Depends on how well the game sells, if it sells a million copies he's a strange millionaire who values his privacy.

If it sells poorly, he's just a strange guy with an odd way of living.

Edit : This game looks fucking hilarious , I might buy a copy.

I can't really hate on someone at least trying to be productive

Edit 2: Played the demo on Steam, what a masterpiece. It's a game about wanting to be left the fuck alone. If you like silly stuff like Goat Simulator, you'll enjoy this. I hope he sells millions, and then makes an American spin off.

Everything about this screams I'm trying my best. Even the kickstarter itself is amazing. English is VERY VERY hard to learn, but he still made the video without hiring a professional voice actor or relying on an AI voice.

I'm buying this day one !

Got bit annoyed strucken by the realization it's mostly just an ad for a game. But it does look like a decent time waster goof ball. Stay strong, Japanese weirdos!
I wasn’t making a value statement about whether it’s good or bad to be hikkikomori, just making an observation that he seems to meet the definition of one. Your presuppositions seem to me like hidden state variables which are projected into the future, and thus don’t really have any bearing on my characterization of him in the present.
