    I really fall in love this game! I have finsihed it years before and this is the second time I start it over again!
    I have to tell you the truth. I am a super autistic man and really love to do the same things again and again. The more the repetitive something is, the more I love it.

    The best game I had played since the Witcher 3. The true masterpiece was written by a genius (lol but true). For first you understand nothing, but then you get more involved and this world seems to you so real... I really love this game, playing on 5 chapter and even don't know how it will end. And I don't want to see the end...

    The name of the game is patience. If you stick with it long enough you will come to find that it is one of the best written and designed games of recent memory. Throw it a bone!

    El juego es plano y raro a partes iguales. Es fácil sentirse perdido al principio, sobretodo en la historia, que te va dando información a cuentagotas y de manera bastante extraña (Kojimadas). Misiones repetitivas de ir de un punto A a un punto B (horas de misiones así...) hasta el punto de odiar este p**o juego... Peeeeero...

    Que quereis que os diga, a mí me pareció un juego    El juego es plano y raro a partes iguales. Es fácil sentirse perdido al principio, sobretodo en la historia, que te va dando información a cuentagotas y de manera bastante extraña (Kojimadas). Misiones repetitivas de ir de un punto A a un punto B (horas de misiones así...) hasta el punto de odiar este p**o juego... Peeeeero...

    Que quereis que os diga, a mí me pareció un juego sobresaliente. Aún con todos estos defectos, el juego transmite una sensación de soledad y tristeza magistralmente como nunca había sentido en ningún videojuego. Además, el factor de que el mundo sea tan hóstil y de que todo se pueda ir al garete en cualquier momento (normal, el mundo se ha ido a la mi**da y la lluvia te puede matar!), hace que este sea un juego de sensaciones. Desglosemos, que hay miga:

    - Historia, empieza lenta, pero luego a mí me atrapó. Está muy por encima de la media de películas/series de temática "mundo postapocalíptico", y tiene unos giros y unas idas de pinzas dignas del mismísimo Nolan. El reparto es muy acertado también.

    - Gráficos tocando el techo de esta generación. No veáis como se ponía mi ps4 al correr el juego... Parecía que tenía el microondas en el salón. Escenografía bonita, y al contrario de lo que puede parecer al principio, por tratarse de páramos desolados donde sólo hay rocas y rios, no es para nada monótono. Se siente bastante vivo.

    - Banda sonora de 10 y excelentemente escogida (Tardaré en olvidar el momento en el que estás aún asumiendo toda la historia y el maestro Kojima te calza "Death Stranding" de los Chvrches. Balazo al corazón)

    - El gameplay, SÚPER PLANO, pero asombrosamente adictivo! Es simple, no deja de ser un walking simulator con 4 mecánicas extras, pero joder, el aspecto de construir estructuras de manera conjunta con otros jugadores es un acierto mayúsculo. Cuesta parar de jugar, porque siempre hay un puente que terminar, una carretera que construir o una tirolina que levantar (Dios bendiga a las tirolinas)

    Y creo que no me dejo nada. Lo recomiendo? Sí, pero sólo si lo vas a jugar con la mente abierta. Para lo bueno y para lo malo, este juego no se parece a nada de lo que hayas jugado antes, te lo aseguro.
    Simplemente como resumen, para mí, este juego me ha impactado/marcado tanto como en su día lo hizo Half-Life cuando lo jugué por primera vez. Son juegos muy diferentes, pero con sensaciones muy similares (salvando las distancias técnicas en el tiempo, eso sí).
    Long life Kojima! [link omitted per site rules]    … Expand

И финал, тут у меня нет слов это целый фильм, финал это целый фильм таких катсцен ещё не было , таких эмоций тоже давно. Все это приправлено постоянным ощущением на протяжении игры что рядом непонятный враг и нереально сильным общим сюжетным посылом.

    This game isn't for everyone but in no way deserves a 0-3 in score. Games have to be completely broken like Fallout 76 for that to happen. Kojima is setting new gameplay ideas and systems in place for his future games and I'm excited to see where his production company goes in the future.

Contemplative, immersive and for adults, there are not many games in the catalog that fit that definition.
    Technically impressive, stage scale, lighting, textures, soundtrack ... I've got to spend some time carrying packages enjoying the scenery and its climatic effects ... who would have thought!
    In my case, I was looking for something more contemplative to disconnect and relax ... it totally complies.
    In the weakest points ... the duration, at some point it becomes monotonous and repetitive, being that the combat mechanics are not excellent. The final bosses, gives the feeling of being integrated "by contract" but does not feel with the same care as the rest of the game. The idea of ​​crafting and farming is very good, but it is one step away from being well executed; in my case, it does not generate enough incentive for you to go to collect materials and build new structures, you can progress without doing so and it is perceived as too optional, when it should be one of the cores of the game. Similar happens with the idea of ​​an interconnected world where structures built by other players are integrated; It is a very powerful concept, but it ends up being very accessory when it comes to playing. It is curious that this feeling is present in so many sections of the game, how the use of "likes"; where openly it is not exchanged for anything explicit that changes the experience in the game, which totally dilutes the stimulus to improve. The feeling is that the game was conceived in a brilliant line, and when there were 3 months left they said, stop what you are doing and put in final bosses!
    The story has been liked by many, I suppose it will depend on tastes, it seems too pretentious and convoluted to me, it did not generate much interest at any time. On a positive note, it is very well told, the characters are charismatic and the outcome improves it a lot ... a story, perhaps not to my liking.
    There may be more shadows than lights, but with such a lack of adult games, and the brutal technical finish, it borders on excellent.    … Expand

It’s beautiful and the time spent in the world, where you see scattered traces of other players who have left bridges, protection and warnings along the way to guide you through the elements is a spellbinding experience. This is what happens when one person is given complete oversight over something as expansive as this: yeah, there's clumsy metaphors, corny dialogue and some bizarre mechanics but it's *complete* in a way that almost no other release is. Its themes, messaging and gameplay continuity are so constantly with you, and you're consistently being reminded of them without it getting old.

    I'd just say: don’t impulse-buy this because it’s a Kojima title and you're looking for MGS, you’ll be disappointed like so many on this website. Look into it properly and buy it for the game that it is.    … Expand

Debe de ser de los más polarizantes que haya visto nunca en base a las reviews que hay por aquí.

    Quitémonos primero las partes que creo que no tienen discusión: su apartado técnico y sonoro. Death Stranding es de los juegos que tocan el techo gráfico de la PS4. Un mundo abierto enorme, con climas dinámicos y ni una sola bajada de fps (va a 30, eso sí). En cierto momento del juego, te dan facilidades para atravesar el mundo más rápidamente y apenas he notado popping o ralentizaciones en ningún momento. Las texturas y modelados de personajes tienen muchísima calidad, y las animaciones... madre mía con las animaciones. Siendo un juego de quien es, con cinemáticas bastante largas a ratos, se agradece muchísimo que le pongan todo el empeño a las animaciones faciales y modelados de los personajes, sinceramente, están a una calidad que he visto en pocos juegos. Me deja perplejo como de bien han recreado a los actores que encarnan a estos personajes y, además, el doblaje (yo lo he jugado en español) es sublime.

    El apartado sonoro del título es también otra de sus grandes virtudes, y no solo por la música, que es espectacular, si no por el cuidado que se le han puesto a varios sonidos y efectos ambiente. El único pero es que creo que algunas canciones no suenan en el momento adecuado y se interrumpen con mucha facilidad, por lo que no te da tiempo a disfrutarlas plenamente. Como he dicho antes. el doblaje me parece muy bueno, tanto de personajes principales como secundarios.

    Jugablemente, Death Stranding es un título muy extraño. Literalmente su loop jugable se basa en recoger y entregar paquetes (o "carga", como se le llama en el juego), enfrentándonos a diversos obstáculos en ocasiones, como pueden ser grupos de enemigos, terrenos complicados, climas adversos, etc. El cómo, cuándo y cuántos paquetes lleva Sam lo decides mayoritariamente tú mismo.

    Es un juego de dar caminatas, literalmente, pero también es mucho más. El género, como lo define su creador, es el "social strand", donde varios jugadores cooperan en un mismo mundo para facilitarse las entregas los unos a los otros. Es decir, tú, como jugador, estarás solo en un tu mundo, pero te irás encontrando estructuras que han fabricado otros jugadores en los suyos, carga que hayan dejado tirada por ahí o señales que te avisen de peligros inminentes. Tu puedes hacer lo mismo, siendo la recompensa "likes" que te dejan el resto de jugadores si les gustan o les ayudan las estructuras que construyas. Al principio no me acababa de convencer la idea, pero aproximadamente después de 4 o 5 horas de juego (tiene un inicio muuuuuy lento) empecé a entender de que iba la cosa.

    Vayamos con el tema tabú de este título: Hideo Kojima y su carrera de cineasta frustrado. No diría que la historia de Death Stranding es especialmente buena, ni que sus personajes son memorables. A ratos he tenido la sensación de como si hubieran intentado hacer la típica del protagonista silencioso, pero solo a medias. Sam es extremadamente aburrido como personaje, exceptuando momentos muy contados. El resto no van mucho más allá y no por su interpretación, que, de nuevo, es sublime, si no por sus... diálogos, ¿sus formas de expresarse?, no lo sé. Hay algo en ellos que se siente artificial, que te hace darte cuenta de que no son personas de verdad. Además tengo que mencionar el empeño de Kojima darles nombres que oculten un "doble significado" que, lejos de ser profundo, me resulta bastante rídiculo y bochornoso. El personaje de Fragile repite durante todo el juego y hasta la saciedad una frase que debéis oír por vosotros mismos, porque yo no doy crédito de que el guionista (o quien sea responsable) le diese el visto bueno. El único personaje que creo que es muy bueno es el que interpreta Mads Mikkelsen y no lo detallaré para evitar spoilers.

    Lo que más me mola de Death Stranding es su ambietación. Tiene la capacidad de transmitirte la desesperanza que están viviendo en ese mundo y juega con conceptos muy interesantes, pero llevados de forma regular. Se nota mucho que el tito Koji quería meter un puntito de terror en el título y vaya que si lo consigue. Atravesar algunas zonas de EV ha sido para mí una de las experiencias más agobiantes que he vivido en un videojuego, aunque solo al principio del mismo, ya que la mecánica envejece muy rápido y al final se convierten en otro obstáculo más que sortear.

    Le he metido mucha caña por su historia, pero creo que Death Stranding es sin duda un buen juego y se nota mucho el cariño y empeño que le han puesto. No hay duda de que, guste o no, el título goza de una calidad que ya le gustaría tener a muchos otros videojuegos y te hace darle vueltas a ciertos temas que, con el COVID-19, están más presentes que nunca.

    Mezcla lo aburrido con lo entretenido.
    El tedio con la recompensa.
    Lo simple en complejo.
    Es una experiencia única. No es para todos los públicos, pero, eso de "walk simulator" no le hace justicia.

    Death stranding is not a walking simulator, its a message from Kojima himself, to keep being kind, stay connected and help the one needing it, we all walk through the obstacles and fight The mules in this game, but what Kojima intended was to show that we, at the end of the day are all the same and are all walking through the hard path.

    Either you will like it or you won't. Very unusual game. I had a lot of fun managing my cargo and making deliveries. I liked that it's a very story driven game. There are no "wrong choices" and the bosses are not hard. I found the dialogue between the characters very weak at times. The first three chapters are very long but then the pace picks up and you feel like your finally making some headway.

    Los mejores gráficos que puede ofrecer la generación actual, al nivel de títulos como God of War o Uncharted 4 y sin duda uno de los puntos más fuertes del videojuego, los paisajes son bellísimos y los modelados de los personajes son soberbios, muy realistas y bien animados y las locuras de Hideo Kojima nunca se plasmaron mejor en un videojuego.

    Sonido: 10
    +Como todo juego importante de Sony, tiene la opción de cambiar el idioma del audio del juego, puedes oir las voces en inglés, español latino, castellano, portugués y francés, aunque en lo personal prefiero las voces originales en inglés.
    +La música es soberbia, tanto las melodías instrumentales como las canciones que aparecen en el juego y ayudan mucho a acentuar esa sensación de soledad, de que queda mucho camino por recorrer.
    -El videojuego no te permite reproducir estas canciones a voluntad durante el juego y además te bloquea Spotify.

    Jugabilidad 7:
    Básicamente el juego se trata de que eres un repartidor cuyo deber consiste en unificar a lo que queda de Estados Unidos conectándolos a través de una red denominada "red quiral", además de que debes cumplir con entregas que son necesarias para la sobreviviencia de la población pues ahora la gente vive aislada en bunkers. Muchos pedidos consisten en entregas víveres, sangre, medicinas, arte, datos, etc.

    + Originalidad, jugar a DS es una experiencia nueva, tiene una gran cantidad de elementos novedosos y aunque al principio puede llegar a ser un poco enredoso por tener que aprender tantas mecánicas nuevas te acostumbras mientras vas realizando las entregas, además de que el juego en sí no es muy difícil. Otra posibilidad muy importante es la de cooperar con otros jugadores en línea compartiendo equipo, suministros y la posibilidad de construir estructuras como puentes y refugios.

    + El juego ofrece mucha libertad para llevar a cabo las misiones. Puedes crear tu propio equipo, armas, herramientas e incluso vehículos, así como decidir tu estrategia para cumplir con las entregas, la ruta que seguirás y el orden en el que realizarás las entregas.

    - Puede llegar a ser un poco repetitivo en algunas porciones. El juego tiene 14 capítulos y hay algunos que parece que no tienen fin como el capítulo #3 y otros son verdaderamente cortos como el #4.

    - Tiene detalles sin pulir. Las escenas de combate las debieron hacer más variadas, porque si son muy similares entre sí, sobre todo los combates contra los jefes se llevan a cabo de la misma manera todos sin agregar elementos que pudieran hacerlos distintos. Otro detalle que no me gustó es que con apretar L2+R2 resuelves todos los problemas que puedas tener con equilibrar al personaje y la carga. Otro detalle, aunque menor es que a veces me morí en el juego por detalles muy molestos como un enfrentamiento con un jefe en el cual me quedé atorado entre un camión y una pared y en algunas ocasiones los controles no respondieron a la velocidad que yo lo deseaba, sobre todo al utilizar las opciones de la cruceta.

    Historia: 10
    La mejor parte del juego, sin duda. DS posee una historia realmente original y es un logro no sólo como videojuego, sino como una obra de ciencia ficción. He leído clásicos del género como Yo Robot, Dune, Starship Troopers, 1984, Un mundo feliz, etc y Death Stranding está al nivel de esas obras y es algo muy meritorio por parte de Hideo Kojima, el materializar una obra de ciencia ficción tan original, con personajes tan entrañables, además de crear un mundo y por si fuera poco la historia es muy vasta, compleja, con mucho "lore" para enriquecerlo por medio de los datos de entrevistas y correos que vas desbloqueando al cumplir con la tarea de unificar a America y si además al título le agregamos esa capacidad de sorprender al jugador con las "fumadas" al estilo Hideo Kojima que en DS encuentras al por mayor, pues la experiencia de jugarlo vale muchísimo la pena.

    Conclusión:
    Death Stranding es mucho más que un simple videojuego, es una gran historia de ciencia ficción pero vale la pena experimentar si te gusta el género, ya sea en películas o en libros. Sin embargo tanta originalidad lo aleja de los canones actuales de los videojuegos hace que no sea para todos y el videojuego te gustará sí:

    + Te gusta el género de ciencia ficción
    + Eres fan de los trabajos de Hideo Kojima
    + No esperas un juego muy tradicional con acción al por mayor como con Uncharted o God of War.
    + Disposición para ser paciente un poco con el juego, aprender nuevas mecánicas de juego que se salen de lo tradicional y aceptar que algunas partes del mismo son un poco pesadas pero que hay que continuar porque el juego vale muchísimo la pena, sobre todo al final de la historia donde se revelan muchos secretos, y somos testigos de las mejores actuaciones que hayamos visto en la historia de los videojuegos.    … Expand

    Such a fresh, unique gaming experience. It is a slow burner which requires patience and the story requires an open mind. I can understand that simpletons and kids will not enjoy this because it is too slow for them, not enough action for them, they don’t understand what the game is about. I only recommend it to open-minded, conscious people who don’t have ADHD. Masterpiece.

    Gameplay serve o propósito da história, e quem compreendeu a história compreende o porquê.

Digamos que se concentra en el viaje entre A y B y no en lo que encontramos. en B que también es interesante. Planear todo es importante.

    Ahora despues de terminarlo: SIN SPOILER La historia es muy rara y profunda (como todas las de Hideo), hay que decirlo pero bueno se puede llegar a entender aunque bueno no es tan impresionante como esperaba. Eso si, estoy contento con el juego despues de acabarlo e incluso yo diria que despues de jugarlo es cuando te adaptas a las mecanicas y "descubres el juego".

    Death Stranding é uma caminhada solitária e reflexiva. Assim como a vida. Se você só assiste à filmes preguiçosos, não tem o costume de ler, quase nunca reflete sobre a vida e apenas vive em modo automático: fique longe deste game.

It is a game about deliveries from point A to point B, yes...but the gameplay is refined and the decisions made while going from point A to point B...what you are carrying, how to approach an objective, inventory management, and smooth controls make this game one of my favorites of all time!

Прохождение заняло у меня около 44 часов, за которые я выполнил только ОДНУ побочную миссию (и то, случайно, пока ещё не понял, что они не влияют на сюжет), и с появления мотоцикла практически не ходил пешком. Это нереально бодро играющийся симулятор курьера с кучей увлекательных механик (погрузчик-скейтборд, канаты, сама ходьба). Сюжет просто взорвал мне мозг, и я несколько дней не мог отойти, плохо спал, хотя подавался иногда просто отвратительно: я сейчас про 10-минутные катсцены с Хартмэном, который мне не импонировал ни секунды и про предпоследнюю главу, в которой нужно сидеть 20 минут на пляже, изредка бесцельно пробегаясь между нереально унылыми монологами сумасшедшей и невероятно скучной женщины в красном платье – я сейчас не шучу, она 20 минут без остановки говорит, и у вас нет возможности её не слушать, это самый настоящий симулятор женатого мужика. Что касается актёров: если Нормана Ридуса и Мадса я люблю и уважаю с Пушера и Ходячих, то Сейду и Маргарет мне прям люто не нравились до этой игры. В Нитях (Выходе) Смерти у обеих это лучшие роли за карьеру. Монстры просто великолепны. Боёвка и боссы офигительны. Злодеи (с голосом Джоэла) гениальны. Биби умилителен.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Death Stranding is a revolutionary out of this world breathtaking masterpiece!
    Game is very symbol, rich with details that kept my mind always at work trying so hard to grasp as many theories they keep throwing at me.
    The ideas in this game are so Grand, Big Bang, mysteries of life & death - I loved the way they used the extinction of dinosaurs & mammals and linked it to the game theme so easily.
    I will never understand how people got bored when the game always renews itself, shooting becomes possible all of a sudden – it included boss fights, and the adrenaline rush episodes made only for the terrorizing Clifford Unger.
    Main theme is obviously connection, and bringing people together especially while building roads and everyone contributes with little material they can spare to build for tomorrow as if it’s saying we can only live through tomorrow together and how people are as good as dead in isolation.
    The Game could be also about America’s predicament, how it was meant to be a land of freedom & dreams – now it is anything but.
    I think it’s based on realism – how one must make every effort brick by brick just like in the real world.
    The sci-fi elements of this game just blew my mind – TimeFall causing accelerated aging, cryptobytes, and thermonuclear weapons….

With that said it's definitely a one of a kind game. As Kojima himself put it this is the first "Strand Type" game. The gameplay revolves around the main character Sam "porter" Bridges (Norman Reedus) in a post apocalyptic world where Porters (delivery men) are humanities last connection to eachother and the only way to get vital supplies and resources in a world thats too dangerous or treachorous for your average person to undergo. In this world there are BT's (essentially ghost) that liter areas where timefall (rain that ages whatever it touches) pours down and turn the game into a stealthy crawl as you evade detection from these otherworldly human shadows that can only be seen while standing still. This provides areas of tension where you'd like to rush through as quick as possible to avoid damage to whatever packages you may be carrying but detection means you're in for a fight and will have to worry about being dragged off into a battle with a large enemy while losing your gear. This brings me to the combat which is by far the games weakest point. Thd combat against other humans ehich are rogue Porters crazed by packages or something like that basically they want your packages and will try to kill you with guns and various other weapons the catch is you can't kill them you can only knock them out because killing them would create more BT's and make your life harder. This makes the combat rather annoying as you only have limited options to deal with them dispite having access to handguns, assault rifles and even rocket launchers later in the game. This is helped a little by the addition of non-lethal weapons but thats not nearly as fun right. The BT's are far worse of an enemy though. They will often times be just small humans and upon detection you can use various weapons designed for taking them out but the only thing that works is grenades. This again makes combat feel terrible and makes you just want to be as stealthy as possible with 140kg of gear on your back. The story though is where this game really shines without giving any spoilers the cinimatics are top tier just like you'd expect in a Kojima game. If the gameplay doesn't keep you the story most certainly will. If the combat was better i'd give it a perfect score. I just wish they had a new game+ in it so i wouldn't lose all of my time consuming structures i built… Expand

    Hideo Kojima said this would be a genre defining experience and he wasn't wrong. Show me another game that comes close to being a 'pack marching simulator' and I'll bite my tongue.

Show me another game that comes close to being a 'pack marching simulator' and I'll bite my tongue.

    The story in Death Stranding is everything you would expect from Kojima. Confusing, convoluted and melodramatic. The whole plot centres around your character who acts as a courier while trying to link data system up from facility to facility in order to connect people together. All this amidst a world that has been devastated by a cataclysmic event that brought ghost like entities into our realm. That's probably the easiest way to describe the plot, anything beyond that dives into insanity territory. All I can say is, whether you end up loving or hating the overall plot, you can't say it's not original.

    The game-play is where this game gets a big thumbs up for me. It is a love it or hate it affair (just like the story), but if it's your bag, you'll be hooked in an instant. The game-play predominately consists of your character delivering packages from one place to the next. The challenge stems from how you get there. The multiple hazards along route, such as enemy 'MULES' trying to steal your gear, the 'BT' ghostly entities trying to stop your progress or the rainfall slowly destroying your cargo all pose a significant threat. However, I found the most enjoyable challenge was trying to navigate the terrain itself. This game does an amazing job of conveying how it feels to carry such a heavy weight over long distances (after spending 15 years in the army I can vouch). Once each order had been completed, I felt a great sense of relief over and over again. On top of all that, the game looks great and gives the overall experience an 'otherworldly' feel. Coupled with some great sound and a decent soundtrack, you have an overall atmosphere that's hard to match.

    I loved my run of this game. The cast and voice acting kept me engaged, even if the story was a bit too much to swallow. But the addictive nature of the game-play itself is why I stayed. In saying that, this won't be for everyone. If travelling in game for long periods of time put you off, maybe not for you. But if you are into an immersive atmospheric experience that is completely original, give it a crack for sure.    … Expand

    It's normal for some people to find the gameplay boring. But I enjoyed every second while playing and transporting cargo in snowy mountains and wide terrain. The story and characters are impressive.

    Like the great Picasso, Kojima has broken every rule in the book. Now, there was a time when Picasso's work was almost universally hated, until it wasn't. Some still hate it. But I don't think much of anyone really questions the man's ability. That said, I simply adore this game. I was worried when people said all you do is walk. I really feel like that is just a shallow statement. If youLike the great Picasso, Kojima has broken every rule in the book.

If you are looking for over the top action, don't look here. So much of travel isn't just walking as much as it is observing and managing. The terrain in and of itself is an enemy waiting to take you out. I find that fascinating and honestly exciting because the threat never really leaves. The stealth element of this game is great. I genuinely love that any death in this game can have a serious repercussion. It's just so far away from the norm. Reminds me of the glory days of a no kill MGS run. People will say what they will. This game is art in the purest sense. No true art has ever gone uncriticized. I'm glad this game exists, because it's a once in a lifetime experience.… Expand

    The emotional depth thanks to Kojima's storytelling and craziness makes for an awesome experience! Especially one of the most emotionally draining plot twists ever in video game history hits you in the face. However, the pacing especially over the mountain is tedious. Also the game is too easy - almost a masterpiece.

    Death Stranding stands tall as a well-crafted and unique piece of art. It's not the first game I'd choose if I was looking for some nonstop, fast-paced action, and I understand some people's gripes with that. But what it does present is an honest, thought provoking story combined with a endlessly beautiful landscape to explore.

But what it does present is an honest, thought provoking story combined with a endlessly beautiful landscape to explore. The atmosphere in this game is like no other, and many times throughout my playthrough I found myself sort of wandering around like I was in my own Denis Villeneuve film, admiring the vast and empty landscape. Death Stranding really made me feel a lot of different emotions. Every now and then a shiver would send down my spine, whether it be in amazement or fear. No matter how strange and "Kojima-esque" the narrative got, I was still completely engaged throughout. All of the actors' outstanding performances (a special "Bravo!" for my man, Norman Reedus) were complimented by an excellent script that truly provided an unforgettable video game experience. Although the boss fights were few and far between, every single one of them was hauntingly unique (the shots of the boss in the downtown battle are *chefs kiss*). The soundtrack is one of the best I've heard in a while, adding so much emotional weight to the story. Death Stranding is truly unlike any other video game you will play. For some people, that's a good thing, and for others it's not. You be the judge.

    I've being avoiding Death Stranding since its release due to its mild reception. I'm playing it now and near the end, and I'm having such a great time with it. It's definetely meant for a niche audience, but that's okay.

    Death stranding is a game it will not be for every body, i dont say it in a way " uhhh you are not smart " or anything like that, if you like the game, it will be a 10 for you, but if you dislike it, it will be a 0, theres no middle ground, because the game is good, but the mechanics are not for everybody

    So finally gave this a go and was very pleasantly surprised. Its definately not just a delivery boy simulator its so much more. Building, exploration, strategy and also some very well done fighting. The story is also superb and I enjoyed all of it from start to finish.

    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.
