    Also nach nun 89 Std Spielzeit und im Kapitel 8 kann ich sagen das ich dieses Spiel liebe.
    Nicht nur die düstere Welt und die Angst ob der nächste Regen auch GDs bedeutet auch die schönen Seiten wenn es aufklart die Sonne auftaucht und man Meilenweit sehen kann.
    Ja man hat einen eintönigen Job. Bringe x Pakete von A nach B oder berge sie. Aber das macht man doch in so ziemlich jedem Spiel.    Also nach nun 89 Std Spielzeit und im Kapitel 8 kann ich sagen das ich dieses Spiel liebe.
    Nicht nur die düstere Welt und die Angst ob der nächste Regen auch GDs bedeutet auch die schönen Seiten wenn es aufklart die Sonne auftaucht und man Meilenweit sehen kann.
    Ja man hat einen eintönigen Job. Bringe x Pakete von A nach B oder berge sie. Aber das macht man doch in so ziemlich jedem Spiel. Nur das man hier kein unendliches Taschenvolumen hat. Man merkt Sam an das er es eintönig findet.aber genau das ist es. Planen was man wie wo hinbringen kann. Benutzt man eher den Truck oder doch die Seilbahn?
    Und da kommt der nächste Zeitfresser Strassen bauen und ein vernünftiges Seilbahnnetz zu planen und umzusetzen. Die Hauptstory verfolge ich nur nebenbei...die ganzen Prepper und ihre Geschichten sind echt klasse.
    Das BB wächst einem schnell ans Herz.
    Viele kleine Gimiks, lustiges, erstaunliches oder gar tief ergreifendes an jeder Ecke.
    Ein Zeitfresser ist das Spiel allemal...man versinkt quasi in der Welt und muss aufpassen das man noch genügend Schlaf für den nächsten Arbeitstag bekommt.

    Grob gesagt das Spiel ist eintönig...aber nur oberflächlich betrachtet. Jede Lieferung gibt einen Sinn. Jeder Charakter hat seine Geschichte. Jeder Gegner kann eine Herausforderung sein.
    Man lernt schnell besondere Gebiete auszuweichen um die Fracht möglichst schnell und unbeschadet zum Ziel zu bringen. Ein kleiner Umweg kann ein effektiver Weg sein.
    Ich war skeptisch und am Anfang des Spiels auch etwas enttäuscht. Aber das legte sich mit jedem erfolgreichen Abschluss eines Auftrags.

    Entweder man mag es oder nicht.
    Ich finde es schade wenn man nur stupide der Story folgt und vieles Wissen über die Welt verpasst.
    Danke Kojima für dieses tolle Meisterwerk und einmal Abwechslung von den heutigen Trends.

    Amazing game. Don't listen to the people giving it bad scores, they have either only played a few hours of the game or haven't played it at all.

    My advice, give it roughly around 8 hours to 10 hours to see if you will like it as the game picks up dramatically around that point

    Después de haber jugado 65 horas y haberme terminado la historia del juego, puedo decir lo que pienso del juego. No como muchísimas personas que lo están criticando sin haberlo ni olido o justamente lo contrario. De hecho voy a seguir jugándolo.

    Mundo abierto con gráficos preciosos y ambiente bonito y a la vez aterrador, no hace falta que haya nada más porque solamente estás tú, los EV y las mulas, es un mundo entre apocalíptico y post apocalíptico. La OST es una maravilla, música y canciones muy bonitas, hacen que en el juego te sientas esperanzado en momentos difíciles.
    La historia y los personajes me han encantado, aunque hay partes de la historia (soy muy cinefila/seriefila) que para mí fueron previsibles.
    A la hora de jugar me ha gustado mucho el tener que repartir “los paquetes” ,es todo un reto y si de verdad te metes en la historia y en tú personaje lo vas a disfrutar.
    También me ha gustado mucho el sistema en línea con los Likes y la ayuda que te pueden aportar otros jugadores durante el juego.
    Puedo entender que haya muchas personas a las que no le guste éste tipo de juego, pero por favor, respetad lo que piensen otros jugadores.
    En mi parecer el juego es una obra maestra. Muchas gracias Kojima!!    … Expand

    Hey guys, Video Hajimbo here to talk about the best game ever made! I had such a good time on this game made by certified video game Auteur™ Hideo Kojima (which I am not). I particularly liked how he (not me) created a whole new genre of game with systems never before seen. For example, an asynchronous multiplayer, which has never been done by any game before ever, and I (and I'm sureHey guys, Video Hajimbo here to talk about the best game ever made! I had such a good time on this game made by certified video game Auteur™ Hideo Kojima (which I am not). I particularly liked how he (not me) created a whole new genre of game with systems never before seen. For example, an asynchronous multiplayer, which has never been done by any game before ever, and I (and I'm sure Kojima too, but there's no way of telling, for I - Video Hajimbo- have never met him, or have ever spoken to him) have personally checked every game to make sure that it's definitely new and original, and what can I say! It's as fresh as an onion!

    As for the actual gameplay, I hear some people just aren't finding it entertaining, and to be honest, I have to disagree. I find it rather disconcerting that they're saying it doesn't have enough action really. Something that every review has said as the sole reason for why they've given it less than a 9/10. I myself (and not Kojima, who I might add is an arthouse developer) find it extremely engaging. I come home from a hard days work paint moisture surveying for Dulux, and turn this on, and I'm instantly absorbed and find it far more engaging, although, I must say, elements of it remind me of my job, and in such moments, I would like to personally thank Kojima- and not myself- for creating such a real and tangible world that so many people (like myself, a person not even related to the unmatched genius that is director of Death Stranding- Hideo Kojima) can relate to.

    Another one of my favourite things about this game (and any Kojima game, that is to say, games made by a person who isn't me) is how subtle the storytelling is. There's such nuance to everything Kojima does. I for example had no idea that the game (despite being in the future and not having been written by me) was in fact based on modern day America, and how it's split apart. This is because the game is so nuanced and not obvious, and yet so deep.

    Finally, (another note on storytelling) I do of course have to mention the cutscenes. I see a lot of reviews complaining about the quantity and length of the cutscenes. Many have even pointed out that the basis of good storytelling in games comes from showing, not telling. I would completely disagree. In fact, I would go as far as to say that I find these comments hurtful on a deeply personal level, not that it offends me of course, as I am not the creator, that is another man who isn't me. I would say that Death Stranding employs an objectively perfect form of storytelling that makes sure every viewer is able to keep up with the incredibly powerful mind of Hideo Kojima, who I might add has an incredibly high IQ, and once received a gold star for a painting he did in Kindergarten.

    To sum it up, I would say Death Stranding is the best game ever made. It's objectively perfect in every way. It has perfect graphics, perfect sound design, perfect music (even though that wasn't all created by Hideo Kojima by himself), perfect gameplay that isn't boring, perfection of genre, as this is a new genre, and not a walking simulator, and a perfect story, with a perfect balance of cutscenes to gameplay (which is actual gameplay, and not just balancing while walking). The only improvement I'd make is to include more cutscenes. Something I would request from Hideo Kojima, if I, Midamo Kalimba was able to speak to this incredible, and not rude man.    … Expand

However, this game turned out to be no better than any other trash that came out since I mostly left gaming behind (5-6 years ago). Of course, any other 'brilliant' Sony exclusive deserves the very same '0', same as almost any other AAA game of the past decade. It's all the same formula, a bunch of low-end movies mixed with some primitive rudimentary gaming mechanic, sorta tetris (although it's an insult to tetris to say so). No creativity whatsoever, just creation of nonsense for the sake of a quick buck. Gaming industry is beyond repair, only maybe the development of 'real' VR can save it, although in that case it won't be gaming industry anymore, more like virtual reality industry.

    So yeah, any other game that came out since 2010 deserves no less criticism than Death Stranding (looking at you guys, those who praised all the crap before DS, but decided to treat DS fairly). BUT, it's difficult to recall any other game, which had such a misleading marketing campaign. Sony and KojiPro deliberately created misleading trailers, artificially raised hype, and misinformed gamers during the interviews and presentations. And that's why DS is getting so much hate. Even though crap like Horizon: Zero Dawn, God of War 4, New Spider-Man, Last of US and all the other rubbish movies masked as games are definitely no better and probably even worse than DS, they didn't get nearly as much hate because their developers and marketers didn't misrepresent their creations and didn't create excessive hype or unnecessary mystery.

    Too bad my dream game turned out to be no better than all the trash that made me lose interest in gaming in the first place. I guess I'll probably never return to gaming then, not until VR becomes decent enough at least. Don't waste your money on all the trash that's been coming out during the past decade and is going to come out in the near future, guys. Don't help to continue killing the gaming industry by financially supporting irresponsible devs and publishers. Even though this industry is already pretty much dead anyway...    … Expand

Cuando mirad el juego como a cualquier otro juego, mapa grandísimo, ir de punto A a punto B, en alguno juegos matando maquinas, en otros persiguiendo a alguien y en este repartiendo mercancía muy importante en un mundo post apocalíptico te das cuenta que al final no se diferencia de otros juegos que siempre te gustaron y empiezas a perder el miedo y a centrarte en la historia, la cual hasta el momento pinta muy bien. Merece la pena jugarlo.

Es un juego muy largo, de los juegos con historia más largos que haya jugado nunca, el juego parece que termina (con créditos y todo) y continúa varias horas más hasta el verdadero final.

Kojima ha creado algo críptico, un título que en mi experiencia tras jugarlo unas horas aún me tiene con varias dudas, pero a la expectativa de lo que viene.

    El título nos habla sobre la gran profundidad de la vida y la muerte, su unión y nexo del ser humano con sus virtudes y sus defectos con el mundo que lo rodea, lo ético, lo moral, en una visión dónde la ciencia, la tecnología, la filosofía incluso la física cuántica tienen una fuerte conexión a pesar de no tener la misma ideología.

    ¿Es un mundo abierto? Sin duda, con diferentes posibilidades y aunque parezca muerto tiene muchas cosas interesantes que te darán horas de entretenimiento, que van desde la gestión de tus recursos para atravesar el Estados Unidos post Apocalíptico, optar entre el sigilo o la acción cuando nos encontramos con las personas que no quieren que el mundo vuelva a ser lo de antes.

    Tendremos que elegir entre matar o no matar ya que en algunos casos esto tendrá graves consecuencias.La interfaz del juego presenta algunas carencias pero que se notan poco por las diferentes herramientas que dispondremos que nos ayudarán en nuestros viajes y que como toda interfaz compleja se va tener que ir aprendiendo poco a poco, ya que aprender bien todo el abanico del que disponemos se le debe de dar un buen tiempo.

    El motor de Guerrilla Games, el Décima Engine, fue muy bien utilizado, dándonos una joya gráfica, algo sobresaliente en las texturas, brillos y los componentes técnicos.
    El OST del título está magistralmente implementado donde cada pista tiene conexión con lo que estamos viviendo dentro del título.

    Habrá un objeto importante y vital en el juego y una empresa que trata de reconectar al mundo para volver a empezar de cero.

    Todas las zonas de acción están bien implementadas y que interactúa muy bien con el terreno que ocupa, además de que el clima será parte importante a la hora de gestionar nuestro equipamiento e incluso la parte del equilibrio del equipaje. Todo en el juego encaja perfectamente y no hay nada que sobre. No nos podemos olvidar de las armas no letales que serán de vital importancia en el combate, salvo que nos encontremos con unos entes invisibles que no nos lo pondrán nada fácil.

    Un punto muy interesante en el título Death Stranding es su participación Online, el cual nos conectará en ciertos puntos donde podemos interactuar y no sólo usar lo que otros usuarios han podido crear espacios para que nuestro viaje sea más ameno, si no que también nos invita a ser parte de esta comunidad dando varias mejoras desde exoesqueletos, estaciones de recarga, refugios y estructuras complejas para cada material. Por supuesto, el crafteo será una constante en la aventura y no solamente tendremos historia y misiones secundarias, sino otras posibilidades y varias sorpresas.

    Los Likes y las personas con las cuales conectamos, e incluso aquellas que nos siguen o seguimos, hacen de éste, un sistema complejo pero muy útil en el desarrollo del título.

    Muchos creen que el título va de ir del punto A al punto B, un grave error, ya que más allá de hacer las misiones de la historia, cada cosa, objeto, acción, cada personaje, tiene una influencia al azar en cada usuario, debo enfatizar el Azar. Un modo de juego varía el desarrollo de toda la trama de un usuario a otro, eso sí, el argumento principal, tiene cosas intocables y muy profundas como bien comentábamos, pero también tendremos plena libertad para enfocar cada situación de manera diferente.

    El sistema de combate es muy simple y esto se puede deber a que realmente casi no lo usaremos, salvo cuando entremos a ciertos campamentos o nos topemos con los entes llamados EV's, lo cierto es que habrá grandes consecuencias si llegamos a fallar, sin duda alguno que otro fallará, Death Stranding no es un MGS en cuestión de lucha, flojea en ese aspecto pero porque su fortaleza esta en los otros aspectos, por ejemplo el de Crafteo.

    Otro punto fuerte del juego y es algo a lo que ya nos tiene acostumbrados Hideo Kojima es su historia, a pesar de tener cinemáticas largas, todo es espectacular, como dije al principio, tal vez no entiendas ni jota, pero conforme avanzas y descubres de que va, te va dejando con ganas de ir sabiendo más y más.

    Algunas zonas, amplios, vastos y numerosos terrenos o parajes, se hacen un poco tediosos si no estamos preparados, y otros parajes recónditos, vacíos de vida, que es lo normal, pero todo está bien balanceado.

    La jugabilidad es exuberante y es fluida, pero todo, y vuelvo a repetir, todo, absolutamente todo, importa en el juego, hasta el peso, la naturaleza, el clima, la persona, etcétera...

    El mensaje está claro y el EQUILIBRIO, la SOCIEDAD y el DESTINO DE LA HUMANIDAD, depende de nosotros principalmente ¿O QUIZÁS NO ES ASÍ?    … Expand

    Everybody is **** on the gameplay, just because they think it's repetitive. But in what action game do you do anything different that's not repetitive? It's a stupid conclusion, and you shouldn't judge the game by watching gameplay footage.
    Gameplay: It is way deeper than what the game shows, most tricks you can find out by experimenting with it. Reconnecting with people is rewarding, you feel good about yourself when you see your ranking go up. The game has different mechanics for traversal / rest / helping other players. Traversal can be hard with the vehicles, you can get stuck on every little rock, so I prefered running to my destination. Combat with humans is fun, not that deep but combat is not the point of the game. BT's can be a pain in the ass, but when you get weapons later, you can easily get rid of them. Players will help with there buildings and ladders and bridges, and you can help others too. Your buildings will appear in other's game.
    Story: Without spoiling anything, this game will make you think about our future, the world, and its people. I completed the game in 36 hours, and I'm gonna continue it, because it is fun!
    I recommend it to people, who loves thought-provoking stories, and doesn't mind a somewhat clunky but really fun gameplay!    … Expand

All that is new is strange ... it is thought, however, that one can take the hat off of something created by master Kojima, because in 2019 it allowed us to know im different style in games, a different survival experience on the field and a splendid story that will captivate us more and more along the journey of more than 50 hours. The game is not for everyone, such as racing games, action games, simulator games, horror games, anime games and more. The gameplay is good, recreates well the simulation and the balance of the human being and the earth and makes us look at each order, tools to aid the journey very carefully. Now for those who like and value survival, Open World and a new experience? It's worth a lot but very worth it Finally, if the game has action? It has a lot. By the way try wondering if ... if you were in Sam's skin, and if you were the best to make deliveries and aim to connect the world without getting hurt, projecting the goods without being captured by bad people or dead EP's, you would perform in the field. like? Running like crazy? Trying to kill / hit the bad guys who are many and live in highly protected camps? And as for the Ep's in a real situation, what would they do ... hidden and scared certainly. In death stranding there are no "heroes" here we have to behave just as if we were there because it determines our success or death.

    REAL REVIEW:
    I have a feeling that some of the reviews here (both good and bad) are from people who have not played the game and either unconditionally hate it or unconditionally love it. For example, I can spy a few user reviews of Hideo Kojima followers who spend most of their review slating the bad ones. This is also true for bad reviews, they are following the DIVISIVE hype train and    REAL REVIEW:
    I have a feeling that some of the reviews here (both good and bad) are from people who have not played the game and either unconditionally hate it or unconditionally love it. For example, I can spy a few user reviews of Hideo Kojima followers who spend most of their review slating the bad ones. This is also true for bad reviews, they are following the DIVISIVE hype train and slating the game without any knowledge of what it actually is.

    First off, everyone is open to opinions. People are allowed to love and hate this high budget and very high profile release. I find it very unfair to developers and potential suiters to this game that people review bomb it for whatever reason. I can understand why this game can be viewed as BORING and DULL, and people are allowed to have that opinion! - I absolutely despise Overwatch, Fortnite and Apex - I believe they are dull and boring!

    Now that's out of the way - lets settle another issue - I am not a huge Hideo Kojima fan - yes I think his vision has no rival (I'm not saying his vision cannot be trumped, i'm saying the style of his vision has no rival). I am a huge fan of the metal gear series (did not buy survive), didn't like Zone of the Enders very much.

    So without further delay, here is my honest and personal review of this unique piece of art.

    When I booted up the game and saw the intro cutscene and to find a beautiful transition to actual gameplay which felt seamless, I was blown away by the beauty of its visual design and sheer attention to detail. I was also VERY confused, but I found myself itching to know more about the mysterious world of death stranding - I was already deeply (but not blindly) drawn into the game.

    The moment of the first BT encounter, the shivers down my spine and my hairs standing on end mimicking Sam's reaction to them (this is reflected in every BT encounter - I almost hold my breath in real life with the character)! Then the first score kicks in as you are walking, this is a highlight of the game and it is implemented to perfection, I could not make an argument about the quality of creative vision the developers had for this game. For visuals, audio and graphics design, this game is a top tier 10/10 - the best visuals on ps4 to date.

    But I had yet to be won over with gameplay! Sure I walked to central knot city - but this was not enough yet to captivate me. When you get sent out into the free world and make your way up and down the mountains taking on what deliveries you can, and absorbing and embodying the meaning of each and every delivery. This is when you realise the meaning of the gameplay, and this is when you start to get excited about crossing every obstacle and just exploring the world, AND most importantly connecting the broken and isolated people. This game makes you appreciate the connections to people, the positive atmosphere of making people feel connected is amazing. From hearing a reply to your voice from other players who make indentations in your gaming world, to finding a sign that tells you not to give up, just when you think you may have to ditch all of your precious cargo. Encounters with BT's are never tiresome and always make you stop and think. MULES who are crazed porters who want your cargo, chase you relentlessly (but never into BT zones). The gameplay is beautiful.

    The story is as amazing and immersing as it is daunting and confusing. You find your self itching to know more about the world, the events which have transpired AND the progression of the characters you feel an odd connection with. The actor performances here are truly stunning.

    At first glance, you think the gameplay is so disconnected from the story and the actual world. But when you actually play it, once you make a few deliveries and listen to what the story the world has to tell. You instantly feel as though there is this perfect connection between gameplay and story, and you are making that connection between gameplay and story.

    This game is an amazing experience and contrary to what some people say, I found it incredibly exciting! I highly recommend you play this game, and show other developers that we want more games like this - games that try and make a point through a harmony between story and gameplay.

    To be fair, you have to have a very high IQ to understand Death Stranding. The humour is extremely subtle, and without a solid grasp of theoretical physics most of the jokes will go over a typical viewer's head. There's also Kojima's nihilistic outlook, which is deftly woven into his characterisation- his personal philosophy draws heavily from Narodnaya Volya literature, for instance. TheTo be fair, you have to have a very high IQ to understand Death Stranding.

There's also Kojima's nihilistic outlook, which is deftly woven into his characterisation- his personal philosophy draws heavily from Narodnaya Volya literature, for instance. The fans understand this stuff; they have the intellectual capacity to truly appreciate the depths of these jokes, to realise that they're not just funny- they say something deep about LIFE. As a consequence people who dislike Death Stranding truly ARE idiots- of course they wouldn't appreciate, for instance, the humour in Kojima's existential catchphrase "create the rope" which itself is a cryptic reference to Turgenev's Russian epic Fathers and Sons. I'm smirking right now just imagining one of those addlepated simpletons scratching their heads in confusion as Kojima's genius wit unfolds itself on their television screens. What fools.. how I pity them.

    And yes, by the way, i DO have a Death Stranding tattoo. And no, you cannot see it. It's for the ladies' eyes only- and even then they have to demonstrate that they're within 5 IQ points of my own (preferably lower) beforehand. Nothin personnel kid.    … Expand

    Great game by Kojima. Everything is good in this game. Perfect and enjoyable gameplay, which doesn't bother. Perfect story write. Pretty good online system.

    The game is pretty simple. I played on the hardest difficulty and didn't notice any difficulties, died only 2 times, and all the stuff I have delivered always was in perfect condition. It's hard to deliver cargo in bad condition.    Great game by Kojima. Everything is good in this game. Perfect and enjoyable gameplay, which doesn't bother. Perfect story write.

    An amazing game, every time I finish a contract, I can't wait to get out there again. I've been having so much fun the last week, exploring, and watching structures suddenly popping up that others build.
    The entire progression system rewrites the book what progression should be. A true masterpiece.

    The story is good. Some gameplay mechanics are new and good. The rest is a little repetitive and sometimes boring.

Curiosity of what's coming next keeps up to the hype it creates. Screw the reviews screw the ones specially who gave it low scores just to gain the spotlight. Jus go on this adventure.

    I love this game. It’s different than any other game I have ever played, which is a fresh change of pace. Graphics are great, story seems a bit odd until you get to chapter 3 or so and it really starts to come together. Main cons are the blatant monster advertisements and the semi clunky odor bike controls. Other than that this game is awesome and a master piece of its own. Would highlyI love this game.

    It's a great game and Graphics are amazing.it's a slow game though, but give it time and play it with an open mind, plan your deliveries and how you will going to do it and enjoy it. but remember you'll have to (PLAY IT ONLINE) in order to get the full experience of building and helping each other in the game world.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I have played around 40 hours of this game and I think it is a true masterpiece. Great story, character building, exploration, and gameplay is really fun too. The game is centred around exploration and it rewards you by finding beautiful mysterious landscapes. Some people think of it as a hiking simulator, for some it is like mine craft it’s all about building, for some is riding you bike in the mountains, ... but for me it’s all about exploring. The mechanic where it allows you to build stuff that others benefit from is one the most satisfying mechanic that have ever seen in a coop game. And the game concept is centred around doing good and helping each other. This game made me start talk to friend I have not talked to in years. It is a game that will be talked about for years to come. I highly recommended this game and I think it’s a must have for anyone that Is tired of shooters and souls-likes and ... and is searching for a new and unique experience in gaming.… Expand

    The breathtaking detail and incredible world building and atmosphere in this game have such incredible potential.

This only made it stingThe breathtaking detail and incredible world building and atmosphere in this game have such incredible potential. There are moments in this game that truly took my breath away, such as the action based cinematic cutscenes, the incredibly realistic yet isolated world and structures, and the overall photorealistic visuals and unmatched sound design and voice acting. This only made it sting that much more when I realized the gameplay is truly the definition of tedious, dull, and truly uninspired. This game feels like it truly goes out of its way to frustrate and the player with baffling gameplay choices and an overall monotonous and unrewarding premise. This game is nowhere near a 10/10, but it’s also nowhere near a 1/10. There is serious, serious potential here, but it is squandered. I rarely felt positive emotions from this game, I didn’t feel like I was escaping to a universe I couldn’t wait to immerse myself in and find out what happens next. Instead, I couldn’t wait to escape the game. It was a chore. It truly is, carry this cargo to this location, then probably go back, and then do it again. Most games walking and traveling is a tedious chore, only done to get to the next action set piece or story beat. Here, walking and traveling IS the game. Carry as much cargo as you can, as quickly as possible to this location. Ok, let’s do this! Start jogging and you’ll soon fall over and damage your cargo. Get stuck in the rain, your equipment and cargo degrades quickly, so now you’re trying to deliver even faster, only to get blown down a hill by the wind or slip and fall from the wet rain. Then BB starts crying, and you literally have to stand there and rock your PS4 controller back and forth. Keep in mind your equipment and cargo is still being damaged from the rain. BT encounters were not exhilarating, just annoying and again, tedious. That’s the best way I can describe this game: tedious. Mind numbingly dull, monotonous, frustrating, baffling, WTF were they thinking. I’ve never been more disappointed in a game, never before have I seen such incredible and breathtaking potential only to have it squandered on a gameplay structure that focuses solely on inconveniencing the player. Please, Mr. Kojima, never again. This sucks.… Expand

    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.
