Perhaps the best way to celebrate a video game birthday is to play it. He did, for example. Stephanie Joosten with Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom PainIn it I played quietOur channel did a long live stream on Twitch, lasting about three and a half hours, where I played the game live, and I wistfully commented on the time I had and how essential the experience was for me.
Dramatic story
Joosten also gives some background on the development and how nice it was to help make the game, the last one signed by Hideo Kojima for Konami (if we don’t count PT, which wasn’t a full game anyway). We watch the video and celebrate with her.
If you remember, Quiet was one of the most popular characters in Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain as well. Because of his uncovered clothesJoosten gave her the look, played the character and also gave her voice. It was Kojima himself who wanted her after seeing her confidence in the audition, and she is the only one present who knows video games well and can play a serial killer in a convincing way.
The reason behind Kojima’s desire to calm down half-naked is known.Also because he was the one who explained it on X (Twitter at the time). There is an internal motivation to the story of course, but the truth is that the master wanted to have interesting characters to inspire cosplayers, so he satisfied Yuji Shinkawa, the character designer, as well as his historical friend and collaborator. Let’s say that in his own way he had a great intuition, given the very large number of quiet cosplays circulating online and at trade shows.
For the rest, we remind you that Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain was released on September 1, 2015 on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 3, Xbox One and Xbox 360. The PC version was published on September 15 of the same year.
