Renowned video game creator **Hideo Kojima ** has a level of name recognition not too common in game development. Most games are thought of as creations of the studio that worked on them, but more often than not, titles like Metal Gear Solid and Death Stranding are distinctly products of Kojima - though certainly also products of his talented teams. He tends to hold a similar stature as a film director, which correlates to Kojima's ambition of creating movies at his studio, and also translates into a tendency to appear in his own works in cameo ro
Power amongst gangs in Night City's districts doesn't change or shift, should a gang be heavily affected by a questline or decision made by players. In " The Pickup " quest, players have the option to free the trapped former Maelstrom leader, Brick. Once he's freed, Brick offers V a favor, but players never see that favor from repaid, and V’s relationship with Maelstrom doesn't change. Maelstrom will still attack the player in the streets, despite V saving them from being zeroed. On the other hand, siding with Militech and Meredith Stout by supposedly getting rid of Maelstrom won’t affect the gang’s status in Watson. No gang will try to claim the district as its own, and Maelstrom members will continue to roam the a
