DSOGaming writes: "Back in 2016, Kojima Productions officially announced Death Stranding for both PC and PS4. However, and after Sony provided the team with the Decima Engine, the game was advertised as a PS4-exclusive. Still, Kojima never really denied a PC release, and here we are today with Death Stranding officially coming out on the PC. Thus, we've decided to benchmark it and see how it performs on the PC platform."
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
Kojima should make at least one PC exclusive game. As you can see the PC is the platform than can show the games true potential even as a port. Imagine if this was built from the ground up for PC we would see many more in game options I'm sure. And even though it looks good it would look even better if it was not a port. Because locked at 30 or 60fps is still crap when you can play well over 100fps. 1080p/240hz over 4k or even 1440p, because more fps is much better to have, the game will always run so much more smoother. So until 4k reaches 240hz and the same fps we have now in 1080p there is no way I'm giving that up.
