Two of my buddies are saying that it's actually pretty phenomenal.
So I guess I'll give it a shot.

I got it as a gift for my birthday last year. I've literally never opened it.

Most of that stuff should have been a free patch a few months in, not an exclusive PS5 re-release.

Same work buddies actually, said it was goty and the platinum it.

Bought it last year and completed it. And I gotta say it was pretty freaking awful especially by kojima standards. I'll be starting clear of any game made by him again.

Eehhh the core game is still walking from point A to point B. There's some cool ideas in it for sure.

The main problem is how nonsensical and unsympathetic the main story is. Remember all the jokes about an "Eat Standing" twist based on what letters are dripping strands in the title? The game actually fucking pulls something similar to that where the name Amelie is broken down into "Ame Lie" meaning "Soul Lie". The main storyline is just pretty bad, all the journals and world building you get comes in read me files that are just technobabble and spiritbabble with nothing insightful or remarkable inside.

Your codec team is a bunch of stiffs until like two thirds of the way through when Deadman gets in the shower with you and explains that DieHardman isn't trusted

I will say the last chapter of the game, which doesn't deal with the main plot so much as a recurring side thread, is WAY better than the main story and almost redeems the narrative by way of how fucking good it is. The game is like a senile family member suddenly looking you in the eyes and saying something profound.

What Kojima needs is some non-Yes-Men to tell him how not to be a George Lucas.

I stopped playing the game when I heard about this re-release and I'm still anxious if there's cross save or even some sort of upgrade.

At the very least I'm expecting to have to pay like for the new content to get the upgrade.

Hopefully there's news later today.

I mean, I'll always respect Kojima as an artist, and I respect that Death Stranding is the game that he wanted to make...but Death Stranding is maybe the worst game that I played last gen, and adding even more combat feels like a bad move, IMO.

It was already very good. Now it'll be even better.
