I hope there’s no more lame shooter parts to disrupt my successful career as a porter!

The other characters are not much better- wooden, cardboard, stereotypical, with occasional aspects of weirdness that's kinda cool but doesn't really cohere. It would have really benefited from better dialogue writing. Just laughable. Sometimes terrible in a fun way, but still.

The one exception was Deadman, who I kinda liked. That's the character modeled on Guilermo del Tormo, voiced by Jesse Corti. Deadman has some very funny scenes, and is a lot more lively and fun to interact with than the rest.

Everyone's name is a word that's telling you how to feel about them, in a very cringey way. There are plot twists, but they're extremely easy to guess by paying attention to the names. The politics- even ignoring the pro-life stuff- are similarly heavy handed and crude.

All that said, I found I really came to like and even sort of care about the world as a whole.

After the apocalypse, humanity's few survivors are left in a world of death magic which is both their best means of survival and their greatest threat. Sounds like it'd be as corny as the rest, but I came to really feel I was there through the settings and game play.

So that's Death Stranding: A terrible story with bad, cardboard characters you won't care about at all, heavy-handed pro-life politics, and way too many cutscenes (do yourself a favor, just skip them!), but still a really excellent game I'd recommend to anyone interested.
