I hope #NormanReedus and #leaseydoux and everyone else involved in #DeathStranding are havin a great day. This is an amazing work of art and I'm finishing it on my birthday God damn it.
I'm 98 hours in, at least I hope the end is near. I'm a huge fuckin @Kojima_Hideo nerd, so part of me wants it to last forever, but at the same time, man; this game is bloated as fuck.
So... I shot amelie in the back of the head 6 times... But I wasn't close enough for it to register, so I got a different ending. Uh, fuck? Not sure how to feel about that.
I got to pull the trigger AND hug her. I'm flummoxed. Diametrically opposed, yet in harmony. True, true, chirality.
#DeathStranding unwillingly showed me its colors. Fucking Bravo. I get it now.
Even now as I write this I'm wading (literally) through confusing dialogs. At this point there could be 5 minutes or 5 hours left.
Still watching cut scenes. Not new for Kojima, but... As my mountain time followers know, it's late af rn.
I finished mgs2 when I was 11. I learned a lot about the world in the end of that game. But. This is basically the scene where Raiden runs around on arsenal gear for no fuckin reason while the AI explains that it's an AI for 3 days, without the joy of the weapons screen.
Ima just stand here and listen to @LOWROAR for as long as I can.
Special appearances :

Conan O'Brian.

We @HIDEO_KOJIMA_EN now
If you press back button (or whatever the Playstation equivalent is) Sam says "I ain't done yet!" "This has to be a bug right?" "God damn it Amalie!"

Exactly my feelings as the player.
There it is, the ludo narrative disnonance I crave.
OH FUCK SAM KILLS HIMSELF?
Lol psyche. "Connect with the living" button.
Yes, I intentionally wrote psyche instead of sike.
Yall ever swim around in The Seam for the ambiance? #DeathStranding @HIDEO_KOJIMA_EN
Mothafuckin God damn right I got an S for the last mission. Who else live tweeted the end of #DeathStranding? Seriously, we have a lot to discuss. Hit me up.
Also, how high does this rating system get?
Everything about this game is so pandemic timely, except for the removal of masks.
Heartman has his own couch to die on lmao.
Sam Porter Bridges. Say his name.
Sam is over his Aphenphosmphobia.
Fuck
Die Hardman is a force
I've stopped with the spoilers for now, (as I realized this might make it into circles of people who haven't finished the game) but holy hell. This voice acting.
And here we go, on our feet again. Without Lou.
If anyone read any of this at all, DM me about the ending. Jesus Chiral Christ.
For anyone reading this, still watching cut scenes
#NormanReedus is the greatest mocap actor ever. Who the fuck is the gollum guy? Serkis? Never heard of him.
OH MY GOD I'VE DONE IT
I'm aware that absolutely no one cares, but this was my experience during the last few hours of #DeathStranding. A stunning work of art, and undeniably one of a kind. The final credits now roll, and I'm completely satisfied.
@HIDEO_KOJIMA_EN, I have been a lifelong fan and will continue to be. I hope #DeathStranding made you enough money to continue being the only game developer that matters. Your work is timely and infinitely appreciated, at least by this fan.
This thread is the only evidence I have of turning 28, a meaningless milestone, but mine all the same. I may yet publish my first ever essay, all about @HIDEO_KOJIMA_EN and his influence in my life. But I'm drunk as hell, so who knows.
