“I took some shots at my companion Leo, and he went "Dingo, I'm your ally!" (laughs)”
Kojima recalled that while playing toward the end of Anubis he was thrown into a chaotic battle against BAHRAM, with mechas fighting everywhere, and did not know what he was supposed to do; everyone was yelling for help and he could not make sense of it, to the point that he wondered whether it was a kuso game. He said he accidentally shot his companion Leo, who responded that he was Dingo’s ally. Kojima added that the sequence still felt new and fresh, with an immediate sense of danger his generation of games had never shown.
“But when I was dropped in there I didn't know what I was supposed to do. Everyone was yelling "help me!" but I didn't know what was going on. In my generation of gaming, you would never have seen something like this. It felt new and fresh though.”
