    Good graphics and soundtrack but the story is overly pretentious and the overly long slow cutscenes take away control from the player too often and for too long. I have been playing for 15 hours trying to rush to Ch. 3 but it's just too boring and buggy

    The people parading this game around as a walking simulator, are really just proclaiming their attention spans are so low they need constant explosions and killing in their games to stay hooked. Death Stranding proves AAA games do not need to be focused on violence and can attempt to do new unique things at the same time.

    A Brilliant atmospheric masterpiece. Take your time with it. If you love exploration games, you'll love Death Stranding.    … Expand

    Tudo o que se faz no jogo é andar e andar, ritmo muito lento e pouco desafiador.
    Focaram tanto nos atores que deixaram a desejar no gameplay. Quase consegue ser pior que Days Gone.

    O melhor game que joguei este ano até o momento. Não terminei o game pois o lançamento dele foi ontem, e só joguei 8 horas do game e estou encantado. Como a galera pode dar nota baixa se foi lançado ontem? Esse site deveria ter uma forma de dedectar pessoas mau intencionadas para prejudicar as vendas de um game, por outros gostar de outra plataforma e nem ter jogado o game.

    Definitely the most dissapointing game to have been released on the PS4. At a fundamental level the gameplay is trash. The story is trash. The narrative is trash. The nearly 10 hrs of cutscenes are pretensious trash. It is a fetch question simulator with absolutely mind-numbingly boring gameplay. Stay away from this mountain of garbage,

    I got more than 20 hours now and Im in chapter 3. The delivery topic which other reviewers seen in a bad way is of course a main characteristic on the game, but: the faster you move forward with the story, the easier this will be. So don’t waste all time in the 1st area and leave with the ship as you get the offer.

    What I really like a lot, is the way the multiplayer working this game. Instead of putting all gamers in a overfilled world, you can participate in the buildings they made and build streets and bridges together with materials everyone spend. It’s such a great pleasure to run through an rough terrain and find ladders, ropes and bridges other players left for you.

    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. The vehicle physics are last gen. I would recommend watching a YouTube movie of this game if the story interests you, but the time sink involved to know it is not worth it.

    Every time you got a new package to deliver and then you see the distance, weather and that you cannot go there with a vehicle you start planning your routes and trying to take the most quantity of weapons and climbing tools but also to go as lighter as possible (so you are less likely to fall and damage your packages or exhaust Sam completely before reaching your destination AND RETURN), this is a game for someone who likes to take it slow and plan stuff carefully.
    The satisfaction of delivering a package that took you a hard, long and risky walk is really good.
    It took me a while figuring out the menu, due to all the info in it, but once I did ist pretty easy to understand.

The community theorize over and over up until release day. If you watched a film based on a book and loved it... youd probably want to buy the book to fully be immersed in the narrative. The trailers and theories for me are the film. The Game is the book. I can only hope for a VOL. 2. If you are blind to the game... have no idea about any of it.... then you'll probably most likely not fully enjoy it the way I have. It can take about 5-6 hours of a linear approach to really get going. After that.... The world will be yours to explore, alone, but connected. Maybe even to me. :)… Expand

    So i love this game! It's not a traditional "game" that's for sure. The story is incredibly engaging, and mysterious in a way you'll want more and more. It definitely pushes the boundaries of what games and gaming actually is. 100% it's not a run and gun action game. It's definitely more adventure platformer, but even those genres are hard to describe this game.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Just yesterday, the game went through (it took 30 hours to complete) and after passing the game I can say one thing, bravo. For me personally, this is one of the best games of the year on a par with sekiro shadows die twice, I frankly do not understand how you can cheat the game and put units, it seems that people who dirty the game did not play even 10 or even 5 hours into it. Calling a game a walking simulator is like calling every modern duck shoot shooter, according to such stupid logic, you can call mario a walking simulator or the legend of zelda breath of the wild (which I also went through and consider a **** game, but there’s no less than walking in Zelda). It is ironic that a game in which the main idea is a union of people has ruined the gaming community into two warring camps. The plot of the game is a vivid example of how the author of the game correctly arranges Chekhov’s guns and at the right moment they all shoot and you get a complete and complete story, thanks to the creators of the game for sitting at the end with his mouth agape and saying, “So it was like that, oh No. @ " The game’s gameplay is normal, not perfect but normal, there are jambs in the form of long animations during the transition to the stealth with BT, but these are such trifles that I don’t want to pay special attention to, it didn’t distort me personally, but other players might not like it, in other elements, the game is a gun (graphics, music, atmosphere, production, technical performance) for a minute this is a game where there are no lootboxes, donat, grind, and "Save Time". Objectively, this game is not perfect like all games, and if there were no such wars and biased throwing **** in the game, I would put 8.5 or 9 points, but since I am a person and everything in our world is subjective, I will put game 10 like this I want to support the game that gave me such strong emotions and made me think about the connections, people close to me, time, death, a person’s place in our world, and for this I can say one thing, thanks !!

    Death Stranding is the first ever "Strand" type game, and I hope it's the last Strand type game because this game has possibly the worst gameplay of all time.

    First i'd like to say that this game tries so hard to make your progression as tedious and annoying as possible. It throws the tiniest thing at you, punishes you for no reason other than adding in almost fake difficulty just to slow down your playtime. Not only that, but a lot of the physics are really clunky, and the BTs as they're called were interesting for their first reveal, but then they just come off as another addition to the mentioned annoying systems.

    This isn't to say that Walking Simulators are boring or bad. The Stanley Parable was really fun and enjoyable, but imagine if that game just suddenly kept throwing objects at you every 10 seconds to stun your vision, or block out it's narrator with a ton of loud noises. That's what Death Stranding does for it's whole Delivering Packages shtick.

    The story is pretty eh. I think it lacks any real hooks or OOMPHs to get you involved, other than that it does have some good moments, and the actors are great too, but we gotta talk about the writing for a second. Fragile(one of the main characters) has a lot of the most cheesy and one dimensionally stupid lines i've ever read. "I'm fragile but not that fragile." is something a middle school student would write in their rough draft of a "About me" paper. If you're not one for long winded cutscenes, you'll also want to stay away cause everyone in this game likes to take up a lot of your time.

    The idea of vehicles, structures, ladders, and other items left behind players is pretty cool. I wish I could meet other players though, but for what it has, it's pretty nice to know you're not alone in the game.

    Overall it's a 3/10. This game is pretty painful to play, and I would definitely recommend a lot of other games than this one. But this review isn't over yet. I wanna go over some of the other things surrounding Death Stranding.

    Kojima said that the reason American players don't really like Death Stranding is because we prefer FPS games, and that we're having trouble understanding it. I think this is just a poor perspective to take on the situation, and is just a blatant attempt to dismiss our criticisms because it's actually just a really damn boring game.    … Expand

    Definitely the best game I have played in YEARS. Can highly recommend anyone to play it, and I'll promise you wont regret it. The systems of the game are just so motivating, it literally never gets boring in 50+ hours of playtime.

    The mood, the cutscenes, the exploring is fantastic, you can argue about the gameplay, but I'm enjoying it A LOT, especially in the later chapters, where you have a lot freedom at how you approach things. I find myself helping others more, than playing the actual story knowing that you help newer players if you build a street etc. Is very satisfying, and you keep wanna help your fellow travelers trough the harsh journey.

    Most user scores make me really sad, because it's clear they either havent played the game trough chapter 3, or simply dont understand what this game is about.

    If you want a unique experience, give this game a try, force yourself trough the first chapters, and get rewarded with what the game ACTUALLY has to offer.    … Expand

    Вообще Кодзиму стоит похвалить за то что он не зассал и выпустил игру с подобным геймплеем в конце 2019.
    Если говорить о самой игре, то в ней на самом деле много всего, но это много всего открывается развивая сюжетную линию. Сам сюжет в принципе не представляет из себя что-то необычное и новое. Заставки и ролики выглядят просто божественно, постановка на уровне голливуда (честно), (я особо не смотрю кинематограф). Так-же в игре существует онлайн составляющая, которая выполнения лучше, чем я себе представлял. Онлайн в death stranding важная составляющая, где ты можешь помогать другим игрокам, так и другие игроки могут тебе помогать.

No. Walking simulators hay muchos, juegos interactivos también y la misión de recadero la tienes en cualquier MMORPG o RPG al uso.

The world built by Kojima is among the most interesting and astonishing ever seen thanks to its unique lore and a stunning art direction coadiuvated by the best graphics ever seen in a console game. All of this gets even more immersive thanks to an emotional and transcendent soundtrack.
    The narrative is captivating and the plot is very complex but most of the cryptic elements are explained by the end of the story. Some of the characters are just unforgettable and the acting quality is overall amazing.
    Gameplay could result boring and monotonous if you are the kind of player who is looking for a traditional gaming experience filled with action and dynamism. It has this indie-like attitude that is very far from triple A games standard. The main mechanic is walking, so most of the engagement is given by losing yourself in the incredible atmosphere of the surroundings you got to explore and feeling that sense of travelling which Kojima has managed to recreate almost perfectly.
    It's actually true that the game loop is extremely repetitive, all the quests are going from A to B but the amazing thing is that even if I was aware of this, I never felt like I was wasting time because I was so completely absorbed. Furthermore, there's the asynchronous multiplayer and the like system which I found to be a great idea because having the chance of helping other players and be thanked for it is very rewarding. There is also some action but combat and shooting system feels a bit too simplified and not that fun, in fact during my playthrough I always preferred to avoid fights while I enjoyed stealth phases. The worst thing is the boss fight design, which is the only issue I can't forgive. Most of them are banal and too similar one to each other and even the most important ones are just disappointing. They totally lack of the cleverness that MGS boss fights had and it looks like Kojima just got lazy. Death Stranding is like a poetry or a painting but in the shape of a videogame, not everyone will appreciate it or even understand it, but it's undeniable that this is the kind of work which videogames as a medium need to be considered more than just digital entertainment. It's the kind of game that raise videogames from mere diversion to art.    … Expand

Kojima doesn't deserve the reputation that he tries to get from this game and it's a shame that he spend so much money creating a game in which you just walk, with a very weak story and I was so frustrated to see sooo many cinematics, which some could last for 20 minutes....

Every single cinematic is having big annoying "emotional" pauses, which should most likely should make you feel something, but I am not playing computer games in order to wait something to happen. Real life is boring enough and has enough waiting for something to happen. I don't know how much free time you need to have in order to pass through 40 hours of cinematic and nothing happening in this game. For me, this game would be much better if it has instead of 4 difficulties, 2 story modes: short which would give player some quicker narrative and would remove 80% of scenes which are showing and saying nothing and original, which will keep the whole experience, for people who want to to watch at monitor 25 minutes and do nothing with controller. In the end I never know which cinematic should be skipped and which one would say finally something interesting, which will expose some lore instead of watching Norman Ridus face and his expressions. I would even say that boring gameplay could be more bearable if it wasn't followed by boring cinematic. To be honest the only reason to give it higher score is because for the past two months we really receive just boring and stupid games. Like people already forget that GAMEPLAY should result in doing something and testing your skills, not pressing L3 + R3 in order to balance like you are playing mobile game and tapping at its screen.… Expand

I love weird things and I thought I would love this "game" too; though I like weird I don't like random, for me weird does not equal random and this "game" is more random than weird. The reason I have the word "game" in quotation is that this is not a game. A game by definition is an activity that one engages in for amusement or fun. The gameplay of this is not fun or amusing. It's frustrating and boring. And I get this was done intentionally so you have to think about walking as a mechanic (which reminds me of Manual Samuel) and when you do eventually build things or use others' you are rewarded with a sense of community. But I think that sense of community comes from false pretences. The game is dull and senseless and the community forms from mutual dissatisfaction in an effort to make things better. For me artificial problems like this don't evolve into that sense of community. This game might be for you but it's not for me.

    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".

    All of the minutiae aside, this game is a novel and genuine experience that is well worth having.

    Tedious game with very poor game design and is a bore to play. I would avoid this game like a plaque.

    Extremely boring game with mediocre story and characters. Walking simulator that is hyped up to unimaginable levels.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Bastante malo en muchos aspectos, mediocre en otros.
    Un juego super fácil, repetitivo a más no poder, con una IA increíblemente mala, una historia absurda donde a cada rato ocurren cosas estúpidas porque si. Se nota inspiración en el concepto pero muy mal trabajado a partir de eso. Los únicos apartados donde realmente destaca son en lo visual y sonoro.
    Es un juego que solo los fans de kojima pueden disfrutar, no se lo recomendaría a nadie más . Los personajes tienen nombres escritos por niños de 6 años, las cinemáticas son extremadamente largas.
    Algo destacable son las actuaciones, pero se ven empañadas cuando de repente te ponen al protagonista corriendo con una sonrisa por la playa en cámara lenta al estilo guardianes de la bahía o un combate estilo mortal kombat, con las barras de vida del protagonista y su enemigo, pero con un Gameplay desastroso, o ver a del toro bebé, etc
    En fin, un disparate que no merece el dinero de la gente, si buscan un buen juego, vean a otro lado, acá solo encontrarán horas de película.    … Expand

    Una buena propuesta, pero sin tener una mecanica a prueba de diversion. Le falta madurez a la jugabilidad

    Most boring game of all time. Terrible walking simulator. This game is proof that gameplay in a video game is important. Huge waste of time

    The Real Star of this Game is Yoji Shinkawa! I really thought we are going to see Ludens, the Moon and the five flying things but nothing of them is in the game.

    Story is OK but nothing special compared with mgs. Gameplay is boring I can't understand how he gets from stealth to walking and delivering its so annoying after 8 hours of hard work I want some fun Gameplay like in Mgs but    The Real Star of this Game is Yoji Shinkawa!

    Finally finished the game after 50 or so hours and wow what a ride. At first the game didn't really clicked on me and there are even times that I got bored to death with it, but even a lot of reviewers said that these is one of the type of games that will really took a long2x while to be good and guess what it did.

As to avoid spoilers I will just put my pros and cons after finally finishing the game.

    Pros
    >Eventhough people saying this game is a glorified walking simulator the game does feel fresh, unique, and a bit different from the typical triple a open world games devs like to churn out every year with the same formula.
    >Characters, story, and the lore are pretty amazing and also really deep.
    >The actors are perfect for their roles.
    >Interactions with other players was really fun especially building stuffs to aid yourself and them as well.
    >Play the game whatever the way you want. You can kill or avoid every enemies all together.

    Cons
    >Like I said this is a very slow burn game and wouldn't even take off at 30 or so hours so you'll either like or hate it.
    >Missions are consist of the usual delivery this deliver that from point a to point b, yeah there is collect and timed missions but other than that there's barely any variety. Also some rewards aren't really worth the long walk.
    >Disappointed that Bt's and mules aren't really a threat but more of an annoyance and you can go rambo on an army if you have the firepower.
    >Bosses are easy as hell, even the final bosses are pretty easy and doesn't really require strategy to defeat.
    >Terrains and physics can be really inconsistent at times.
    >The damn truck. I hate it!
    >Ui can be confusing at times and a lot of stuffs can be missed out if you don't bother reading the games manual.    … Expand

    I saw Death Stranding coming from a mile away back when I played MGS5. MGS5 had all the warning signs: the repetitive fetch quests; the laborious (often meaningless) trekking across featureless, uninteresting landscapes; the overwrought, cartoonish plot, but MGS5 still had amazing game play. My biggest gripe about Death Stranding is I didn't always find it very enjoyable. Sometimes, theI saw Death Stranding coming from a mile away back when I played MGS5.

My biggest gripe about Death Stranding is I didn't always find it very enjoyable. Sometimes, the game took me off my feet, and the BTs and the story and setting were top-notch, thoroughly developed, and very interesting, but the game often lapsed into repetitive tedium that made me dread coming back to it. By the time I had reached the last area, I had moved on to playing The Outer Worlds.
    ----------------------------------------------------
    I think Death Stranding is quite the experience, and I'm glad it exists as a game. The soundtrack and voice acting and some of the scenes were just breathtaking, but I don't know if I would call it a totally enjoyable experience. If you like Hideo Kojima's games, this is a good one, but the hype around this one is a classic case of the industry propping itself up because it had nothing better to offer.    … Expand

    This game is just disrespectful. Kojima really showed us that he can do anything and still sell the game

    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.
