    This game is mostly about narrativge because the gameplay is not the strong side of this game.The gameplay is quite specefic cause not everyone can enjoy it,but i enjoyed it,and also sounftrack by Low Roar is breathtaking.The narrative is so good a lot of twists and unexpected turns of plot.But i truly recomend to play this game,it is different experience in games.

Она привнесла в мою жизнь много положительных эмоций и благодаря ей я узнал о великолепной группе Low roar. Многие игру ругают за однообразный и скучный геймплей. Местами это заслуженно. Можно было придумать больше интересных моментов и разбавить курьерские доставки рандомными событиями. Так же не понятно, почему враги в игре жестко привязаны к своей области обитания, из-за чего становится проще всего пересечь эту территорию, а не использовать стелс или открытые столкновения. Та же проблема и с боссами. Хоть они и красивы, но бои с ними не вызывают особого челенджа. Лично я знаю о всех этих недостатках, но игра для меня сработала на все 100%, но рекомендовать всем подряд я ее не стану… Expand

    After the game, an extremely pleasant aftertaste remains, and there is an acute desire to learn everything about the game world, and to chew in the head everything that was not understood during the passage.

    Very atmospheric, sometimes tedious, but really original, unique game.

    Probably the best looking game on this console generation - period. The vision and gameplay are commendable in what they are trying to achieve. Kojima clearly is a visionary. However, not sure if this game will start a new genre or define some elements for games to come - although only time will tell.

    I would say that the atmosphere of the game in most situations is equally as great. Whether you're walking along a dirt road or running from literal ghosts, the ways in which the game conveys the desired mood is immaculate.
    My largest knocks against the game would be how information and controls are conveyed to the player (or rather, how /much/ information), and the menu-ing. There is so much information that gets regurgitated to you, both regarding mechanics and regarding plot elements that I felt it began to negatively impact the game in the latter half. There are so many systems working at any given time that it's a marvel how this game works as well as it does, let alone at all. Given the size and length of the game, I don't blame the developers for reiterating information. However, at a few points it did begin to negatively impact the way I felt about the game while playing it.
    I loved this game, and while I wouldn't say this 70+ hour Norman Reedus / Hideo Kojima simulator is for everyone, I'm pretty surprised at a lot of the negative reviews of it.    … Expand

    Death Stranding is not a walking simulator - it's a delivery sim. It is not a wish fulfillment story or engaging action-packed gameplay. It can be slow, especially in the early stages.

It can be slow, especially in the early stages. The main character is an everyman thrust into a role he doesn't want, and there are few moments of heavy payoff through a game that can take 50 to 100 hours. It is a slow burn with a story that is at times convoluted and often hidden in optional messages in the menu, but if you are willing to take a back seat and try to actually connect to the vast world, it will pay off by the end. Just make sure you have a few hours set aside - it's a long ending!

    The characters are well-designed with typical-for-Kojima cheesy nicknames and sometimes heartfelt backgrounds to said nicknames. There is a disconnect in how many times you see a hologram instead of an actual character, but this is a nonissue in a post-apocalyptic story where the weather and landscape has become deadly. The sluggish nature of the weight distribution system does make up a lot of the gameplay, but the sluggishness gives each delivery a feeling of actual weight - this isn't just counting numbers until you have maxed your encumbrance, there are multiple parameters to each package to be considered There's even a hotkey for those who aren't interested in manually organizing. Stick around long enough and the clunky menu doesn't feel so clunky- it pays off by the midgame when you know your best load out and are hauling 12-20 medium size packages with ease.

    Death Stranding requires patience through a large prologue. Enemies are sparse and seemingly unbeatable until progress is made, and the time it takes to walk the various open ended delivery routes can be daunting... but you soon unlock multiple vehicles and equipment that make the initial 20-minute hikes into five minute rides. The real gameplay doesn't even start until the second city is visited, a spot that a huge amount of people stopped playing at - based on PSN trophies as of April 2020, 43% of players completed the third chapter of a 14 chapter game. For reference the first boss fight is chapter four. Only 28% finished the game entirely.

    These numbers should be significant - everyone is entitled to an opinion but how can reviewers judge a game they likely didn't finish? Take the time to get involved with Death Stranding. Put yourself in Sam's sometimes frustrating boots, don your harmonica, and spend some quality time with your BB, dammit! If you're up for it, Death Stranding will absorb you.    … Expand

It can be frustating at times, and yes various quality of life changes can be made to make the experience more enjoyable. But, right now, Death Stranding sits in my collection as one of my proudest platinums. I am extremely glad that i got to play and experience this game by myself, but I´m not sure if I want to play again any time soon. DS is like a Mountain you gotta climb, but after you do climb it, you just wanna look back at your achievement and let it rest on your memory. In conclusion, If you have the chance to buy this game, please do, at first it may an overwhelming experince, but once you climb this ferocious mountain you be will left with nothing but satisfaction, and gratitude.… Expand

    Video game design has grown stale, games are getting more expensive to make and publishers always choose to go with the same proven formula for gameplay and storytelling, they cannot afford to take risks on such massive investments.
    This game is not perfect but it introduces so many unique concepts, it is a needed breath of fresh air, something different.
    The gameplay did not bother me, things remained interesting until the end, i loved the different gadgets and weapons you can make and the planning required for the toughest journeys.
    The online aspects helped keep things fresh and i really enjoyed it but there is no way of entering a strand contract with a friend, that is a shame.
    Some people have pointed out the blatant product placement (Monster), i don't mind it, at least the game is not full of predatory microtransactions.

The gameplay of this game is not for all because it just feels like a walking simulator especially in the start and if you also do the side quests it can become a little boring because you are going to the same locations so that you can finish all the side quests in the area that you are in. As I said before this game is not for all the gamers but I like it a lot. Kojima's games are always interesting and weird at the same time and that it is why I like it. The graphics are pretty good and the colours that you see in the different locations are pretty good and you don't have a dull feeling that you might have in the older Fallout games, I know that the fallout games needed to be like this so that you get the feeling but the landscapes are a little bit dull.

After wading through the early hours of game play geared towards exploration and slow travel the game eventually starts to pick up with sections that seem reminiscent of title like MGS & silent hill. I'm over 100 hours in and I’m still enjoying the experience. It truly rewards you for all your handwork as you progress and does bring about easier forms of transport as you move on. The only niggling problems I have so far with the game is its quite cluttered inventory management system and its over complex story but in comparison to the full package these are minor inconveniences IMO.

    its a slow burn and not very varied in the main mission structures. But that's not the point. you are there to make other players times easier, you need to go through the slow opening to get to the point to work with others asymetrically, helping others is very satisfying. seeing the roads you built being used by other users, creating zip lines across mountains etc

    Llevo jugando a los videojuegos desde la época de nes y master system. Por mi haber han pasado muchos juegos, de las mencionadas 8 bits hasta ahora y puedo decir que hacia muchos años que un juego no me transmitía tanto como este.

Por mi haber han pasado muchos juegos, de las mencionadas 8 bits hasta ahora y puedo decir que hacia muchos años que un juego no me transmitía tanto como este.

    Criticarlo por la realización de misiones secundarias que pueden llegar a ser repetitivas es un desacierto. Este juego es mucho más que seguir las secundarias (por cierto algunas son brillantes) sumergirte en un mundo con infinidad de detalles, la maravillosa banda sonora, el inmejorable doblaje de los actores es sólo la punta del iceberg. Es un juego profundo al que me fue imposible dedicarle menos de 100h, me lo he pasado con 105h y aun me quedan secretos por descubrir.

    Decididamente se trata de una obra maestra, un argumento que te deja elucubrando posibles respuestas durante dias. Ir del punto A al punto B se convierte en toda una expeciencia en la que debes usar el ingenio para alcanzar tu meta, nada es lo que parece.

    Recomendado a aquellos que sepan jugar desde la calma, aquellos que quieran disfrutar de un juego que alcanza la cumbre en prácticamente todos los aspectos. Tiene algún fallo, cierto como la falta de realismo en el manejo de los vehículos pero que esto os no haga perderos todo lo que supone esta historia.

    Vivimos en un mundo donde la ordinariez y vulgaridad acapara los mayores éxitos en la tv, prensa y muchos videojuegos. Este juego supone un antes y un después en esta industria como lo supuso en su dia shenmue (otro incomprendido en su época y ahora es un juego de culto)

Gameplay-wise it is indeed repetitive, which is why I give it an 8 out of 10. Sometimes, they make you deliver so many things, it feels more like a chore,but it can still be enjoyable. It isn't just a mindless shooter, that lets you just go with the flow. It's about strategy and problem solving, but you can still choose your playstyle. You can be stealthy and strategic and avoid all conflict possible, aggressive and bold and devastate everything that gets in your way, or fast and dynamic and speed through enemies and terrain, which playing online makes it very convenient. Graphics are definitely nothing to scoff at, the atmosphere and the very setting of the game is really nothing like i've seen in other games. Again, the word I would use for most things in this game is "unique". I've personally had a blast playing this game and If you decide to play it, I advice you be more open minded.… Expand

Он зацепил настолько, что я несколько месяцев сидела и ковырялась в нём, жадно собирая информацию из внутриигровых писем, диалогов персонажей и, конечно же, интернета. Глубокий, несущий в себе какой-то призыв. Много интересного лора, в который хочется вникать (правда, после чтения белого текста на черном фоне рябит в глазах), как что устроено и почему работает, что происходило с персонажами до событий игры...
    Также зацепила атмосфера. Опустошенный Выходом Смерти мир, зоны Тварей под снегом/проливным дождём (от которых мурашки по коже), лагеря противников, дороги. Молчу про то, что в этой игре собрались три моих любимых актёра.
    Да, в этой игре ты просто ходишь и доставляешь посылки, но суть в том, что местность постоянно меняется, меняется экипировка и стиль прохождения. Сначала ты топаешь по равнинам, потом ты бродишь по горам, после этого вообще по колено в снегу где-то ползаешь.
    Система "Лайков" очень порадовала, я люблю лайки ставить, что в соцсетях, что там.
    В игре, конечно, есть свои минусы. Например, нельзя начать новую игру+, что меня очень огорчило. Я прошла сюжет, открыла всех выживальщиков, прокачала уровень отношения с ними до максимума, отстроила полностью дорогу, накопила под полмиллиона лайков... И столкнулась с тем, что стало просто нечего делать в игре. Заново пойти и проходить сюжет я не могу, потому что жалко весь прогресс, постройки и уровни связи, что вынуждает завести второй аккаунт и играть уже на нём, что доставляет определенные неудобства. Также управление транспортом уж больно... Неудобное.
    Не жалею о покупке.
    Игра хорошая сама по себе, но она далеко не для каждого человека подойдёт. Если ты любишь сюжет, тонну лора и ищешь атмосферу, то это для тебя. Если ты любишь экшон, стрельбу и мясо, то не советую рассматривать данный проект.    … Expand

That's hard to achieve, with the countless shooters and open world games out nowadays. Yes it's long, very slow paced and demands your attention but this is not a bad thing, when you consider the scale of the story being told. If you're open to a new experience that will draw you into a surreal world and masterful story telling, then this is for you! You won't find anything like it. And when you're in the thick of it, you fully appreciate everything it has to offer.

    The story is delicately woven through-out the game. You may go a couple of hours just delivering packages and then other times, you'll be watching lengthy cut-scenes. This can break the pacing up a bit but it also keeps you on your toes, for the next story development.

    The game play here is truly unique. Instead of relying on gun-play, the challenge lies in traversing the landscape with your packages. It opens up further, once you unlock the vehicles and other outposts. One of the most rewarding parts of the game, was expanding the roads. It's not mandatory to the main missions but it does help greatly in delivering more packages at once. You are subject to scavengers and the BT's (invisible creatures), who make deliveries that much more intense. These enemies are the real threat in the landscape and can make for some amazing set pieces, that are unpredictable and hugely satisfying.

    To say this game is boring, is a hugely ignorant observation. If you're someone who is used to quick and gratifying games like Call of Duty, then stay away from this. It's not for everyone. It transcends basic game-play mechanics and creates something totally unique and fresh. If you don't enjoy this type of game then you can at least appreciate the importance of it.    … Expand

    I heard a lot of people saying this game is completely boring (I'm sure you heard someone saying it, too), and I can tell that after a 45 hours of playthrough on hard difficulty I still have the desire to play it. For me, it was not boring at all because every delivery is not just a run to some point, but a little journey, with all those troubles you face on your way to receiver. There areI heard a lot of people saying this game is completely boring (I'm sure you heard someone saying it, too), and I can tell that after a 45 hours of playthrough on hard difficulty I still have the desire to play it. For me, it was not boring at all because every delivery is not just a run to some point, but a little journey, with all those troubles you face on your way to receiver. There are so many things trying to interrupt you that you just do not have the to get bored. And every time you start to think "I'm tired of this" you receive some new gear or equipment that will make a new trip much more interesting. Consider that I had such an experience playing on high difficulty and I believe it is the one that is most balanced. Things got really hard only during Cliff encounters. So let me pick out all the pros and cons of the game I highlighted. + Beautiful graphics. Some places look really stunning and it was a pleasure to look at those landscapes. + Cool-looking locations and characters. Their design is so damn cool that you will definitely use on of them as wallpapers. The game is really stylish and I believe no one will dispute that. + Story. I cannot say it is kind of mind-blowing or ideal story. Moreover, I noticed it is pretty much overstuffed and it could be 5-10 hours less, but it has interesting stories of characters, nice ending and it will certainly make you want to cry at some moments. + Humour and just some weird stuff. It sounds strange, but there are a lot of little things that will make you smile, for example, you can just shout "Over here!" and receive a response "Over where?" of there is another player around. It has no point but you just can. You can grimace looking into mirror, or the boss can say something like "Are you going to lower the difficulty?". + BB. This child is the one you will love with all your heart. It is so cute and adorable that you just cannot "think of it like as instrument". It is a baby and you will feel like a father for some time even if you are not one. + Cooperation. The game makes you a part of it's world and this makes you to spend hours doing side quests and deliver materials to build some road, bridge or anything else. The mechanic of likes in its turn gives you the possibility to face the consequences of your actions. It lets you know when someone is using your bridge or when a vehicle you took and then left is destroyed. - Terrible controls. You will definitely try to break your controller sometimes because of that. The controls are just so bad that they are the reason you die most of times. I even thought of it as a kind of game mechanic. - Empty world. There are lots of mountains, plains, rivers and...and nothing. All the knots look the same and most part of the game you see nothing but just some empty fields or mountains. It is really monotonous. So, as you can see, the game is really unique. It has its style and ideas. I believe it is an experience everyone should face, because this is truly a masterpiece.… Expand

    Death stranding is an incredibly divisive walking simulator, you either hate it or love it, and there is no in-between. If someone told me 10 years ago that I'd be writing a review on why I love a walking simulator half to death I wouldn't have believed them, but here we are.

If someone told me 10 years ago that I'd be writing a review on why I love a walking simulator half to death I wouldn't have believed them, but here we are.

    If DS is anything, it's the product of Kojima's inner psyche, and this really shows. It's a game made foremost for Kojima by Kojima, and honestly, I can see why it's so divisive. The menus are a pain in the ass to navigate, for example. After 20 hours or so the player adjusts to them, but then again that's after 20 hours of navigating menus that you can't exit out of without saving their state. Grindy-ness is another serious problem the game sports. It's very repetitive with missions almost always "get this, take it here" with a few "get this from a hostile zone, bring it back" sections interspersed in between. Obviously, people can take issue with this, without a doubt- doing the same thing over and over again often doesn't sit well with a generation that wants as much variety as fast as possible. However, IMHO, the fun in DS comes from the routes you take and the way you tackle deliveries. Oh, got a massive amount of cargo you can't carry? Will you use floating carriers or a vehicle? Can those floating carriers get up that mountain? Can a vehicle? Are there obstacles you need to avoid? Will you change your route or go straight through? In what is essentially a giant walking simulator, this variety in execution, coupled with the new equipment and upgraded equipment you are almost constantly gaining from these deliveroo missions, makes for a genuinely fun and varied experience, not based on the missions themselves but how you go about solving the obstacles presented to you within those missions.

    Now, the story. It's convoluted- to say the least. It requires almost constant attention to figure out what the **** is actually happening around you and required me to play through the entire game two times (that might not seem like a lot, but ended up in me clocking in a total of 372 hours) to understand what was actually happening during the story. It's very abnormal and breaks from the norm in the way it tells its story, but overall, even before I finally managed to understand what was actually going on it made for a very emotional and moving experience, especially that almost godly ending. Sam and BB's relationship grows throughout the game, and by the end, you genuinely feel connected to all the characters you meet, especially deadman, praise that guy.

    Graphically, the game is stunning. The terrain modeling is quite simply some of the best I have literally ever seen- the environments look awesome, and so does the aesthetic clash, with futuristic clean surfaces and cities colliding with beautiful Icelandic terrain.

    Combat is less than great but still good. Stealth at the early game feels decent and genuinely needed, but by the end of the game, the stealth aspect is overplayed and essentially useless as you can just gun BTs straight back to the beach. There were some items I literally never used, such as the fake cargo packages and the smoke grenades, as I was almost always armed to the teeth with at least 2 non-lethal assault rifles and plenty of blood bags, meaning getting shot was barely an issue for me. Another issue I had with the game was resource management. You almost never have an issue with resources being scare until it comes time to build the trans-map highway, which ended up draining every single outpost of materials in my first run, and wasn't even finished- so I feel like that could have been balanced way better.

    Overall, however, this game was an absolute treat to play, and it might just be me but I never had a problem with the clearly monotonous and repetitive mission cycle, as I always had another way to try and get around it- this gets my personal 9/10 and is my favorite game of 2019, just barely passing AC7.    … Expand

This was the first time since Red Dead 2 that I played a game that I couldn’t put down! This is a game that I recommend EVERYBODY play through at least once!!

I suppose, as Kojima stated, it’s not for Americans as a stereotype. Repetitive action based gameplay is what Americans desire. It can’t require an attention span, because, well, Americans are fixated on short bursts - think online shooters with 15 minute long game rounds, rinse, repeat. I find those games fun too, don’t get me wrong, and I am American, but I can also give myself to the game and become tangled in it’s beautiful web of remarkable storytelling. Death Stranding is a modern marvel; Kojima is our generations Shakespeare.    … Expand

    This game is a masterpiece. This game is not for everyone but please give it a try. The beginning of the game makes almost zero sense but it will get better! It’s weirdly addictive. It’s scary. The enemies you need face are frustrating and scary, you need to be very strategic. For some human enemies, stealth doesnt work because of scanners haha but it’s really fun! It’s funny.

Read the emails and the story is really funny sometimes. It’s also sad. The game only gives you more information what’s going on as you progress but the idea of it all is sad. I don’t want to put spoilers here. Yes you deliver items but when you have enemies with no roads and other equipment, you need to figure out how to survive. What I like about this is the deep art put into making this game. Life is like this, you do “simple” tasks but it gets boring or hard depending on your circumstance. You also figure that you can only take what you can carry in life. And the things you built is destroyed in time thus - TIMEFALL. So good. So good. Please see the game for yourself. If it is for you, your money is well spent for a game you can easily play 300 hours with. This is one of my favorite games ever. :)… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. C'est mon jeu coup de coeur !
    C'est le premier jeu de Kojima auquel je joue (les MGS ne m'ont jamais tenté). Et je dois dire que je n'ai pas été déçue.
    Je ne sais même pas par où commencer cette critique. Les graphismes sont magnifiques, j'ai vraiment eu l'impression de voyager durant ma partie. Le nombre de fois où je commençais à partir pour livrer tel colis, et la musique s'enclenche soudainement, et je reste un moment immobile pour profiter de la musique et des paysages. Car oui, un point extrêmement important : la musique. Que ce soit les chansons que l'on peut entendre tout au long de notre périple, ou les musiques poignantes que l'on peut entendre durant les cinématiques, elles sont toutes incroyables. Encore aujourd'hui, 7 mois après avoir fini le jeu, je les écoute encore (je me souviens que j'avais entendu BB's Theme une première fois en dehors du jeu, et je n'avais pas été emballée, puis quand je l'ai entendu durant ma partie, je ne sais pas si c'est dû au fait que j'étais bouleversée par mes émotions, mais je l'ai adoré (et encore le mot est faible)).
    Le gameplay est peut-être le plus gros point faible de ce jeu (même si toutes ses qualités effacent ce petit défaut). Il est vrai que jouer les FEDEX peut devenir énervant à la longue, mais justement j'ai adoré voir que Sam ressent exactement la même chose que nous. Ensuite, le point qui me chiffonne le plus c'est les ennemis, non pas les échoués, mais les ennemis vivants. Pour ceux qui cherchent juste à nous assomer pour récupérer nos colis, pas de problème ; mais pour ceux qui cherchent à nous tuer, c'est beaucoup plus compliqué, surtout qu'on ne doit pas les tuer, et qu'ils peuvent nous repérer à distance (d'ailleurs je n'ai toujours pas compris quand scanner pour éviter d'être repéré, j'ai tenté plusieurs fois et j'ai toujours pas compris). Par contre, un point positif incroyable c'est l'entraide entre les joueurs. Je me souviens que j'ai été extrêmement heureuse de trouver un abri où m'abriter pour éviter les échoués (et j'ai rincé les joueurs qui les ont créé avec un max de j'aime), ou de trouver une échelle pour traverser une rivière ou monter une montagne sans laquelle j'aurais mis 15 minutes à trouver un chemin praticable. D'ailleurs ce système est tellement bien qu'on commence à vouloir soi-même contribuer (je suis d'ailleurs fière d'avoir contribuer à créer une bonne portion d'une route, d'avoir améliorer certains abris). Ce jeu nous donne vraiment envie de nous balader pour découvrir toutes les surprises que les développeurs ou des joueurs ont pu laisser sur leur passage. Cependant, j'aime l'idée qu'on ne peut pas se balader librement, qu'on est toujours menacé par les échoués, par cette pluie qui peut arriver à tout moment.
    Concernant l'histoire, c'était grandiose. Je crois n'avoir jamais joué à un jeu qui m'a autant intriguée, bouleversée, etc. Au début on a du mal à comprendre qui est qui, ce qu'il se passe, etc. Et au fur et à mesure on comprend, et surtout on s'attache aux personnages qui ont tous une histoire touchante. Rares sont ceux pour lesquels je n'ai pas laché une petite larme. L'histoire de Mama était tragique, mais ce qui m'a émue aux larmes est lorsqu'elle nous a demandé de "couper le cordon". Quand elle nous a demandé ça, je pouvais pas, je hurlais devant ma télé "non tu peux pas me demander ça, je peux pas faire ça". Et au bout de 5 minutes où j'espérais qu'il se passe quelque chose en vain, j'ai coupé le cordon et ça a été tellement dur (d'ailleurs la musique qui est jouée à ce moment reste l'une de mes préférées). Autre moment qui m'a marqué c'est la fin avec BB/Lou. Lorsqu'on a dû aller l'incinérer, j'étais mal, j'étais en PLS, et le BB's Theme n'a rien arrangé. Cette fin était incroyable. C'est l'histoire qui représente pour moi le plus gros d'un jeu, et Death Stranding est un chef d'oeuvre qui manie des concepts philosophiques, scientifiques et des émotions vives, fortes.
    Mon plus grand regret par rapport à ce jeu est qu'il ne soit pas devenu GOTY 2019. Mais pour moi, il restera mon jeu préféré.    … Expand

    Кодзима-гений.
    А если серьёзно - игра потрясающе красива, меланхолично спокойна, чарующе звучащая, просто невероятна. Я не был фанатом игр Хидео и вообще его способов донести мысль, но после этой стал, определённо. Мне кажется, что эта игра ещё срезонирует. Идея, посыл геймдизайнера, его мысль ещё найдут отклик в умах и сердцах людей.    Кодзима-гений.

    This is not what I expected, but still pretty good. I was inspired by the atmosphere and the basic mechanics of 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.
