Metal Gear Solid Delta Producer Talks About Heaviest Fan Criticism
During the recent livestream dedicated to Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater, producer Noriaki Okamura addressed the biggest criticisms expressed by fans of the series: here’s what they had to say.
During a recent livestream, producer Noriaki Okamura addressed the fan criticism of Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater , which in many cases was particularly harsh due to Konami’s well-known handling of the franchise.
According to Okamura, the remake “has gotten a bigger response than we had hoped, and a lot of people have sent us messages of great support, which we are grateful for. Of course, there have also been fans who have different feelings about the series.
“We understand them, since we are also passionate fans of Metal Gear Solid. So yes, we have received positive feedback but also a lot of criticism and requests from users.”

The tone of the comments
According to the producer, who called the possible return of Hideo Kojima a dream , about 65% of the comments had a neutral tone, 24% expressed positive concepts while 11% were negative comments .
Some examples? “Metal Gear is dead and you killed it” , or “You can’t even make a simple remaster”, or “You’ll probably screw up the next one, if I were you I’d skip it”.
“If that’s how fans feel, I don’t blame them for expressing their honest opinions. And while we can’t respond to every criticism individually, I want to assure everyone that we are listening carefully and taking the feedback we receive very seriously.”
Announced last May, Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater does not yet have an official release date : the hope is that the remake will make its debut by the end of the year.
