Customers regard the graphics, story, and soundtrack of Death Stranding as exceptional, frequently citing them as highlights of the game.

    ok heads up...it will take a few hours to fully dive into the story, so if you're not big on character development this isn't for you. Otherwise the scenery and scale of the world is amazing, the story had so many twists. Everything you think this is it im finally done...boom it goes deeper down the rabbit hole

    This game is not for everyone, it has very complicated mechanics that some people might find grueling and repetitive. However! This is a game that challenges you and gets better as you put more effort into it! Its dark, haunting, got beautiful music and such depth. If you play it for the story alone, you would appreciate this game

    This was the least expensive place to get this particular edition. I love Norman Reedus so this was a no-brainer. It is beautiful to look at and creepy at times. May be tricky for young players to navigate and understand because I am early on in the game and not sure I even completely understand it. I really like it, though.

    This isn't COD nor anything in that genre. This is very different, but a good different. The graphics were excellent, story line kept me hooked and gameplay wanted to make me finish the game and see everything thru as far as completing 100%. I'd give it a shot, especially if you're a Hideo Kojima fan (Metal Gear Solid series).

    Death Stranding is a great game. The story takes a bit to get into but enjoyable. If you like yearly releases that get shoveled out every year this game is not for you. Sure you deliver packages but it's about the journey. If you enjoy the works of Hideo Kojima like Snatcher, Policenauts, Zone of the Enders...etc it's a must play.

    I am not a big open world gamer, I like my FPS style. However, this is surprisingly different. It has managed to not only keep me playing and nervous in certain areas, but my 14 year old daughter loves watching my play it. You look at the clock and somehow its 3-4 hours later. I reccomend atleast a Redbox rental to try this out.

    My son was waiting a long time for this game to be released and he plays it whenever he can. He loves the graphics and excellent story and challenges it presents. If he stops playing for a little while I might get a chance to check it out. He gives it 5 stars since he considers it to be one of the best games he has ever played.

    Stayed for the cutscenes and music despite the awkward and shallow combat. The game is great to look at, cutscenes are top knotch, enemies aren't varied, BTs are boring to fight, bosses are just OK, not everything about the story makes sense together.

    4 or so hours in. Good game so far in my opinion, not everyone’s cup of tea. Game takes its time to get stuff out, does it slow, and seem to tell a great story. Do have a great feeling of loneliness, while also making you feel connected with others who aren’t there,

    A very unique game. More strategy than action. The story is good and Kojima is at his strangest. It’s a great game for a one time playthru. Great cutscenes. Great plot twists. I don’t see much replay value. I don’t want to make anymore deliveries after beating the story.

    Everyone says this game is a walking simulator but that is wrong. This is a strategy game where you have to determine the best ways to deliver supplies. You have to traverse the landscape and survive your journey. Good luck. The game opens up later into a different experience. Must buy!

    The storyline is amazing and well thought out. The gamescape is gorgeous and detail is breathtaking. The gameplay is exactly what you think it is delivering packages to places across a variety of landscapes and watching out for the rain and dead who haven't crossed over.

    I bought Death Stranding because I'm a huge fan of Hideo Kojima. I love the Metal Gear Solid games. Death Stranding is very unique and it's unlike any game I have ever played before. You have to have a lot of patience with this game to truly appreciate it.

    The graphic is cool, and impressive. The gameplay is slow for couple of first chapters. Basically, it is a walking simulation to entertain people during Covid lockdown.

    Amazing game! I heard the game was polarizing, and I can see why. It is not for everybody. It can be slow and uneventful at times but it is beautiful and satisfying to help and get help from others when playing "online". Playing the game is kinda therapeutic for me lol
