistic, muh projects im a creator, meta bullshit that some people believe the trailer to be about.
>>341260545
it has some science formula written on it, about black holes, gravity and shit
must represent mankind knowledge or sth sth about god "word"/ god "power"
>>341260549
It could still be, Kojimbo said that this is going to be an action game, the trailer is most likely something made for E3 and its only purpose is to tease the story. Which is what Kojimbo traditionally does with his trailers.
>>341253910
>McKill you are shelf
>McKill your e-shelf
>>341260728
He has always done that in his games though, that's why people are doing it. Let people have their fun.
>>341260728
Are you fucking retarded? This is Kojima, of course the man is an egomaniac that could pull that of. Then again I think that the meaning of the trailer is just to tease the story of the game and nothing more.
>>341260676
Man, what the fuck are you smoking
So do you guys the baby is still there but just invisible again ? we clearly saw it/heard it ... what is he holding ?retards
>>341260943
>Man, what the fuck are you smoking
What Kojima was smoking all along anon
This pic was made before the shit storm. Search your heart for it to be possible. I don't believe in ruses, but if there is one this is definitely what it means
>>341260676
Dude, What?
>>341259736
It's literally Matrix in space.
What does it mean?
>>341259736
>5 USB sticks, 5 figures
>USB sticks have quantum maths scripted on them, the 5 figures are 5 alternative Keenus
>Stranding stands for beaching, as in sea creature beaching/stranding
>Strand also stands for the fiber, copper etc. wire running within cables
>The scar on Keenus stomach is similar to c-section scar, but also removes his belly button
>The baby has a cable running to it's stomach like umbilical cord, symbolizing connection
>Keenus scar symbolizes his unavailability to connect
>>341260676
KOJIMA PLS LEAVE
>Norman Reedus agrees to work on 'new horror game' with Kojima
>Norman Reedus was main character for Silent Hills before it got cancelled.
>Norman Reedus is now main character for Death Stranding
This is a sci-fi horror.
>>341261041
the baby join the invisible people of oil or sth,
>>341261165
this may represent the concept of spirit, after life etc
Music is ace
>>341260676
There's a somewhat more reasonable way to look at it, if we must insist that it be an Ocelot-based ruse. Remember, Ocelot was born by cesarean on the battlefield of Normandy. He was unnaturally separated from his mother on a beach littered with the dead; that's rather relevant, don't you think?
>>341260676
GIVE ME WHAT YOU'RE SMOKING MAN. I NEED IT
>>341261235
6 usb anon, 6 usb
>>341261165
Aiens invaded the earth and are using it to gather energy and materials without considering the damage they do to the Earth, kinda like we as humans do in smaller scale on certain parts of the planet.
>>341261098
Ocelot is Troy Baker man, have you seen him? I'm sorry, but image makes no sense. Kojima is done with mGS. Konami has made that clear. It's done.
The most Metal Gear you'll get out of this is some symbolism, as some other anons have mentioned. I've been an MGS fan from the get go, but I'm more of a Kojima fan. Snatcher and Zone of the Enders were dope as fuck too, and I'm personally looking forward to NEW shit.

Inability to connect?
>>341261552
YOU'RE FUCKING ON TO SOMETHING
HAVE YOU'RE REPORT ON MY DESK ASAP
>>341261524
He's taking about Ocelot between MGS3 and GZ. Before the middle age crisis and deeper voice
Plus anyway, he's saying if there's a ruse and he knows there isn't. Read that post carefully
Looks weird as fuck, as expected of Kojima.
I have a feeling I missed something Kojima related.
>>341261415
It's fantastic
>>341256389
This is some fucking bullshit. How does this faggot manage to keep up a ruse for this long at this extreme of a level?
>>341261552
nah his handcuff and the cord look like high tech shit
also the 5 floating guys aremecha
>>341260676
>This actually makes sense
Good thing this isn't MGS because if it was, then this would've been too much of a mind fuck. I think it's a environmental game around aliens desu
>>341261415
I'LL KEEP COMING
Stefanie Joosten in the game confirmed.
This guy https://twitter.com/KaoticSnake tweeted something some hours ago. He said "if Norman is Adam, I think I know who is Eve :)" but deleted his tweet quickly. (he knows her personally)

>>341261415
Listening to the album right now, am up until the fifth song. "I'll keep coming" seems to be the most intriguing with the deep bass disturbing sound effects, the rest sounds like more run of the mill indie, like synth-radiohead.
>>341262527
Sex scene mocap?
>>341262645
Now you're getting it.
Sadly, I think that's as far as the links are gonna go, as much as I'd love more MGS, especially Ocelot-focused MGS.

>>341262760
Where did that image on the left actually come from? I've seen it everywhere but never knew the origin.
>>341262974
late 2018/very early 2019 considering Kojima is hiring top-tier devs and is using an already existing engine.
>>341262645
>>341262959
Fuck, maybe there is something to this Ocelot theory.
>adam and eve
Remember Ocelot's real name?
>>341253481
I think calling reedus white is quite a stretch, I'm not even being a /pol/ memer here.
>>341262942
>>341262754
What if it's something about Adam and Eve. A new cycle begins and there are no woman. Only Norman and the baby which could be a male. If the wires are coming from the ocean, then it means that Norman will have to go underwater maybe deep sea game when we explore old civilization or something.

>>341263325
While I want to get on the ruise cruise, Kojimbo and Konami's public relationships are SO badly and so into the public knowledge that there is almost 0.0001% chance that it is true.
BUT if someone could put a ruse of this size in the gaming industry (Konami/Kojimbo bad breakup being a ruse) that would be Kojimbo.
>>341263608
>da Vinci
>symbolism
dude what
>made 6 metal gears
>5 people
Good job op
>>341263735
Nobody cares about PW.
>>341260361
not dude you responded to, but it seems like Sony is doing both. It's really exciting to see Kojima now unhinged artistically, but they also understand that with a game under Kojimbo's name, it's bound to sell like crazy
>>341263623
I know, I know. It's not gonna happen. There's no reason why we can't have fun seeing the connections regardless. After all, his new work will no doubt be at least somewhat inspired by metal gear and his painful breakup with Konami.
this trailer made me emotional.
There's just something about a handsome man being caring about a little baby that makes my womb feel weird.

There are five games in the main series. Peace Walker is not one of them
>>341263939

I'M STILL COMING

No, pretty sure it's because it signals that he's a good mating partner.
>>341264068
ADAM CONFIRMED! HE DOESN'T HAVE A BELLY BOTTOM!
Is more likely a Matrix scenario where humans and human life are being farmed.
Dorito Pope interviewing Kojima:

>>341264068
wew lad
He just raped by a baby who gave birth to himself.
>>341264116
Peace Walker literally was created as MGS5 but they swapped the names.
It is 100% part of the main series you faggot its not a spin off
>>341261760
Because Kojima is free from Konami
>>341253481
We already have been here beforr
The same thing happen on mgs4, in mgs v and now with his new games.
The dream is dead
I hope this doesn't become the main theory.
As an anon mentioned earlier in the thread, the baby being P.T. makes more sense.
>>341264325
Wait
Adam didn't have a belly button?
Do Christfags really believe this?
>>341257382

It's not like Reedus is going to stuff the baby into a playstation and start playing PT.
The baby obviously isn't PT.

Great. I spent all night bragging to my friend that it's PS4 exclusive and this morning he showed me the interview saying it's coming to PC.
Now all my roommates are going to bully me all day.
>>341264203
Starting to look like a covert Xbot shill, fampai.
Money and artistic merit/achievement are not mutually exclusive..
As someone who has never beat a MGS game and feels like it's too late it feels great that he is making something new I can get into.
I only played the first MGS and I was young and sucked at games at the time.

You mean Leviathan theme to the trailer you buzzword spouting faggot.
>>341264563
IT makes sense in canon dumbass. why would adam have one?
>>341264772
man if that's the kind of stuff your roommates bully you over you lead a sad life
>>341263531
I just re-watched, It's definitely some kind of vulcanic activity, quenched beccia pillow lobe that has ruptured most likely. Note the glowing, and the reflection in the whale's skin.

Norman Reedus is a transsexual cyborg warrior from the future. He's trying to stop the apocalypse caused by pollution as represented the oil.
He mourns the loss of his stillborn son who he had a c-section for. Out of grief he then turned to religion. The ghosts in the sky are the memories of his fallen comrades from the future.
>>341264701
only question in thread that deserves answer
>>341264842
Actually, it's pretty reminiscent of Shadow Over Insmouth, or Dagon.
>>341264872
While we're at it, this is definitely some kind of winged ghouley.
>>341265176
Who was handprints?
>>341256389
I've heard of that. It's often used in relation to black holes.
>>341253481
Fucking lol, Kojima doesn't like making games anymore, he likes making trailers. This David Cage knock off is going to have 50 fucking pretentious trailers just like Phantom Shit and /v/ is going to gobble up every last crum of Kojima's shit, again.
>>341255923
spook
Alright so we all this wacky stuff going on, but where does pic related fit in?
>>341253481
He's foreshadowing his death
Someone screen cap this, it's gonna happen
>>341265285
And this is the reason why Reedus has never 'exposed' himself, as it were.
>Death Standing
What does this mean?
>>341265354
Probably this. Let's hope not but yeaaaa
>>341253481
>why were you crying :[?
>thingken of ps4 games
The sea represents the primordial ocean.
Norman Reedus crawling out of it symbolizes lifeforms evolving from sea creatures to land dwellers. Further supporting this idea is that the land seems blackened and undeveloped, we don't see much on land besides desolate earth and what looks like lava. Very similar to the conditions of primordial Earth.
His baby represents his future progeny, which leaves him and their attachment/ dependence on the ocean (umbilical cords) to propagate over the land. If you'll notice, the fish do NOT have umbilical cords, however all the "amphibious" creatures like crabs (who are able to walk on both land and sea) and whales (who are mammals and surface to breathe) DO have cords.
This act of leaving the ocean is forbidden, just like how the fruit of knowledge is forbidden in the Genesis story. Maybe because the land houses far too much new resources. Reedus successfully became a man, a land-dweller. While the other creatures threw themselves onto the land, they only succeeded in beaching themselves and died, because while the desired the land they ultimately couldn't untether themselves from the sea. Only Reedus broke through this frontier.
The five figures have a problem with this. We all know Kojima likes teams of bosses with unique personalities, quirks, and abilities. These 5 "angels" are probably the Cobra Unit/ FOXHOUND of this game.
>>341264772
I wish my roommate would suck my dick like a little cock-sucking slave bitch (he's a male).
>>341264791

>he criticized sony in a thread about a Sony exclusive game! MS SHILL!
If Sony really cared about the project, they wouldn't have canceled the PC port.
I think we need the intellectual giants over at >>>/lit/ to help decrypt this trailer
>>341264847
Neither Adam nor Eve had one, their sons did because they were born, not created.Not even a christian fag, god damn it how can you be so uncultured that you don't even know that Adam doesn't have a belly button?
>>341265354
>>341265476
He does like to try many things and he tried to do open world with MGS V but I believe Konami's internal struggles hindered the process. I mean after all the stupid shit they've done, it would be only logical that they're the ones to blame.
>>341264872
>quenched beccia pillow lobe

IS JUNJI ITO STILL INVOLVED WITH THIS?
I MUST KNOW

>>341265470
It's death himself who is given a chance at life. Lel
Why does kojimbo like reedus so much?
>>341265735
The bible doesn't say that. How do you know god didn't poke Adam in the stomach when he was molding the clay?
>>341265413
That's Eva
I am so sick and tired of Kojima trying to be the fucking Evangelion of games.
>>341266084

I'm going to marry Norman Reedus!
>>341265753
Yeah okay, you have a point... I do like Kojima, don't get me wrong. He made 3 of my favorite games so yeah.
>>341265887
>>341265735

>>341266163
How does that girl eat with such a small mouth?
Also what happened to her nose? was she born without one?
>>341253481
Norman Reedus is clearly Lucy from PT and that is why a baby was carved out of him and taken.
>>341266335
Yea he loves the character he plays apparently. If you look at it, hes a fanboy who has hired him to work for him. I bet if he got Normoon before Kiefer he would be Snake in MGSV

>wasn't specified in the canon so it doesn't matter if I assume they're just like regular people
>no time wasted
Didn't have to think about it at all.
>>341266181
Walking Dead is a level of pleb even below GoT, if Kojima wasn't some facebook tier normie he'd try and get the guy who played Rust or something.
>>341253481
Maybe the five men are MGS mainline and the baby is Silent Hills, his stillbirth.
The game will be a metanarrative of Kojima's time at Konami.
Is this what they call "kino"?
>>341266181
>>341266703
has kojima ever even mentioned walking dead?
>>341266917
SSSSSHHHH
You'll summon the fa/tv/irgins.
>>341266672
What kind of "regular person" has a belly button? You're a fucking mutant aren't you?
>>341266767
Dude is that self indulgent, this seems quite plausible.

>Halfway through the game Reedus has children named Hideo and Kojima
This guy holds the younger version of himself. The metaphor for loosing his innocence, when the child disappears and turns into oil - oil that killed all the fish on the beach.
I would happily let Norman Reedus fuck my butt
Finally, a smart game for smart gamers
>>341267257
>from REEDUS two phantoms were born
>>341254548
oh it surprised some of your friends too?
>>341254295
Why is 5 considered unfinished? It's fucking great.
for reals though, it clearly is about Oil, some theme about oil killing the ocean wildlife
oil filled the sand in the handprints, his baby turned into oil in his hands, the lines of oil were dripping off the title
most likely gonna talk about earth health and mankinds impact on the world, the same way that MGS was about War/Nuclear war

>Getting Bullied.

>>341266672

>>341267519
Being unfinished isn't about being good or bad, SaGa Frontier is an unfinished game and it's great, it's about being rushed and having a lot of its planned content cut.
>>341266917

And MGS 1 - 2 and 4. I'd never had a PS as a kid but played all through 4 this fall and they still hold up. Once you learn how they want you to play them they are actually really easy games.

BIG ADAMSKA CONFIRMED
LADS I'VE JUST REMEMBERED THE MISSING LINK IN ALL THIS
Back in 2014, long before MGSV was released, before he became independent and started working on Death Stranding and unless I'm misinformed before the falling out with Konami, Kojima was location scouting in Iceland.
Iceland, a country that does not feature in MGSV in any capacity whatsoever. Iceland, the native country of Low Roar.
I think there may be a ruse afoot.
http://www.metalgearinformer.com/?p=15521
>>341267265
Fuck Sigmund you've cracked it
Say what you want about the game but the engrish title is objectively retarded.
Call if Stranded Dead or something.
>>341261165
I instantly started to think that it was reference to the 5 stages of grief
>>341268282
Like this: https://tcrf.net/Metal_Gear_Solid_V:_The_Phantom_Pain_(Windows)
>>341267265
Sigmund does it again what a guy

>>341267431
Yeah! This is completely not in your face AAA gaming! Like Bioshock Infinite!
>>341253481
If it's not another Last of Us I don't want it.
>>341255753
i hope so
>>341266672

Look at all the letters with oil dripping down from them. It spells out "Eat Standing"
W-what if it features Norman Reedus eating the fetus while standing!
I'm fucking shaking guys holy shit
>>341269251
It's a metaphor for how we have to accept the past (eat it, if you will) to move on with our lives.
>>341268392
"Dead Stranding is the opposite of 'Live Strading', Live Stranding is where something becomes stranded but is still alive, Dead Stranding is the same but where the stranded thing is dead"
Stranded Dead would make no sense there.

Doesn't have a number. It's a spin off.
>>341260676

>>341269992
i'm retarded what GOAT means
>>341269879
While obviously the Icelandic connection is interesting in its own right what's more interesting is that it indicates that this has been planned for a very long time. Either Kojima's just been scheming away for a good long time or this is a ruse of some kind.
>>341269879

>>341269827

>>341264842
Curious what you mean by "Leviathan theme."
I don't really agree that the trailer had Lovecraftian themes or tone, but I really just don't know what you mean.
>>341269827
You're not fooling me you fucking mutant
>>341270296
Thats a cool cover to be honest.
>>341270221
Maybe it's a repurposing of what would've been Sillent Hills?
>>341270296
That Norman is long dead and that Kojima has made a mask of his skin so he can finally live as a white man.

So from where does all the fire come from? what does it mean?
>>341267519
Because it literally is and you can find bits and pieces of the final chapter in the game files
>>341270649
If it's patterned on GOTY then the G should stand for game.
So was it Hideo or Kojima that was at the conference?
>>341270469
It's certainly possible. It would be very odd if that was the case, though. I'm by no means a Silent Hill expert or even a fan, but it's my understanding that Silent Hill is more or less bound to one location in America, right? Besides, PT ended with Reedus entering the streets of some rundown Silent Hill-esque town, one that gave no indication of being at all Icelandic.
I suppose it's possible that the connection might have made itself clear had the game actually been released, but as it stands we have no real reason to think that it was the case.
>>341270819
Kojima. Hideo was the retarded clone I guess
Was the trailer made in FOX engine? Did Konami seriously allow him to keep it after he got fired?
>>341270819

>>341270993
It could've tied into the game in a number of ways besides taking place in Iceland, maybe it would root itself in Icelandic mythology, or taking inspiration from Icelandic nature, which is dreary as fuck, such as black sand beaches.
I guess we'll never know... unless the design documents leak, but that usually takes several decades to happen.

A major theme in the Noon Universe novels is the advanced civilization that secretly influences the development of a lesser civilization. Many of the novels focus on the progressors, groups of Earth humans who live in secret among more primitive societies on other planets and influence their development. Throughout the novels, humanity is aware of its having been influenced by the supercivilization that they call the Wanderers. The morality of this type of influence is a central question posed by the series.
The Ludens, too, secretly influence humanity, but they are thought to be not the Wanderers. Exposition in "The Time Wanderers" reveals that the Ludens themselves perceive two further stages of human development, and that some Ludens may have already progressed onward to some sort of super-Luden existence. Both humans and Ludens seem to believe that the Wanderers represent a civilization still greater than any that ever originated on Earth.

She gave birth in Normandy (beach). She had Ocelot (Adam) but they took him away from her. She was left with the caesarean scar.

so we can gamble that that is what is happening and Norman Reedus is probably the last human held by the Ludens to repopulate the Earth
>>341275443
>Believing anything Kojima ever says.
Much like the fox logo had relevance to MGS I Expect Ludens/the suit to have relevance to this game.
What was the deal wih the part where Norman stopped crying, the background changed slightly and the baby left?
>>341276598
They took the baby and he is going to take them down
>>341262527
Pretty sure she was just saying they fucked IRL.
This is just something you guys do for fun right? You guys don't really beleave that Kojima games have some sort of deep meaning or whatever, right?
>>341276961
But why did the background change?
>>341277415
All his games have very clear theme and message. Why would he change his ways now?
the baby represents more than a literal child being lost, maybe something to do with the character himself. the kid was attached to reedus by this kind of sinister black cord that looked way more synthetic than natural - that combined with the weird belly button scar could insinuate that the character wasn’t born naturally. my theory - reedus’s character is a clone. i’m getting this not only from the “not born naturally” vibe, but from the huge number of “dog tags” he has around his neck. (i see people keep calling them that, but i guess after looking more, they seem kind of different. since i can’t identify them otherwise, i’m gonna run with it) maybe the baby isn’t so much his child as his next incarnation - hence the “i’ll keep coming”, the synthetic attachment, etc. i think the cross shape of his scar could be symbolically important here as well, some virgin birth shit, no real father but his past self. maybe a symbol that he will be a self-sacrificing character.
the way the handprints move up towards reedus, then around him leading to the baby, makes it feel kind of like whatever made those prints is emotionally connected to them both. the handcuffs being only half on reedus - maybe they were previously connected to someone else, who is now gone - maybe the owner of the ghostly handprints? the way they move up to reedus and the child with familiarity, it could be something like the one that came before them. the handcuffs could be less that he was literally attached to someone, and more that he was shackled to his past selves. all he has now are the imprints of the past. so back to the prints, the baby disappears, and we see reedus’s hands are now covered in oil, as if he had been pressing his hands into the beach. then we see the baby’s oily handprints, moving forward. again, this idea that they are all a continuation - the ghostly prints to reedus, reedus to the baby.
They are five floating turds over toxic black shit

>beleave
I do believe you're an idiot or underage for not being able to know how to type
>>341277732
Yeah sure, but all this super deep analysis like in the OP, that's for fun right?
norman reedus is fucking ugly when he cries
>>341256389
What is the other equation, do you think?
>literal autists spending hours trying to figure out the symbolism
>game will be just as shallow as ever Kojima game released in this decade
>>341277840
My bad man, posting from my phone, spell. Check sometimes does crazy things
>>341278150
Men aren't meant to cry.
>>341277642
>>341276598
It didn't change, the camera angle changed so you could see more of what was behind him the whole time.
The fuck is this "kino" meme?
Someone explain this to me.
>>341278150
no, he's hot.
>>341278559
he looks like someone took a shit on a plate and smashed it against a rock
>>341278759
fuck you, it was evoking emotions, I cried too for the reedus fetus
>>341277415
I don't believe anything. His games have a CLEAR theme in all of them this isn't any different. And Kojimbo usually tries to tease that theme and meaning in their trailers.
>>341278331
People speculated that you're not actually Big Boss in MGS5 too, and that came true.
Of course they didn't expect Venom Snake to be a literally who, but that's another story.
>>341261165
Is anything safe from alchemy at this point?
Even Pokemon isn't safe from alchemy.
>Saltwater
To see or taste saltwater in your dream symbolizes tears and heartache. It may also indicate some emotional outburst or suffering.
boys this shit is crazy holy fuck
>>341278976
Yeah, but no one expected Quiet to be naked because muh parasites and photosynthesis and no one expected Skull Face to be a fucking retard.
Every single character in the game was extremely shallow and didn't require any skill to write.
>>341253481
It's just a bunch of pretentious wank.
Kojima back then had people to work with and or tell him nah dude, shit's fucking stupid.
Now look at MGS V, shit was stupid. George Lucas effect.
>>341278513
japanese word for film or something
/tv/ meme
just disregard it
>>341277753
What if the kid is EVE, but she somehow turned into a baby. That could explain the one free handcuff. They were both handcuffed but she turned into the child.
>>341278331
>MGS5 starts
>You clearly hear For the man who sold the world
>a doppelganger song
>you play a doppelganger in the game
>people think this is a random idea and not deliberated planted for the people that are able to see the connections.
>>341279459
>>341278513
Cinema in slavic contries
>>341279716
now just find the worst possible interpretation of I'll Keep Coming.
Kojima's going to base the story around it.
>>341279383
A lot of people speculated that quiet powers came from the same thing that avoided her to use cloths, what the fuck are you talking about?
If that reason is retarded or just a coup out to show some boobs is another discussion.
>>341279383
But MGSV was thrown together from scraps of what they had.
Every sign points to the game being like 30 percent done and then then that getting stretched into the full game because konami were cunts.
>>341253481
nope, kojima is not such self important egoistic piece of shit to really design story in that way. you're just projecting your faggotry onto him or simply trolling.
the part we saw in trailer is either some metaphysical intro into real game or the real theme will be about alien beings and doomsday scenario. reedus might be the last human on the planet with some fucked up task aliens put on him.
>>341279383
>Yeah, but no one expected Quiet to be naked because muh parasites and photosynthesis
>no one expected photosynthesis
Fucking seriously nigger? When we have an already established character who does that? With exactly the same combat role?
>>341279564
this game is definitely not just a huge mgs analogy
>>341279985
For the man who sold the world being a song about a doppelganger isn't an interpretation of the song, is THE interpretation of it as its the authors intend when making it. Go look it up, Bowie himself explained the meaning of the song years ago.
>>341272915
You're a special kind of moron if you're unaware that he pulls shit filmmaker symbolism into 90% of his trailers.
>>341253481
what's the gameplay like?
>>341280805
does it matter?
>5 figures; 5 AIs
>Reedus linked to a baby; Raiden's relation to Sunny
>Dog tags; Dog tag Raiden throws away at the end of MGS2
>Formulae on dog tags; Info Raiden obtained from GW
>Futuristic handcuff; Raiden captured by Patriots and cyborg experimentation
>Dead sea creatures; Snake died on that Tanker two years ago
>>341253481
I think the baby is Silent Hills.
>>341280174
No one speculated that it will be that fucking shallow, especially after that tweet "You'll be ashamed of your words".
>>341280219
>because Konami were cunts
What do you mean? They rushed him?
Then how much time did he require? If this was just 30% of the whole game he'd need 10 years to finish it. Fuck off kojimadrone.
>>341278513
Kino means film in German I think
/tv/ used to classify movie between "flick" "film" and "cinema" or something like that depending on how artsy fartsy is the movie.
Marvel shit would be flicks. Taxi Driver or Apocalypse now would be films and Art House 2deep4you shit would be cinema.
Now they use kino as the highest form of film as a joke.
Its not even fucking funny I know. /tv/ peaked with LOST and again with Baneposting.
>>341281032
>he doesn't know kojima games are actually competent games without the funky story
>>341281040
I like this theory as much as the Reedus "Skull Face" Adam theory
>>341267519
The story is unfinished. The game itself is completed and polished.
Somebody asked about the physics equation of the second "dog tag" in the screencap. The first being the Schwartzschild radius of a blackhole.
Well the second is a form of the Dirac Equation in one dimension. Might mean nothing. Might be an allusion to the Dirac Sea. Stretching it further, and given the first tag, maybe white holes.
>>341281798
not entirely, but you're mostly correct
>>341277415
yup just like everyone figured out the medic twist by observing the trailers and also the phantom pain 2012 trailer is a metal gear game and not a stand alone IP
>>341257415
Im sure they died in the cataclysm/portal shit that pooped Normie out where he woke up.
This shit is going to be all about time-travelling
>>341280573
I bet Kojima tried to be friends with Sutherland during their brief stint together and Sutherland rejected him. I bet Sutherland was just generally and ass all throughout production.
>>341257415
>fish and sea life die
>bodies eventually breakdown to carbon and compress
>Become crude oil
maybe it is crude oil think about it, maybe the theme is death and resurection or something
>>341282224
I'm going to guess it's more a multidimensional sort of thing rather than time travel. Cosmic horror. Proper Lovecraft stuff.
Here's a pic of the "dog tags", although to me they look like my adata USB stick.
Also what about the hand marks on himself?
>>341282674
That could be the case too if Ito has anything to do with it
>>341282793
maths n sheeeit
>>341282793
the baby's oil hand prints leave similar marks on his body - marks from his past and future selves if you follow the reincarnation theme idea as I do
>>341282674
As much as I enjoy Lovecraftian shit, quit trying to inject it into shit. Whatever those beings are, they're not some eldritch horror. If they were they wouldn't look human.
>>341281262
>he doesn't understand that gameplay literally doesn't matter if the story is good.
Also someone is "walking" towards the baby from the beginning of the trailer. (Sorry if you already saw this)
>>341283417
what do you know about eldritch horrors, kid?
>>341283059
I could go with a multidimensional cosmic horror stranded and dead/dying in our universe. Sounds like good solid meat for a horror game.
>>341283417
You're assuming they're the antagonists. Also, plenty of HPL's horrors took human form.
>>341281149
How long something take doesn't matter.
You know the whole "rome wasn't built in a day" thing?

>>341281132
That's what I thought, too.
>baby a metaphor for the child that was taken from him (MGS)
>C-section scar a metaphor for havin it ripped from him, stolen
>handcuffs a metaphor for finally being free from Konami
>5 figures a metaphor for his 5 large mainline games, looming up above, bearing down on him, the pressure of outdoing his past achievements
>ocean and Dead Sea life a metaphor for being in a strange new land, has been at Konami for decades and is now in new company
Pretty pretentious and poetic. Nothing in this trailer is remotely related to the upcoming game though, I'd wager.
>>341283583
Invisible hands taking his baby from him
MGSV's lawyers and stuff
next metaphor please
Something about it screamed "Kojima watched End of evangelion for the first time "
>>341283583
Those don't look like human prints, family.
>>341283608
Honestly, not a whole lot. But I know that they're beings that are beyond comprehension. Norman's character doesn't seem to cowering or mind broken so I'm not getting the cosmic horror vibe.
>>341283608
They are good the sex
>>341271805
No, they WERE fun to play. Big difference.
>>341284134
>EVA BD boxset came out last year
It fits
>>341284134
Kojima has always been about 2deep4u hamfisted metaphors it's why i love him
>>341284708
It costs a fucking arm and a leg though. They really need to hurry up and release a standard BD release that's affordable. Fucking pissing me off senpai. No excuse at this point.
anyone got any theories about how Ludens fits into this?
I'd rather world where every game was insane and unplayable. You chucklefucks just want obnoxious RPGs that will give you 'value for money' and 600 hours of cloned content.
>>341268445
huh... it's a valid and a possible theory I rewatched the trailer and after your post it somehow made senseIt doesn't alter the fact that Kojima is a hack, a good one but a hack nonetheless
>>341285112
it's us
it's the player
>>341284595
except when they take the human form.
Anyways, they could be anything, don't always take Lovecraft's narration on them as de facto way to handle them.
Are you fucking mongoloids seriously gonna fall for the EBIN TRAILER MAN XD for a 3rd fucking time?
Purge this fucking place already.
>>341285112
Read the thread
>>341285165
this tbhfam
witcher 3's great and all but after you get to skellige and you see the same shit it just gets boring.
>>341285112
the figures in the skies
>>341285112
The ludens are the aliens that basically extiguish mankind as a punishment for destroying the earth.
>>341261446
this desu, it most be some hight quality weapons grade weed that fucker is taking
>>341284134
how many times will it take before you faggots learn that eva is based off of the biblical mythology, and any time you think something is based off eva its probably just based off the FUCKING BIBLE
>>341285112
kojima himself says ludens is just a mascot
until we see more i am inclined to agree
>umbilical cords
>dirac sea
>muh abstract shit
is it just an americanized evangelion
>>341261990
Because he is the real life Ocelot, a rusemaster born and bred
>>341285209
While I agree, hack writing works for cosmic horror pieces where a dream like sense of surrealism and a bunch of loose threads at the end just adds to the atmosphere.
HPL was a bigger hack than Kojima but it still works.
>>341285830
>ludens is just a mascot
despite the fact that redus is the guy under the mask, and that their moto is found in the lyrics to the trailer, and that the exposition on the site on ludens are based on poems and literature very similar to the themes in the trailer
yeah just mascots
>>341262059
that's some Evangelion level bullshitI like it
>>341285324
Yeah, you're right. I guess I'm just a bit tired of seeing people beg for lovecraft in everything.
It did however really remind me of the adam and eve back story for assassins creed

>$250
>not affordable
wew
>>341285776
>based off of the biblical mythology, and any time you think something is based off eva its probably just based off the FUCKING BIBLE
It's based on the gnostic teaching and Jung
>>341285830
THAT'S FUCKING NORMAN REEDUS YOU CAN NOT DENY THAT LOOK
I have never seen Evangelion and I'm really confused about all the parallels you guys are drawing
>>341285776
> Eva is based on the bible
It's closer to ancient aliens then biblical
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ts11tHPBAEg
damn this album is pretty good senpai
>>341286468
Most other shows have had $40-$50 releases or cheaper, why does EVA have to charge so much for it?
Who the hell but the most rabid fanboy is going to think $250 is reasonable for a BD?
>>341286593
for comparison
>I'll keep coming
What did he mean by this?
>>341286678
Their new album is pretty comfy too
>>341285776
>>341286663
Anno has said he wouldn't have used biblical imagery if he knew it would get so popular in the west because it's not nearly as biblical as everyone thinks
>>341286663
It's a mix of the bible and Gundam. Mostly the latter.
>>341286932
Reedus is probably gonna keep coming for his child which was stolen
>>341262527
