There is something I don't get about the title, correct me if I'm wrong but, doesn't DLC stand for downloadable content? "story-based content downloadable content"

That's pretty ridiculous. Extremely infuriating to hear.

What do you mean? The main story writer and heaviest contributor to it's style and atmosphere, is no longer working for them. The best thing to do would be to end the series with this game. It's pretty much Kojima's baby and I don't think they could come up with anything similar or as good.

I would probably change the title simply to "Konami Has No Plans." It would probably be more accurate. lol!
But joke aside, they do have one. It just doesn't involve gaming that much, unless you consider mobile gaming and pachinko machines being part of the gaming world.

apparently one third of the game got cut out because konami wanted it out now, meaning they have more story and crap they could tell, they just dont want to do the expensive work, they want to do petty crap like nickel and dime cosmetic dlc.

If all he said was "I don't have any particular story content to announce, no." then this headline is misleading.

There is a big difference between "We have nothing to announce." and "We are never ever going to do any, no.".

Konami is definitely shooting itself in the foot; they have abandoned a massively amazing reputation and replaced it with a very ugly one! The facts about how they treat their employees and their nonsense making direction is going to make this company a think of the past!

yup, they made a whole new multiplatform graphics engine, fox engine. Its ridiculous not to recoup costs by bringing more content. Its also the best game ive played all year and everyone would love to see more!
