Death Stranding (PS4, Nov. 8th 2019) Video Game • Page 4

buying this tomorrow but not sure when i can play it. looking forward to it. im looking forward to the gameplay more than the long cinematicd

 

starting this

 

Finally got time to start it, on episode 2. Really enjoying it so far.

 

wife and i are arguing who plays this first.

and i lost

 

Just got to E3 apparently this is where it “gets good” which is wild because it already rocked.

 

Didn't have much time to play today, only got to the beginning of episode 1, but the prologue already was great, and I had maybe like 15-20 minutes of gameplay lol. I'm already in love with the visuals even though I have no idea what the fuck is going on

 

The balance will shift to gameplay almost exclusively soon enough.

 

Oh I don't mind cutscenes at all, especially when they're trippy af like this

The MGS series is one of my favorites for a reason lol

 

only played the prologue as it was 2 am last night. some fucking wild shit. the visuals are what’s keeping me going haha. the image of the five bodies floating on the horizon was so haunting

 

I heard the boss fights leave a little to be desired? Any truth to this?

 

100 percent true so far. But there was like one after 10 hours.

 

This is scarier than I expected, bring grabbed by BT’s is horrifying

 

yeah when it grabbed me and turned into a whale i lost my shit

 

That music that comes on when you're near is crazy. The first time I heard BB through my Dualshock was eerie.

 

Anyone else get this yet

 

LMAO Die Hardman

 

The trophy for doing a piss? Yeah!

 

The more you play it's like yep this is definitely a Kojima joint. All the quirks and auteur sensibilities are there. He still wanted to make a movie game, only instead of taking inspiration from campy spy and 80's action film genres, the goal for Death Stranding seems to be tapping into some zeitgeist. At times it reminds you of a sci-fi film in the wheelhouse of Alex Garland or Denis Villeneuve or something. Dude has grown tons as an artist, assuming he wasn't holding back all this time.

 

I still haven't listened to that CHVRCHES song because I want to experience it in game (assuming it does of course) and it's starting to drive me nuts.

 

I’m 35 hours in and no chvrches yet

 

Damn, it's probably the credit song lol

 

It is.

 

Well something to look forward to

 

Definitely haha

 

how long is this expected to be?
