Kojima isn’t JJ Abrams.

Abrams writes mystery box stories where everything hinges on resolving the box and ends up with an ultimately lackluster resolution.

Kojima stories are confusing webs within webs throughout. They exist on theme and vibe, while being simultaneously incredibly well researched, intentionally absurd, and with ill advised choices that surely mean something when they were made.

Kojima is the Richard Kelly of video games.
