Lol trying real hard to pitch this game as an action fueled adventure in this trailer

I guess "in this game you carry a baby" doesn't sell as well

lol you called me out when I suggested it wasn't an action fueled adventure.

Hideo has a month to burn here, game is gold, he'll cut at least two more trailers. And one of them will have voiceover by David Lynch, just speculation, would be cool.

Oh... weird. I mean, they're both true? Gameplay wise its just a 3rd person shooter. There's nothing new here gameplay wise, its only creative in its setting and story. Its an action game.

But, for an action game, it has less than mgs5 or call of duty.

Like, they're simultaneously advertising it as being totally different but also look at all this normal action. And I'm pointing out both of those. That's the point. They're trying to cast a wide net, because of course marketing is just trying to sell as many copies as possible. I'm not allowed to note how this trailer focuses entirely on the action? While also noting that the game itself is just normal action with cutscenes?

Did you work on it or something?

I was talking about how a large part of the gameplay seems to be actually navigating the terrain instead of just fighting hordes of people all of the time.

Seems to be the game might be a bridge delivery service. Sam’s last name is Porter of all things. Maybe delivering stairways to heaven. (Samuel is godly/god’s name, and bridges is, well bridges)

PS5 coming before holidays 2020. So anyone considering waiting for that (myself included) will have about a year to wait to play Death Stranding.

Pretty much the timeframe I expected, but I also think backward compatibility/porting will be immediate. This isn't going to be like going from PS3 to PS4. It's just upgrading your gaming PC.

19 second load times down to 1-2 seconds. :chord:

I made a personal vow to finish everything I ever bought but only played a little of before buying something new, like an idiot a few months before this releases. Assassin's Creed Odyssey alone has more or less damned me to play Death Stranding on a PS5 Classic with my children and grandchildren gathered around, begging me to put down the controller and say something nice to them before I pass.

Hideo is the man. If I could pick one developer to lead a new game, it would be Hideo. And here's the thing, he's made a game, and the hype is rising as it comes out about one month from today. What I'm trying to say here, is there's gonna be a big game by Hideo Kojima, and it's going to be entertaining for several weeks! It took me like 150 hours to beat MGSV, and this looks like a bigger world, more in-depth and whatnot as well. Quite frankly I'm about to pass out just thinking about this.

Hideo and co. deserve it, give them the loot. And legit I hope this game is a big hit, and his new studio gets to flourish for a long time.

Good ol' 60 bucks will do for me. If that cargo case was a solid piece of luggage, that might be tempting. Got that Blade Runner blu-ray set, so I have at least one novelty sci-fi mini suitcase.

The gun Mads is using might be an ARAK-21, according to IMFDB, and the WW2 soldiers are most likely using M14's, which is also odd, seeing as it's more from the Korean War and the Vietnam War.
