Kojima gets some flack for plastering his name everywhere, but not a lot of credit for also putting the names of almost everyone he works with front and center as well-UNR

He's one of the few game/film directors out there who will put the names/songs of the music he uses on-screen, and bill each individual actor for all his characters.

How many of us would know David Hayter, Stefanie Joosten, Low Roar, Silent Poets, Yoji Shinkawa, etc. if Kojima hadn't featured their names so prominently? Even Troy Baker has talked about how thankful he was to Kojima for giving him marquee billing alongside such huge names as Norman Reedus and Mads Mikkelsen.

The games industry used to be notorious for not really crediting its directors/producers in the same way films do, and Kojima was one of the first people to break this along with some others like Sid Meier.
