To be fair, we only got the Fox Engine because he wanted to push the boundaries in attempting to achieve raytrace-equivalent light casting without the costs, and by gosh he managed to find engineers to pull it off. The only engine that outdoes it is the Red Engine, which is extremely impressive from a performance to scaling perspective.

For all his faults, had Konami not been nigger-tier in their intellectual industry foresight they could have been a leading publisher built off the back of Kojima Productions and the Fox Engine. Could you imagine how much money they could have made licencing that engine? Or the kind of games we could have had?

Reminds me of EA completely mishandling the Frostbite, or recently CDPR and the Red Engine. Easy money left sitting on the table.
