Death Stranding Director's Cut - Kojima's post-apocalyptic deliveryman simulator

[ADL]

I was half expecting 505 to price gouge like they did with Control Ultimate Edition. $9.99 is fair for what they're putting into this.

Exactly what Hollywood needed: Yet another pseudo intellectual hack writer.

I still don't get why it's called Director's Cut beyond Kojima really thinking he is a movie director. Then again, RE 1 also had a Director's Cut version.

He wasn't the one to name it "director's cut"

My immersion increases x100.

 

[Viata]

Did they lost the rights for monster energy?

 

[Utgard-Loki]

why keep advertising if they stop paying you?

 

[Nifft Batuff]

Or Hideo don't need any sponsor anymore now.

FedEx kino is back on the menu boys

Just got this book. It's a collection of essays written by Kojima that were published in magazines between 2007 and 2013, mostly talking about his favorite books, movies and music that had an impact on him and inspired him.

 

[HeatEXTEND]

Is it any good?

Is it written in English or Kojiman?

Looks cool. On discount if you buy through Amazon today. I ordered it.

shouldn't he have opened an office in yurop instead so they get to help make his movie non-games?

Has anyone reviewed Death Stranding in 2022?

 

[SumDrunkGuy]

I wouldn't play it if it was free. Game looks mind bogglingly retarded.

 

[Bigg Boss]

It should be right up your alley then!

 

[Gamezor]

It deserves some flack for the long silly cut scenes and the silly names, but the actual gameplay is Unique and interesting, especially as you get more tools to play with. The codex sees all the silly cut scenes and shits on Kojima—and some of that is deserved—but he has some really fun and interesting gameplay in his games with a high level of polish.

 

[Cyberarmy]

You just need to endure a long beginning sequance with lots of cutscenes, that can be a bit off putting. But after "orientation" part, cutscene vs gameplay ratio evens a bit.

 

[Talby]

The long cutscenes are part of that Kojima charm. Unlike war, I hope he never changes.

 

[elverkongen]

I tried out this game fully expecting to think it was absolute shit. 70 something hours later I'm making the final delivery, tears in my eyes. It's not a perfect game by any means, but it's truly evocative. The world has character and scale that you feel, especially before you start building out your zipline network. Come to think of it, building my own zipline network was pretty fun - choosing optimal locations for the towers, sometimes at the top of high crags, sometimes along a ridgeline.

I'm pretty cynical about games these days but Death Stranding was an experience I haven't been able to forget.
