Multiplat Death Stranding

[Summer Nights]

Looks ridiculous.

 

[Dannnnnnnnnn]

 

[Dannnnnnnnnn]

Huh. Okay then.

I don’t have a dark mindset in particular. Death Stranding is not a horror game. I just wanted to make something that looks very unique, something you haven’t seen before, something with a more artistic slant to it. I’m not pursuing a dark aspect to the game.

Humor is a very important aspect for games. You play a game for a very long time – Death Stranding is a big game, too – and you put stress on the player and you lead them through peaks and valleys. Humor is an important aspect to make sure the player can enjoy playing across these peaks and valleys.

So we’ll have humor in this game too, but to a degree that it doesn't ruin the world setting. It will be at an appropriate level.

We ended up choosing the game that – first of all – would be best for the market, and the one we were most enthusiastic about making. That was Death Stranding. It wasn’t an idea that we'd had for a long time, it was really a new idea.

"Death Stranding is not a horror game."

Woo!

 

[Dannnnnnnnnn]

"Death Stranding is not a horror game."

Woo!

The quote continued, "... but it's probably still too scary for people like Quivorir."

I imagine it'll have slightly more horror elements than Metal Gear.

Oh I can't wait for that Kojima 'humour'. I wonder which character will shit himself?

Short odds on the baby in the lava lamp

Confirmed: Quivorir is Kojima.

While in that process, we're constantly imagining, like, terrifying situations so it ends up giving me bad dreams. That's the reason why I don't want to make a horror game.

[Quivorir]

I like this Kojima guy.

 

[The Big Sauce]

I like this Kojima guy.

You should play PT then

 

[Quivorir]

You should play PT then

I think its still on my original PS4, but nope.

 

[Dannnnnnnnnn]

Won't be at E3, per Kojima.

 

[The Big Sauce]

That's a good thing, I hope it isn't at PSX either.

Let them work on the game for a few years then show it at E3 next year or 2019.

 

[dwwaino]

More like 2029.

 

[The Big Sauce]

More like 2029.

I was saying show it, not release it.

This will be a long ride

 

[aussiedude]

The game wont be shown, but Kojima will be at E3. he is on Keighley's E3 thing on Youtube nextweek.

So he could talk about it a bit more, just doesnt have much to show or Sony doesnt have the time to spend on it with all the 3rd party marketing deals they have taking up time.

 

[dwwaino]

Thanks for the update.

Initially I was sad when Kojima moved on from the Metal Gear genre......it was a series I loved watching & playing. Kojima was a pioneer for this way of presenting a video game for the consumer.

But the timing was over due for him to move on and we now get a different game, story and characters to enjoy. If Kojima approaches Death Stranding with same diligence he had with MGS and if Sony allow him to do what he wants.......then this game will be worth the wait.

 

[Quivorir]

Alright Dan, calm down.

[Dez!]

I wonder if Kojima does actually know what he's making?

 

[BallaratBulldog]

I wonder if the game will be a completely finished unlike MGSV

 

[Dez!]

I wonder if the game will be a completely finished unlike MGSV

Well given that Konami has nothing to do with it, we can safely assume yes.

looks bonkers but in the best kind of way
