And how much of that budget will go towards hiring famous actors because Hideo Kojima has a lifelong obsession with Western cinema?

I'm still salty about him kicking David Hayter off of Metal Gear Solid after nearly twenty years of him providing one of the most iconic voices in gaming (and reportedly Kojima had wanted to do so much earlier), only to replace him with Keifer Sutherland who provided the blandest, most generic voiceover imaginable.

I wonder if one of the reasons Silent Hills was canceled was because he chose to cast Norman Reedus at the height of his popularity. That can't have been cheap.

I'm a huge Kojima fan, but he's terrible at managing a studio. He needs someone on the team who's able to tell him 'no'.
