Current Events > Death Stranding is going to be straight trash fucking shit.

(+) Yeah! (+)

It looks like one of the most pretentious games I've ever seen.
---

The fact I can't use cheat engine to speedhack through the most boring parts/unskippable "cinematics" is why I won't get it
---

Clearly you've never played a David cage game.
---

Death Stranding is going to cleanse the filth from videogames while you horde your boxes of sludge you call Good Games.
---

It looks pointless like Shadow of the Colossus did, lots of running and occasional stuff.

Wasn't too bad then, it's just ight now.
---

Looks like a giant pile of anal shit.
---

Gameplay looks trash compared to MGS and a lot of the character models look off.
---

Its going to be great, sell, and get amazing reviews. I personally cant wait
---

I'm just concerned why Kojima thought it was a good idea to say "it won't get really good until like halfway through the game."
---

It'll be cringe pseudo-intellectual tripe as is Kojima's specialty but since it's Kojima and people want to appear deep they will talk about how much meaning it has while pretending it's good. As is tradition.
---

It looks the same as MGSV. When you're setting up equipment the screen looks similar, the movement looks exactly the same as well. And I'm also getting kinda tired of Kojima's weird pervy Japanese humor too

Which character models? The visuals seem to be one of its strongest points.

So you're saying is a Kojima game

---

Game of the year easily. Maybe even GOAT.
---

Btw, I don't see anything wrong with it being pretentious. I like Kojima's games just because of how batshit insane the stories can get.
---

Good Pretentious: Suda 51
Bad Pretentious: David Cage
Chaotic Neutral Pretentious: Peter Molyneux / Hideo Kojima

As a walking simulator/movie, I'll accept it as that. For actual gameplay? LOL! I just hope it's better than Man of Medan.

I don't know what the hell went wrong with Man of Medan, lol. The same guys who made Until Dawn just made mediocre to shitty games ever since.
---

Kojima has crafted enough of a cult of personality around weaboos and morons that it doesn't matter how shitty his games are, they'll always have a market.

And this is coming from a guy that loved most of Metal Gear Solid. Even MGS4 was fun for the short bits you got to play.

Death Stranding just looks like garbage. Kojima can't get anyone to fund a movie so he just keeps riding off the success of Metal Gear Solid.

MGS3 and Snatcher were both excellent

I'm not saying all his games are bad. Hell, I still loved MGS V for the gameplay even though I talk about what a disappointment it was.

But the fact is, he has a cult of followers that think he is above all criticism, and it's leading to a game that looks absolutely awful to play.
---

MGS 3 is, in my opinion, the only game where Hideo Kojima's ideosyncrasies fit the theme and atmosphere of the game (60s spy motif) in such a way that they were cohesive and logical.

---

I don't think we will ever know if this is really a good game or not. There would be people who look at this and say this is crap and will not give it a chance , then there are Kojima fan boys who think MGS V was good.
---

Kojima has yet to make a bad game and I dont expect him to start now when he has a lot to prove being on his own. Everybody who has played it behind the scenes has praised it.
---

Theres never gonna be another Hideo Kojima. We'll get new polished Marios, we'll get photorealistic racers, but we're not gonna get Hideo Kojima games after hes gone.

Love him or hate him, he is truly unique. Hes the absolute best Hideo Kojima there is.

We will. There's gonna be some unbiased people who will review it regardless. Mostly on Youtube I imagine.

MGSV is the best thing he ever put out once you use mods to fix the issues
