Somehow this seems even more deranged than the first and I'm so excited for it

Looks we are getting that Kojima weirdness in this one.

[–] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 16 points 9 months ago (1 children)

A Kojima game without Kojima weirdness would be weirder than the Kojima weirdness itself.

[–] hal_5700X@lemmy.world 6 points 9 months ago

True.

Say what you want about Kojima produced games but no one makes games this big and this weird.

A Cyborg Ninja?!

[–] BaronVonBort@lemmy.world 8 points 9 months ago

Kojima and cyborg ninjas - name a more iconic combo

[–] clay_pidgin@sh.itjust.works 6 points 9 months ago

That is extremely Kojima. The surgical mask hands are creepy as shit.

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.

[–] SatansMaggotyCumFart@lemmy.world 2 points 9 months ago

Yeah, I play Kojima games for the coherence and realism so this surrealism is off putting.

[–] SpookyLegs@lemmy.world 0 points 9 months ago

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

"Looook at my metaphors!!!1!!"

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 🤷
