    The game is garbage. Delivery-cutscene, Delivery-cutscene. Horrible gameplay.

    Death Stranding is a fantastic game. The acting, music, and visual design are all top notch. The writing goes from excellent to pretty cheesy, but some of it is clearly just Kojima being stupid on purpose. The gameplay is definitely not for everyone, but its so much more than an A to B walking sim

    Solo falto una raya para considerarlo como un timo, debido a la inflada y exagerada publicidad. El gameplay es lo más aburrido y soso que he visto!!!

    Confusing game at most in all aspects. Story makes no real sense, combat is very wonky and the constant traveling is boring. Seems rushed and unfinished apart from the grafix. Rental at most and bring a lot of coffee.

    Jogo horrível, fazer um jogo em 2019 de entregar pacotes e lançar como um a grande inovação é chamar os jogadores de trouxas, merece nota 0

    Death Stranding é um jogo incrível e inovador, o multiplayer do game é bem diferente e legal. Achei o jogo fantástico em todos os aspectos.

    For me, It was a completely different experience. I loved connecting the world and loved seeing how other's can help. Story was great imo. Don't believe the ones bashing on this game, because it's obvious they haven't played it.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I have been reading a lot of negative reviews here. Many players being unreasonably judgmental scoring this game 0. This game touched me like no game has in a while, so I especially registered to leave my first review specifically about this game.

    I believe that the hype, erupted around this project, raised the bar of expectations too high. Players were fantasizing about new breakthrough genre, revolution, new Silent-Hills-like comeback or something. In fact this game is not a revolution, of course, but an evolution of the modern concepts. Let's be honest - it is a social network. It allows you to be alone online, but feel the presence of other players at the same time. And as you begin your journey, you feel alone, but then you start encountering other players via all the gear they have set up: ladders, ropes, roads, other equipment. You interact with them and feel their support, which makes you want to leave your mark in the universe. So you grab materials and dedicate some time to build and upgrade in order to make others' playthrough easier. This what bonds and unites the gaming community, whilst on practice we are still alone.

    I will score this game 9/10, and will keep playing for myself and many others whom I linked to.

    trovo folle poter dare 10 a qualcosa che perfetta non lo è di sicuro mentre è assolutamente plausibile dare 1 se ogni aspettativa viene disattesa e ancor peggio ciò che ho tra le mani è qualcosa di fatto veramente veramente male

    Геймплей - хорошо проработанный , но ниже среднего с интересной механикой ходьбы 15/20
    Фан - худшая составляющая игры ! Ее спасает система лайков и совместная с сервером постройка дорог и прочего , игра больше медитативная чем развлекательная 10/20
    Музыка - очень атмосферная и погружающая в медитативное изучение мира , спасибо Low Roar за это 19/20
    Визуал - очень красивая картинка особенно с HDR и нативным 4к , но как по мне уступает собрату по движку Horizon Zero Dawn . 16/20
    Итог - мы имеем очень крутой сюжет в совокупности с потрясающем саундтреком и общей медитативности , но очень однообразной рутиной. Как по мне игре не хватает разнообразия , интересных ситуаций и разнообразных боссов П.с по меньше стеллса !!!

    El juego es espectacular. Gráficamente te deja atónito. Argumentalmente es un guión de Kojima, por lo que te puede gustar o no, tiene un sistema online muy innovador (basado en el sistema de los Dark Soul)
    En cuanto a la jugabilidad, al principio, puede parecerte que eres un mensajero (En los primeros compases del juego, que es donde el 60% de la gente se ha quedado). Pero a medida que vas avanzando te das cuenta, que no es un juego de tiros, no es un juegos de acción, ni de mundo abierto, sino una propuesta nueva.
    Esta propuesta consiste en la gestión de recursos, condiciones atmosféricas, terreno, es decir, tu enemigo no son ni los EV, ni las mulas, ni los terroristas (Ya que no suponen jugablemente ninguna amenaza). Realmente tu enemigo es el camino a emprender.
    A mi, me ha encantado. La propuesta puede o no gustarte, pero no se puede negar que es una propuesta nueva, con unos valores de producción bestiales con aire innovador, y esto no se le ha valorado.
    Siempre decimos que necesitamos algo nuevo, y cuando nos lo dan, se le critica y se tira por tierra todo el trabajo realizado.
    Es un buen juego, que te puede o no gustar (Al igual que a mi, los Forza no me gustan porque son conducción y no por ello digo que son malos, solo que a mi no me gustan). Pero los juegos hay que valorarlos de forma objetiva, no porque sea de una marca u otra, o porque sea de un género u otro.
    En cuanto a aspectos negativos, las físicas son mejorables (no sé si las arreglaran con el tiempo) y los primeros compases del juego son lentos, pero está justificado, ya que es un universo nuevo y tienen que explicártelo).
    Otra cosa negativa es la inteligencia artificial de los NCP, pero como he dicho antes, se puede perdonar ya que como he dicho antes, el objetivo del juego es otro.
    En definitiva, no le hagáis caso a las criticas de la gente, ni a la mía. Simplemente haced lo que hago yo siempre. Lo pruebo y lo valoro yo mismo, sin hablar desde el haterismo ni el fanatismo, ya que eso lo único que hace es cargarse la comunidad de videojuegos (Que me temo, que hace tiempo que la destruyeron los Trolls)

    Saludos y disfrutad de vuestro hobby,, sin que nadie os diga lo que debéis o no jugar

The bike is not suitable for the terrain neither and the physics are very pathetic, the bike crash even with tiny mounds. I could keep going but I think that's enough. Expand

    Mailman meets Climbing Mount Everest Simulator. Fun, yet slow and tedious sometimes. Worth playing just for the experience, but very awkward moments in the story sometimes.

    Most meditative game of all. The best game to relax after busy day. I totally agree, not every man will like that game, but i love slow and beautiful games. For all time there are no repeating locations.
    - After completing the plot, game becomes boring, because you have walked all locations and there is no any interesting actions around map.

    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. [Issue#299]

    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.
