Even when people abroad see me, I'm often asked about a 'Zone of the Enders' sequel.
defines including love people work
I don't like necessarily that people think 'Metal Gear' defines me. I love 'Metal Gear,' don't get me wrong. But as a creator, I really want to work on other projects, including new games.
observe pass people

People are satisfied with making minor upgrades and tweaking things here and there - as long as that's the landscape, it will keep on happening. I don't see a problem necessarily, but at the same time it is nice to see new things come.

I want to show people how there are variations and different interpretations of good and evil.

Another world exists that I must experience. A genus of people exists who I must meet. I must inhale the air they breathe--share their world at all costs.

I won't make games with senseless violence. There has to be a reason for it, such as war.
