    Great game, definitely not a walking simulator. If you like being your own manager and helping solve world problems this game is a must. Thought provoking story and crazy how the game predicted Covid.

    Have yet to play this game, but I've heard great things about this story and I'm excited to immerse myself in the world. Came well packaged.

    I beat this game and loved it!! Still love it, and play it even after beating it. The story was great. The story and action in the beginning felt a little slow/ dragged out but immediately picked up and got better.

    A sequel that is better in many ways!

    A sequel that irons out the charm of the first game’s gameplay for more mainstream ideas. Thankfully it makes sense from both a narrative and lore perspective. Adding to that the narrative does a great job of raising the stakes in what feels like a possible conclusion.

    The game is great, the graphics are amazing but it's also not for everyone. If you have the money or if it's on sale pick it up and try it out! Also Norman Reedus is here so that's a plus

    Good game. Both a fan and not a fan of all the walking done in the game which is why I gave it a 4 star review. Awesome story done here. It’s definitely worth a pickup.

    This game is one of a kind! I have never played a Kojima game, so I am new to his games. This game is a masterpiece! The prologue had me hooked. I know the game is a "walking simulator" but I don't think so. One can traverse mountains, cliffs, and valleys which brings amazing background shots and gets you immersed into the journey as a porter. The journey is a deep and beautiful experience which not many games can master. This game pairs well with a 4k TV. The soundtrack is amazing! It suits the game really well. For those getting into the game for the first time, take your time and enjoy every aspect of the game. For those who stopped playing the game, I suggest getting back in because the new features of the Director's Cut make the experience better.

    Hideo Kojima Has Done It Again

    This is my 2nd time buying the game as I had already 100% completed the original release on the PS4. This updated PS5 release has extra content, and I will absolutely be playing through it and 100% completing it again. Don't listen to the haters who call this "UPS/Walking Simulator"...yes there is a lot of traversal, a concept that exists in most large open world games. The story is very well written, and even just the music tracks alone are enough to make me love this game. Hideo Kojima is by far one of the best game/story developers of his time. I cannot wait for the recently announced Death Stranding 2 to be released!

    Stranded in Kojima's World: A Casual Gamer's Take

    I got my hands on "Death Stranding" and, wow, what a ride! Playing as Sam and delivering stuff across a freaky, post-apocalyptic America was something else. The landscapes are crazy beautiful, but man, getting through them can be a real pain sometimes. It's not your usual run-and-gun game; it's more about planning your route and balancing loads, which can be kinda cool but also a bit slow at times. The story? Super deep and sometimes a bit too wild to follow, but it's got its moments. I mean, it's Kojima, so you know you're in for some weirdness. Overall, it's one of those games you either love or just don't get. I'm glad I gave it a shot – it's not something I'd play every day, but definitely cool in its own weird way.

    Not for everyone. The game is slow paced for the first few hours, and really nails home how dreary the protagonist's job is. A delivery man in a world stuck inside. Hit a little too close to home with all the lockdowns over the course of the pandemic. Worth a playthrough as the game goes full Kojima once you really get into it.

    Hideo Kojima's first game after Metal Gear and I think he did a pretty good job. The story is unique, and the graphics and the acting is top notch. The beginning could be boring to some but as you go farther in the game its gets better and better.

    Best game I’ve ever played. Not for everyone, but certainly for me. I found myself immersed in the world and the characters, which are all full of emotion and character, with the excellent facial capture technology and the phenomenal acting of Norman Reedus as Sam Bridges. This is the most beautiful stories ever told and the greatest game of all time.
