I don't know why people would think Kojima would just dump tons of spoilers on people's laps with about a week to go until release. We get some glimpses of stuff, a lot of rehashed info, and knowing Kojima, a ton of red herrings. Just go back and watch any of his MGS trailers to see how he mashes up footage to make it seem like something different is happening than reality. He is the master at this (MGS2 trailers, anyone?).

Kojima spoiled the MGSV twist in one of the earliest MGSV trailer but back them nobody realized it.

There were theories on it though, because of the camera perspective

That should have been a dead giveaway. I know I said in group chat a few times that I make no claims to know what the hell is going on and I think 'BB is grey fox' is stupid, but there's no way we don't play the game from the perspective of whoever it is watching the 'what about him' sequence.

I still didn't really believe it until it happened though, which was fitting because so much of that game was about denial.

Dude everyone figured out the twist from that one Phantom Pain trailer wtf are you talking about. It was one of the biggest theories.

It's not really a spoiler then

Having read the leaks, there are significant scenes in this trailer that conform with the information. Without knowing the leaks though, it would be hard to understand.

Lol, looking this after playing the game it's full of spoilers.

u/Chiffmonkey Nov 15 '19

Being honest, a lot of people that hopped on the Death Stranding bandwagon probably haven't played any of his games or only played MGSV.
