“But what I want to say is, it's not a matter of digital or analog. It's about sensibility.”
Kojima dismantled the digital-versus-analog debate: what Peter Jackson struggled to shoot (the zoom that passes through the airplane window) can now be done easily with CG, and conversely, now that we have drones anything that was only possible with CG can be filmed with a real camera. He told Kosinski that in 20 or 30 years it would be possible to shoot a real dogfight with drones for another sequel. His conclusion was that it is not a matter of digital or analog but of sensibility — they are simply different means to express what you want to convey. His games are entirely digital, but a character created from scratch looks false, so they capture and scan real actors. He said it will no longer be digital against analog; these are just elements, and in this era it is up to creators to decide which to use.
“now that we have drones, anything that was only possible with CG can be done with a real camera. […] So in 20 or 30 years, Joe, you can create a Top Gun Maverick sequel, and if you use a drone, you could probably film an actual live-action dogfight. […] I think we're in an era where it's up to the creators to decide what to use.”
