    Glorified walking simulator. I expected a lot more from Hideo Kojima, who created the extremely well-made series Metal Gear (specifically Metal Gear Solid). A glorified package delivering/walking simulator is what I got. Really disappointed.

    Es un juego repetitivo, demasiado lento, sin ritmo. Que en lugar de envolverte y atraparte, te aburre un montón.
    Y aunque el juego busca explotar cosas interesantes y novedosas, al final se queda corto.
    En conclusión, Death Stranding no es un juego para cualquiera, al cual le falta bastante para ser un juego del agrado de muchos.

    Cons-
    Everything else. The" gameplay" if you want to call it that. is incredibly boring. It is literally fetch quest after fetch quest after fetch quest broken up by boring exposition.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This is the worst game I've ever played and I've played a lot of games (more than your life on this planet). Now we got this out of the way, you might be wondering what's going on with this title and the problems behind it. I'll break it down, starting with the "gameplay"

    The Gameplay:
    The gameplay boils down to this, take packages and go from point A to Point B, sometimes a Point C in between. You traverse through a misleading map that is claimed to be as big as the USA but is actually smaller than most open world games (blame the lies from Sony and KJP's marketing). It uses draw distance as a means to distract the player in grasping the environment. While the environment is graphically impressive, graphics will be the least of your worries here. As you deliver packages, Kojima claims you can do stealth or guns a blazing, except there's two big problems with this. Going Rambo on everything forces you to die and go to the underworld, which is composed of a trash linear TPS segment that makes PS1 shooters look like works of art. To save you from the pain of playing this, it throws you immediately back to the real world right before you collect your missing items. You'd have more fun buying a water blaster toy or a nerf gun than this, hell you'd have more fun playing cops and robbers as an adult than this segment. What about the stealth? It's non-existent as well. While you do crouch and walk like previous MGS games, it's not a stealth game. BTs can sense you if you move too much and then it just becomes a game of "walk away and hope he doesn't notice me, wait he does" because the AI is programmed to notice you regardless if you hold your breath so the only option is to leave the area. Encounters with the occasional highlighter hazmat suit enemies is pure trash, carjacking is a cutscenes and takedowns are a cutscenes. It interrupts the flow of a very tedious cycle of sloppily punching enemies.

    So yes, all you do is walk, like any other game. Delivering packages not only becomes a tedious chore but more of an escourt mission, that is making sure the packages don't get lost. If it gets lost, tough luck; that women won't get her semen and that dude won't get his pizza. Does the story change significantly? No, it doesn't change at all; and neither does the gameplay. What about the boss battles? Well, goo monsters are recycled in different forms (lion, whale, etc) with no brainpower required; just press the button and it'll be dead. Bosses are completely unimaginative from an artistic point of view. What about Higgs? It turns into the most poorly made and thought of boss fight; it's a glorified rockem sockem robot fight, but worse. The animations are not only janky during that boss fight, but throughout the game like sliding down a cliff or picking up packages.

    The Story: Incoherent garbage psychobabble mixed with content ripped off from popular literary books like "The Time Wanderers" and "Hard Boiled Egg." Nothing makes sense and not in the good mysterious way. A child would be able to concoct a better story than this failed auteur of a director. The game wastes your time with HOURS UPON HOURS OF CUTSCENES, but thankfully you can skip them since it doesn't mean anything at the end of the day. Whats the plot twist? Lindsay Wagner is the big bad of the game (you defeat her by pushing two buttons to hug her) and Mads is actually the good guy. Nothing is resolved with the flying figures, Refn never finds his family, and the rest is just stupid.

    Do not buy this game unless you're a:
    1) Blind fanboy 2) Want to burn money for the sake of it

    Don't be fooled into nice graphics, they don't help you here. As for having a new genre? That was a lie. Kojima doesn't play games and doesn't know what to call this mess. Sony advertises this as a adventure game, but it's a whole less adventure and a whole lot more walking and chores. Any game is better than this. Play Journey, it actually emphasizes connections. Play any simulator game like train sim, it's more fun and well thought out. Play heavy rain or any PlayStation exclusive, it's a lot more engaging and coherent than this steaming pile of feces. Play paperboy, it's a lot better mailman game than this. Play any point and click game like monkey island, it's a lot better of an adventure than this.

    This entire game's development and hype is revolved around lies and paid reviews. I'm ashamed to being a PlayStation owner among many other consoles. Do a favor for your wallet and avoid this game like the plague. It's just not worth it. Still dying to play it? Rent a copy for $10, its worth less than that. Or, you can watch a full play through for free on YouTube since this game is such a mess. Verdict: This game is the E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial game of today. Except all the critics are paid off and fanboys mad. Don't believe me? Look at the near/perfect scores & see what they actually write to find out for yourself. What a shame

    Such a disappointment. This game is an empty world with a broken gameplay and bad A.I.

    Kojima said he invented a new genre of game.. He should just work on basics because everything is wrong with Death Stranding, except the music. But hey, it's not "music by hideo kojima" maybe that's why it's the only good thing.

    Death Stranding me lembra o rompimento entre a estética e a arte que aconteceu no início século XX. Uma época em que se questionou muito o papel da arte. A arte deve entreter? Deve ser bela? Deve transmitir sentimento? Sem sim, bons ou ruins? Filosoficamente temos muitas indagações interessantes, ao mesmo tempo que muito charlatanismo inundou o meio artístico.

Deve transmitir sentimento? Sem sim, bons ou ruins? Filosoficamente temos muitas indagações interessantes, ao mesmo tempo que muito charlatanismo inundou o meio artístico.
    Parece que houve uma tentativa de causar uma impressão de fardo na jornada de Sam. Bem como é um fardo para o jogador ter de jogar um gameplay tão tedioso. Na história, ele não quer fazer as entregas, bem como você também não quer jogar. E aí vem a semelhança com arte do início do século XX. O vídeo game deve entreter? Deve ser...divertido? Deve transmitir sentimento? Se sim, bons ou ruins?
    Digamos que, em transmitir um sentimento esse jogo é eficiente. Mesmo que sejam sentimentos ruins de tédio ou frustração em alguns momentos.
    Para mim, arte sem beleza é um lixo e videogame sem diversão também. Não é um jogo divertido, mas artisticamente tem seu valor. Como objeto artístico, nota 10, como vídeo game, nota 0.

    Kojima should've stayed with konami. The game is beautiful but you can clearly tell that konami carried the metal gear series. Pointless cut scenes and very very lack luster gameplay. Metal gear survive was 10 times more fun than this. Don't waste 60 bucks in this. You'd be better off paying 10 bucks.

    Начнём с того, что по началу, когда я только запустил игру, её главное меню показалось мне бедным, и это так и есть: огромная надпись "Death Stranding" и внизу текст с пунктами с синей волной. Всё. Думал: "Ну минимализм, что в этом плохого, Коджимба же гений, ему виднее"

    Первые несколько часов было интересно, ведь игра наполнена катсценами, а ходить нужно на небольшие дистанции, но иногда становилось скучно, но познавать какие-то элементы управления было всё таки интересно, но их тут не так много, чтобы всё прохождение постоянно было что-то новое.

    Постепенно, я стал больше замечать, что игра мне скучна, ходишь из точки А и до точки Б, а в награду дают катсцену. Круто же! В итоге, нам ничего толком не объясняют, и мы вынужденны сами до чего-то догадываться, строить теории и так далее, кроме того, многие сюжетные повороты легко предугадываются, ну и вишенка на торте - сюжет наполнен некоторыми тупыми и необъяснимыми моментами.

    Я надеялся на эту игру, а получился "Симулятор курьера, с наградами в виде катсцен". Видно было сразу, что Кодзима спустил все деньги на голливудский каст, подарочки для блогеров и музыкальные композиции от популярных исполнителей.

    Кстати, поподробнее о подарочках для блогеров: Кодзима отправил четырём летстплеерам специальные АЛЮМИНИЕВЫЕ кейсы, в которых была PS4 pro, оформленная в стиле игры, кьюпид (кулон, который стоит 325$ в оф. магазине Кодзимы и который является самым дорогим сувениром там), контроллер в том же стиле и беспроводные наушники.

    А теперь рассмотрим коллекционку Death Stranding, которая стоит в районе 12 тысяч рублей. В её набор входит: ПЛАСТИКОВЫЙ кейс, изолента (15$), брелок космонавта (17$) и пластмассовая капсула с BB, которая слегка светится. Всё.

    Кодзиме просто плевать на фанатов, потому что ему важнее его Эго, которое он тешит своей игрой, блогеры, которые называют его гением, а на обычных игроков ему насрать.

    И как сказал Кодзима: "Американцы — большие поклонники шутеров от первого лица, а Death Stranding сделана в другом жанре, она выше этого.", так что ребята, мы просто "американцы" которые не на его интеллектуальном уровне. Куда нам, до гения!

    speaking of the cancer in the industry.. this game is awful what an embarrassment.. there's so much product placement in your face throughout most of the game. horrible face scans of hack celebrities pollute the already cringey and ridiculous dialogue segments. the game relies on cheap slow progression to stimulate a dopamine hit in the brains of idiots who keep playing this garbage via meaningless social media type "likes". progression is structured like a predatory gambling or mobile game in that nothing in the game is remotely good for the player or fun or mechanically solid or well designed but the game keeps drip feeding you in the hope your an idiot manipulated by addiction bait.
    this game is **** it's slow, boring, tedious, monotonous, repetitive walking and back tracking through bland and empty environments (the characters even reference the fact the game is boring.. like that makes it ok).
    The purpose of the game is grinding to make the the gameplay less boring and **** you walk and you walk some more, you perform the same tedious tasks over and over in order to unlock and build things that make those crappy tasks less slow and boring and can pretty much skip gameplay entirely.
    the game never approaches being good. it's either slow and boring or you unlock things to make it less slow and it's still boring and still sucks.

    The physics and controls are wonky garbage. nothing in the game has engaging game design. it all seems to be designed to be tedious. a lot of the voice acting is awful the bad guy is the only character who doesn't sound like he's reading directly off a script written in gibberish. and a lot this game IS just stupid gibberish, the game rewards your tedious labour with pointless repeating cutscene sequences that take too long to skip and with characters talking at you with long boring exposition the game seems to think is super profound and show no respect for you time when dumping it on you. you grunt in Normal Reedus in response, backtrack home, drink your Monster Enegery Drink™ and then rinse and repeat.
    The writing is awful. the game really thinks it's something special and self aware but Ironically in it's attempt to be that, it's shown to be the opposite and all the messages, themes and metaphors come across hamfisted, childish and super on the nose if not down right moronic when a character called fragile's catchphrase is "i'm fragile but i'm not.. that fragile".
    this game is an embarrassing self indulgent turd. 0/10. It's **** but it's not that **** oh wait yes it is.

    The fun i had was with building and seeing the likes and the sense of community (ripped from dark souls)

El ritmo de la narrativa es TAN LENTO que no te entran ganas de jugar.

    Tengo la sensacion que me han vendido una pelicula bluray muy larga a precio completo de videojuego (70€) en lugar de a precio de bluray (20€).

    Unfortunately this game flopped hard, it did not live up to the hype and I just cannot recommend it to anyone, for the first few hours you'll be invested and engaged, but not long after this gets repetitive and interest will drop off a cliff.

It's got a ton of routine work, it's largely repetitive without a satisfactory return on that work. And it simply is "less than" in terms of what I was hoping for on this first venture post-Konami from Kojima-san. But as EDGE says, this feels like a foundation for future efforts, and if that's the case, perhaps I will revise my score when that next "installment" comes in. Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. It’s a tightrope walking package delivery simulator, with a convoluted and contradictory plot. You strap cargo (poorly) and deliver packages from one point to another trying not to fall. After delivering your packages (again) you are graded for it without much of an explanation of what my grade means. There is a chart, but what the hell am I doing other than not falling down to increase it. Then there is the main plot mechanism. We have to deliver these keys from site to site to reunite America otherwise the world is destroyed. The kicker? Your sister that look like your mother that died, is being held hostage on the west coast, by a rouge city as insurance so that Daryl and the gang can’t bring this city into the new America. Yet this city is graciously allowing Daryl’s captive sister to use their equipment so that she can project herself. Project herself to Daryl and the new America to rule, all the while by scheming to overthrow that rouge city and bring his sister back. I’m only an hour and a half into the game. This game is **** But I’m going to finish it and then write a novelization of the plot. Expand

    This is one of the most overrated pieces of entertainment ever released. The game is a tedious, repetitive mess that offers no challenge whatsoever. All it asks from you as a player is your patience and time, lots of it. The world has little to no variety. But the most infuriating thing about the game is how incredibly amateurish it is in the way it tells its story.

    - The story of the game is very complicated to swallow even for people like us who have been force-fed to science fiction, fantasy and other **** of all kinds. The plot really takes off only from episode 7-8 and everything that happens before can be summarized as such: "Sam, take this and get it from A to B NPCs that have no names, no interest in history, or even physical representation- The story of the game is very complicated to swallow even for people like us who have been force-fed to science fiction, fantasy and other **** of all kinds. The plot really takes off only from episode 7-8 and everything that happens before can be summarized as such: "Sam, take this and get it from A to B NPCs that have no names, no interest in history, or even physical representation (holograms) ". You tell me "it's the game" ... OK, but we expected that we still have more things to put in the tooth coming from the one who has laid the MGS saga.

    We can not feel emotion for the characters and what happens to them because one of them we do not see most of the time, two of them are grotesque caricatures (the guys are called Deadman, Die Hardman, Cliff and they embody their names ... it's the zero level of writing), and from three in the prologue to episode 7-8 we take part in very embarrassing situations, cinematics and dialogues that give the impression of have been written by terminals S spé SVT. Immaturity with a touch of pseudo science **** peculiar to the world of death stranding.

    There is no epicness, no drama, no sadness, love, sorrow ... everything is very smooth and uncluttered. It's dead like the open world. The only character who brings warmth, for which we are likely to feel something is this good old Sam (Norman Reedus) because it is the most human of all and the one to which we will identify the most.

    - The gameplay is MISERABLE. It's HONTEUX to release a game like that in 2019 with so many bugs, a physics nicked against the ground (a height for a game in the genre centered on the movement), ignoble fights where we can only hammer square at the CaC , odious and unworthy TPS phases that were better in MGSV, and ANEXISTENT infiltration. THE AI IS DAUBE, IMMONDE! How did you get from the MGSV nugget to that ?! It's literally inadmissible.

    Couple that with invisible walls, huge bugs of collision, a character who does not always meet our guidelines ... it gives a very little experience. And the worst part of all this is the empty open world. All maps are similar, there are only 3 large variations (in addition to Flashbacks during the old wars) namely rocky territory, desert territory and snow-covered territory.

    ALL HUBs are the same, ditto for cities apart from 3 cities that stand out not by their beauty or appearance but by their design different from others ... at least enough for me to notice.

    We have the right to use a ton of different equipment of all kinds ... but the guys to deliver parcels quietly you just need a bike, a good pair of boots and it's all + j 'barely exaggerates. I tried to use a lot of stuff to play the game and because I have nothing to do with my days except classes ... but in real life it's not very useful, it's more handicap because we slow down .

    - Boss fights? Which boss fights? We have two real boss fights ... and on both there is one that is repeated 3 times on a different map each time ... and that's it. The principle does not change it is just empty him of chargers in the mouth or immobilize it from behind. The boss fight of episode 9 is the best moment of the game for me because stuffed with easter eggs of MGS.

    Otherwise ... ZERO CHALLENGE. I did it in difficult (max difficulty) and of course I rolled on everyone without problem.

    - The OST and the sound environment in general are masterful. From the great Ludwig Forsell, well done. The band Low Roar who made an album for the game is awesome too. The atmosphere is very melancholic at times and then switch on the wave, synth wave or whatever .. But things to Blade Runner what. Very good point.

    - The staging is BEAUTIFUL! THE big highlight of the game Serious he really should make cinema because it's ultra clean. Cinematics are a real treat. We feel that each detail to its importance, that the team has put all his heart and soul in it. There is really nothing to complain about and the capture of the actors and their movement is beautiful too. The camera movements, the plans ... everything is so smooth and well executed, it makes everything pleasant and alive.

    Balance sheet:

    35 hours of play. And I have never been so mixed up for a game. I could talk about the topics discussed but I spoiler a lot and I surely have not yet surrounded everything. I just quickly talked about what had shocked me in the first place for good or bad.

    Overall I think this would have been a great idea for a movie. Unfortunately the gameplay is bare bones and boring, which is unfortunate for a video game that has so much potential and huge development budget. I wouldn’t recommend you spend the money or time on this one.

    Death Stranding is is the highest budget walking simulator. If menus configuring package by weight on different body parts and pressing L2 or R2 to keep balance randomly or else risk dropping your carefully balanced body weight seems entertaining this game is for you. Unfortunately I don’t think this appeals to many.

    Story wise it’s a cool movie concept and the ghosts (BTs) are creepy and well animated. So many famous people with bizarre dialogue that is very lost in translation. Why does a character have to be introduced to his own mother as “here is a character. Your mother, [her first name]”, or “it’s me, [weird character name]” the 100th time they talk to you. It’s as if everything is told to you with awkward dialogue instead of showing you. The plot told to you is vague but if you think about it you can get the general idea and it seems cool for a movie.

    Graphics are gorgeous and the online feature where you see ladders and other useful terrain crossing items is a cool idea, for a delivery walking simulator. For a walking game there is very little to explore outside of terrain and delivery points. No secrets or lore to uncover just deliver packages. This is incredibly unacceptable for a walking video game.

    Death Stranding is game that is made out of good ideas. It is a game that is built on aiming for greatness. It is a game that does many things that many people love. It is a game that deserves recognition for what it tried to do. But it is also a game that people are not obligated to enjoy despite its faults.

    Death Stranding has a disconnect between its story and gameplay that it never tries to reconcile. People worship you for delivering 5 pounds of medicine in a mission that took you 3 minutes to deliver. People will admonish you for things that you have no control over. The gameplay never touches the story and the story tries to use the gameplay as a sort of analogy for the setting and the world it takes place in but it forgets to ever do anything that makes sense.

    The story telling method they chose to go with is meaning through obfuscation. Rather than give you a story and meaning they give you words that have no inherent meaning and then drip feed the proper interpretation of them to you over the course of the game so that you construct the plot yourself as you go. Chiral chiral chiral chiral, good, bad, voidout, chiral, chiralium, beach, beached things, voidout, chiral, bridges, Sam. You start the game with 2 hours of that before the game even starts trying to try and mean anything.

    But then the game grows into something amazing. When you get past the intro and you look past the story you find a game that is a piece of art - where players work together to shape and reform the world for the convenience of each other. It allows you to define your experience and engage in a community art project. For a couple chapters.

    After a few chapters of this interesting concept the game dumps you into a hellish nightmare in which your movement speed is reduced, vehicles barely work, enemies can't be avoided (and are even more tedious than normal to fight) and the only way to progress is by going out of your way to build zip lines so that you can minimize the amount of time you play the game.

    Once the hellscape ends the game dumps you onto exposition lane - a series of 5 chapters which repeat the story to you over and over again, simultaneously summarizing your previous 30 hours of gameplay and force feeding you confusing and nonsensical twists. The game never had anything resembling pacing but in the last 5 chapters all pacing goes out the window completely. The game revels in making you do nothing for a while (literally nothing but walking around an empty environment) because it's trying to convey a message to you about your character that it thinks is more important than player engagement.

    When you finally get to the final chapter the game has you spend 15 minutes emotionally investing you before providing you with a 45 minute cutscene that is comprised almost entirely of cutscenes you've already seen before providing the final shocking twist. It is patronizing. DS does not respect your intelligence, it does not respect your time.

    DS does not respect what you want in a game and instead prioritizes what it wants to be over what it could be. This is not, in of itself, a bad thing. Games are explorations of art and potential and a game deserves to strive for something meaningful. But being art does not put it above criticism. Many, myself included, will not find the games attempt at meaning worth the time or energy investment that it takes to get to the payoff. If the story had been better, less patronizing? Maybe then it would be worth it.

    At its best I felt the game was a 9/10. At its best I wanted to keep playing and do everything. I wanted to explore and to participate in its world.

    At its best I felt the game was a 1/10. Not fun, not meaningful, not worth my time or energy. I stopped playing several times with no intention of coming back but I did eventually force my way through it.

    DS is a game of high potential dragged down by lame executions and poor design choices. It is a game that I want to influence the world, but it is not a game I will ever play again. It is a game that I think everyone should try but that I would never recommend. It is a game that deserves all the criticism it receives and it is a game that deserves all the love that its fans have for it. Death Stranding is a game that will stay in my head for a very long time, but very little of what I think will be positive.

    The story was interesting. The gameplay was downright not fun. This is an actual walking simulator. An open world with nothing in it but bump mapping. The cities are empty.

    Kojima does a good job making the world but having such a big game means spending more time walking from in between places. The terrain is so bad, you cant even drive the vehicles. So not only its a walking simulator, u have to take care of your baby to so parenting similator. Quests boil down to delivery and fetch quests.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I wanted to like it. I use HzD as a walking simulator and DS starts good, looks gorgeous and sets you up nicely in the story. Then everything goes south. Repetitive cutscenes after every action (even peeing), the same explanations over and over again (via video, audio and text, most of the time not skippable, but pausable, WTF). And then you realize, that everything is pointless. You can't die and even if the BTs get you and you explode, you come back, grab your cargo and everything is fine. When your cargo is a human, you might nearly even destroy it, deliver it as a bloody package and everything is fine. So: Nothing matters in this game. Horrible user interface, repetitive missions, the same cutscene over and over again and every few hours a little movie to bring the main story forward. And there are 10 hours of movie stuff in this game (not counting the mentioned peeing cutscene). What really shines in this game is Decima, the graphics engine. The graphics look fantastic. In 4K HDR on an OLED it generates some of the best looking images I ever saw on the PS4 Pro. Too bad they not only forgot to create a game, but they did this on purpose. Expand

    Un desastre de juego, primero hicieron la historia-cinematicas y al final metieron el gameplay, un asco la jugabilidad y todas las misiones repetidas

    Gracias por eliminar mi comentario donde ponía que el juego era un walk simulator, que la musica si estaba bien, pero que te acabas durmiendo de camino del punto A al B

    Death Stranding is creating a new game genre and therefore paves its own path towards more interactive experiences. It is a brave work thanks to its novelty, which fortunately is not a bragging right for its creators, as it may have seemed, but an exceptional title that will reward the brave who play it.

    This game does manage to be fun, even if it is one of the heaviest experiences of 2019. Everything from story to gameplay is begging to be dissected, filled with imagery and symbolism -- just like so many Kojima games before this one. Entering Death Stranding, it’s likely that we all thought Kojima’s calling card was lengthy cutscenes and stealth and action gameplay.

    Death Stranding stands as a powerful author’s game which drives a strong message of how our over-connected society is evolving, and how we can help other players. Unlike many AAA games, it shines on a truly spiritual level. Well written, engaging and visually magnificent, it offers, despite some pacing flaws, an astonishing solo game with elegant multiplayer elements. A unique representation of Hideo Kojima’s talent.
