    Like many of us, I have been a fan of Kojima’s games over the years. With his own production company and few people to answer to, I feel his tendency to revel in surrealism and absurdity is pushing me away.

    I’m not looking forward to another dose of cryptic pretentiousness from him. I’ll leave this one alone.

      Yeah… Same here. I absolutely adore the MGS franchise but death stranding always came off as super pretentious.

    Gonna wait for performance info at launch, and grab if it runs well. There’s basically no point waiting for professional reviews, since it’s such a love-it-or-hate-it gameplay loop. I really liked the first one (doing a replay now), so unless it comes to light that it’s now a MG:Survive clone or something, I should be alright 🤷
