Fa cos with its own troubles sotis—but Job didn't mind those at all.
He had once been completely unknown, barely noticed by anyone. Then, through hard work, he finally gained recognition—only to plumt back into obscurity after an unfortunate accident. Now that he'd climbed his way back up, reaching a peak he'd never even imagined before, he felt incredibly fulfilled.
But with that success ca caution. Fa like this was hard-won—he had no intention of letting it slip away again.
That's why he took every request seriously. He wouldn't agree to anything lightly.
Still, true talent always finds a way to shine, especially at Gastar Electronic Entertainnt.
Job didn't beco famous just because he looked like Snake. If he hadn't had the acting chops to match, simply resembling the version in Takayuki's mory wouldn't have been enough to win him the role.
Now, thanks to the potential he'd shown, video gas had started to beco a legitimate second choice for many actors.
You didn't need to star in a movie or drama anymore. You could build your career inside the world of gas.
Job didn't give Ben Carter a definitive answer—but he did offer solid advice.

After all, the ga industry was booming. There was no shortage of opportunities for actors. Just because Gastar might not be the right fit didn't an other ga studios wouldn't be interested. Sowhere, there was always a role that fit.
And it wasn't just actors. Anyone working in culture or the arts had the chance to find their place in gas.
Writers, illustrators, composers—they all had opportunities to collaborate with ga developnt teams.
Studios like Surei Electronics, Roppongi Interactive, Legend Studio, Titan Gas and more were all rising rapidly. As long as you had the drive, it wasn't too hard to carve out a space for yourself in the world of gas.
But now, back to Gastar itself.
The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild was one of the headline titles of this console generation.
With its already strong fanbase, Zelda had beco the second-best-selling title on the platform.
The premise was familiar: rescue the princess. But this ti, it ca with a vast open world—and absolute freedom.
No one forced you to do anything. You could go anywhere, try anything. The ga world felt like it held infinite possibilities.
Even Takayuki, who developed the ga, began to wonder if he might have raised the bar too high for open-world gas right from the start. That alone showed just how highly he regarded the ga within the genre.
And for players—or even for non-gars who were just discovering the dium—Breath of the Wild was their first taste of what video gas could really be.
One such person was Davidson, a warehouse manager with a relatively relaxed job. Lately, he'd discovered a new hobby: video gas.
His favorites were history-based titles.
His entry into gaming had been purely accidental. One day, he found himself playing a casual mobile ga called Candy Crush on his phone.
Even now, he still played a couple of rounds from ti to ti—it seed like the ga had no end.
Back then, he was hooked.
Every day, he was obsessed with beating one more level, climbing the leaderboard, surpassing his Facebook friends. That was his world.
Then ca a ga called Assassin's Creed.
It was a textbook example of industrialized, open-world ga design. In it, he played a mber of the Assassin Brotherhood during the Crusades, locked in a shadow war with the Templars.
He wasn't particularly drawn to the story.
What fascinated him was the fresh perspective on history the ga provided.
In the past, if he wanted to learn more about a historical period, he'd turn to docuntaries, renowned history books, or historical dramas.
But honestly, none of them felt as imrsive as video gas.
He had read a lot about the Crusades and even visited historical sites across Europe. But most of those places were now in ruins, with only a few preserved landmarks—and many were off-limits to public exploration.
You couldn't examine their full structure from all angles.
Gas gave him sothing new: a different lens on history.
And not just a new perspective—an interactive one. He could walk through ancient cities, take in the daily lives of dieval people.
Sure, a lot of it was superficial. NPCs were just background figures, moving along scripted paths.
But he didn't mind.
Eventually, his love for gas deepened. He discovered the Civilization series—a beloved franchise often described by fans as dangerously addictive. The kind of ga where you blink and it's suddenly morning.
Davidson had the sa experience. When he got hooked on Civilization, his sleep schedule flipped. Even his work began to suffer.
He eventually got himself back on track and beca more balanced.
Once he'd finished with Civilization, he expanded beyond just history gas.
Titanfall beca a new favorite—he never imagined a fictional sci-fi ga could move him like that.
Need for Speed beca his go-to for quick adrenaline hits—blazing through neon-lit city streets at night was incredibly satisfying.
He'd occasionally play soccer gas with a friend, who was a hardcore football fan. Over ti, Davidson beca a die-hard soccer gar too.
He'd gone from disinterested non-gar to casual player, then to interdiate, and now... he felt he could proudly call himself a hardcore gar.
He'd played close to 100 different gas—each a standout in its genre.
And for years, Assassin's Creed held the crown as his favorite open-world experience—it was his first true "wow" mont in gaming.
But as of today, Davidson felt that title might need to be passed on...
To The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild.
