Death Stranding really clicked for me when “Bones” by “Low Roar” in the first real delivery mission comes on. Takes slightly more than an hour to get there and even then, it definitely is not a game for everyone.

Very detailed and informative post as always! This is how video game journalism should be done.
You’ve convinced me to give Death Standing another go. I bounced off of it 30 minutes in after the 20th minute of cut scenes but there seems to be more juice to it further in so I’ll power through another hour or two and see if I can’t find the hooks!

Its a tough one! I tried twice before it made me head over heels. Just…take your time, the whole first gigantic area (to me) is like the tutorial area, just get through those cut scenes and then you’re really on your own.
Try soak in the atmosphere, but do remember it’s not for everyone!
I really, really love the game now. It actually takes my breath away. Heck it even inspired me to get Death Stranding items (I’m loathe to use the word ‘merch’) from Japan. And let me know what you think of it! I’m super interested how you find it :)
