Hideo Kojima says that when he parted ways with Konami, he was "opposed" by peers, colleagues, and relatives" who told him that going independent would "never work".
In a statement shared to X/Twitter overnight, Kojima also reflected on why he continues to make games, saying that one of the reasons he became an independent developer was because creating games "is living" and "no longer a job".
"The reason why I am independent and advocate a life-long career is because for me, 'creating things' is no longer a job," Kojima said in the lengthy tweet.
