=/ and here we go!
No I think he's real. Too many details. Perfect lighting. Even Hollywood hasn't reach this level with CG so in real-time with Fox Engine, it's highly doubtful.
Looks real to me.
Where are his eyelashes? I hope that isn't another affliction.
obviously clipping inside his head
You can even see the shadow of his eyelashes on his bandage to the right of his right eye.

Seems like some of his left eyelashes are clipping through the bandage...in-engine CG!

I'd doubt it was realtime. Doesn't rule out CG, though.
I noticed that on the right side, but look at the left.

Yeah, I'm out...here are my chips. Fuck this shit.

And what will you do if it's cg? Send the thread to Kojima? =D

LOL, if this is CGI, I'll buy 10 PS4s at launch!
and sell 9 of them
He cuts his eyelashes, simple as that. No way in hell is this CG guys come on.

Here's the twist... it's Geoff Knightley that's been CGI all along and Joakim Mogren is real. All of those Doritos and Mountain Dew endorsements have been used to fund the existence of Geoff Knightley.
If it's true, props to Kojima. Really, if it turns out real... then he got me hard. Because I'm 100% sure it's not cg.
I'm not talking about shadows, the left eye looks like it literally has no eyelashes.

I honestly can't tell well enough to make a call. (Edit: and if someone who works in CG land can give me some reasons why a mix between cg and real actor for the dev is impossible, I'd love to hear them.) What makes you so sure it's not, though?
His accent is Southern Norwegian, not Swedish. I have nothing to prove this.
This actually sounds just like the plot of an MGS game.

8GB of GDDR5 wasn't enough for those lashes.

Oh my god...his accent is CG! Fox Engine is incredible!

Look for me on the local news, I'll be the guy arrested for trying to burn down a Nintendo exec's house.
Pie and Beans pledges that it was his mid-morning slump that lead to his blood sugars having him doubt himself. Thats a real dude. Fuck all y'all. You won't get me Kojima. You won't.
I'm not really on board with the CG theory, but...
Didn't Cliffy B. mention that Kojima showed him something mindblowing some time ago? Maybe this recent tweet jokingly refers to a tech-demo:
No, Kojima showed him the Ground Zeroes demo we've already seen.
Why is there enough eyelash to project a shadow on the right side then?

No fucking way. That has got to be a coincidence. That's too perfect.I'm not really on board with the CG theory, but...
Didn't Cliffy B. mention that Kojima showed him something mindblowing some time ago? Maybe this recent tweet jokingly refers to a tech-demo:
He's kidding, silly. No one cuts their eyelashes.
In that case, what would be the point if it's not showing what Fox Engine can do?
Reference to Shadow Moses.
Ah okay, never mind then.
It's probably not CG. But maybe it is... I don't know what to believe anymore.
What if it was CGojima? The real one was in a networked motion capture booth controlling his digital clone?

I worry for the person who doesn't find this bizzarre.

He is supposed to be Swedish right? That is obviously not a Swedish accent, sounds like someone trying to sound Swedish but failing hard, sounds more Norwegian, but still not right.
The bandage is closer to the eye on the right side.

NeoGAF: my new HOME
This thread is incredible. GAF at its absolute best. Kojima is so obviously just fucking with everyone he's either actually a demented genius or gone so far off the rails that nobody dares stop him for fear of their own life.
I know, right. How could anyone think that "Joakim" is... wait, what's the side that's being fooled?
If it's CG its not real-time and was mo-capped till the end of times and they might as well just pre-record some actor. Actually I found the interview a bit ridiculous because no information was given and it was obviously just to put a face on the man. If it is indeed cg then he will probably be a character from the game (hence the bandages).
I'm both and I'll put my life savings on that squint being amongst the squintieist I've ever seen. It's a squint alright. A 100% dyed-in-the-wool squinter of a man is this Joakim fellow.
GAF's collective stupidity? Yes, it's almost tangible.
No, there are others like you here. You're safe.

Didn't you see the character in bandages during the gameplay bits?

I'm on my phone so I can't do it but can someone check to see the bandages match in terms of lighting/texture after each cutaway to GK. What if they're using liveaction mixed with cgi in alternating segments to the degree we don't notice?

The side that thinks Joakim isn't Joaquin. Obviously.
