    Dont listen to these idiotic negative reviews about the game. Instead, go read the positive steam reviews by people who've played it for 20+ hours. It's not everyone's cup of tea, but these toxic haters trying to objectively justify why this game is a 0/10 has made me lose hope in humanity

    Dont believe the 0's, Death Stranding is another masterpiece by Hideo Kojima, I enjoy story based cinematic games and this has one of the best. It is a slow game and not for those that expect full on action 100% of the time, this does have some action packed moments but also alot of walking. The gameplay is still good and well worth a 10/10.

Literally, the only challenge is the endless sea of stones scattered throughout the map.

    However, the story or rather the mythology is well developed. The delivery though, the ending that explains everything literally takes 3 hours consisting of 2.5 hours of cutscenes.
    You literally just finished the game and it just won't stop ending...
    At least all questions are answered, no loose endings ala "ah you gotta have to interpret that yourself".

    The concept of the game isn't so bad - deliver packages, reconnect the people.
    The people just aren't interesting, so there's no point in doing side quests to get to know them better or anything.

    So my advise here really is: just do the main objectives, you'll do more deliveries than you wanted to anyway.
    And once you get a vehicle you'll hate the stones even more... the vehicle physics are so bad, you'd think this is some indie dev game. It's laughable.
    Do yourself a favor and, even though it's really hard, don't go near stones in the water - you'll get your vehicle stuck. Definitely.
    And the battery life on vehicles is... just astoundingly bad.

    The physics when carrying packages though makes absolute sense. How you gotta counter the weight by leaning left/right or stopping from falling is perfect.
    Climbing looks like ass though and is unpredictable.

    If they made driving in the least interesting, sort of like Mud Runner, it could have been a good game.
    This however, is a rich story packaged in a bad game.

    Combat is... absolutely laughable. No challenge here, bossfights are boring as fk.
    The only time it's challenging is when you gotta deliver a package for your last mission and you get a bossfight... and you fall over with the package and it gets broken - which it will... 2 hits/falling and it's a goner.

    I really just can't comprehend how you can put so much work into a game and ruin it with horrible gameplay where the core of it just isn't in any way satisfying. It's such a shame.

    Bottom line - can't recommend it.    … Expand

The story of the game is a sad joke. The fan theories of what the game could be about was far more interesting than the banal drivel offered in this game. Why is this character called Die Hardman? Because he...died...hard. You'll get typical Hideo Kojima try hard lines like, "I'm Fragile but not that fragile" without the bombastic and interesting cutscenes of the Metal Gear Solid games. The entire game is an exercise in futility.

    The story beats you over the head over and over again with stupid lines like, "We need to be connected" and other things that might have felt "cool" in Kojima's mind but falls flat in execution. Don't be surprised if you end up rolling your eyeballs so far inside your socket at the game's sad excuse for "twists" and "revelations". Only a fool would be unable to see where this predictable trash story is going to lead.

    The gameplay is basically a walking simulator (Amazon Prime delivery simulator) set in an open, empty world with nothing to do. You walk from point A to point B. Unlike what all the idiotic shills like to say, there is no "challenge" in traversing the dumb environment. There are falling rocks that phase through you without doing any damage whatsoever. This must be the "challenge" shills were talking about. The game's online basically has roads and ziplines everywhere so it's easy to travel to and fro without. The combat in this game revolves around throwing poo and pee grenades at dumb bullet sponge enemies. Enemy AI is stupid and can be easily tricked into loops where you can annihilate them.

    The music is basically licensed trash that you can listen to while trudging across America which looks a lot like Iceland than America. It is clear that Kojima spent the bulk of his money on the so called "star studded" losers from TV and film. All that money wasted, on characters you won't care for, on a game that seeks to insult your intelligence by repeating plot points and threads ad nauseum.

    The PC version of the game comes with Denuvo DRM so to hell with gamers willing to pay money for this trash. It also works only on Windows 10 and won't work on GPUs and CPUs that are technically able to run this unappealing wreck of a game. The game still has numerous crashes and bugs on certain hardware setups (check the Steam forums to know the full extent of how bad this game is).

    Death Stranding is quite possibly the worst game made by Hideo Kojima that fails in every aspect. It's no wonder that Sony did not offer him another deal to work with them. They've also stopped revealing sales numbers after the initial flow of articles that said the game sold 200k copies in Japan (total tally is 399k in Japan). Death Stranding was at the top of the list but quickly toppled over after a few days. To this day, Hideo Kojima insists his game is not a flop. If it is not a flop, why won't he reveal the sales numbers? Last Guardian sold around 1.4 million copies. Ghost of Tsushima sold 2.4 million copies in 3 days. Why is Kojima the only one who refuses to state how many copies his game sold? Please don't post me fake stats from Gamstat that says the game has 3 million players (there is something called Game Sharing on Playstation). Besides, Gamstat states on their website that the numbers are not official. What's the point then? Kojima insists his game is a success. I don't believe him. The game flopped big time. The Steam numbers for the game is pathetic as well.

    If you want to spend your time on a quality game, kindly play something else rather than this putrid pile of garbage called Death Stranding. The game spends more time blowing its c__k than in at least trying to engage the player in any meaningful form. A stupid game, made by a narcissistic pseudo intellectual game maker who is riding on the coat tails of past successful games. That's what you'll get with Death Stranding.

Game is crashing (turning down some security wall through command fixed it... wtf?). And there are more bizzare problems. I waited few days and i was pretty sure that they will fix it with some quick update and I was surprised that they don't care about it. It's already two weeks after release and there was only one small update which fixed nothing for me. From update page it looks like they care more about people sharing screenshots than playing the game without problems. I don't know how they can put a year of work into this port and then don't care about it after its release. What should people think about them?… Expand

    A word of warning, if you are like me and wanna do the side objectives as in getting all preppers on 5 stars then I can only urge you to think about for a good while, there ain't a massive payoff to it and it damn well nearly drove me insane at times, I recommend only doing so if you are really determined and wanna see every little bit of content in the game.    … Expand

    Death Stranding is not a game for everyone. A cynical person could say, that Hideo Kojima looked at the most tedious fetch quests from various openworld RPGs, at the most boring aspects of ingame inventory management, and built an entire game around that. A cynical person would be right, in a way. But that's not all this game is. Death Stranding is a game about challenging deliveries ofDeath Stranding is not a game for everyone. A cynical person could say, that Hideo Kojima looked at the most tedious fetch quests from various openworld RPGs, at the most boring aspects of ingame inventory management, and built an entire game around that. A cynical person would be right, in a way. But that's not all this game is. Death Stranding is a game about challenging deliveries of various packages through desolate postapocalyptic landscape. But here's the thing. In Death Stranding, it's not boring. At least if you're invested and interested in the world. True, to an action game fan that just needs a quick shoot'em fix, this might be boring. But a thinking sci-fi fan will get sucked in fast. The worldbuilding and atmosphere is fantastic, and trying to find out more and more about what the hell happened to the world keeps you going. The key thing here is - it's slow. It's deliberately slow. It wants you to pause and think. I hated fetch quests in RPGs like Elder Scrolls or Fallout. But here, it's something entirely different. The landscape itself is your enemy. The weather is too. There are groups of NPCs who try to steal your packages, there are everpresent ghostly BTs that terrorize areas wasted by timefall. So yeah, you're delivering packages, but it's not "just" delivering packages. You're constantly struggling with enormous load on your back, with the unforgiving terrain, with timefall and exposure, with enemies. It's a struggle and it feels great to finally deliver a package and get to safety after a challenging run. While you're running around the ruined landscape, you're connecting isolated pockets of people who somehow survived the apocalypse, and now struggle to carry on. The point is, that what would be tedious and annoying in any other game is challenging and interesting here. This game is different, yes, but in a good way. There's so much more to it than meets the eye. It is a mix of several genres (stealth, action, horror), but survival is probably the most prominent one. The production is fantastic. It feels like you're watching some kind of postapo movie most of the time. There are vibes from Stalker, Thing, Aliens, or maybe more modern movies like Oblivion, Annihilation or Edge of Tomorrow. As always in Hideo Kojima's games, there are tons of mails and additional information you can read, and i recommend everyone to not skip through these materials. This is a game for a thinking person, you have to take it slow, you cannot just jump in, play for 30min and quit. It doesn't work that way. There are truly revolutionary ideas like the invisible enemies, player character's death turned into a gameplay mechanism, weather constantly eroding player-built structures and the ability to indirectly help each other, there's just too much to unpack, to describe, but this little review window is not a proper place to do it. I wholly recommend this game to people who often think about the life, universe and everything :-), who think about how this civilization might end, how it somehow feels downright weird that it hasn't happened yet, about the polarization in todays society, and how internet brought us together and isolated us at the same time. I recommend this game to people who like walking simulators, who like survival and crafting games, who like openworld games for the freedom of being able to go anywhere you want, who like sci-fi and postapocalyptic themes. I don't recommend this game to people who just "collect games", who download a game, and finish it in shortest time possible to move to another title. I don't recommend this game to action game fans, or to casual players. I would give it 10/10, but there are few things that could be better. Mainly, the game has absolutely terrible vehicle physics, and the abundance of multiplayer icons everywhere ruins the beautiful landscape views and therefore the atmosphere. I'd welcome a way to somehow limit the amount of multiplayer icons you see in an area. Also, 505 games really screwed-up the port, and at a time of writing this, there are pretty bad issues. There's a lot of extreme stuttering when loading new areas, and constant crashes to desktop, but afaik this isn't Kojima production's fault, so i'm not counting that towards the final score.… Expand

    The unusual and mysterious world where was interesting to be. Who can think that delivery quests could be interesting? So, I gave 8 because of the novel daring gameplay. I got pleasure. But if I would play a second game like this, I will give max 6. Because characters are naive and enemies too dumb, therefore I can't truly immerse in that world.

    This was my second time playing through the game. The game looks so much better than the PS4 version and runs much better too. There were a few bugs occasionally, including one that caused the game to crash every couple of hours. Other than that, the story and gameplay are amazing. I know some people like to say that the movement and gameplay is sluggish, and i would have to disagree.This was my second time playing through the game.

Other than that, the story and gameplay are amazing. I know some people like to say that the movement and gameplay is sluggish, and i would have to disagree. There are so many different tools you can get a hold of that alter the experience and equipment that can make traversing certain landscapes much easier. It sometimes seems as if people just like to **** on this game because it is a 'walking simulator' but it is so much more than that. I do find it strange that there are so many people leaving negative reviews saying the story and gameplay are boring when, according to steam, only 3.7% of people have actually completed the game (this only accounts for steam, but nobody in their right mind would buy it on Epic Games Launcher anyways) . It can be said that this game is definitely not for everyone. If you have a short attention span, or do not like very story intense games, then i would say it is not worth a purchase. It is also worth adding that the first few hours are much slower than later on. So far, i have immensely enjoyed my experience with the game, even with it being a second play through, and am one achievement away from getting them all. One of the best story games in recent times.… Expand

    Truly terrifying experience until you develop anti-BT weapons. Classic Kojima game. It lets me live out all my fantasies of being a badass mailman! A beautifully crafted world, cool characters, and Shinkawa's art! Loved the experience! All that being said, the pacing felt just a little slow during the start. I would likely enjoy a sequel!

    Pretty much every modern game is all about traversing across worlds in 3D space, but that is barely represented in the gameplay itself.

Death Stranding feels like aPretty much every modern game is all about traversing across worlds in 3D space, but that is barely represented in the gameplay itself. You know how in Skyrim you can just click on every item in the game to suck it into your inventory and as long as you're not over-encumbered you can just glide yourself and all that precious cargo up the side of a mountain? Death Stranding feels like a direct response to this. It's a game where you traverse across an open world, and the game is actually about playing the experience of traversing across an open world.

    This game is not for everyone, but if you fall into the target demographic for this type of thing it is absolutely your game and you owe it to yourself to play it, if for no other reason than it successfully gamifies something that in retrospect should have been a more obvious thing to gamify.

    Personally, I have always enjoyed hiking and backpacking and this is by far the game that brings me closest to that type of activity; about an hour and a half in I was walking over some rocky patches of ground and noticed the character kind of do some alternating little leaps from foot to foot to cross it and it looked exactly like how I have hiked on rocky trails before. This is a game that understands walking downhill can actually be harder and more dangerous than the steepest uphill trek.

    The writing? It's Kojima, again if you're in this target demographic then it is absolutely for you; and if you aren't that's ok. The themes are going to be out there, the metaphors are going to be a bit on the nose, no one will talk like any actual human does, but you're still just going to be so invested; the nest time you walk outside and it starts to rain your first thought is going to be about avoiding the timefall.

    I'm not done with the main story yet (16 hours in at the time of typing this), but I can already tell this is going to be a game that sticks with me for many years.    … Expand

    The story is pretty much intriguing and will keep you hold to the end, sometimes you will have a strong feeling of wtf is happening, but everything will unfold at the end leaving you with a good feeling, however, I find in Sam the very same problem that I found in Venom Snake, the guy barely speaks, and when he does a lot of times what he says is pretty contradictory.
    The game-play is unlike anything you have experience, I've seen many people saying: The game is boring, because I've seen it in Twitch and it looked boring... Wrong, the game make you choose your path, which many times challenge you to take dangerous decisions, you need to focus on how to manage your inventory and what you can carry, and where are you going to get carrying that, that is the big difference between seeing it and playing it, so don't trust the game-plays, if you are not sure, rent it, play it, and if it still doesn't convince you just don't buy it, but I strongly advise you against making a judgement only based on what you can see on twitch.

    El gameplay consigue meterte en la sensación que el mundo refleja, es un mundo cambiado, difícil y peligroso donde los repartidores juegan un papel esencial, y en su trabajo calcular la ruta y el tiempo es vital. Puede ser frustrante caerte y pensar que los controles son toscos, pero así es cuando llevas una carga, el juego te deja claro además que los vehículos no son ni tanques ni todoterrenos.

It takes patience, appreciation for a story, and time (something that professional game critics do not have, in my opinion). I spent 200 hours in this game.

    Games are rapidly becoming more and more generic. Shoot this, puzzle this. Often it's the same concept with a different skin. Death stranding dares to be different and does it wonderfully.

    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.
