    Es un juego bastante mal ejecutado , su gameplay es bastante monótono y aburrido siempre cargando paquetes de un lado a otro , no se logra empatizar con absolutamente ningún personaje , las mecánicas totalmente desperdiciadas ya que los combates se pueden evitar en un 99 % de las veces , si bien logra conectar con las personas indirectamente pero no es original o innovadora como se decía ,Es un juego bastante mal ejecutado , su gameplay es bastante monótono y aburrido siempre cargando paquetes de un lado a otro , no se logra empatizar con absolutamente ningún personaje , las mecánicas totalmente desperdiciadas ya que los combates se pueden evitar en un 99 % de las veces , si bien logra conectar con las personas indirectamente pero no es original o innovadora como se decía , lo único bueno es el apartado gráfico y su banda sonora que más que todo parece un spotify del creador del juego , juego que presumía ser bastante innovador y solo se queda con esa idea.… Expand

    Death Stranding puts a new paradigm in games, it goes on a list where are Zelda Breath and Mario Odyssey and shows that the game industry still needs to review their concepts, games like these are necessary even if not pleasing everyone.

    @HIDEO_KOJIMA_EN - Death Stranding was a beautiful, powerful, validating experience for me. As an adult who's still learning to live with childhood trauma, I felt a deep (and much needed connection) to the world you created. Thank you, Kojima-san. *BIG HUG*

    Refreshing, new and unique. Quirky as all heck, but I would gladly take that over the same tired tropes that the game industry tends to push out when they try to play it safe. This is a slow burn, but the more I played the more I feel in love with it and now it's one of my all time favorites.

    Another masterpiece from Master Vídeo Kojimão. The game has a deep history, awesome and unique gameplay and a lot of geek love in form of cameos and easter eggs.

    Buona regia ma la tanto decantata e acclamata storia è pessina, non seguo nessun filo logico, è un pastrocchio di cosa inventate senza ne capo e ne cosa, completamente irrazionale e fuori dalla realtà.

    This game is superb. Can't put it down. Not a walking simulator in the slightest. It's a slow burn narrative wise but worth the grind. Incredibly satisfying and well designed game.

    El juego no es espectacular. Es algo regular.
    La historia es muy interesante pero esta muy compactada hacía el final del juego y lo que debería ser un plot twist es un monólogo de 1 hora.

    This game isn’t for everyone. If you want a engrossing and thoughtful story and an experience this game is for you. I find the trekking back and forth between story elements calming and a nice change of pace from most modern games. Kojimasan has always been a source of thoughtful story and this story is no different. Come into it with no expectations and take it slow. You will enjoy the stay.

    Prefect Game in my opinion.
    It is something completely different and unique. You need the time to play and understand the story, Gameplay, atmosphere and game mechanics. Ghaphics wise are one of the best in Ps4. Gameplay is very specific and in demands a different understanding. It is not a gun and run or RPG style it does take a little from them but it has created its own footstep in the    Prefect Game in my opinion.

    Death Stranding is the latest game developed by Kojima Productions, the studio behind the Metal Gear Solid franchise.

It's a new IP/story about a delivery man named Sam Porter Bridges going on a journey to reconnect the United Cities of America after a destructive worldly event called the Death Stranding, facing terrorists and other worldly beings called BT's. This game starts off slow, resulting a sluggish beginning and taking a while to kick it up a notch after about 7-10 hours, but when you get passed that point, the game becomes routinely addictive and fun to play when it comes to avoiding Mules and BT's, and delivering containers and packages across a very beautiful landscape. The terrain is vast and full of beauty, giving you a sense of peace while treversing it and the soundtrack that Kojima picked for this game is great, giving you a sense of immersion.

    Gameplay is a bit of a mixed bag. Clearly Death Stranding isn't meant to be an action game like the Metal Gear franchise, but more of a social single player story experience. The social strand system is one of the high points. Getting to help make a better world by building structures to help other players travel across this world is something I absolutely love about this game. Giving likes and keeping the game positive is something we dont always get, especially in huge AAA titles. The downside is how combat is implemented with some clunky gameplay mechanics, and the lack of difficulty with the enemy AI. Also, it's disappointing not seeing a lot of actual people and instead being greeted by a hologram through most of the game.

    The story in my opinion is weirdly paced through the game but is ultimately satisfying seeing how the story concludes. The characters for the most part are well written with some cringy moments, but overall are worth investing your time in seeing how things turn out for these characters. With a shift in big AAA titles leaning more and more towards multiplayer, microtransaction filled, live service games trying to play it safe, Death Stranding takes risks in not only being a new IP, but gives one of the most unique experiences you will come across this generation. I know this game isn't meant for everyone but I'm certainly happy with my time playing Death Stranding.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I'm addicted to this game. I've clocked 55 hours and is currently on chapter 6. There's is actually a LOT you can do, see, learn, and explore. It's not just a walking simulator like many people are trying to hate it for. All these people are hoping the game be something that it isn't. I can see why some people won't like the game, but the length some people go to HATE on the game is very unwarranted.

    All these people giving it anything less than a 2/10 is a hater. I can guarantee it. I've read over a few hundred bad reviews and they ALL say the same things without providing much explanation or elaboration: It's a "Walking simulator" or "It's boring" or "It's over-hyped'

    No, it's not a walking simulator, that's an oversimplification. Call of Duty is just a "Gun Simulator." Super Mario is just a "Jumping Simulator" and Tetris is just an "Organizaing Simulator." It says nothing. They're missing the forest for the trees. The game started VERY slow and boring, seemingly because of poor design. However, 10-15 hours in it picks up drastically. Once the game picks up I became appreciative of the boring 10-15hr start. I realized that the beginning was designed for you to feel lonely, weak, and slow with struggles.

    The story is not too complex but is very interesting and unique. It's not cliche or "rinse and repeat" type of story. Overall this game is doing it's own thing and not trying to be something else. The heart of this game lies in the background: being alone but not feeling alone. It's not meant to be another typical shooter or hack-n-slash game that is all flashy but not substance. I find the most fun in helping other players, making their journey easier while exploring new and breath-taking territories. I love the rush of the challenge each new landscape brings.

    People who like fps or hack-n-slash won't like this game. People who like puzzle, adventure, survival, and networking will like this game. The one thing that is for certain is it is not the easiest game starting out which is partially why the reviews are so polarizing. I can see many people quitting the game before it gets better. For me, I'll probably easily spend over 100hrs at the rate I'm playing.

    There are a TON of reasons why this game is better than it's not and people are too quick to overlook that.

    PROS:
    - Amazing cinematography, animation, graphics.
    - New gameplay style.
    - Attention to details, humor, sarcasm, jokes, and secrets.
    - Unique and clever combat and strategy. (You can throw a blood grenade, then shoot real bullets through it to coat it in blood, turning a normal gun into a "blood" gun that can damage BTs.
    - Very cool and interesting world design. Rain, sun, snow, rocks, etc all have a role to play. Each slope, hill, mud, and rocks have different feel, risk, and factors that you have to consider when passing through. Unlike most games where you just run to your destination without any thought.
    - Amazing like and networking system that make you feel like you're contributing to something more although you're playing alone.
    - Great music and sound.
    - A TON of game play.
    - The list goes on and on

    CONS:
    - Can get repetitive at some points.
    - Slow starting
    - The chiro network locations feel a bit random and inorganic. A photographer lives alone in -30 temperature, a doctor lives on the side of a mountain, a collector is somewhere near a bunch of BTs and a voidout for no reason.    … Expand

    How to explain it so that it's not spoiled but not ignored. So the premise is that somehow the world of the living and dead has sorta kinda intersected, and it's basically post apocalyptic sorta but the apocalypse happens when a human soul touches basically a demon from hell, it causes an antimatter nuke to go off, so you can imagine early on in the storyline as cities are being demolishedHow to explain it so that it's not spoiled but not ignored. So the premise is that somehow the world of the living and dead has sorta kinda intersected, and it's basically post apocalyptic sorta but the apocalypse happens when a human soul touches basically a demon from hell, it causes an antimatter nuke to go off, so you can imagine early on in the storyline as cities are being demolished people freak the F out, so they bunker down and the country becomes these outposts of civilization all holed up. You, for story reasons I won't spoil, are able to somewhat feel the demons and have made a name for yourself delivering supplies between these city bunkers. So the game is one giant fetch quest. And when it started after a few hours I was ready to throw in the towel because I was not enjoying it but it's sort of done that way on purpose. You literally have nothing but a backpack, and you are totally alone in the world, so you load up cargo and have to walk, across a desolate landscape and up mountains and stuff, and the engine is pretty amazing as you have to balance your weight on the inclines and can slip and fall, and have stamina which dictates how you can move uphill or across streams, and you can get swept away or fall down causing your cargo to fall off and get damaged or go rolling down that mountain you just hiked. It was infuriatingly difficult. Then add to that you have the stealth mechanics of avoiding demons and hostile humans and it was tough. All to deliver some cargo from point A to point B. So if you get to that, I can understand why its so devisive because it wasn't very fun and it didn't feel rewarding. But I kept at it and all of a sudden stuff starts to click. You "level up" skills which allows you to carry more weight and have better balance. You start unlocking tools that will help like ladders and ropes and then all of a sudden you have a bike then a truck, ziplines and remote charging stations so that progression feels really real.
    Add to that you can basically modify the landscape to your need. Going between point a and b is a wasteland but spend resources and now theres a road and a bridge over that river all the way up to a series of ziplines connecting mountain peaks together. And this is where another really cool part comes in, its a single player game but ghosts of other players structures will sometimes come through, so you may be walking along and some other player in their world put up a series of ladders to climb up a tough spot, now you can use their ladder to climb up, or you can leave helpful signs to other players like “go this way” for a hard to find path. Also people can contribute to your buildings, so when someone helps you build a bridge across a river its in your game and theirs and it’s a really neat feeling of watching the land develop and see how other people are tackling routes or areas. Its all balanced well with the pacing so it starts off real slow with very few mechanics but toward the end you are loading up a truck with 30 boxes of stuff to deliver in a circular route that you spent 10 hours paving avoiding demons and humans and increasing rep and skills and it gets pretty addictive from that aspect. And once you get a handle of that the game adds in more gameplay types, now you are fighting demons and humans, and then the crazy amazing story starts to really come to shine and wow what a ride. The lore both in the form of emails and interviews with outpost survivors to hours and hours of amazingly done cutscenes paints a picture unlike pretty much any other story, and some emotionally charged sections as well. At the surface, the first 5-10 hours of “gameplay” is rough, some people will like it right off the bat, some will hate it but it’s done on purpose and the feeling of isolation and immersion is unbelievable and the feeling of reconnecting the country one stop at a time with amazing cast of characters and biomes is just something to experience. If you like to skip cutscenes and just shoot things this is not the game for you but if you want to be immersed in a world unlike anything else you’ve played and really feel a roller coaster ride of immersion, isolation, despair and elation and experience the entire package you will come away amazed.    … Expand

The social system of coming together to beat the landscape reveals itself and for me the gameplay loop was addictive.

The more I watch, the more I feel like I'm torturing myself to the point where I skipped to the end of the game and it was almost 2 hours from being over.

Ta část na „břehu“ kdy sem musel cekal na titulky a zapnuti dalších rozhovoru byla docela úmorná. Následná další hodina konce to ale zlepšila.

    Hra je hodně unikátní a žádná jiná taková neexistuje. Ke hře jsem    Tak po 43 hodinách a po dosazeni 235 levelu jsem dohrál tuhle hru. Relativně bych to dohrál drive ale finále je v podstatě jen čekání na rozhovory a sledovaní zakončení příběhu. Ta část na „břehu“ kdy sem musel cekal na titulky a zapnuti dalších rozhovoru byla docela úmorná. Následná další hodina konce to ale zlepšila.

    Hra je hodně unikátní a žádná jiná taková neexistuje. Ke hře jsem přistupoval bez nějakých požadavku od ní. A možná díky tomu jsem z ni nebyl zklamaný. Bavilo mě doručovat ale nejvíc mě bavilo si budovat lepší cestu. Od nějaké části hry se mi dostalo do rukou zařízení „lanová dráha“ které umožnuju stavět vodicí veze max 300m od sebe a vytvořit tak síť/dráhu po které se můžu klouzat a ušetřím neskutečně casu. Užil jsem si to v části v horách. Kdy jsem si vždycky dal zaležet na tom abych sebou měl dostatek materiálu a při překonávaní hor jsem vždycky za sebou nechával cestu kudy se mohu pak vydat a nejen já. Par lajku jsem za to dostal :D
    Zprava nakladu a jeho rozmístěni, cesta do neznámého místa. To vše bylo hodně super. Jde vidět ze v tomhle leželo jádro hratelnosti. Naopak souboje mě vůbec nebavili. At už jsem se pral s lidskými protivníky nebo s VV. To platilo i pro souboje s bosy. Naštěstí se da konfliktu relativně vyhnout. Kromě bosu jsem tedy vůbec nebojoval.

    Příběh a svět ve kterém se hra odehrává je proste…….jiny :D Snad jsem ho i pochopil, i když se raději podívám na par videí na youtubu zda je to opravdu tak jak si myslím :D Bylo to zajímavé. Bylo ale par míst kdy je hra až neskutečně „mimo-příběhově“ textově otravná. Kdy mi postavy vysvětluji tohle a tamto a tohle a ještě u toho říkají že si musím pospíšit ale pak ještě kecají o tomhle a tamto ohledně hratelnosti.
    Příběh hodně rozmělňuje hráč jako takový. Protože klidně můžu ve hře hrát 15 hodin a neposunout se v příběhu ani o minutu. V tomhle jsem se snažil si udržet nějakou rovnováhu. I když jsem ji ze začátku trochu porušil a dost se věnoval budovaní silnic a doručovaní obyčejných zásilek.

    Soundtrack se povedl ať už to bylo zajímavé použití existujících skladeb nebo nove vytvořených pro hru. Vizuálně bylo také na co koukat. Svět byl sice „jednoduchý“ ale hezky. Vypraveni příběhu bylo provedeno také dost zajímavě. Na to bych asi řekl jen – klasicky Kojima. To samé platí o postavách. Dost zvláštní a unikátní. Asi v paměti mi nejvíc utkvěl Heartman.

    Závěrem ? Jedna se o těžce uchopitelnou hru. Po hratelností stránce je dosti unikátní a pokud od ni někdo čeká akční nářez tak má smůlu (přitom to ale tvůrce sám říkal, tohle není akční hra). Svět a příběh je také unikátní. Režie a střih a divnost od Kojimy je tam proste všude cítit  Užil jsem si to.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Confusing story with a satisfying end. The core gameplay mechanic of delivery rarely felt stale to me, but after completing this game, I felt the urge to go out and continue deliveries and setting up more structures to help other players. The theme of connections played out well, even if it felt hamfisted at times. Graphics, gameplay, and implementation are all 10/10 for me. Give it a shot.… Expand

    The game provides a cool Wired story Which i loved from the mind of Hideo Kojima, decent characters with a compelling back story, beautiful graphics and outstanding soundtracks but the games suffer from a slow start and a repetitive missions.

    Kojima delivers in every way imaginable in his first game by him and his new studio Kojima Productions, whilst you may think delivering packages isn't fun it strangely is, as well as being very addictive. The story really ramps up towards the second half and everything in concluded rather well. Please don't listen to the negative reviews, play the game then judge it for yourself.

    Who knew delivering packages all alone in a wasteland could be fun? This game is beautiful with amazing visuals and voice acting. Some of the repeated visuals can get boring after a while. You can only watch a man shower and pee so many times in a day before it gets old.

    This game is about the journey and doing your part to make the world a better place. The sense of accomplishment when you get your destination and connect new cities is amazing. I also find myself creating structures purely in the hopes someone else might find them useful.

    While battle is not a huge focus in this game, it is present. The focus is on sneaking, running, and non lethal solutions. I find myself holding my breath as my character does, my heart beating like a racehorse as I try to sneak around. The peaceful moments in between are made sweeter by the enemy encounters.

    The story is 100% Kohima, so I expect I will never fully understand, but reading and watching the optional lore helps immensely.    … Expand

    GIVE IT TIME! The game unveils its mechanics very gradually, changing its gameplay style in very unique ways. Those who give low scores simply did not play it enough to see all it has to offer. It's not a common Gears or Cod, when after 1 hour you can see everything the game has to offer in terms of gameplay.

    Story, graphics, sound and all the rest can't even be commented: simply over the top.

    At the end of it all i had an answer to all my questions and a bunch of emotions and i wasn't quite sure what to think of it. I now think it's a masterpiece.
    In many aspects, it feels like a next gen title, with the obvious graphic quality and other mechanics that are subtle and quite polished.
    I played 40 hours and might play some more in the future, which is why i think it deserves a 9 out of ten.
    Not a ten because some things are tedious, and could be balanced a bit better.

    I was half tempted to give this game a 10 to counter act the zeros, A game to me with a zeros, means to me as if the game doesn't work, hell even a 1 Thru 3 means it's playable but is a buggy and the game may be incomplete. If you rated the game 4 or 5 at least you gave a crap to rate it some what fairly even tho the 4 rating is bit on the low side but I could not logically figure out disqualification for such a number.

    With that being side I would like to review the game by making counter points to some of low rated comment/scores Heck I might even agree.

    ----------------------
    MrDayvs -"This game is proof that GAMEPLAY in a videoGame is truly important"

    Counter point : I would argue the "gameplay" which is fun, rewarding (At Least to Connection Bond 4) slightly addicting and is integral for what the story he wanted to tell so it is important. The way I feel about the gameplay which some say is "unique" is almost akin too Harvest Moon games in my opinion in stead of farming for hours to get money, you deliver packages to get materials and new building/equipment. instead romancing and befriending villagers, your do that with cities and since you can get max bonds with every city (they give you a star to put on your leg when you do)
    -----------------------

    Tom-Pendragon -"The endless grind of walking around and watching meaningless cutscene with characthers we don't even know. There is no connections between us and Sam bridget and his friends"

    Counter Point: Most of the time doesn't need be a grind unless your going for max bonds on every city if your a completionist then yes a grind is waiting for you but most of the time drooping off one sam package order is enough to keep the story moving (but I will note I said most, since sometimes you need to do 2 sam orders)

    As for the "Meaningless cut scenes" in general I would say their is meaningless ones but most don't involve characters. Example going back to base to heal your fatigue can consist 4 mini cut scenes if you bring a vehicle to get healed and that's just to get into the room. To max your max stamina you will need to drink 3 cans and that is 3 mini cut scenes. Then leaving the base you can get 1 to 3 more mini cut scene, but I would argue that one of them the "Shared BB28 Memories" (I would like to highlight it's quoted for a reason) are not meaningless, but you can end up watching the same one over. since that is on a loop for the most part. But guess it's worth noting you can skip the mini cut scene, but I wish their was more quality to life features, like auto skip viewed cut scene and auto can feature as this just becomes tedious and might just be their to waste the players time.

    As for "meaningless cut scenes with characters we don't even know" I would argue that is the point of a cuts scenes so you can get to know them and their involvement within the story.

    One more part of his statement to pick apart "There is no connections between us and Sam bridges and his friends" Ether this reviewer is miss guided and didn't beat the game or he's telling bold face lie. When you begin the game one might feel this way but I would say what links you to Sam is the time you spent on the journey West and as for his Friend the game dose a good job of showing the links if played to completion.

    As Tubey's Review is well written and it seems like he has a better grasp of the game but I see Things I can counter point and he did give it 3 unless he changes the score once more and sadly it's so big that I may not be able to cut thru all of it but I digress.

    Tubey -" let's just say that there is zero subtlety throughout. There are characters such as Fragile and Die-Hardman - they are their names, not nicknames as you'd expect, and they are presented as such with not a hint of sarcasm or self-awareness. They simply spell out explicitly the main trait of the character. The main character is a porter who builds bridges, so naturally his name is Sam Porter Bridges. This is the level of 'on the nose' we're dealing with here"

    Counter Point: The thing I see wrong here is that Die-Hardman is a nickname but it dose show his traits but Fragile is 100% a birth given name at least that's what story seems to say and dose not highlight her traits it sort of spits in the face of that notion.

    Tubey " 10% of it is running from harmless enemies"

    Counter Point: I would say yes you run form them, but if you played on very hard, they are not harmless they could spell death easily if they catch up to you or a few stray bullets hit. But I will say the ai is stupid with Bola Gun you can hide in the grass take out the whole camp

    Well I'm running out of room so I need to end the abstract review but overall it's good game that's flawed.    … Expand

    It wouldn't usually be such a big gripe for me but the game expects a lot of time investment in story - it has A LOT of cut-scenes - makes the story element feel important so you try to follow along but I found it impossible and gave up trying to understand.

    So, apparently, some people don't know that youtube reviews are a thing or have come from the eighties, when we bought games without really knowing.

    This game isn't divisive. The larger portion of players have US culture shoved up so far up their asses they don't recognize the smell of feces in it anymore. When something different appears they think it's bad because it doesn't conform to the typical narrative and gameplay style. If this game was made with their mindset, Sam would be building bridges and uniting people by killing and blowing up stuff.

    instead of the actual repetitive gameplay people accuse this game of, Kojima is telling a story that uses Sam's job as courier as a framing device, while preaching about union and interdependence. No wonder the game would be 'divisive'... People from the US have convinced themselves that they are too independent and modern isolationist culture doesn't help, where people changed interrelationship with social media. Ironic, considering the game's mechanics and constant use of holography. Probably intentional.

    Complaining that the game is repetitive is akin to complaining that all you do in any game is push buttons on a controller or saying that people keep shooting each other in FPS games. Curious how this BS only surfaces when people don't like the game. It's about practical problem-solving in relation to plotting routes and getting cargo where it needs to be, while facing threats and ensuring that stuff isn't delivered damaged.

    Story-wise, it is a Kojima-brand delight.

    The graphical quality is not the best, but it is enough with the style of games Kojima has always made. There is no room to complain, with well used effects and well crafted maps and locations.

    The soundtrack shines as bright as the story.

    First of all i have played 50 hours of this game and i am still thinking about it the story the music the sense of accomplishment at reaching your goal. ANYONE giving this game less then a 6 needs to think what they are doing, its not a broken game or a game that looks bad, it is a beautiful game with less bugs then most games at launch recently. This is my first review and im doing itFirst of all i have played 50 hours of this game and i am still thinking about it the story the music the sense of accomplishment at reaching your goal. ANYONE giving this game less then a 6 needs to think what they are doing, its not a broken game or a game that looks bad, it is a beautiful game with less bugs then most games at launch recently. This is my first review and im doing it because its getting bombed with scores it does not deserve but its not a 10 either its probably a bit too long some cut scenes can be a bit cheesy even if you like that and the gameplay will not be for everyone. There are a lot of Kojima haters out there also x box and Nintendo players who will just shove a massive zero on it say its a walking simulator even when the game has been out only a few hours and it gets review bombed. YOU might not like this game its gameplay and story might not be for you if you dont like Kojima games you might not like it if you dont like slow gamepay even though i found it compelling you might not like it. The social system is awesome the way you can feel other people in the game is amazing finding a ladder when you fall in a crevice and it helps you, or finding zip lines in mountain areas or ropes that help you climb up or down mountains, this system make you want to help people building roads, safe houses, leaving ladders or zip lines in helpful areas.

    I could go on an on about this game but no one will read it if i do there is good things and bad things in this game if you like Kojima play it, if you dont like him dont. If a game that has never been made and will never get made again before with interesting compelling gameplay with a story i really enjoy (especially the ending) its definitely worth a try.

    Spoiler free and was going to put a 10 but then you become what you hate this is my honest review of this game.

    This is real art. The plot and soundtrack are amazing. Of course, the main disadvantage is the repetitive gameplay based on one mesanic-dragging of boxes, also the physics of transport, which simply enrages simple battles with bosses, but it’s worth overcoming for a really amazing story.

    I still have not finished the game, I have thirty hours of play, and overall I love the game, but I still have some criticism.
    Many critics talk about a walking simulator, while the interest lies in everything that revolves around, what is intriguing in a hike is not simply to reach the goal but the hike itself, and in such a rich world it makes the experience really unique.

    I love Kojima's touch, his sense of detail, his power to transport the player to another world. He takes the risk of proposing something new and for me the bet is successful.
    The systemic side of the game offers really extraordinary experiences, I had sensations that had never felt in any other game.

    Now I still have some severe criticism, especially on the physics of vehicles, which seems to me too rigid and capricious.
    Another point that almost ruin all my gaming experience is the interface, which is really overloaded, and which is not very big sometimes becomes unreadable.
    There is a sense of information spam at the beginning of the game that could repel some player.

    Death stranding Is quite an interesting game, we all knew the protagonist was a delivery guy so if you don't like walking around a lot, well guess what... Anyway, I took around 40 hours to finish the story mode, the story is very very weird but so damn good at face value, very intricate and with some political messages hidden within that some people might not like them but they are subtleDeath stranding Is quite an interesting game, we all knew the protagonist was a delivery guy so if you don't like walking around a lot, well guess what... Anyway, I took around 40 hours to finish the story mode, the story is very very weird but so damn good at face value, very intricate and with some political messages hidden within that some people might not like them but they are subtle so not many will notice, the start of the game can be somewhat tedious at the beginning, but it gets quite good after the halfway point, heck play it on the highest difficulty if you feel it doesn't have any good action, the amount of little details in the game makes it quite unique, from a programmers perspective it is impressive compared to many other games, the systems in the game are well put together. Now the music, the music is so damn good, at the end of the story when all the pieces start coming together, the music gives it a backup punch to your feels, I'm talking to you BB's theme.
    The pseudo-multiplayer system in place is quite interesting, I found later, quite an interesting thing that happens when you die regarding that system, anyway the other player's actions help you a bunch in many areas, from bikes and cars to damn rocket launchers.
    I do dislike a lot that many people are just putting 0 in the review and review bomb this game even when they haven't played it, this game is not a 0 even if you don't like the walking, is not a 10 i'll be honest, I just placed it to balance the 0s    … Expand

    I can't believe what I'm saying this, but Death Stranding is the biggest disappointment of the year.

    O jogo deve ser apreciado com um anime longo, onde começa a "pegar" lá pro vigésimo episódio. Death Stranding engrena pra valer após 6 horas de jogo. Depois disso o vício é certo!

Tip: if you want to enjoy the game to its fullest capacity, take your time with it. Take the time to watch cutscenes and go the slow route during deliveries, if it means less headache. Sometimes things wont always go your way, but that just adds to the fun. This game isnt meant to be an experience thats rushed.… Expand

    It wasn't konami who needed kojima, it was Kojima Konami. So much remains when a supposed genie works "alone". The story is an absolute joke. Trash dialogues and characters. The script should have been written by someone with a talent for it and the gameplay should have made someone who doesn't always scream out into the world how great he is. Less Twitter and more craftsmanship.

People can't give it it a 0 or even a 1, it's a 7 at lowest if you're not into it and a 9.5 if you are, but I'm rounding my score to 10.

    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.
