      It is mental, but I also kind of wish he’d hire somebody else to write dialogue for him.

      And maybe somebody to check all the women characters, and make sure he’s not coming across as being a little bit odd.

        Yeah…

        And Death Stranding is better about its female characters than most of the MGS games…

          By the time you finish the game, whatever you’ve seen so far will seem like the most normal thing in the world.

          Definitely a lot of standard Kojima gameplay in there, among the apocalyptic Deliveroo simulator and bonkers 4th wall breaking.
