To be fair, you have to have a very high IQ to understand Death Stranding. The gameplay is extremely subtle, and without a solid grasp of the trigger buttons most of the traversal will go over a typical gamer's head. There's also Kojima's nihilistic outlook, which is deftly woven into his writing - his personal philosophy draws heavily from Hollywood movies, for instance. The fans understand this stuff; they have the intellectual capacity to truly appreciate the depths of these references, to realize that they're not just films - they say something deep about LIFE. As a consequence people who dislike Death Stranding truly ARE idiots- of course they wouldn't appreciate, for instance, the meaning behind Amelie's existential catchphrase "Like Mario and Princess 'Beach'" which itself is a cryptic reference to videogame classic, Super Mario Bros. 2. I'm smirking right now just imagining one of those addlepated simpletons scratching their heads in confusion as Kojima's genius unfolds itself on their television screens. What fools... how I pity them. And yes by the way, I DO have a Norman Reedus tattoo. And no, you cannot see it. It's for the ladies' eyes only- And even they have to demonstrate that they're within 5 IQ points of my own (preferably lower) beforehand.

I built so many of those skylines in the first game after I reached the mountains. Made it a breeze to go up mountains. Ran out of bandwidth to built them.

For everywhere without roads, those skylines are amazing.

I still have yet to see a decent argument as to why Death Stranding 1 and 2 aren't pretentious and nonsensical crap that was shat out by a commie high on his own farts.

Literally the only fans of these 'games' are fatties, fags, browns, blacks, and jews, non-human demographics.

Neil already proved to be a noble person when he decided to go ahead with smuggling Lucy, and the flowers could've been presented as them posing as a couple to escape safely or something similar, making it obvious Neil still has some feelings but understands the truth. For him to cling on to her and trying to be "romantic" to the bitter end doesn't make it charming, it makes it pitiful.
