Slit Neck

While graphically it is amazing I got 80% through the game and finally linked up with my best friend from my friend list. After we linked up we started to notice some game breaking things. None of our structures or signs we could find of each others. Then I started to think what about the 30 established links I've made and couldn't find any of their structures.I started to backtrack and noticed a lot of the signs and structures I came across appeared to be bots not real players it's too coincidental the user names similarities between the two. So that was alarming to me. Another major blow was I am 80% thru the game and I've only built 3 bridges one safe house and a couple time shelters. I literally didn't have to build anything at all there was so much shit everywhere already and I was on normal mode. I changed it to brutal expecting the massive amount of structures around me would disappear but no that didn't work 😭 So after testing all this out and considering how extremely easy it was to blast through the game I decided to stop at 80% completion and start a new game offline on brutal mode. Hopefully this playthrough will give me some sense of accomplishment but right now I am massively disappointed and this experience ruined the game for me. The two stars is for the most remarkable graphics I have ever seen in a video game, along with what seemed like a really great story this far. Too bad everything else ruined it for me dropping my rating to 2 stars. So word of advice if you want to play this game do so OFFLINE because the whole strand services online connections and liking stuff is fake and artificial those are not real players signs or structures you come across it is generated and given fake usernames to look like real players. I have literally had to delete a bike that keeps spawning in my way to the government house at the exact same spot by different supposed players every time I leave and come back. That is not real players leaving a bike behind at the exact same spot same position same way facing identical to all the other ones I removed. The whole concept of the game and social strands and liking is all a scam! My best friend's stuff should appear around me before any of my 30 strand contacts and even the 30 strand contacts stuff should be appearing but NO. I received likes and it showed me I liked my best friends shit and we never gave likes we never found each others shit to give likes!!!!! So all the sudden we are giving and receiving likes for nothing just standing in the same spot for 2 hours discussing this!!!? We tested everything it's a SCAM! The likes you all give are to bots the structures in the game already there is artificial it's not real players playing the game building stuff for themselves and others. Spamming likes on a sign is going to bots and then you receive likes from bots it's all an illusion it's not real it's not what Kojima's saying in his selling point. Add your friends and test it yourselves you will see! Play offline only if you want to feel like the first game felt with some struggles and trials and tribulation play on normal or brutal but NEVER go online it will destroy your experience!!
