I haven't played Death Stranding, but I think it's fair to say that if you didn't like MGSV, you're not going to like this.
I, on the other hand, think MGSV is probably the best game of this generation, so I'm excited.
I am not sure this is what this actually isI remeber when Kojima games were basically the only AAA games with LGBTQ representation, glad to to see there will be some in Death Stranding.
I mean, that's a trailer, of course it'll just be out of context quotes. Have you seen Control's trailers for example ? It's just a compilation of weird sentences that kinda make sense when you play the game.
Oh and I don't think the game is pretentious (although I believe the whole marketing of the game totally is). I don't get people who think something they don't understand (yet) is instantly pretentious.
Agree, I was super into it before I actually learned what the game is. I really want to like it, it has some interesting elements but now It just feels pretentious, and .. boring.Honestly...not all too interested in this game. It looks cool graphics aren't that great but decent yet it seems so boring.
That part with Die Hardman without the mask almost looks real.
You won't. I know the final ending already :/.how the fuck am i gonna survive the spoilers until the PC release
There it is, one of the most abused words on this forum.Agree, I was super into it before I actually learned what the game is. I really want to like it, it has some interesting elements but now It just feels pretentious, and .. boring.
I'd expect to have some level of understanding after 8 minutes of nothing but exposition. I've never seen so little said with so many words.
A trailer is supposed to convey an element of the story or purpose of a piece, offer an insight into what's going on and why - or what you'll be doing as a player.
This doesn't seem to do any of that - in fact it does quite the opposite. It befuddles. Which is a shame, because this overshadows intrigue in the picture. There's a lot to explore here visually.
It's fine though. I doubt this trailer has changed many minds. I doubt it was designed to.
doesn't make it less true in this case
Twitter comments :/From reading spoilers or just what you guessed from the trailer?
Don't agree, we don;t even know enough to say this..i'll play the game before judging. People use this as a crux in most Kojima threads, doing something off-beat different does not mean pretentious. Its lazy criticism same as "Boring" or "Generic" is.
This. Cant fucking believe how hyped kojima can make one go. Jesus christ.
Game is gonna be so divisive. This is a new take I have. No one has said this before me today.
I have been following DS and saw some of the story developments in the spoiler thread: Dont watch it. Its incredibly spoilerish. Theres almost no gameplay. Did you watch the launch trailer for MGSV? Its on par with that in how much plot beats they show just because.Dammit I want to watch so badly but the spoiler warnings.... help
What? gameplay is empty?Damn it. It's sad to see such a good trailer when you know how empty the world and gameplay actually is.
Watched it again, man, it should have been just half as long. It just trails off into visual nonsense after 4 minutes. What a terribly edited trailer.
Jesus Christ what an insane trailer.
From everything I have seen this could rival BotW as my game of the generation
Damn it. It's sad to see such a good trailer when you know how empty the world and gameplay actually is.
No clue what the fuck is even happening in any of the scenes but my god does it look incredible.
