    This 40 hour story game was out for less than 20 hours and it already has a 1300 user reviews. You can imagine that the User Score on this one has nothing to do with the actual game... I'm giving it a 10 just to underline my point.

    A masterpiece. Goty 2019
    Hideo is Doing Things u've Never Seen in this masterpiece. Even if u dont like Open world Games, you should give this a try. Typical facinating Kojima Story Telling.

    Beautiful scenery amazing story and engaging gameplay. Whoever is not liking this game is because they were dumb enough to buy a game without knowing what the game was. It's like buying tetris and complaining that it isn't call of duty. Next time do some research on what you're buying before you do and don't criticize a game just because it's not the game you wanted to buy.

    Well I brought a really long review and then it got deleted because this interface is really horrible the typing your views but basically travel from point a to point B and it's not open world so don't think you can explore because you cannot explore the 1st 15 hours or so boring

    An action adventure role playing game... where the action is removed and the adventure is a 5 minute segment every 5 hours.

    I don't understand how this is possible in 2019. You spend your budget on actors playing your characters and rick and morty ads and make a game that's just... bad.

    I love how 90% of the "10" ratings are people saying "don't mind me, just countering trolls posting 0"

    That being said, the game is pretty daring and it pays off in some aspects. Keyword: Some
    There is a reason Fast Travel is a popular option in many open-world games, even ones that are filled to the brim with content around their worlds and with interesting ways to traverse them. The intricacies in the gameplay while making deliveries does make it more engaging than the "walking simulator" many are accusing DS to be. Still, these vaguely aspects involved in the traversal simply aren't interesting enough to justify sitting through a mediocre and unskippable 8 hour passion project, film student-esque movie made by the ego-inflated hack that is Kojima. DS fails to cater to any specific audience by trying to implement way too little of way too much.

    To those who are holding out hope and believe they will enjoy it because they want a "comfy uwu" game should most certainly reconsider their definition of comfy.    … Expand

    The **VAST** majorities of negative reviews on here are from people who are only "pretending" to own the game, and are either mad because, A, this game isn't on Xbox (or PC yet or Nintendo or whatever), or B, are just upset that the game exists at all.

    Anyone who can't tell you specifics about the gameplay and are only writing generic things like "this game is a walking simulator" are just liars trying to demean the game because they're mad it exists. I'd say at least 85% of the negative reviews here are fake.

    The game is definitely not a walking simulator. I personally detest walking sims. If this game is a Walking Sim, then so is Breath of the Wild.

    This game actually shares more in common with BOTW than you might think. The real fun of the game is in traversal. Not mindlessly walking forward. But in seeing a mountain in your path and struggling to get up and over it.

    If you played BOTW and you loved trying to forge your path to the next ruin, which meant scaling a mountain and winding around it, or trying to figure out a way to get up and over with just the limited supplies that you had, then you'd love this game.

    I recommend playing it on HARD difficulty.    … Expand

    El juego empieza lento, y continúa igual de lento, lo bueno a destacar es la historia, pero por 59 euros va a ser que no. Recomiendo que la gente vean las cinemáticas en algún canal de Youtube y se ahorrarán una buena cantidad de dinero. Si por mi fuera se llevaría un 4, pero como están inflando las notas con 10, yo hago justicia con un 0.

Avoid if u want play the usual story mode and that's it. There is so much going on here, u gotta have the right mentality to play.

    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.
