    Death Stranding. Completely forgot about the game until I got it in humble monthly, and… Damn it was worth playing. In retrospective, I’d have been happy dropping 60 on it. I thought going in it’d be boring gameplay for a weird story, but the gameplay was actually REALLY FUN and the story was weord.

      +1. It’s one of those games that got better overtime. When it came out in 2019 there were people like, “Really? A hiking / Amazon Prime simulator?”

      But after the Pandemic, the isolation and theme of yearning connections really hit home, and the entire design and philosophy just clicked and worked for me. I started appreciate everything about the game. I think Hideo Kojima even said he’s going to try and not predict the future in Death Stranding 2 😄
