Anyone else stoked for Death Stranding?
I'm considering purchasing it. What's the overall consensus?

It's like infrastructure week magazine the game. It's like freshmen stoner philosophy. What if we're just prisoners of our technology? WHAT IF MAN!? Weve never been more connected but at the same time more distant man. WHAT IF THE INTERNET WAS POWERED BY THE WORLD OF THE DEAD MAN!? It looks like a phone but really its handcuffs and then instead said "what if he's just wearing handcuffs!?" JUST MAKE THE SUBTEXT TEXT. GO THE GAME: THE GAME.

MGS1-4 were all fantastic but Phantom Pain was a HUGE disappointment to me, so going off recency bias I haven't been too optimistic about this. I'll pick it up eventually, still don't a fucking clue what it is though. Maybe that's the point? I don't know.

The whole aspect of trying to traverse rocky terrain while trying to remain upright seems like the fucking doldrums of open world games.

Its like comparing mario to zelda. Sure the same guy made it but its not the same.

If youre a patient person that doesnt mind a game deliberately taking 8 hours to get going in order to establish a base line then id highly recommend the game.

Its unapologetically weird. It marches to the beat of its own drummer. The game does an excellent job of creating a gameplay loop that with each lap adds a new layer to the gameplay so much so that by end game it doesnt resemble those first 8 hours at all.

It takes the open expanse that breath of the wild did so well but it out does it; the players grow throughout the journey. You are rewarded for your time spent.

The ambience is top shelf. Sound and visual design are A+++. Among the best ever of any game from any genre. This engine will be interesting to see as its used more going forward.

And the community aspect (which i wont spoil) is crazy awesome and its the best use of online in a single player game ever

Itll likely tank in the states though. Shame too. Fastest selling new IP this gen in japan at least...but still...

Not for everyone though. It you want fast paced action and you dont want to wait for the game to earn those moments then skip it.

Sounds promising, it's on my list of 2019 games which I might eventually get started on in 2020. I am drowning in backlog. You just reminded me that I never started Breath of the Wild too. Damn it
