Customers are saying

Customers regard the graphics, story, and soundtrack of Death Stranding as exceptional, frequently citing them as highlights of the game. However, some players found the controls and pacing to be less intuitive and slower than preferred, while others noted a significant amount of walking. The open world and price point also received positive feedback. Despite some criticisms, many players found the game's unique features engaging.

    Great game, story is a bit crazy, but in depth. Hideo Kojima really has a lot of talent, and amazing story telling abilities, they really shine through in this game.

    Masterpiece. Can't recommend this game enough if you are a fan of Kojima games. It's dark. It's artsy. Not everybody's kind of game, but if you are looking at mature adventure games, this one is a can't miss.

    If you’d like an immersive time eating video game with good story and gameplay, Death Stranding is your game. It may not be for every time but it’s totally worth it. Best Buy’s pick up was fast too despite it was Black Friday

    I enjoyed Death Stranding but it's a difficult game to recommend. The core gameplay is literally just walking around a sometimes-harsh environment delivering packages. You'll occasionally need to use tools such as ladders or ropes. There's not much in terms of challenge. The story also isn't as great as I was expecting, it's a little cheesy and campy at times. However, it's a pretty chill and relaxing game, the environments are really pretty and it has a decent soundtrack. If you're a fan of any other job simulator games like "farming simulator" or "euro truck simulator", you might enjoy this.

    Kojima is a master at keeping you engaged in some ridiculous overarching themes of life and death in a post-apocalyptic world. This Sci-fi thriller plays like a movie. If you’re a fan of Kojima and his works, definitely give this a buy.

    This is a very different kind of game. It's hard to recommend it to others, but if you are a Kojima fan then you can kind of guess what you are getting yourself into. It's a very slow game.

    Death Stranding is like nothing I have ever played; beautiful, heart racing, heartbreaking, frustrating, epic, stunning, and utterly nuts.The story is interesting and engaging, the gameplay is fun and relaxing,

    If you're someone who genuinely loves a great storyline, THIS IS IT. Not only is it amazing, but the simplicity of the actual game, allows for the gamer to be a bit more.. entrapped within the game. Plus, great music choices and graphics.

    Different type of game but it’s good. It takes some getting used to and it’s not a typical game. You have to give the game some time and let it play out a bit. I really enjoyed it but it does take time to get into the game.

    Great game. More for more advanced gamers even though it’s a “walking sim,” still pretty fun and involved story.

    Death Stranding is a wonderful title, but you have to sink yourself into the adventure because it takes a while to catch the story. Once you understand what's going on, you immediately see that this is another masterpiece.

    Playing the game is enjoyable. I am not happy with all the cutaway scenes. You play for 5 minutes then watch a 5-minute movie. The graphics are top-notch while playing the game it moves very well.

    I enjoyed the game but the story is a little weird, although most of the time you're just delivering packages, there is something soothing about it and it is in fact fun, but not for everyone.

    You can assist other players through delivering supplies to infrastructure sites to build roads, build bridges, and other items or leaving items through post bins, which is a unique way of interacting with other players. The world is beautifully done too, but basing it in America was an odd choice considering the landscapes look nothing like this country. And that’s about all the good things I can say. The whole premise of the game are fetch quests, with boss fights being the side missions. This will be one of those single player games I’ll probably never play again.

    Such an interesting story, which is the reason you should be buying this game. This isn't going to be satisfying for FPS die-hards, but if a complicated, engaging, and interesting story is what you're after than give this a go.
