In a recent episode of Hideo Kojima's podcast KOJI10, the Metal Gear and Death Stranding creator discussed some of the game ideas he's had relating to time. These should be taken with a pinch of salt, because Kojima's always loved spieling about how certain concepts would work in videogames, but at least one was almost part of Death Stranding 2: On the Beach (both spotted and translated by IGN).Time-based mechanics...
