A life changer, never felt anything like this ever in my life. It was like an lucid dream.

In ps5 this game is an absolute masterpiece. Honestly I saw so many crítics review, users review, saying that this game wasnt worth it, but I finallu decided to give it a try and its an stunning game. The gameplay is something that will keep your mind engaged, you have to be constantly thinking on the best aprroach to deliver the packages, the history is very good and the graphics are gorgeus

A game like no other.
A unique experience that I'll never forget.
This game is one of the most memorable experiences of my life.
The gameplay is just too addictive, can't get enough of it.
I played the standard version back in 2019 and got the platinum trophy for it; although, it was kinda my second run but I've played DC version even more than the standard version and got the platinum for it too.
Love Koiima-San, hope he creates game forever (even after he's gone like he mentioned before:) ).
Can't wait for On The Beach, hope it gets the goty:).

Played on: Playstation 5
Version: Playstation 5 (Director's Cut)
Edition: Digital

I have played this game off & on for years & the first two times or so, it just didn't grab me. It felt like a chore to do & the narrative was wildly complicated often times making little to no sense at all. Well, time has passed.

I picked up the game on a sale & decided to commit & for the most part, I'm glad I did. This was a unique experience that once I let the game tell me what it was trying to be instead of me trying to make it what I WANT it to be, I enjoyed it. A lot.

The world is bare bones yet still feels alive? I'm not quite sure how to explain it. I think the unity of players making short cuts & helping each other is beautiful & really adds to the games theme in general, connection.

The combat leaves a lot to be desired but the game isn't necessarily shaped to be such a thing. Walking across these beautiful landscapes is oddly peaceful & relaxing & while sometimes feels like a hassle (depending on the distance) it somehow still manages to remain charming while doing so.

Performances are outstanding & Mads Mikkelsen steals the show (duh). I began to understand the majority of the narrative as the game progressed while it peeled back its layers & spilled its concepts & creations across the digital canvas.

This is an unforgettable experience & I think that sums it up in itself. This isn't a game, it's an experience. While at times it runs a little too long & even at times can wear out its welcome (third act cutscenes) it still makes for a breathtaking piece of art. I am very excited to see what's in store for us in Death Stranding 2: On The Beach

P.S. I was gonna try for the platinum but I feel that it would drive me into insanity & this is a game where I want to end on a high note.

Final verdict: Buy it
