Metal Gear Solid 1984 collection is not a game, it is a clothing line. News of this update came late as gamers already interpreted Konami's tweet that the 1984 collection is a game of some sorts. Gamers are asking: "What is happening at Konami? Is it having an identity crisis?"
Konami revealed through IGN that the Metal Gear Solid 1984 collection previously announced was in fact, a clothing line. Cosplayers will surely find it an amazing thing for Konami to do, while gamers continue their sighs over the company, firstly after allowing Kojima to leave, eradicating PT, having a Silent Hills "abortion." and now this. The sudden letdown won't go well for the company as fans are already dismayed by Konami's actions during the recent months, which are both surprising and disappointing.
The new Konami Metal Gear Solid 1984 clothing line is said to feature designs from the 80s, though no information was released as to whether clothes from the game will also be available. According to IGN, the new clothing line will also feature shoes and accessories for men and women. .However, if Konami will not add game costumes, cosplayers who are all rooting for this, will surely be dismayed as well. Konami has now two, demanding mistresses to satisfy.
The legendary company is super secretive about their clothing line and practically with everything that happened these past months, which confuses fans everywhere. As a result, people who are rooting for the company are now alone in the dark as they are left behind to figure out the just cause why Konami is acting up the way they do today.
Twitter responses over Konami's clothing line announcement both contain lukewarm praises, sarcastic remarks and spicy condiments of tangy F-words to brighten up the day. In the end, gamers got mixed signals over the announcement and they paid the price, the utter dismay that Metal Gear Solid 1984 is not a game collection but a line of things people cover themselves with to hide the shame of being exposed to the world.
