It’s Kojima. You could spoil any detail from the game and it’s not giving anything away because none of his poo poo makes sense in the first place. The dude sucks at storytelling.

The main character, who carries stuff from one place to another, and builds bridges literal and metaphorical in an effort to rebuild the United States, is literally named Sam Porter Bridges. It’s like Kojima went to the first 20 minutes of a writing workshop then checked the gently caress out to go home and write the great American novel.

Whislt Sam Porter Bridges, a Porter who works for the Bridges, is an incredible bit of nominative determinism you can't overlook the other incredible names in the game. Like Die-Hardman, Deadman, Amelie & Bridget Strand (Nudge nudge wink wink), Heartman etc.

the otter hood he gives you is hilarious and I haven't taken it off since I got it

and I think the gameplay rules, it's genuinely fun and satisfying for me to traverse some rough terrain and then build up the infrastructure to make future trips easier and easier. I'm currently working on a network of zip-lines to make the mountain areas trivial and fun

Well, it's a walking simulator in the same way that Shenmue was a simulator of having your dad get murdered and then dropping out of high school to play arcade games and drive a forklift.

I feel like this is actually a pretty apt comparison. Death Stranding is the first AAA game I can remember since Shenmue that is so very explicitly one man's singular vision, which diverges drastically from typical gaming conventions. Probably not much of a coincidence that I enjoy both.

I'm sure the magic of the game will still be preserved even if people are made aware of the existence of vehicles and bridges in it.

Farewell, good Hunter. May you find your worth in the waking world.

There is a two hour long cutscene at the beginning and end of the game. Literally a full length movie at each end, plus multiple hours of expositive cutscenes throughout. I have made the recommendation to a few others of just watching all the compiled cutscenes on YouTube. There are already many single videos with them all in order. It’s 14 hours. If you watch an hour here or there it’s akin to watching a show on amazon or 14 episode season of K-drama on Netflix or something. That way you get to take part in the Hideo hoe down and see a (fairly) cool story without having to play walking simulator.

I'd instabuy Death Stranding if it let you play as Venom Snake and was centered on letting you drive around with your dog analogue on open world rescue and kidnapping recruitment missions

Your characters name is Sam Porter Bridges, he's a Porter for the Bridges. If it's a spoiler that A & B Strand might be important in this game, Death Stranding, then I don't know what to tell you.

Kojima is basically Andy Kaufman for video games. It's not about you playing the video game, it's about Kojima thinking about the millions of people buying and playing his game

They are, but less in a "I don't understand this" way, and more in a "Why would anyone make this?" way.
