This Game Definitely Isn’t for Everyone

User Rating: 8 | Death Stranding: Director's Cut PS5

This game transformed my perspective {which is what all great ART is supposed to do} on a profession as old as trade itself, the occupation of creating/managing systems to deliver much needed supplies/equipment/goods from point A to point B… this is…logistics. While this game definitely isn’t for everyone, and me being a long time metal gear solid fan-having no expectations going into this game… I was pleasantly surprised at how engaging the experience was for me. The game mechanics along with narrative urged me to contemplate just how important logistics are; I had to think about how important the people are that we count on to bring us the things we need, so we can pick them up at hubs/stores or our homes.Sure someone can verbalize the importance of these people to you [especially if society were to experience a major collapse] but going through this experience within the context of the engaging narrative, can transform your perspective about delivery, that no speech or history lesson could ever do. I must admit, the story was pretty good-to me, even almost shed a tear ,... I heard that Kojima wanted to be a film director, and it shows. I would definitely go see the death stranding movie. 8 out of 10.
