If Hideo Kojima enjoys anything, it’s being ridiculously enigmatic. He also enjoys Sam Reedus, but that’s beside the point. While most folks are running about getting their last-minute Holiday shopping in order and visiting relatives, the Kojima Productions founder is apparently spending the bulk of his day hanging out at his office working on “the next concept,” whatever that means.

Hideo Kojima recently a series of Tweets earlier this morning revealing that his initial plan for the day was to go see Last Christmas (yes, the one with Emilia Clarke), though he changed his mind because he apparently didn’t like the idea of being “an old man going to the theater” by himself on Christmas Eve. As such, he decided to stay in his office and work on the next big thing, which may be either a horror video game or perhaps a movie of some kind.

Maybe I was too tired I slept over this morning. I wanted to go see Last Christmas 1st thing in the morning but realized today was Christmas Eve. Me as an old man going to the theater by myself on this day? I changed my plan to stay in my office working on my next concept. pic.twitter.com/6dleNPEJmJ

There’s plenty to unpack in the above photo (no, not the one with Emilia Clarke), though based on all the spooky reading material – including Shatner – chances are his next concept is the one he’s been talking about recently that will require him to awaken his horror soul. The important thing to note here is that Hideo Kojima is hard at work while we’re off exchanging fruit cakes, and honestly? He probably has the better end of the deal.
