Kojima has been talking about how MGS 5: The Phantom Pain will explain all about how Snake will make the transformation to Big Boss and go from being a hero to becoming a villain. “This episode is the story of how Snake became Big Boss,” Kojima said.
“It is important for me to explain to people how this hero became a villain for the whole world. So one has to create a very dramatic story,” he continued.
He also went on to talk about how players that are new to the game will have no trouble following the games story, even with the complexity of the narrative.
“It’s a simple story, a story of revenge. Someone gets hurt, and you will have your revenge,” said Kojima.
It is going to be very interesting to see just how far MGS 5: The Phantom Pain is going to go to show the transition of Snake from being the hero to becoming a villain and if gamers are going to be comfortable in playing Snake as he begins the process of becoming a big boss.
