Hideo Kojima

A fan idea. Obviously won't go anywhere, but I would like to know what people think. Konami has two ways to redeem itself, and it won't choose either. Well, I propose a third.

Obviously, we're missing out on a lot, due to the unfinished ending to The Phantom Pain, but I think that it's a golden opportunity to expand upon both missing content and to finally conclude the Metal Gear saga.

First off, no pay to win. The coin system in The Phantom Pain is a bit tedious, but manageable, if quite time consuming. Anything more than this is actually insulting.

It needs to have a single player story, completely separate from any cooperative online play. The story should last at least 48-72 hours of continuous combined play. If Venom Snake is the main character once more, Kiefer Sutherland must be the English voice actor, for continuity. If Naked Snake (Big Boss) is, then get David Hayter.

DLC is fine, as long as they don't offer an unfair advantage or seek only expand the main story. The main story must be fully available upon purchase.

Yes, purchase. This game could be sold for a large amount of money per copy. About €50-€70 in Europe. It should contain at least some form of add on content included with physical copies for an online mode, to entice players to play. It would mean a bit more money coming in, and as we all know, Konami loves money.

If Hideo Kojima isn't an option for development, seek aid from any former or current developers who played a large part in previous titles.

Improve upon the shortcomings of The Phantom Pain, and expand upon it. Also take some of the fan's thoughts and opinions into consideration.

AND NO ZOMBIES.

As I stated, it's a fan proposal. I doubt any Konami executives are going to take any such proposals into consideration. But I think that some people won't be happy until the saga can receive a true, fitting ending. One that explains everything.

Here is the concept.

One of the Philosophers was Hideo Kojima (yes I know that the Philosophers were American, Russian, and Chinese; but he could be a trusted party).

He had an American wife who was just a civilian and a closely guarded secret.

She got pregnant and he fears that his Son might be endangered due to the literal Legacy of the Philosophers.

Thankfully, he is a geneticist.

He performs Gene-Therapy on the infant fetus to ensure that his son looks more American than Asian, to make it seem as if the boy and Hideo have NO relations and cannot be used as a bargaining chip/put in danger by any who would pursue The Philosophers Legacy.

To further ensure the boy's safety in the event that their blood ties are found, he makes it so the boy is perfect in mental capacity and physical acuity, allowing him to be smart and if threatened; can fend for himself if need be.

Jack is the result, and he becomes the student of The Boss : Naked Snake.

This would explain why Hideo Kojima appears in Peace Walker, Ground Zeroes, and The Phantom Pain and WHY without context, Big Boss recognizes him in Peace Walker without question. And why he doesn't cameo in other titles because he either doesn't know of the existence of David, Eli, and George. Or that he merely passed away as age caught up with him.

This theory doesn't say that Big Boss knows that Kojima is his father, just that Kojima was probably influential in his life as a figure or role model.

Whaddya think? Convoluted enough that it could be considered Canon?
