    In addition, it's classy game in the making. Fun for most people who enjoy a host of different gameplay mechanics: Riding motorbikes, driving trucks, zip-lining through a mountain or river, exploration, inventory management, and last but not least the masterful blend between gameplay and movie-like cinematics. Story-wise, it's something completely new and extraordinary. Give it a try~

The gameplay in the game might be boring and not for any type of players. Its repetitive, its boring, yes. The main thing - to show how lonely was Sam before that main mission to connect America. But OMG that final episodes (episodes 10-14), final narrative and final twists. It was extremely touching, emotional, shocking and unbelievable ! Its make all sense after finishing this journey. 10/10 from me, and one of the best experience of all time for me. Excellent characters, their stories, their actors play. Insane music (cmon guys, who not touched by BB's theme?). Perfect graphics. What else you need? C'mon - in driving simulators you driving circle maps for 1000 times and no one say its boring bla-bla. In Counter-Strike/BF/Overwatch you play same maps for 1000 hours. Here you need some near 15-20 hours for story gameplay and people got crazy as #$% for some reason Expand

    This is inimitably well combined with each other when we're talking about game mechanics and gameplay in general, utterly well made when we're talking about animations and graphic, and oh damn... infinitely spectacular and deafening when we're talking about the story and the lore.

    In a nutshell - Breathtaking!

    [i][b]This game isn't about eternally running guy with a tremendous backpack, but about torn world full of people obsessed with their own fears, about adventure that leads through all types of trials. This game is about life reaching out to the sky, about what does it mean to have connections between people, how we could rise and how we could fall.

    You must play this through and out, there's no way you don't.

    Facinating and moving storytelling based game with new style of gameplay. With out a doubt, kojima knows how to design and wtrite a stroty suitable for new modle game.
    I totally understand if people don't get into the the form that the game represents. But it was satisfying and full of emotions for me at least.

    As is usual with Kojima's games, especially late ones, great worldbuilding and totally unique atmosphere go hand in hand with 3rd grade student tier writing (mainly dialogues). If you can suffer through those there's an interesting story to follow, complete with expected Kojima-style plot twists and turns.

    Visually the game is very appealing. Thumbs Up button for game's uncompromising creative vision alone.

    I really enjoyed this game. It is low on action (you get to shoot some folks later in the game, but not a lot), but I have to say that I actually enjoyed "delivering packages".

I liked the optimization puzzle of figuring out how to deliver things efficiently, and if you use the tools provided (e.g. the lift lines), you can massively shortcut huge portions of what would be long slow slogs (especially through the snow). I think I enjoy Fallout games for a similar reason, the adventure of looking over the next hill and seeing what is there.

    The story is also cool. Really wacky, and it gets twisted at the end, but it's good.

    It has a LOT of video segments, so it is a little bit of a cross between a movie and a video game. Bring popcorn. Especially at the end. When you think the game is over ... just make some popcorn ... it isn't. :)

    I have never played a Kojima game before ,but i got interested in DS (Death Stranding) after seeing the trailers (which i really loved ,for the visuals ,the music ,but especially for the atmosphere they had going in) ....after the game came out and the reviews started popping out ,i got somewhat skeptical (especially seeing the hate the game got) ,but i still was intersted and wanted to try the game (more so knowing that the creator himself said that the game wont please everyone)

    So i played the game and ...........i loved it from the first moments to the last ones (where i nearly tear up) ,the cinematics were masterfully done ,the character acting superb ,the music GODLY as itreally adds to the atmosphere and makes things 10 times better (i downloaded all three albums from the game after playing it) ,and the graphics have been one of the most stunning i have seen in a while ,now for the story : it starts out really confusing and cryptic ,but believe me when i say everything makes sense in the end (with a lot of plot twists and big reveals) ,the characters all had very well written backstories and the actor's performances were phenomenal (especially Cliff's and Die Hard Man's actors respectively) ,plus the messages the game convey really touched me on a deep level Lets talk about the gameplay (which most people called boring and not fun) while it may have started a little simple ,it gets waay more varied as you progress ,for example you get new ways of transporting the cargo ,new equipment ,new weapons etc (these arent just some cosmetic level additions ,as they make the gameplay very diverse and give you more choices) ,and even though the open world isn't that rich with NPCs ,there's a lot to interact with: from the little interactions with your BB ,the different gameplay elements ,the Async gameplay mechanics ,building roads and structures ,fighting the mules ,the terrorists and the BTs ,trying to optimize your load and take the best route possible ,the different activities you can do in your private room ,the different references and Easter eggs Kojima threw in ,and i can still go on and on and would only scratch the surface ... Im super glad that this game got made ,in a world full of repetitive shooter looters and battle royale games ,DS is a game like no other where you got to experience the gameplay bit by bit ,get to really explore the world as its meant to be ,and most importantly each trip i took felt like a real one (i got really happy when i arrived at my destination ,really frustrated when i lost my cargo ,really immersed and peaceful when i walked and some amazing music kicked in) ....so yeaah i need to stop now otherwise i would write 10 pages and still wont say everything x) ....but believe me this Game is a masterpiece ,Kojima san in a genius and everyone who really loves to have a unique experience ,and has a real grasp of what art is ,needs to play this game ...

Death Stranding isVery good game. It will always remain in my heart. I have never regretted that I passed the game first on PS4, and now on PC. Many thanks to 505 Games for the optimization. As for the game itself... I must say at once, it is not for everyone. Someone will find it difficult to understand the intricacies of the plot, someone will find the gameplay dull and uninteresting. Death Stranding is the kind of game that it is desirable to pass alone, alone with your thoughts. The plot of the game may seem boring, but only at the beginning. With each chapter, you start to empathize with the heroes of the game more and more. i admit honestly, during the first passage, over the final of the game roared like a **** so he was gorgeous and touching. the stories of many characters make you think about some things and maybe rethink them. death stranding is a game that you need to go through wrapped in a warm blanket, drinking hot tea or mulled wine and just relax and enjoy the story and atmosphere of the game. A well-chosen soundtrack will help you in this. There are certainly disadvantages to the game, but I think you've read about them in other reviews. I would recommend this game to those who do not want to strain and sweat, passing this or that location, those who know how to empathize with the game characters and imbued with their stories, those who love long cutscenes (which by the way are smartly shot). If you belong to this group of players, then feel free to buy the game, you will not regret it. but if you want to quickly run through the story or wait for epic battles and shootouts - this game is not for you. Don't waste your money so you won't be disappointed. Good luck couriers, and may Saint BB help you. Expand

    One of the best games I've ever played, right up there with Nier Automata; the game is certainly not everyone's cup of tea, I even nearly dropped the game out of frustration at the start, but it's objectively an incredible game and I'm glad I stuck around.

    PERSONAL OPINION
    This is my favorite game in a long long long time. I'm achievement hunting after completing the main story-line. And you know, I really do like to just walk around and complete deliveries.
    People talk about this game as a walking simulator, but the gameplay loop is quite fun and addictive: 1. Unlock zone 2. Optimize route 3. Unlock new equipment 4. Re-optimize

    All while helping others do the same

    The only jank here are the vehicles, which are quite fun even with some quirks. The game is EXTREMELY polished and beautiful to behold! Couldn't recommend more.

The music will grip you and bring about emotions you haven't felt in a game since you were a child and the story will have you wishing it had never ended. This is easily one of my all time favorite games. I will cherish the time i spent in Death Stranding and I hope Kojima decides to continue this story. Thank you sir.

This keeps happening throughout the game, with new tools, items, vehicles, etc. given to you at just the right moment so as to never become old.
    Having said that, if you're looking for Call of Duty, this isn't it. This game is at times action-packed and fast-pasted, at times, sneaky and stealthy, but mostly it's tranquil and zen.
    If you don't need violence and action to have fun, and can enjoy simple things such as cargo management, delivery route management, keeping your battery powered up, and carefully traversing terrain so as to deliver your goods in the best shape you can, then I'd recommend this game.
    I also love how "multi-player" is integrated. You never see another player, instead you pickup and deliver the cargo they lose on their own journey, utilize the structures they built, and make use of the vehicles and items they leave behind.
    Last but not least, the story, characters, and writing are all executed masterfully. I've never had a game make me cry as much as Death Stranding. Mostly that release day trailer is what makes the tears roll.
    Truly a joy to play. One of the best games I've played in a long, long time.

    The most impressive game I've ever played in my life. In the last 2 hours, everything becomes clear. Be sure to watch all cutscenes carefully. I wanted to give 9 points because I encountered a very annoying bug in the last 2 hours of the game and so I had to watch the last 2 hours instead of playing.

    Creo que muchos se equivocan a la hora de criticar este "juego", porque justamente no le interesa ser un juego, ni una película, Death Stranding quiere situarse en el medio para que eso no te importe. Es una experiencia que si, quiere divertirte, pero también frustrarte, exigirte mas, sacarte de tu zona de confort y recompensarte a cambio.
    Si bien al principio parece que solo es ir de punto A a punto B, no pasara mucho para que empiecen a aparecer dificultades en el camino, y a medida que avanzas te darán un sin fin de herramientas para poder superarlas, es tanto que el post podría tratarse solo de eso, cerca del final puedes saltar 10 metros, tienes todas las armas del Call of Duty, corta cordones, Exoesqueletos, motos, camiones, etc. Si bien no profundiza mucho en cada aspecto, cumple, pero lo mejor de la jugabilidad sin duda es caminar, el simple hecho de moverte con Sam es lo mejor del juego, y ahí donde mas se nota el verdadero enfoque del mismo.
    A pesar de que mucha gente dice que el juego esta muy vacío, y por eso cuenta con gráficas alucinantes, la verdad es que kojima nos ha dado las herramientas para rellenarlo, carreteras, tirolesas, puentes, generadores, buzones, habitaciones, etc.
    Death Stranding tiene una banda sonora Increíble, de la mejores que he escuchado.
    "Once, There Was an Explosion" tiene una un diseño sonoro y composición alucinantes,
    Secuencias como "Alone We Have No Future" o "The Face of Our New Hope" están increíblemente logradas, "A Final Waltz" es de mi canciones de jefes favoritos, y "BB's Theme" es una obra maestra, es tan fuerte en todos los aspectos que sea ha convertido en mi canción favorita de todos los tiempos, no tengo mas que aplausos para Ludvig Forsell.

    Por diversos motivos nunca había experimentado ningún juego de kojima, una vez le di una oportunidad a Metal Gear V, pero era mucha acción, y no entendía nada de lo que ocurría, simplemente lo deje pensando que Kojima no era para mi, pero luego de Death Stranding estaré esperando con ansias sus próximos Titulos, es un director con un estilo único, tanto así que en 20 años jugando nunca había probado algo igual.

    The strength of this game is how immersive it is. As soon as I started playing, hundreds of questions started getting in my head and the longer I played the more questions got answered.

    TL DR;
    Don't buy if you are going to skip every cutscene and dialogue or don't care about anything about the story.
    BUT if you are going to let the game tell you its story, you are going to have a great time!

Far from it: the universe created by the director is extremely intriguing, believable and very well structured. The story is worthy of an extremely high-quality series or film (I'd love to see one with the actors that make up this beautiful work as well). The beginning of the game is simply breathtaking and leaves you motivated to understand more about that universe. The characters are extremely charismatic, the content of documents found during gameplay, incoming emails and everything else that make up the game's lore are well-formulated, and Kojima's "likes" system and online features work surprisingly well. And what about the soundtrack? Simply stupendous!!! The way in which the songs are inserted in key moments of the game, when entering new biomes/landscapes, is exquisite, and emotional. By the way, the story as a whole is very emotional. All the facts mentioned above only intensify with the moment the world is/has been going through, with the pandemic of the new COVID-19 coronavirus, for example. The way game elements merged with reality is/was an amazing coincidence. The distance from humanity, the broken bonds, many deaths, the role of deliverymen... all of this converges in an unbelievable harmony and makes you reflective. I'm sure players who lost someone, or even struggled in the middle of the pandemic, must have been thrilled, a lot, throughout the long Sam Bridges odyssey. Speaking of journey, the game is long and has a lot of content to explore. Zeroing the main story and some side quests, I reached the 55 hour mark. And for those who love achievements or challenges, you can go well beyond that. I'm sure the biggest factor pushing some players away from the game is the cadence with which the story unfolds. It starts off very well, however, for the most part the story evolves rather slowly at the beginning and only regains dynamism towards the middle/end of the game. However, I consider this "wait" necessary, which makes it worthwhile in the end. Sam's efforts demonstrate how difficult the time humanity was going through in that universe is and how much effort it takes to unite everyone. The difficulty, the wait, the difficult deliveries, it's not just "stuffing up sausage": it's a narrative resource, a gameplay tool. Finally, the plot twist's are very good and the ending is surprising. The price charged for the game is more than fair, it is a masterpiece, made with care and with a memorable story and characters. The promotional price for this game is a bargain. Honorable mentions for the exquisite optimization performed, which makes the game run very well even on a humble RX570 4gb, and the compatibility on 21:9 monitors that only enhances the experience.

    The story gripped me from start to finish. It's hard to comprehend how any individual could come up with this game's setting and scenarios it puts you through, how the world and it's story unravels around you. While there are some moments that I felt the writing could've been improved that's about the extent of my complaints with the game.

Teraz, dwa lata później, mając za sobą najgłośniejsze i najlepsze gry odpaliłem DS raz jeszcze. Po drodze gdzieś jeszcze na promce kupiłem upgrade do Directors Cut’a. I tak oto piękny świat Hideo Kojimy wciągnął mnie na maksa. Śmiem twierdzić, że DS jest pozycją dla weteranów, a nie niedzielnych graczy. Takich, którzy mają obcykana co się w RPGach dzieje i chcą zostać zaskoczeni. Cieszy mnie fakt, że na horyzoncie ukazuje się po mału sequel, smuci, że zapewne znów będzie długi czas jedynie na platformie Sony. Wiem jednak, że warto czekać, bo Kojima wie co robi. Expand

    It is not only a different game but also different experience. People complaining about gameplay are players that play an hour and say its boring. 100/95

    Hideo Kojima as its finest, great plot, great world building, amazing soundtrack, everything about this game is great, except, its "boring" gameplay some player sick about, i think this game is segmented in that aspect, if you're not hooked into the game, it will become labor at matter of time, and even if you like to be literal delivery man, u will face hours of cutscene that u must payHideo Kojima as its finest, great plot, great world building, amazing soundtrack, everything about this game is great, except, its "boring" gameplay some player sick about, i think this game is segmented in that aspect, if you're not hooked into the game, it will become labor at matter of time, and even if you like to be literal delivery man, u will face hours of cutscene that u must pay attention at because it's complex story, if u missed some, u missed whole detail Expand

    Truly a masterpiece. I've spent nearly 50h in a month recently. Delivering is so interesting and the scenes as well as the plot is awesome.

    I approached Death Stranding twice. I spent a couple of hours with the PS4 edition and was fascinated with it. I kinda wish I stopped at that and let the game remain a mystery to me rather than complete it later on PC and be disappointed. There are moments when Death Stranding eludes the traditional 1-10 rating system. There are moments when it sets new standards and becomes a truly special experience. But those are just moments scattered throughout tedious gameplay. Still, it is in my opinion one of those games you simply need to play. [10/2020, p.44]

    Death Stranding is asking you to find variety in a daily rut, cooperation possibilities for a character who has fear of contact, scientific explanations in clear-cut mysticism. Today, you’re annoyed that the story doesn’t move forward, and you have to trek into the same ghost-infested area as before, but tomorrow you’ll gladly spend a few hours hauling resources for a new highway and feeling good about it. This source of joy is very weird and defies explanation.

    Death Stranding on PC is the best way to experience this journey. Game is much more than a walking Sim, it mixes and matches a ton of brilliant new ideas and game mechanics. It is bursting with atmosphere, and the overall quality of the production and presentation is fantastic. Other than minor issues and some non-consistent storytelling, Death Stranding shows us that boundaries can be moved in the today gaming world.
