I've watched some gameplay vids and it seems to literally be a walking simulator. Looks beautiful of course, but it's just walking....just walking.

One of these days the meme that Kojima isnt a hack will die.

It seems like a cool art piece game but not one that is particularly engaging or extremely "fun" outside of that. It's something I'd like to experience for that very reason but I can see why people wouldn't like it (gotta say too that I don't own a capable pc or a ps4 lol)

Man I'm glad that I don't need other people to agree with my opinion in order to validate myself.

I'll play it and get an opinion on it myself. I'm not sure I'll enjoy the gameplay but I'm in it to see the batshit weird shit Kojima wrote.

It's pretty telling how so many people around here only believe reviews when they're negative


Thats because the industry worships Kojima. I like to believe that people learned their lesson from Metal Gear Solid V The Phantom Pain.

Edge is not reviewing it because it was so boring.

https://twitter.com/nathan_brown/status/1190182964530991104

He's saying that for attention. Later down the thread he says:
Edge 339, on sale next Thursday, has a four-page preview based on 40 hours with Death Stranding. There is no number at the end.

That's a review.

6.8 from IGN

https://uk.ign.com/articles/2019/11/01/death-stranding-review

lmaooooo


IGN doles out 8s and 9s to every low effort copy/paste Madden, FIFA, and Call of Duty game like it was a default decision.

Like their plagiarist opinions ever mattered.

That just means its even more telling when they dont shell out a high score for one of the most anticipated games of the year.

Plus, IGN gave Infinite Warfare a 7.7
A few FIFA games also got scores in the 7 range from them.

I know you're probably avoiding them, but reading the reviews of DS all I can think is "Man, [my name redacted]'s going to love this."

No just that I was hoping to see exceedingly high praise from a source I trust. Not sure what it would mean to agree with it since I haven't played the game

The whole gimmick with things you place in the environment populating the world in others players games leads me to wonder if people playing review copies are seeing an unusually barren version of the game which is why it seems so empty. If the community aspect plays out the way he's promising, this could be one of the most amazing first few months in a game ever as the whole world builds up and changes around you.

Which is a problem, because if it doesn't pan out that way it will be a giant boring slog.

You should probably quote the user you're referring to so they can properly respond. I would assume you mean myself but that can't be the case since I'm not "touting" IGN around. I just think it's amusing how Kojima's Death Stranding was being built up as the next best experience in video games yet when some reviews aren't stroking it, people make various excuses.

"These reviewers are just clout chasing"
"Well, this website doesn't put out good reviews anyways"
"Imagine needing a review to decide whether or not you purchase a video game"

Yep yep yep. I love Metal Gear Solid as much as the next guy. It's one of my favorite series ever but even I won't make excuses for Kojima. The gameplay itself looked abysmal from the trailers and footage. Several reviewers coming out and confirming such drives home the point. People really need to stop worshiping Kojima. He has some great ideas but he needs someone to reel him in. Some of these reviews paint out the game to be okay at best yet it's still 9/10 final score. Give me a break.

Not just walking, you have to deliver packages over and over again, while trying not to degrade your shoes too quickly.

You could only publish a review if you finished the game. Places like Edge gave up.

Even in the positive reviews they stress that it isn't for everyone.

Stressing it isn't for everyone in an "omg goty!" review is a sly way of saying that they wish they could score it lower, but are too afraid to.
