Overview
- In a Ghost in the Shell 30th‑anniversary interview highlighted by IGN Japan, the director called Fallout 4 his favorite game and estimated more than 10,000 hours across Steam and earlier PlayStation play.
- He outlined self-imposed rules: skip the main quest, avoid all factions and settlement building, and travel only with Dogmeat.
- He said the VATS system lets less twitch‑reliant players succeed, which he credits for the game’s long-term pull.
- He described aggressively targeting the Brotherhood of Steel, even stockpiling their empty power armor suits at his Red Rocket base.
- Coverage from Dexerto and PC Gamer notes the playtime total is self-reported across platforms rather than verified by platform data.
