only Kojima knows!...I think even after finishing the game most people still won't know what the game is about...I do love the visuals, first rate facial animation

Is it still OK to not know what this game is about?
Over on the PlayStation Blog there's a message from Hideo Kojima:
"People have created 'Walls' and become accustomed to living in isolation.
"Death Stranding is a completely new type of action game, where the goal of the player is to reconnect isolated cities and a fragmented society. It is created so that all elements, including the story and gameplay, are bound together by the theme of the 'Strand' or connection.
"As Sam Porter Bridges, you will attempt to bridge the divides in society, and in doing create new bonds or 'Strands' with other players around the globe. Through your experience playing the game, I hope you'll come to understand the true importance of forging connections with others

They're using arousing levels of photogrammetry in this game. It's the same method The Astronauts used in The Vanishing of Ethan Carter.I pre-ordered the Collector's Edition. I really need that life-size BB Pod statue and case. lol
Btw, anyone else notice how incredible the graphics and environmental effects are in that trailer? Looks incredible. Sony really pulled something amazing off with that PS4 Pro hardware at that price point.

I just did the same after watching the trailer, thanks for the heads up. I'm pretty damn pumped up after watching, and I love my collector's editions.
The visuals definitely look fantastic, but I'm also really impressed with the animations. I'm glad we're finally getting to see some actual gameplay. Atmosphere looks incredible an varied, and those sound effects seem top-notch. I have big expectations.
Same here. I am really curious what a unhinged Kojima is able to put out there... Kojima is good at selling misinformation, and I think a lot of what we saw in the new trailer is minimal or even far from what we actually got from it. There is a lot more going on than what we've been shown. That World War 1 environment really looked cool, and I actually just watched Mads Mikkelson in Arctic the other day and I am pumped to see more of him in this.
Death Stranding– Release Date Reveal Trailer
November 8th 2019...
Not saying im hating on it. Might be a storytelling masterpiece in its own right. And it looks amazing. But watching 8 minutes of that made me just think about how boring the gameplay looks.

I gotta say, I can see where 4saken is coming from. Like 80% of the gameplay we have seen so far is just walking around a lifeless world. Seems like this will be a game that is mostly story.
I am still really interested in this game and I'm sure it'll be a trip one way or the other, but gameplay wise...yeah, I am not overly impressed.
I'm a big kojima fan, but i just hope "art" doesn't supplant an overall great experience. Trying to not get my hopes up is probably the root of my semi-skepticism.No, I get it. The gun play part in particular in the WW1 area looked a bit lacking. I’m hoping as we near release we see more substantial gameplay.

This is pretty much how I feel about it, too. If MGS5 is any indication though, it should be pretty solid at least, which would allow the creative storytelling to push it into "greatness" territory. This and The Last of Us 2 are the only games I'm even looking forward to for 2019.
I have a feeling both these titles will be on the PS5 as well just like TLOU made its way from the PS3 to the PS4. But...I don't think I can wait until the PS5 to play them as I've been looking forward to both for years.shows you just how dominant Sony is that they can release both Death Stranding and Last of Us 2 at the end of cycle and have zero concerns...most companies would just wait for the next-gen consoles before releasing their big games but Sony has so many amazing exclusives in the pipeline that they can throw them out any time...good luck Microsoft

lol, exactly. I'd love to be able to wait for PS5 to get the "full" experience because I'm certain they will be ported to PS5 as remastered or "complete editions," but there is no way I'd be able to sit on my hands and wait until that time. I have not been looking forward to a game as much as I am TLoU2 in a looooong time, and to a slightly lesser extent Death Stranding.
+10000...after that trailer I'm preordering it.
The only questionable aspect of the game I have seen is the large open areas. They seem rather barren. Of course it's hard to judge that without knowing the context of how the areas are used in game. Kojima does not release bad games, though. I trust it will turn out good.Death Stranding - Gameplay Demo Gamescom 2019
the game looks really weird even by Kojima standards...I really don't see this as being anything more then a glorified indie game masquerading as a AAA title...it's way too obtuse and obscure for the casual gamer and looks more like one of those David Lynch movies which gets a lot of praise for it's style over substance...this will not meet expectations...

Is there any more to the rumor of this not being a PS exclusive?
I'm sure that Kojima doesn't expect us to hike slowly across terrain for hours on end and will keep the game play interesting while doing deliveries, he just isn't showing everything yet (maybe vehicles, warping/portals, etc.). He didn't make us run across the map in MGS5, so I don't expect him to do that here either unless you're just making small treks from camp to camp or something.
There are vehicles in the game. It has been shown him riding around on a motorcycle. You can expect there will be other vehicles to you.Looks pretty good to me so far.
