Inaba- "I am confident to say we are one of the best studios in the world."
I spotted parries and wall running. I also spotted a lack of lock on, but hopefully that will be in there, or they iron it out so it is not needed.
They really are dodging who the director is. There's no way that Mikami is behind this. Could it?

No way. He's Zenimax's bitch now. Hiroki Kato could be working on it though.
Who's Kato? Im not familiar with him.

Kato is the director of Code Veronica. He's also the lead game designer/writer on God Hand and Vanquish, both of which Mikami directed. He's not exactly a Platinum employee though.
If he is directing/involved somehow I'd say we have nothing to worry about.
The Inaba quote was referring to the action genre which, in my opinion, they are the best studio in the world at developing.
That blade attack doesn't look like it would have reached RINO if he didn't move.

RINO? Really?That blade attack doesn't look like it would have reached RINO if he didn't move.

Vanuish looks awesome so no. But orginal Rising obviously had the MGS4 visual look, which is pretty great.Am I the only one that hates the new art direction? It looks like Vanquish. The original vision was much slicker.
Bahaha, this is amazing.Actually, the first thing I told Inaba when we started to work together on Metal Gear Rising was that I wanted Kamiya to direct the game, Kojima said. But then Inaba told me, If you work with Kamiya, you will be delayed. In fact, you will be very delayed! So, that option was out. Besides, Kamiya told me that theres this old Konami Famicom game called The Legend of Getsu Fūma that he loves, and thats the only Konami property he wants to work on with me. So, well have to see about that.
I already coined RINO for another game. Try again!That blade attack doesn't look like it would have reached RINO if he didn't move.

Yes, really. Spin-off or not I can't imagine Raiden as some cowboy.RINO? Really?
Oh, I thought you meant Ray in name only. XD I have to wonder if this really is Raiden.Yes, really. Spin-off or not I can't imagine Raiden as some cowboy.
Sort of offtopic. But has it ever been explained what the gears run on? I imagine something like rocket fuel back in peace walker times. But was a new energy source discovered to power these things? Besides nanomachines.
So what do we know plot-wise so far?

Just doesn't look like MGS anymore. :/

Totally agree. Vanquish suits Vanquish, obviously, but I believe that the look/feel they initially had suited much better. I guess it is basically turning into Vanquish 2, though, so it'll be cohesive enough; I just prefer its initial iteration.
Holy shit. Kamiya taking a fucking Twitter joke meme troll he started, and turning it into real talk. The man is a MASTER TROLL. In fact, he is the GOD OF TROLLS. :bow
Well, it's running on a completely different engine. It's a trade-off. I prefer the original look, but if this engine and visual pipeline lets Platinum do what they do best quickly and efficiently, it's a small price to pay, as far as I'm concerned.
SO GOOD

I really don't get why people are so hung up about what could have been with the original story. MGS4 and Peace Walker were really bad stories! Did you forget about all the stupid stuff that happened in those? All of the needless retconning and tying things into other things for no good reason? The terrible decisions they made with some of the characters as of late? I really don't know what you guys were expecting from another Raiden solo story from KojiPro, but I think everyone should come to their senses and realize that it would have probably been awful.
It's pretty telling of how bad Raiden's story has been when his best role in the series so far was as a joke character in MGS3.
As an MGS fan, I'd rather just move forward from here and have him be whatever he is. I don't think I need to know how the guy became a robot. Just have him do interesting and cool robot things instead and ignore the loose ends. KojiPro has shown to be really stupid at tying loose ends together. A lot of things in the MGS universe fall apart the more they have to be explained.
