Nope! He'd decided against it long before realizing they were related. At first he was just against broadcasting the memories (I think he saw like two people's horrible childhood memories or something lol) but after the first real bad game too that cemented it. He has little to no faith that they will all get out of this alive, and if they do, the Hosts will ship them off somewhere else for profit or do something else with their heads.
So he's kind of bitterly decided that well if I'm gonna be merchandise I'm gonna literally stay an empty shell so I can die without regret or attachment!! He thinks it'll make it easier on him mentally when the time comes when they're taken out (since of course he has no idea death ISN'T permanent here).
Maki remembering him twice is also driving this home, since he also suspects their memories are just bait for them to form attachments and biases and enemies, so nope!! This also falls in line with canon where he's suspicious of their memories being false and leading them on, so doesn't take too much stock in them (though in Imeeji he's pretty sure the memories are legit).
I'll turn that other question on YOU, what's a game you super want to see that you want someone else to run so you can participate in it proper?
