Hideo Kojima has spoken out to defend the length of MGS 5: Ground Zeroes.
As you may know, the latest issue of the GI magazine revealed that the upcoming prologue to Metal Gear Solid V would only take around two hours to complete.
Well, Hideo Kojima went to Twitter to defend the game’s controversial length by saying “I believe people will be satisfied” with the run time…
“MGSV: Ground Zeroes includes the main mission alongside 5 side ops,” Kojima said. “All missions include elements such as ‘Trial Records,’ where players can compete against each other online. This is not a linear game like the past.
“GZ offers freedom of approach and play style, which we hope players will enjoy over and over without boring. I believe people will be satisfied with the ‘play time’ of GZ and will not stress the “clear time,” which is a standard for linear games.”
So, that sounds a bit better, don’t you think?
Remember, Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes will launch on March 18 for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, PlayStation 3, and Xbox 360. It will cost $30 on ‘current-gen’ consoles and $40 on ‘next-gen’ consoles.
