    I'll start off by saying it's definitely not for everyone. Even people who love Kojima's other games seem to find this hard to get into, but something about it just hits all the right buttons for me.

    The fun is in plotting your route and using all the gadgets to make your way past obstacles while keeping your packages safe. There's so much mechanical depth, and it just feels good to play, it's very polished. You're constantly getting new tools, buildings, and vehicles.

    Of course if you just want to shoot the bad guys, there isn't a lot of that here. This is a slow burn and you gotta be in the mood to just chill and take it all in. The story is unique and well executed, the visuals are beautiful. There's lots of Kojima's personality in the world, it's full of his quirkiness. This is definitely a labour of love, which is rare in AAA gaming. It's sad that a lot of people are just dumping on it because it doesn't fit their preconceptions of what a game should be. I don't want to be that guy who gets all pretentious about people just not getting it or whatever, but I think a lot of the problems people are having with this game is coming from their own lack of patience and willingness to take the time to understand how things work mechanically.    … Expand

    This game is very interesting and shrouded in mystery. After playing the game for 8 hours I can say I am really enjoying this game! Something different, FINALLY! Instead of the same recycled crap. HATS OFF to Kojima and His team for giving us this fantastic game!

The mechanics are striking for these first few hours as you will find the simple task of walking from one place to another laborious and seemingly without purpose. You will find yourself overwhelmed with the many in game systems and overly complex UI. The game, although understandingly having to explain a new IP, goes about introducing this new world in the worst possible way, by telling you with endless cut scenes and dialogue. The opening experience was so harsh i found no hope in the idea of completing this game. Those that are able to find the courage to push through, will be rewarded with one of the best games of the generation. Most everything beyond that point becomes clear and meaningful. Beyond that 5-10 hour mark, the game play becomes satisfyingly addictive corollary to the increased complexity as you introduce more gizmos, vehicles and weapons. The true purpose of that harsh opening becomes clear, serving as the benchmark to gauge how far you have come through your characters progression. The story is unique and introduces fantastic philosophical concepts, driving your purpose to completion. The voice acting and motion capture acting are unmatched, aside from maybe The Last of Us. The graphics, both in game and cut scenes, are as good as any this generation. The sound design pulls you into the world with natures sweeping ambiance. Moments go from serene, to horrific intensity and occasionally peak with musical relief when a landmark comes into view. The boss fights are wildly iconic and are sure to leave a lasting impact. Hideo Kojima's tone is thickly layered into every aspect giving this his signature staples of oddly enjoyable nuances. The social aspect is not the revolution it was made out to be, but does a serviceable job in making you feel like you are part of a connected world. This is truly a unique experience that goes beyond and maximizes what the video game format has traditionally offered over other story telling and idea conveying mediums. I nearly gave up on this game, i'm glad i did not.… Expand

    Death Stranding is more than a simple game. It's an experience. (you got to play past chapter 3 to really enjoy it at his full potential)

The moment to moment travel and exploration is amazing. It is true that this game is not a race, 15 minute FPS, or loot grind game. Many other popular games are instant gratification, low effort games. This is not one of those! But that doesn't mean that that player base can't absorb and immerse themselves into a game that is much more deeply fulfilling. There are so many nice travel details that I won't spoil but should be recognized and it is awesome to see the effects of all of the other players in your world. Very Cool.

    Some people throw around the words like boring walking simulator. It could not be further from the truth. Never has a game made traversal so engaging. The interesting thing is that compared to most open world game there is a lot less back tracking in Death Stranding and even that travel is meaningful. As the game progresses you can definitely bounce back and forth from spot to spot, doing side missions, and building up resources but that that is completely optional. I was 25 hours in before i thought to myself "now for a couple of back and forth side missions to see how a relationship would progress." Other than that I was just rolling along wholeheartedly doing what Sam does best.

    Death Stranding breaks the Point A activity.....boring travel, travel, travel (or fast travel loading screens over and over)......Point B activity. Completely turns that on it's head. The entire game has meaning and game play attached. Not just the ends of the line.

    Death Stranding is definitely a game built with love and care. You can tell with every detail and every word how much care went into making this game. There is plenty of that MGS quirkiness and charm that we all love. It just brings out the personality of this game that much more.

    This is one of those games that will be talked about fondly in 10-20 years. The value of this game will shine progressively brighter once the haters stop pounding the keyboards for Likes and as time passes and more people absorb the brilliance that is Death Stranding.    … Expand

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

    Obviously with a ton of user reviews, many of the people have never played it before. Many have watched youtubers do half baked reviews. Some read the IGN review, which hadn't even completed the game even though it was their job and responsibility to do so. A lot of mental conditioning for people definitely changed perceptions of the final product.

    As for how I feel, this game is a slow burn and a beautiful cumulative journey. It took about 10 hours or so for it to really start clicking for me. I challenge people who are on the fence with this game to Redbox the game or borrow it from a friend and at least get through Chapter 5. I also suggest they focus strongly on story missions ONLY to that point, unless they really get sucked in to the gameplay loop. The game slowly trickles exciting events and better gear, then all of a sudden really takes off.

    As the final credits rolled, I realized I had never experienced a game with such a sense of journey and adventure before. The parts that are difficult or a bit boring are completely intentional - they lead to much bigger highs later. From Chapter 9 onwards, I couldn't put the controller down and I pulled an all nighter to complete the story. I haven't done that for a game since... At least 10 years ago.

    The story has some camp, but it is packed with emotions and some well thought out philosophies. You can feel the Kojima brand humor and story bits throughout. You can tell that his personality is a deeply thoughtful and conflicted man, while also a goofy side who wants to have some fun. This isn't for everyone as the tonal shifts can be jarring, but to me it is perfect. This is easily his most complete story ever. Even Metal Gear Solid (PS1) gave a feeling of unresolved issues (intentionally), whereas this game gave no obvious hints towards a direct sequel. Yet I want more from this universe.

    If memorizing a bit of jargon and immersing yourself in a strange world isn't your thing, you'll be turned off. If you just want to turn on your console for 30 minutes and have a few rounds, this isn't your game. This game requires you to immerse yourself and empathize with the characters. You have to project a bit since saving Amelie is your goal - a big sister role that people have criticized. "Why do I care about her? I haven't interacted with her." Detractors will say, and I agree to an extent, but I think it goes without saying this person who helped raise you and look out for you (Sam), that Sam has a family love for, is someone worth saving. You don't have any connections with others at the start, but by the end you'll have made a lot of connections with a great support cast.

    Go in with an open mind and recognize this isn't an arena shooter, an MMO, a looter, or even a tactical espionage game. This is something completely different. A cohesive narrative intertwining with a gameplay loop that ties directly into its philosophy. It is an adventure and any real adventure has highs and lows.    … Expand

    A deep, introspective and emotional story filled with philosophical and scientific concepts and themes, creativity, originality and above all a heart.
    This is a lesson in storytelling where the journey is not only part of the experience, but it also tells a story of its own. The combat was simpler than MGS V The Phantom Pain, but it still plays well and    DEATH STRANDING is a masterpiece.

    I have found the ‘flame-war’ between those that love Death Stranding and those that don’t pretty illuminating about today’s society, particularly attention spans.

To be fair, there are some who have played through it and still didn’t enjoy it but that is true in allI have found the ‘flame-war’ between those that love Death Stranding and those that don’t pretty illuminating about today’s society, particularly attention spans. Of all the ‘haters’, almost all have done little more than dabble with Kojima’s opus... some haven’t even played it! To be fair, there are some who have played through it and still didn’t enjoy it but that is true in all entertainment. For instance, my missus hates Breaking Bad... one of the best examples of television entertainment of all time and there are some people out there who have struggled through the debatably slow first season and still don’t enjoy it. Most of Breaking Bad’s detractors don’t get past episode 3 though and I’d imagine that it is a similar scenario with Death Stranding and it’s detractors.

    I’m 50 hours in and am enjoying it immensely. I have struggled to convey ‘why’ it is enjoyable to my friends and colleagues though, as they can not seem to get past the (extremely) basic premise that it’s just a fetch-quest walking simulator. Well Breaking Bad is ‘basically’ just a story about a teacher who gets cancer... but anyone who has watched Breaking Bad will know it is far more than that. And so it goes with Death Stranding.

    If you have played The Last of Us and gotten to the famous Giraffe moment, you’ll know how powerful a moment within gaming can be that doesn’t actually involves any particular gaming technique of the player. You basically just guide your player through a door using the left analogue stick with no inherent danger or drama... but after a notorious slog through dark and infested corridors and rooms you are eventually greeted with an example of beauty. I think about this moment a lot when playing Death Stranding. Kojima has managed to include a fair few moments here that illicit similar emotional punches (all directed beautifully so it ‘feels’ like a moment only you would have stumbled upon). death Stranding then goes one better than the Giraffe-moment of The Last of Us by offering so much versatility in how you tackle the same journey/slog moving forwards. The game teaches you how hard a journey can be the first time you make it and then the next time you need to travel in that direction it presents you with a variety of tools to use to make what was once a 3 hour slog of endurance a 2 minute breeze... and the personal satisfaction you gain from creating your own solution is surprisingly real.

    On top of the above, the game is visually stunning! Up there with, if not succeeding God of War as the best-looking game I have played. The sound track is up there with, if not succeeding Nier: Automata as the best sounding game I have played. The ‘social’ network is more than a novel spin on Dark Souls messaging service... I have lost count of the times another player has helped me in my journey and I like to think I have done the same (my ‘likes’ counter suggests that I have... which is also incredibly gratifying). The story, presentation, acting etc is all top-drawer.

    If you are a fan of gaming as a medium of presenting entertainment (rather than gaming to kill 15 minutes) you will be doing yourself a disservice to listen to the naysayers out there about Death Stranding. It has to be experienced and given time to breath to fully appreciate and if you do so I’d imagine it will be worth most ‘gamers’ time.    … Expand

    Death Stranding is a monumental undertaking that is a among the best experiences in recent years. I may be biased as Hideo Kojima is my personal icon that I strive to be like everyday but... for a first time project away from Konami he knocked it out of the ballpark.
    This game not only helped me with facing some emotional issues i've been having over the past few months and Norman Reedus    Death Stranding is a monumental undertaking that is a among the best experiences in recent years. I may be biased as Hideo Kojima is my personal icon that I strive to be like everyday but... for a first time project away from Konami he knocked it out of the ballpark.
    This game not only helped me with facing some emotional issues i've been having over the past few months and Norman Reedus as Sam to me is a personification of my mind state, granted Sam and all his other allies and adversaries are equally as interesting, Margaret Qualley as Mama delivers a performance that is the best of her career so far and Troy Baker as Higgs proves he can create compelling villains as well as heroes like Joel and Booker.
    The gameplay is extremely repetitive however this adds to the theme of isolation and rebuilding as Sam is for 99% of the game by himself only being supported by the Bridges team over the Codec (Nice Metal Gear reference) and the countless preppers the player will encounter throughout the game but the boring gameplay evolves into an addiction by Chapter 4 as the player is given countless ways of delivering cargo and packages with Premium Deliveries adding some satisfying to complete gameplay modifiers, the whole delivery aspect of the game remains the same but further progress into the story opens up more opportunities like using ATV's to carry masses of Cargo and also traverse Rivers and Lakes like a small boat and Non Lethal weapons like Stun Assault Rifles and Slingshots (Bola Gun) to peacefully knockout every MULE or Terrorist between Sam and his destination/destinations.
    Whilst I may think this game is perfect there are two things holding it back one minor and one major, the minor one being difficulty or lack there of. In my 90 Hours with the game (My copy arrived early) I never died once and that was on Hard Mode simply put the only difficult aspect of the game is inventory and cargo management but even so Kojima can make experiences that are challenging.... maybe not to the extent of European Extreme in Metal Gear Solid but something somewhat challenging would be appreciated and as it stands right now the game is a breeze even on Hard which to me is kinda a joke considering the themes and messages in the game.
    Finally the point that everyone reiterates and that is subjectivity. If you as a reader are the kind of guy or gal to play Fortnite and Yearly Releases then this is definitely not the experience for you it has so much quiet and slow moments that you might be burned out after the first 2 hours if this isn't your kind of experience. But if you are a Metal Gear or Kojima fan then this is a no brainer supporting the legend behind those innovative experiences. And please please please do not spend money on this game if you are on the fence and have friends or acquaintances who are telling you not to play it then follow their advice or wait for a sale.
    Overall Death Stranding is an experience like no other that encapsulates the best the industry has to offer and then some.    … Expand

    I find the game play fun and addicting. Just a wonderful world to be in and the story is done so good. I have been dreaming about the game when I go to sleep, and before this game I can't remember the last time I had a dream.

    This is excellent, new, rewarding, and entertaining. It's not for a casual player, or someone with short attention spans, and is not going to be enjoyed by all. The gameplay is purposeful, and the mechanics are very hardened and feel real. I love all the dialogue and learning more about the world, as well the idea of connecting the entire world and the points on the map.

It is hard to describe it but they have made walking and managing an inventory fun, accompanied by images and camera work rivaling a hollywood movie. The lore is also phenomenal, rich with subtle satyre about the meechanization of what was once trivial and natural (parts of the deliveries are oxycodone boxes to induce happiness, while the enemies are workaholics… Expand

    One of the most unique experiences I've played this year. Everything from it's world, characters, to different mechanics is captivating and fresh.

    Majority of gamers (not all), who are spoon fed with games that are essentially about killing and competition at it's core will dislike it. Probably because they won't understand it, they will think it's something bizarre and boring.    One of the most unique experiences I've played this year.

Probably because they won't understand it, they will think it's something bizarre and boring. Planning, overcoming difficult situations without the use of weapons and helping others is not something they are accustomed to in games or in other mainstream media. They will write it off as a boring and simple delivery simulator, no, it's not boring and simple. Yes, you do deliveries in the game, but that's far from describing the full gameplay loop. It has a little bit of everything, switching it's priorities from action and killing, to planning, hiding and helping.

    In a world when the average gamer has an attention span of a goldfish, where battleroyale is the most popular genre, this game will stay a polarizing art piece.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I didn’t pre order this game, I knew nothing about it. I bought the game 2 days after release after watching some gameplay and reading reviews. This game is amazing, the visuals the sound design, the gameplay itself. It is slow to start I’ll grant it that, if you like combat it’s in there, it’s not in your face all the time and more often than not you can sneak or silently take out enemies. However if you want to get into some fights and make it at high action game, it can be that too. Jump into a pack of BT’s and fight the catcher which is like a mini boss fight. Run into a group of MULES and punch to your hearts content. The game can be played how the player wants. I prefer sneaking and only getting my hands dirty when I have to and so far it’s worked. The story is crazy, it’s so **** up and weird... it’s good! You do deliver a lot, that’s the point of the game but the story and character development and acting is second to none and who knew delivering could be so fun. You have to plan your routes, avoid the BT’s and take the long route or go straight through them risking your cargo but it’s shorter. Ride a trike straight through if you’re feeling like a daredevil or leave it behind and go on foot. Pack ladders and climbing rope or leave it behind and hope the countless of other players have left assistance along the way. Inventory management is a big thing in this game but it makes you think about what you’re taking and do you really need this equipment for this run? If you really can’t be bothered manually sorting your inventory out then you can just use the auto inventory manage button, but bare in mind this doesn’t take into account item fragility, the cargo you’re delivering could end up being squished under countless other cargo crates. Playing online makes this game even better, other porters (players) can build roads, bridges, watchtowers and whatnot which you can then use and upgrade. It gives you such a sense of achievement when you start a bridge or road and the next time you roll through that area the bridge is complete or the road stretches on into the distance. The sense of community really shines through. Read maps and tips/info carefully as you can end up getting pissed off if you don’t read something correctly and end up walking miles just to realise you left your cargo behind. This game is going to be a love it or hate it, but give it time and I think you’ll come to love it if you invest time into it. It’s brilliant, enthralling and you may just find yourself not being able to stop. 9/10!… Expand

As for gameplay, it's much more complicated than "just walking". There are a ton of weapons, gear, towers, bridges, and much more to build and create both to help yourself and other players online. Every time you build something the game tells you when another player uses it.

    this game is beautiful and incredible. I went into the game nearly completely blind, having seen only the reveal and launch trailers, and it continually blew me away with just how good it is. I'm not going to talk about the story because I think everyone should experience it, even if just the cutscenes. But just know that it is video game storytelling at its finest.

I'm not going to talk about the story because I think everyone should experience it, even if just the cutscenes. But just know that it is video game storytelling at its finest. As for the gameplay, while it may not be for everyone I thought it was done very well and tied into the story nicely also. Even though the majority of it is walking, the path from A to B is so varied and enjoyable that it still manages to be fun just delivering packages and keeping balance. There's variety in the mission types also, so it never feels like the same deliveries over and over again. You're graded as well, and it's actually quite satisfying delivering something through a tough path and getting an S rank and seeing the npc actually be happy about it. And the better you do, the more upgrades received, which you're constantly getting anyway. The few moments when the game does have some action are when it actually does struggle a bit. Boss fights against BTs, which are the majority of the combat segments, are fairly boring because you stand and shoot, and if you die you can just repatriate with no real punishment. The wave-based encounters against Cliff are better, but the gunplay itself still feels a bit unpolished and there's not really enough healing items to use most of the time(at least on hard difficulty, which is how I played the entire game). It's not really a huge problem though, as combat encounters are few and far between and really just serve to spice up the game play a bit. And they're more than made up for by the one real bossfight in the game, which is insanely well done. All the gameplay is elevated by the soundtrack, which is also very good and well picked. The Low Roar tracks that play sometimes during exploration really help set the melancholic atmosphere and are perfectly suited to the climbing around you do. the song during the final chapter, BB's theme, also does its job in the best way possible. I only wish some of the tracks would play more, it's kind of rare they actually come on while making deliveries and the only music player is in the private room. Lastly, the way the indirect multiplayer is used is genius and really embodies the game's theme of making bonds. I really can't say how many times I was saved by someone's generator or safe house I came across while low on supplies, and gaining likes from real people who used what I placed down genuinely made me happy.
    So overall I'd rate Death Stranding 10/10. And, if anyone is wary about playing it from all the negative *American* reviews, I'd say go for it if only for the story. It's definitely worth it.    … Expand

    Despues de terminar el juego puedo analizar y sacar mis propias concluciones , HIDEO KOJIMA lo a vuelto hacer , para mi es un increible juego que se siente bien desde principio a fin , es un juego que va avanzando a su medida , cada recorrido es distinto en cada partida , y todo es acompanado con una grandiosa musica tanto ambiental como musical que esta muy bien implementada , laDespues de terminar el juego puedo analizar y sacar mis propias concluciones , HIDEO KOJIMA lo a vuelto hacer , para mi es un increible juego que se siente bien desde principio a fin , es un juego que va avanzando a su medida , cada recorrido es distinto en cada partida , y todo es acompanado con una grandiosa musica tanto ambiental como musical que esta muy bien implementada , la sensacion de inmersion es buenisima , los personajes son realmente interesantes y cada uno aporta lo suyo , tienen su distincion propia como lo hacian los personajes de la saga metal gear , viniendo de su creador era mas que claro que se notaria , en cuanto al doblaje puedo decir que yo siendo de latinoamerica esta muy bien logrado , aunque soy de jugar con las voces originales , el idioma latino me gusto bastante , para mi es sin duda un juego diferente pero realmente bueno e interesante , se ve hermoso cada lugar , eh aqui donde mucha gente cometio el error de comprar algo por hype o sin siquiera entender lo que su creador queria transmitir y eso es justo lo que acabo de escribir atras , no es un juego enfocado al combate , no es un FPS , es un juego donde tienes que administrar ciertas cargas que sam (el personaje principal) va llevar ala espalda en los brazos o atados alas piernas para asi lograr recorrer largas distancias mediante un terreno complicado y aqui es donde la estrategia toma ese papel que muchos no estan tomando en cuenta , hay que saber por donde moverte , pensarte si escalar una montana o evitarla , si adentrarte algun campamento de las mulas enfrentarlos o pasar desapercibidos, si pasaras un rio a pie o colocar un puente para asi no terminar perdiendo el paquete o los paquetes que vamos a entregar , hay que destacar que las misiones de entrega son variadas , unas exigen un periodo de tiempo para ser entregadas , otras exigen delicadeza ya que son cargas fragiles y cualquier golpe podria arruinarlas , es interesante que medios vas a tomar para asi facilitar todo el recorrido , y es eso , un juegazo que se disfruta en cada recorrido planificando cada camino y cada entrega , afrontando claramente los peligros que se te van a presentar como los llamados VT esos seres que si te atrapan desencadenaran una arena para pelear con algun mini jefe , todo esta bien pensado , dentro de estos combates puedo decir que esta en su punto justo ,no son combates extremos pero si combates muy inmersos, es razonable pues se trata de seres a los que podras vencer con granadas de sangre que tu mismo puedes fabricar , hay que tomar en cuenta que no eres un soldado elite , no eres un profecional con artilleria pesada , solamente eres un repartidor , se entiende que dentro de estos combates haya un poco de simpleza pero eso no hace que sean malos los enfrentamientos ya que la inmersion sigue siendo brutal , en esto tambien agregar que nuestro BB va empezar a estrezarse y a llorar y eso le agrega un aspecto mas crudo y agobiante lo cual hace que la inmersion aumente y se sienta genial entrar a este tipo de arenas de combate , la duracion del juego es bastante larga y disfrutable , cada vez se van desglozando ciertas cosas que al inicio quedaban como dudas, y como no mensionar ese increible final que te va dejar impresionado , y puedo decir que su apartado online asincronico es un apartado muy bien implementado , las construcciones de otras personas apareceran en tu mundo y estas ayudan bastante y sacan de apuros en mas de una ocacion , tu puedes optar si usarlos o no , si dejar likes o no , ya seria tu decicion y asi funciona ese apartado es muy bueno realmente encontrarte con torres que te protegeran de la miasma, algun letrero que te indicara a lo que te podrias enfrentar en esa area , o quizas una escalera para asi facilitar la subida de alguna montana, es increible , no se si me este dejando algun detalle pero las ideas que HIDEO KOJIMA implemento estan muy bien logradas y ami terminaron por gustarme muchisimo , para concluir despues de terminar el juego puedo decir que no hagas caso alas malas criticas sin fundamentos , es aceptable que un juego no te guste pero por esa razon no la vas a catalogar de ser una mierda , hay que darse cuenta que detras del juego existe un equipo de desarrollo que invirtio tiempo y dedicacion para ofrecer algo nuevo y eso en mi caso es de agradecerse ,este es un juego que recomiendo ala gente que quiere algo nuevo e inmersivo , no es para todos por eso hay que resaltar que si buscas un fps o algun battle royale o algun juego que este de moda pues no sera lo tuyo, GRACIAS KOJIMA PRODUCTIONS!!… Expand

    This is going to be my first review, and it's going to be a very long one.

    There's a lot of different views and criticisms being thrown around by a lot of people that didn't play past chapter 2 or 3, so many people that didn't spend the 35-40 hours minimum it takes to really get any kind of grasp on this game and to finish the main campaign. I played for 78 hours, I delivered countless packages, medicine, supplies, and equipment to help people and even to help someone have a child that is in an area a doctor never could have reached, so the doctor operated remotely via equipment and the network we built. I've read all the emails I could, I've read all the interviews I could. I'm pretty sure I understand everything in the game completely and wholly.

    If a review says something about Death Stranding having a convoluted story or that it doesn't make sense, I promise you they didn't finish the game. And/or they didn't bother reading or listening to anything. This game is easily one of the best pieces of art and story every told in gaming history. In total I played 78 hours, I doubt there was more than 10-12 hours of cut-scene footage throughout the entire game in total, so at most the game was 15% cut-scene for me. Even if you breeze through just the main story, you're looking at roughly 40 hours of playtime and still only 20-25% cut-scenes. It's a lot, but this is a Kojima game where he's trying to tell a beautiful story with a very intricate narrative that will almost certainly surprise you as you piece things together in the end (it definitely does.)

    Some negative reviews talk about the actors and that it's just a movie with no game-play, they're wrong. It's an experience, something more than a game. The level of cinematography with the mo-cap and the real actors gives such a genuine feel to the game and makes you truly invested and care about the characters that only something like Last of Us comes close to in caring for the characters by the end of the game. This is nothing like any game you've ever played. This game is about creating connections, rebuilding a broken world, figuring out why the world is broken, and discovering a past, present, and future that really doesn't come together until a beautiful end that ties all the knots together.

    The cast of characters in this game is absolutely insane! I've seen people criticizing the game for their portrayal of female characters. The female characters are some of the best performances and the strongest characters in the entire game. The raw emotion that the actors gave for this game is award worthy (check out the behind the scenes mo-cap.). This game is bound to win countless awards for 2019 for performance, visual achievement, soundtrack, and for breaking the mode. This is what the gaming world needed and some people just aren't ready for it. A lot of players like they're re-skinned games 1, 2, 3, 4, 5. But it's literally more of the same and while that makes a lot of players happy, it doesn't really give us anything new to learn or grasp or to cause us to grow. This game makes you think about the future, yourself, what you're doing, what you're not doing.

    The game-play is fairly simple, you are delivering medicine, supplies, building materials to a dying world and building connections to build a network to save the world. In connecting the world together, and the people together you hope to find a way to stop the Death Stranding. Throughout your journey you build structures to help you on your journey back and forth thru areas connecting people together. Other structures from other real players that you're connected to start to bleed through and help you set up a network for success without having to use your bandwidth for building in your world. The more connections you make throughout the game and the more strands you create with other players, the easier your journey will be.

    Everything in the end culminates into the greatest gaming performance ever made to date, one that will probably change the face of many games to come. It truly sets a precedent for what we deserve from creators as far as effort and having MEANING! There's so much undertone about society and how distant we've all become. If you go from country to country everything is SO different. We're becoming more and more distant from one another, we need to reconnect. This game won't make that happen, but it will make some people think.

    This is Game of the Year, best performance, soundtrack, visuals, story and more. I play almost every big title and some small ones, and this game really made me feel. I am a fan of Kojima and his work, and this is probably the best of his work to date. Absolutely incredible.

    If you took the time to read this review and haven't played the game, I implore you to pick it up, wait for a sale if you have to. But play it yourself, don't miss out on one of the greatest achievements in gaming ever.

    Thank you,

    If you like grinding in GTA online or Elite dangerous, you probably will like this one as well.

    This game is absolutely brilliant. The fact the gameplay is based around delivering parcels is actually a welcome change than going from area to area shooting/killing people like in most games. The graphics/music/story/mechanics are all 10/10.

    Epic experience. This is a masterpiece no doubt, sad to see an adultered score on metacritic, that happens to geniuses they are not massively accepted.

    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.
