“When I first got into this industry, I first worked on PC games. It took quite a long time before I got acquainted with the console hardware. Therefore, I still have very warm feelings for the PC. It is on the PC that games are ultimately created. “, – says Hideo Kojima.

Separately, the game designer noted the features of porting Death stranding on the PCHideo Kojima admitted that his studio Kojima Productions did not want to give the adaptation of the game for personal computers to third-party specialists and decided to independently deal with the port

“There is a significant segment of the audience that prefers to play on the PC, so we took care of including in [Death Stranding] various features that such users might like.

As for the difficulties that we encountered when porting, here we can note a fairly wide coverage of the hardware available on the market. There is a noticeable difference between the most productive and weakest machines. The question of the main optimization priorities in this case made us sweat.

Another interesting point is related to mouse control. I myself do not play very well with the mouse, but the PC version [Death Stranding] had to support such a control system, even if it was somewhat difficult to implement. But such subtleties were ultimately implemented by our specialists. I still prefer to play with a gamepad.

Separately, it is also worth noting that PC-players usually express their opinions about games very loudly and do not hesitate, it is rather difficult to meet their needs. However, I am glad that we were not afraid to get to work. And as a result, everyone seems to be happy, “concludes Hideo Kojima.
