Death Stranding 1 has you as Sam rediscover how to reconnect with others, slowly becoming more emotional as time goes on and creates a a deep bond with Lou that shows how connections is an extremely powerful thing that allow people to heal and how we need them.

Then it turned out Lou was his actual tranny daughter but Kojima had to throw Neil NTR'ing his wife and all this retardation with how she came to be his daughter, undermining the message of the first game in more ways than one. Kojima is such a fucking hack, I fucking hate him. "SHOULD WE HAVE RECONNECT?!" and it's just the Patriots system AGAIN doing dumbass shit, fuck everyone that praises this garbage
