SwitchedOn Gamer writes: Death Stranding's box art is fine but leaves us wanting more, especially given how gorgeous the art has been in the build-up to release.
Death Stranding continues to spark conversation years later as its impact and relevance grow beyond its original release ahead of the upcoming sequel.
That's not proof, it's your opinion
which means you are lying, or you are a writer for a living who doesn't know what "prove" means
which is it?
On n4g, I frequently get so annoyed by comments that I take the time to login so I can downvote someone. Today is such a day. What a pointless comment…
March 31st, 2025 – KOJIMA PRODUCTIONS is proud to announce that DEATH STRANDING has connected over 20 million porters across PlayStation®4, PlayStation®5, PC, XBox, iOS platforms, and Amazon Luna.
I have been slowly working my way though this game for months. I keep playing other games in between but I want to finish it before DS2.
I ended up with over 140 hours on it, but I wasn't exactly rushing. Ended up seeing to it that all roads were rebuilt too.
There are still a few Half Life missions left that I think I'll do.
Man I love this game. Platinumed it and played through it a 2nd time just for fun. I'm day 1 with bells on for the sequel
In still drop in this world from time to time. I just played it yesterday.
Plenty of games have made a name for themselves as being proud of the fact they’re not to everyone’s taste over the years.
I mean I can do without nintendo games if given the choice. They are not nearly as mature rated as the average.
Yeah but I use my Switch OLED primarily for anime booba style games (visual novels and JRPG's) and ultra violent FPS's. Far from kid friendly, lol
The problem with that line of though is that games have never been as much "for everyone" as in 2025.
The only thing that's not for everyone in gaming lately is the gatekeeping. Devs will try to appeal to as many people as they can, but if you dare have your own tastes and prefer something a bit more obscure, then you have "L takes" because at the moment, popular opinion equals right opinion.
So devs should simply own the fact they water down their games and go Hollywood to please everybody. Then indies will go back to being trendsetters that are different from AAAs, instead of being roguelike and gacha copycats.
Okay, but "games I'm not meant to love" means I won't play them.
Games are for fun. They're their own art, it's a disservice to reduce them to interactive stories. You can focus on making your audience entertained on a positive way and still stand out.
No game is for everyone. Some games are more mainstream or casual friendly but there is always someone who won’t like it. Same with anything else
Not much better
It's only disappointing because there's fan posters online which look amazing
