>final boss is 2 hours of cutscenes back to back
Bravo, Kojimbo. Absolute cinema

Truth nuke.

I can cope with long ending cutscenes, but don't ask me to dick around for ten minutes while the credits roll.

The final boss is Moby Dick you fight at the end of a super cool final version of the first stage where all your installations are destroyed and have to rely on what other players have built instead.

What you're describing is just an interactive ending cinematic.

I like Kojima, but that was way too fucking much. Given the recent allegations that he made tweaks to the game based on early reviews, I hope he didn't add more cutscnes in any way because holy fuck that can't possibly be good

I knew about the lengthy ending so tried to rush the last few chapters. Ended up barely making it before having to leave. In hindsight I could have stopped after Cliff and done the rest later. It hurt my enjoyment because I kept looking at the clock and there is no saving.

i watched most cutscenes but I starter skipping them towards the end. I have yet to care enough to go to youtube and watch them. It's an ok game but goddamn let me play already I don't want to watch a movie...

Yeah god forbid you show the tiniest bit of appreciation for everyone that worked their asses off to give you 100+ hours of entertainment.

You didn't lose much. I barely understood anything at the time, all I got was that Amelie was magically selected as an entity who should facilitate the apocalypse, but got convinced otherwise except it will happen anyway, something like that.

That is pretty much it. She put it off because she cared about Sam and others and the ending is her sealing herself away and letting humanity live on.

Death Stranding isn't a Walking Simulator. It's a sim game about walking.
