Rare instance of Shinji Mikami talking about the development of GOD HAND. Taken from Shinji Mikami, Part 2: An Eclectic Journey - Archipel Caravan • Shinji Mikami, Part 2:...
-Really wants to make cool game. -Only has a small team. -Rewrites the script halfway through to make it funny. -Understands it won't sell well. -Makes God Hand anyway just because he wants to. -Leaves. There will never be another Shinji Mikami. What a giga chad game developer.
It's not good for the company, if you think about it. And yes back then it didn't sell well. But for whatever reason people seems to interested in this game. Just like cars that didn't sell well back then now sell in auction for double or triple the price for example Lexus LFA.
@@superlight1999 there's some kind of fascination behind the concept of genuine creativity. It may have not appealed to the masses, but it surely had great value in terms of game design autorship. Basically it failed to sell, not in being a gem of a game.
Shinji Mikami made Resident evil 1, Then he let kamiya ( one of designer in RE1)made Re2. After that, Kamiya made Devil may cry1, Okami,Bayonetta........ Shinji Mikami made Dino Crisis 1, Then he let Shu Takumi ( one of designer in Dino Crisis 1) made Dino Crisis 2,.After that, Shu Takumi made Ace Attorney,Ghost Trick Shinji Mikami made Evil within 1, Then he let John Johanas( one of designer in evil within 1) made evil within 2，After that, John Johanas made Hi-Fi Rush Shinji Direct: Resident Evil ,Re 1 Remake , Dino Crisis 1, PN03, Resident Evil4 , God hand , Vanquish and Evil within 1,True legend!
This man really just decided to make the best game of all time knowing it wouldn't be a sucess, proceeded to create the game anyway and left the company after its release and failure. This is the meaning of freedom. Respect for the ultimate chad.
I have long considered GOD HAND my single favorite video game of all time and, having never seen this interview, I now feel particularly driven to one day thank him in person for this...
As someone who has inspired and helped Suda51 grow into the creator he is today (with Suda51 calling him one of the coolest bosses ever), I will be forever grateful to this man. God Hand is also one of my favorite games of all time, too.
Wish he could call up his old friends, and start working on God Hand 2 as another passion project of his. Would be the only game I would ever kickstart. It's really tragic how shit and bland this whole industry has become in the last century.
Wow...I had no idea that it had such a dynamic history, especially for him. I feel bad that he feels bad about making a game for himself, even though most of us know that's how you end up with a truly great game -- when a dev does what they want to do. It becomes true art. I think this man is an inspiration to game developers everywhere. Thanks for sharing this, Mike.
The Japanese gaming industry and anime industry never let any of there developers or directors have freedom to make what they want to make in a video game based off how the developer or director wants it to be for themselves and not caring what other people will say about it shinji kamiya knew that many of his colleagues and other people in the Japanese gaming industry would look down on him if he made this game but he didn’t care he did it for the people buying the video games and did it because he thought it was a great idea and a great game from his perspective that is why hideo kojima who is the creator and director of all the metal gear games that came out since 1987 to 2015 was fired because Konami games a group of Japanese people in the gaming industry did not let him make games the way he wanted to now he has his on gaming company and works for Sony and now he is making lots of money and sales from death stranding and I know konami is very angry about that the Japanese business companies and anime companies and video game industries try to control what they want there workers to make but some of them want to do there own thing and they won’t let them
God Hand is the best game ever made for me. When people are talking about how hard souls game are, I laugh at them and look back on my hard mode kick me god hand challenge days. Now that is what REAL difficulty is like.
@@JohnDillinger12 you have got to be joking. GOW 2018 is just a Sony slop exclusive. It's not even the best entry in the GOW series lol. If that is your example then your opinion can be discarded.
I wish he could somehow know that he created a game that is the favourite game of a lot of people around the globe. I'm from argentina and i love this game
As a Martial Artist, its incredible the amount of detail there is in every technique, you cant find this in any other game. And this is only one of the many great things this game has...
For the life of me I will never understand how this game didn't sell more than it did. It's the GREATEST beat 'em up of it's genre and nothing comes close. Over a hundred different ways to engage in combat and you're in charge of how you fight... what's not to love? We don't even get this much content from a game in 2024! The story isn't long winded you're literally just throwing hands and feet with a bad azz main character. Plus the biggest appeal to me is the difficulty, the payoff you get after mastering this game makes you feel like nothing else can phase you. I genuinely don't know what more could've been done to appeal to the masses maybe it was just ahead of it's time. Shinji Mikami created a masterpiece that's all I'll say. Re-release it today and I guarantee you people would lose their minds.
I was always curious on what his thoughts were and the process during God hand. I especially wonder today what he thinks of its growth as a cult classic. Thank you for uploading :)
There's one thing that's puzzling me: I distinctly remember old magazine previews of the game (mostly Official Playstation 2 Magazine UK, which is distinct from the US version) that framed the game as being easy, intentionally easy, from a position of mostly being played for laughs. I mean, enemies dying in a couple of strong punches. So imagine my surprise when I finally *did* play God Hand years later and it was nothing like that. But in the years since, I've *never* come across any information that tracks with that story, but I swear I'm not misremembering it. This interview kind of hops between the two; on the one hand, the notion of Mikami making something ultimately 'for him' and not driven by the market does accomodate an earlier playable build of God Hand that was easy, but the notion of it being 'his' and especially targeted at Dai makes it sound like it was hard from the outset and Capcom just wanted to screw with print media at the time. Unless, of course, the game started easy but was revised through Dai to become the niche tough-but-fair 3D brawler that it was released as.
What could be the case, God Hand was another of Capcom's releases that was made harder in the western release, specifically Japan's "Normal" mode was renamed "Easy" and Japan's "Hard" mode was renamed "Normal" (similar to the original western release of DMC3). Maybe OPS2M UK played an earlier build set to "easy" without being told what difficulty level they played, or possibly the Japanese version is easier even if you play on the same difficulty and those changes hadn't been made to the preview they played? That's a guess mind you
This is *completely fucked up* . The fact that an industry legend needs to prove himself to his company in terms of sales for projects he doesn't really feel too happy about making to at least once be able to do that which he genuinely *wants to make* , even though he knows full well it will not sell, is absolutely and completely fucked up. This guy came into the industry to make games he would like to play ! That is LITERALLY the best kind of developer in the world !!!
Ojalá pudiera agradecerle en persona por haber creado mi juego favorito, a día de hoy para mi no hay ningún juego que se le compare. GOD HAND es una obra maestra.
We need the remake now. Come back to this, Shinji Mikami. Come back to that one game you knew would sell terribly but proceeded on releasing anyway. Return now, knowing a lot more people actually want it.
It's not like it's a perfect game by any means it takes a while to get a handle for it but it pays off big time. Very fun and satisfying game with lots of good humor
I still remember how mad I was about that as a kid. At the time it felt like such a bigger deal when these sites made reviews, but now it's almost a good sign if they give a game a low score. It's just funny now cause we know they just simply couldn't beat it, it was that petty lol. IGN about the camera in God Hand: 'One of the major problems with the combat, and God Hand on the whole in fact, is that the camera is stuck directly behind your character and you're unable to freely control it. Where you walk is exactly where it points' IGN about the same camerasystem in God of War: At some of the most tense and heartbreaking moments, the camera never leaves Kratos’ mindstate. You’re forced to sit with him - sometimes in silence, sometimes in anguish as a haunting choir echoes around him, and sometimes in relief - through every second of it. That intimacy makes those emotions all the more real and impactful So when they like the game, the camerasystem is 'intimate'. When they don't like it, it's 'stuck' :D
@@roberteriksen6434 call me a SJW but tbh you can almost feel the American bias… the way journalists defend God of War… the way they defend the DmC reboot…
He knew all along, the actual mad lad knew. He knew it wouldn't sell for shit, but he used company time and money anyway. Not sure how to feel about that.
it is a piece of dark legend because its really amazing game made from director , editor , writer , composer , maker and Shinji Mikami love make from the true love the real heart love and its hurt to see games like this game dying like that so please share this hashtag for every one you know please #bringbackgodhand
that is the first and the only game that give us chance to play with our own technique and style. you can beat the game with high lvl technique or just basic low technique. you can play save by staying in lvl 1-2 or if you want a challenge, you can play in lvl 3/die difficulty.
He is the greatest video game dev for me, not Hideo Kojima, not Shigeru Miyamoto, not Hidetaka Miyazaki, not Hideki Kamiya, not Yu Suzuki etc. For me, Shinji Mikami is a true GAME developer, the gameplay is always polished and awesome in his games. He also adds humor and makes sure that the gamers have a blast from start to end.
One Of the best Game and most underated game off all time First time i play this game i was 12 i think and now im 23 still coming back to play this amazing game...the Bad Rate its cause people didnt know how to handle HARD GAME LIKE DARK SOULS TODAY OR BLOODBORN AND MORE THE PROBLEM WAS 2006 ROUGH GAME FOR THE PEOPLE I GUESS...MEE?I LOVE IT AND IM SO SAD CLOVER STUDIOS CLOSED AND DID MAKE ANY MORE OF THIS AWESOME GAMES....BUT I WILL ALWAYS HAVE GOD HAND IN MY ❤
To think that you enjoy it when you play it, and the guy that made it beats himself up to this day for making something that he truly wanted to do. I imagine myself like an anime character crying in the rain because his master died , screaming: "Sensei!" Gets heartbroken by a bad American Final Fight, to cope he made God Hand.
I was playing UMvC3 in mode Heroes and Heralds, I get a cart with Gene on it, so watching all cards I saw the name of the game where he comes and God Hand was a rare name to a game at least for me, so I decided to search a video on youtube of the game, more later I downloaded on my PS3 so I could play it... Was one of the best experiences on videogames of my life, that game in this years couldn't be maked because it's humor sense, and that weird way to be was the reason of why I love it, by it's gameplay the custom combos, buying moves even for those special power moves, and the difficulty, the story as simple and fun was amazing, couldn't ask for nothing better than that and makes me happy to know that a game like God Hand exists. I would like to see it in modern consoles, not necessary a remake (I'm not into the REMAKING ALL THE GAMES I LOVE people). Best games comes when devs want to make it without trying to satisfy everybody
imagine not being allowed to work on something you want for over 30 fucking years, how utterly sad mikami sounded when he said that despite creating resident evil and making capcom filthy rich he was just another number to them
Most people didn't know this game existed and never tried, if they release god hand 2, i am pretty sure this games unic play style will impress lots of people,
Instead became a capitalist tool,God Hand is a childhood best memory.. also made by someone who want to reach his dream to create a game for his life goal,not for money 😭7

god hand need a remake or atleast a sequel
God Hand is nothing short of a miracle, there will never be another one like it.
Well we can always try :D!

thank u for this Moike, Mikami's literally one of those mans who EXACTLY knows what he does detail by detail - so fascinating

God Hand was love at first sight for me, it was difficult, but in a good way.

I already firmly believed God Hand is one of the greatest games ever made, and this video only doubled my respect for it and Shinji Mikami.
Game devs should be able to make what they want. That's how you get great games and not cash grabs.
For better or worst devs need the cash to make games.

That's true, but do you think every dev is like Mikami? Do you think every dev has the brain and talent like him?

Man he really put all his into it. A labor of love
You’ve have won our hearts man
God Hand is one the best games I’ve ever played and you made my entire childhood man. Love from India ❤
The feels... just the feels.
It kinda shows when something is done for passion instead of mere profit.
This dude is goated. I like his mentality. He's not afraid to take risks.
What a boss, eternal gratitude for making one of my favorite games of all time.
thank you mikami for making such a wonderful game that I am enjoying till this date.
Videogames back in the day were passion projects. These days a lot of games feel so Corporate and bland.
Even back then there was pressure from the publishers for the games to make money but there was more creative freedom within those constraints.
Such a beautiful, wonderful man
We need the remake now. Come back to this, Shinji Mikami. Come back to that one game you knew would sell terribly but proceeded on releasing anyway. Return now, knowing a lot more people actually want it.
It's not like it's a perfect game by any means it takes a while to get a handle for it but it pays off big time. Very fun and satisfying game with lots of good humor

Probably just didn't liked the tank controls and rage quited on the 1st boss.

Was one of the best experiences on videogames of my life, that game in this years couldn't be maked because it's humor sense, and that weird way to be was the reason of why I love it, by it's gameplay the custom combos, buying moves even for those special power moves, and the difficulty, the story as simple and fun was amazing, couldn't ask for nothing better than that and makes me happy to know that a game like God Hand exists. I would like to see it in modern consoles, not necessary a remake (I'm not into the REMAKING ALL THE GAMES I LOVE people). Best games comes when devs want to make it without trying to satisfy everybody
I fucking love god hand, it's so sad it didn't perform well
I , I just cant belive that i will never see another game of that serise
imagine not being allowed to work on something you want for over 30 fucking years, how utterly sad mikami sounded when he said that
despite creating resident evil and making capcom filthy rich he was just another number to them
apparently he wants god hand on steam, can we all bug capcom for this?
God hand game become legend in my country 🫡
Please GodHand 2 release please sir
Most people didn't know this game existed and never tried, if they release god hand 2, i am pretty sure this games unic play style will impress lots of people,
This Game is grieved
One of the my fav game on PS2...and waiting remake or second game ⭐
The game that deserved waaaaaay higher rating than 3/10 .... right IGN ??
Instead became a capitalist tool,God Hand is a childhood best memory.. also made by someone who want to reach his dream to create a game for his life goal,not for money 😭7
godhand may not be my childhood, and it can be infuriating sometimes. but it was fun as hell
gg, shinji it was a performance
man i wish god hand was alive he is alive in our hearts but it's sad that we won't have 2
WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT THIS GAME IS MASTERPIECEEE
We need god hand 2
That why god hand is one of the best game, because he make it the way he like it, this game is absolute amazing, one of the best game i ever play
Yes, it didn't sold well but, the way I see it, masterpieces aren't meant to be appreciated on their time.
Please remake for PS5
Can videogames be art?, well, this interview clearly shows us that the answer is yes.
