Death Stranding review

How do you summarise a game like Death Stranding? It’s at once the most boring and bizarrely absorbing adventure you can have on the PS4, an unrelenting slog of a game that has very little respect for your time, but in its quieter, meditative moments, it’s like nothing else. It’s easy to foresee a lot of people giving up before the narrative really starts to unfold, and honestly, there’s little in the story itself that makes persevering worthwhile. Instead, it’ll be a combination of wanting to see every inch of this strange dystopian wilderness, a growing bond with the needy tank baby, and sheer determination to finish the job that’ll see willing players through. Death Stranding isn’t a memorable action game. It’s definitely not a stealth game either. It’s laughably self-serious, hard to call fun, and it will deservedly be the most divisive big-budget title of this console generation. But somehow, this endlessly weird game about walking mercilessly long distances with too much weight on your back is kind of brilliant too, and it’s something we should all be glad exists.

Alone but not lonely.

America is broken, and it's up to you to put it back together again. It's a tall order. A lot of people believe in it, but you're not sure you do. It'll take a lot of lonely, dangerous walks and exceptionally heavy lifting, and it's not really clear what America means in the first place.

Do you like walking Do you like building things Do you like delivering packages Do you like Monster brand energy drinks If you answered yes to all of these than this is the game for you!

Even though it's a USPS delivery simulator, it's a great one.

Great one and the most intense one for sure. One weekend in, I can definitely say I like the game. The core game mechanics does feel like a mini-game, but online features and a great story behind it make it a pretty deep experience. Hideo Kojima once again delivered, pardon me for the pun. If you have a PS4, this game is a must-buy.

Death Stranding review – delivering the goods

A work of unbridled ambition and imagination but also a pretentious, contrived, and frequently quite dull gameplay experience – Death Stranding is peak Hideo Kojima.

Even now, after finishing Death Stranding, I can't quite believe it's all over. The bizarre trailers that made no sense at the time; the social media posts; gameplay videos that slowly showed exactly

Death Stranding is a game that demands to be argued over and analyzed for years. It starts rough, and then gets better and better as it goes along, culminating in an ending that is both hugely important to its universe, and also very small and personal to Sam.
