Yes. I don't know why the op thinks players equal sales.

I don't know why the game is so hated around here, but I enjoyed it quite a bit and couldn't put it down even after the credits rolled. Well deserved as far as I'm concerned. You can say all you like about it being a walking simulator etc. (that's not a bad thing on its own) but we should at least give Kojima some credit for trying something different than everyone else.

Yeah, if people like something you don't there has to be something wrong with them.

Very happy for the team.
Great so see games like this can still sell.

How do you do this? My main problem with the game is how long it takes to go from point to point if you can’t take a vehicle.

You need to reach a point in main story and zip lines will be unlocked.

I’m there but how do you plant them?

Just like everything else. You need to have materials to build them on you. You’ll see if they connect before you place them. You can also upgrade them to cover more distance with fewer zip lines.

Cool. Go back to playing cod, casual.

Death Stranding is a form of art. Not all people understand art. Most of them have no problem shooting mindlessly in Call of Duty, yet they are making fun of a game that you need to check the path you will take, calculate in advance your gear and survive. I understand that this game is not for everyone but….come on, why so much hate? The game is nicely developed and executed.

Incredibly repetitive and tedious gameplay + Kojima's convoluted and padded story.

Fair enough about the story, but I disagree about the gameplay part. There is no 30+ hour game that doesn't have repetitive gameplay. Almost all games do so singling one out is dishonest. It all comes down to whether one likes the gameplay loop or not, the repetitiveness is a given.

Whole point of the game is travers. You start out with minimal means then gradually build logistics tools and infrastructure throughout the game world. If you are online you can use resources from other players and combine with what they built.

Only in the prologue are you actually forced to walk. I used bikes and trucks almost exclusively and in the end game you use zip lines.
The game is actually very casual.

Such a good time with this game, still need to get back to the Directors cut and use those crazy cargo launchers etc. Put a lot of time in at launch though, truly gorgeous at times and like nothing I have ever played.

I wish it was like that.
It's far too forgiving and far too simple.
But I'm not going to hate what i loved so much to play.
The point of the game is the journey, the eeriness that is created between what we are familiar with and what it is unrecognisable with that idea of familiarity.
So in the end making it as I would have would have destroyed the concept i loved so much.
So, yeah, it's a form of art that in a way, it prediliges the poetry in its execution over the gamey execution.
It's a romantic game, an in motion "Wander of the sea of fog".

I enjoyed it.
Mind you, I literally just played through the main story and ignored everything else.
By time I finished I was sort of fed up with the game in all honesty, it was repetitive as hell but somehow kept me interested.
But yeah, definitely hit a cliff near the end but overall surprisingly liked it.
