For me the game being so divisive it's because of the promotion it got and the name behind the game.
We gotta give it to both Sony and Kojima, for marketing a game from start to finish surrounded by such mystery that even now players are clueless what this game is about. And the fact is, even those rattling about the game, are eager to test it out.
But as the curtain unveils, we start to see this is a title that tries to approach cinema and videogames very very close, even giving it at times way more emphasis in the cinematic experience rather than gameplay, it seems.
But I mean, trying to blend video games with cinema is not something new, just look at David Cage's games.
It's not like every game from here on out will try to copy Kojima's game 100% and we will stop having fun gameplay in games.
People are overreacting if you ask me. When I hear things like, "I hope the game flops, this is not what I want for videogames...". What seriously? As if this is going to be the norm from here on out...
This is clearly a niche game, made for those who want a more niche and rich experience.
If you don't like it, well go play some FIFA, COD or whatever.
