I really wanted to like this game, I really wanted to overlook the metal gear solid syndrome as I like to call it, This is typical with many Kojima games and some call it artistic but there is a line where the level of nonsensical and obscure distracts from being able to relate to a game and this point is reached pretty much within 20 seconds of the opening title. Everything in this game screams misappropriated budget, spending all the money on 2 main cast members in favor of polished mechanics, animations, or any real enjoyable game play. I tried to appreciate the art, I tried to suspend disbelief, which maybe I could have done had they given you enough meat on the bone to keep things interesting. The game becomes repetitive really quickly. The other really annoying thing is the over complication of menus, and text prompts and pertinent information being so small you need a microscope to read it all. It seems in order to succeed at Death Stranding you need a PHD in unexplained game mechanics. This may be to date the worst game I have ever played.
