Death Stranding Discussion (12/2016 trailer)

So this has to have something to do with time travel right? I mean everything here from the planes, to the soldiers, to the guns are all World War looking era. Mads character looks modern, and Del Torro looks possibly future considering the weird baby in the glowing tank.

maybe dead WW2 soldiers are being brought back to life

lots of skellys in this trailer
 
Still can't get over how good this looks.

Just hopping into this now, did anyone notice the pin/badge the Del Toro character was wearing in the beginning?

There's a logo of the United States but it looks like there's a crater around where Washington D.C. would roughly be

The whole trailer was in-engine running on Pro. It's all real. All of it.

I don't care about cutscenes, like, at all... And I think Kojima's stuff is kind of dumb nonsense so I'm especially disinterested in the cutscenes

Some Kojima games (namely MGS5) have good and interesting gameplay, so that's all I really care about here

The thing is though that the planes that are flying are form that era, and the destroyed city seems to be as well.

Can anyone translate the I believe its German being spoken in the trailer when the soldiers are marching?

Wait, this is getting a PC port?

The "leak" said it wasn't lmao.

I mean didn't the recent new "leak" by the same guy said it was?

There was as an interview that said there was going to be a PC port that would come after the PS4 release of the game. The interview was deleted however.

This is a day 1. Heck, this one game is enough for me to go out and get a PS4 Pro and 4K tv for once we get a release date (2018-2019?)

German which is being spoken by Mads if my ears aren't deceiving me.
 
Thanks for the heads-up about the 4-chan rumors. Fuck, it's going to be hard to avoid those on here, especially when so many posters don't know how spoiler tags are supposed to work.

Don't forget about those black holes ecuations on Norman Reedus's flash drives. If black holes are involved, then everything is possible. From time travel to other dimensions. This could be something really, really amazing.
 
This has potential to be the greatest game ever made. Yes, I'm being serious.

As you have every right to be so serious about. A clean slate for a seasoned Kojima. No 30-year history to weigh down expectations. I think there's a good chance that Death Stranding is a one-off game (at least with Kojima at the helm), however I also believe that it will become a franchise in other forms of media such as anime and manga, which Kojima has discussed in the past.
 
Who would have thought that the MGS franchise was actually holding Kojima from going full bonkers

I love it, and this may sound like blasphemy but this game looks a hell of a lot more interesting to me than MGS. He's playing with some really creepy / bizarre themes and imagery here

I only skimmed the trailer but Kojima is showing some restraint by not having any giant boobs anywhere

#genius #art
 
He also worked on that Uncharted 4 teaser too lol. Anyways i hope these visuals don't get downgraded but that looks like legit 4k and not checkerboard. It looks incredibly clean.

I have never seen any Kojima game using CGI or non ingame cutscenes before, let alone being downgraded after.

I admit that although I have been firmly against the idea of the Pro, this might be the game to sell my soul on.

Though I bet by the time it comes out it'll be a launch title for the PS5.
 
I'm not sure it is anymore. Even that trailer at the end it only lists PS4.

I'm wondering if Sony gave Kojima more money to make this a full on 100% exclusive.

MGS4 was still a Konami IP and yet it is still exclusive to PS3, let alone this game where Sony is heavily involved in including the tech and the engine.

If those leaks are true... and really wonder what could have inspired Sony to throw so much money at this thing?

Not them I'm complaining, unshackled Kojima with a seemingly limitless mount of funds will lead to one of the greatest things ever.

You realize that this trailer was most likely prerendered using PS4 dev h/w and real game engine / assets so there was no need for it to be real time and it could've ran at 1 fps for all we know? The game will most certainly run with either checkerboarding (likely option) or in some 1800p resolution with upscaling on PS4Pro, it won't be able to pull such graphics in 4K native.

Man if that 4chan leak is real this is going to be one crazy game. I kinda wish I didn't read it now

Was Mads Mikkelsen known before tonight because that guy called it. I avoided reading anything beyond the 1st post because I guess it reveals major plot spoilers.
