    Death Stranding truly isn’t for everyone. A boring, repetitive walking simulator with a confusing and uninspired story. While it may have some positives, they really don't matter if the gameplay is **** Maybe Hackjimbo should just make movies, not scam gamers to buy this movie disguised as a game.

    Пустой симулятор ходьбы от псевдогения. Который в это раз даже в традиционно бредовый сюжет не смог.

    Storyline is good, gameplay is boring.... People pay 60 dollars play this game instead watching the CG.

A treta gerou a demissão do diretor, que acabou indo produzir seu novo jogo com a Sony como publisher. Desde então, Kojima liberava em doses homeopáticas teasers desse seu título que, segundo ele, era a criação de um novo gênero, que misturava cooperação online, elementos de stealth, sobrevivência e… entregas.

    Death Stranding finalmente chegou ao mundo e mostra que realmente é um jogo fora do convencional. Entretanto, diferente não é sinônimo de sucesso! Em outra palavras, a ousadia é um elemento que faz criar um hype, como o que foi criado em torno do novo jogo de Kojima, mas o jogador ainda é o grande juiz avaliador, e cabe a ele o julgamento final. E no meu caso eu posso adiantar: Death Stranding não é tudo isso!    … Expand

Promises so much and delivers a walking sim with a quasi sci-fi b.s. story. Its like a first year film student tried to shoehorn every concept he thought was cool into one narrative. Creating a meandering, nonsensical mess. The gameplay? Even worse. One of the biggest let downs I've ever experienced in gaming. And can be summed up in 4 words; FIFTY.......HOUR.....FETCH.....QUEST. With all the wonderful backtracking you might expect. Actually, quite possibly the most backtracking in video game history. Thats kinda all it is.
    Millions must have been spent on actors salaries, cuz I've never seen so many resources/hype/potential squandered in a videogame. On top of that the walking (ya know, the MAIN feature) is clunky and the combat is generic and terrible. Combat = use square to punch. . . . . .thats it. Until you get weapons that you soon realize arent needed. Cuz the AI is some of the worst of this generation and they go down with zero difficulty even on hard.
    So apologists say, 'its not about the combat'... OK well what IS it about? What other gameplay feature do you wanna hang ur hat on? Again..the combat and walking are not good! Lol. So they say 'story'. Its ridiculously bad! Lol. Ok well....'the feeling of bringing others together'. Oh, how could i forget that...we're only reminded of that after EVERY delivery/cutscene and it gets pretty old pretty quick. Ok, well 'helping others through multi player'.. Now that is an interesting feature (although not original) and seems to be the ONE thing that all the fans are clinging to. And will probably be the only feature salvaged from this game and implemented in others. But this alone does not make up for the rest. Not by a long shot. And if thats what makes this game a 'masterpiece', then jeepers creepers dudes...you got a LOW bar for quality in game design.
    I swear i think the pacing was so glacial because someone realized how shallow the gameplay experience was. So they padded it out and slowly added new equipment here and there. Along with overly complex menus/item management. All to give the impression of depth.
    They even implement a Facebook 'Like' system in the game complete with little 'ping' sounds meant to create a Pavlovian response in the player. That actually ticked me off. Dont bypass the player and f with their brain chemistry to make them think they're having fun like some cheap mobile game. Totally classless move. Along with the gross Monster Energy product placement? Yuck. As an experienced gamer I know when I'm having fun/and or being manipulated. And this was the least fun I've ever had struggling through a bad game. Seems to have worked on a lot of people apparently who think this is masterpiece for being 'different'. For them, the isolation and feeling of rebuilding with mellow Pop music was soothing...i was on board with that for the first 10 hours...then it dawned on me that this might be it. And that changed the whole vibe for me. It became more like listening to depressing music my maudlin drunkin Aunt would like, whilst working in an Amazon hub reading instruction manuals. FUN!
    This brings a last gen cult classic, Deadly Premonition to mind. The gameplay in that sucked lol. Almost intentionally, and it was weird as hell. Frustrating as hell too sometimes, bad mechanics yada yada. But its quirkiness and weird story made up for it. Also .. ( and most importantly) IT WAS BILLED AS SUCH. They let you know it was niche and charged accordingly. But Death Stranding is a AAA title with the full backing of Sony behind it that cost $60. Or even more if you went for bundles/stupid gold clothes. And we had NO idea it was basically a walking sim until we bought it. Shameful, dudes. Sony went out of their way not to show actual gameplay for a reason. . Sad state of affairs. Lotsa people feel burnt by this.
    If you genuinely like the game, fine. I can understand how some people would. I wont insult anyone who does. It does look amazing when you view the vistas as a whole. But the environments are COMPLETELY BARREN OF ANY DISCOVERY? huh? AAA title billed as open world, but with no point in actually exploring it. If anything it deters you from exploring cuz ur afraid of running into BTs or wearing your damn shoes out. That was probably the biggest face palm of the game for me.
    Outside the game itself, these fanboys and industry payola types who claim this is a masterpiece and that the rest of us should just 'go play COD' are really making jackasses of themselves. This isnt a 'reimagining' of what games can be..its exactly what they shouldnt be. A product placement incoporating, skinners box of a cash grab claiming to be ART. Heinous dude. Says a lot that they wouldnt and still wont even call it what it is....a walking/delivery/inventory management sim, tacked onto a horribly paced sci-fi movie with laughable and overly sentimental/melodramatic dialogue.
    Looks pretty though!    … Expand

    Kojima should try to make a movie not a game. The graphics are great, the design and look of the world feels nice, but this "art project" simply fails as a game. It's not fun. And the message that we as people should connect is also pretty straight forward, nothing "deep" as I expected here.

    Kojima as always are treated with super ego Man and sabor of The game industry bit in real facts he dos a pig job.

    This game alternates a movie with forced twists to a monotonous and unrewarding gameplay.

    The game presents various problems such as: absent difficulty (even opting for the hardest difficulty); flatness of the boss fight, without variety. Omnipresent and increasingly boring backtracking; painful artificial intelligence; Empty game environments to keep the graphic level high

    So let me start by saying I consider myself a pretty huge fan of Kojimas work and I adore the Metal Gear series and I even have a metal gear poster right on my wall!. I was pretty hyped for his next release and told myself to just ignore the haters calling it a walking sim o that it was too boring, Because in my mind I thought that the wait was going to be worth it.

    But here we are,    So let me start by saying I consider myself a pretty huge fan of Kojimas work and I adore the Metal Gear series and I even have a metal gear poster right on my wall!. I was pretty hyped for his next release and told myself to just ignore the haters calling it a walking sim o that it was too boring, Because in my mind I thought that the wait was going to be worth it.

    But here we are, release day and ive played 4 hours and I'm already so bored that I would rather peel potatoes at this point, I tried sooooo hard to make the best of it and have fun, but there is so much empty and boring parts that are not fun whatsoever. the rocky plains you travel on all look the same and there is nothing to do between point A and point B except to try and not lose your balance and fall of a cliff. The game feels like the walking sections were just tacked on and dont feel like an essential part of the game. Where the game shines the most is in its custscenes. And boy there are a TON of long ass cutscenes, I was finding myself to be 10x more entertained by the movie cutscenes rather than the gameplay. And thats not how a game is supposed to be designed. I love spectacle and a good story driven narrative but when you have only narrative and story via cutsenes and boring gameplay it seems less like a game and more like a movie. You can literally cut all the gameplay parts out and only upload the cutscenes to youtube and youd be experiencing the best parts the "game" has to offer. No need to hold up on the analog stick and walk for 20+ minutes doing nothing. No one wants to do that.

    Like I said it feels like Kojima put 90% of the work into the cutscenes and 10% into the gameplay. The gameplay feels like its just added on to give us something to do while we watch what is essentially a movie with a mini game added in so we have an excuse to use the controller for something. The game doesnt have enough dynamic gameplay elements to make the gameplay worth it, it feels incredibly dull and repetitive every time you are asked to bring this item to point B over and over again. The world has nothing interesting in it most of the time to hold my attention.

    I'm sorry but this game does not even deserve to be called a game, Its literally a movie with a mini game. Don't buy it, Go load up youtube and search up a video someone edited with only the cutscenes and just grab some pop corn and watch it.    … Expand

If the graphics were average or subpar, then I would have given it a score of 0. I just cannot get over the fact that it is so boring. It has a lot of repetitive doubling-back and forth (which I find very annoying in games). It's sad really. This game had enormous potential and I feel they threw it away.

    People out there giving it 10's also throw in claims like "you aren't intelligent if you hate the game" or "it's for mature and more refined people" instead of saying what makes it so good in their opinions. They lash out and try to pin the blame on you for no liking it instead of simply accepting the fact that some people will find its not that great of a game.    … Expand

Its mechanics are horrible and its Gameplay is unplayable Norman Reedus seems drunk the whole game because of the way he walks (and I have no doubt that I would be if I had to film or do all that nonsense in front of a camera) the story is not bad but it is not good either, it seems more like shooting scriptwriters running after a check and copying how much nonsense Kojima released through his mouth, than a thought-out and structured script, I was a fan of Kojima but now I understand that Konami was right and that someone explain to me that It has happened with the press release, it has been given a note that is not consistent with reality or they have not played it or I don't know, but the note is not really that from the beginning, I hope this is worth so that nobody thinks about buying This is my advice to hope that this game is PS + meat and it has cost me a lot to upload this to metacritic, I have closed my session 3 times and I hope this explanation makes you see that it is not review bombing that I know they are going to come out there and if you don't believe me playing the game there is no better teacher than pain.… Expand

    This game reminds me of employing strategies of moving/collecting junks (and the satisfaction that followed) in Fallout games. The element is there and I can't believe Kojima-san took this element into an addicting, fun 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.
