Is it just me or did the visuals (fluid simulation, lighting, particle effects, animation) look a step above pretty much anything released current gen? I have no idea how a base ps4 is rendering this.

all other character is cooler than Sam. other character got this ability like control undead soldier or summon this big monster even that umbrella lady seems like she had more special ability than Sam. we're like the lowest of the totem pole. can't even see ghost and only sense them.

same with lea's character's jacket. i wonder if he works for a company like her and sam or if he just has his own tech.

Remember when games were about gameplay and not acting with your Hollywood friends?

Yeah cos the Metal Gear games certainly show a lack of respect for gameplay, especially Kojima's most recent work on MGSV right?

I feel like his trailers have always focused on the world and characters as the primary attraction, and the gameplay has always followed.

I personally still think Horizon is the most overall graphically accomplished current gen game, so I'm not surprised to see Death Stranding looking so good given it is using the same engine. I'm sure it'll blow people away visually when it releases.

Remember many here and in the old forums suspecetd since the first trailers that we won't have such fluid simulation in the game and no way to happen. You also forgot that some of the character models in this games especially (Lindsay Wagner, Léa Seydoux and Mads Miikkelsen look beyond any character this gen in terms of realism, something that even some games will fail to achieve next-gen). Also all footages since the first reveal were PS4 Pro footage (just like TLOU2). We have to see the PS4 version running to see how it behaves.

I'm convinced this is Stefanie Joosten. The lips/mouth look very similar to hers, and the Netherlands flag would make sense since that's where she's from.

This is also running on a modified version of the Decima Engine (which is constantly changing in terms of modifications between both Kojima Productions and guerrilla games ), which is pretty much why it looks pretty and amazing.

As long as it plays better than the bloody skulls encounters in MGS5 I'm happy. They get so out of place.

Looks very cool though - do kinda want to find out what the hell its all about / what it's gling to play like now!

I can't wait for the "What I played | What I expected | What I got" posts for this game... Like, an Egyptian redneck summons a Bloodborne boss out of the living dead oil bodies in front of Merle's baby brother.

There were a lot of complaints about her character being virtually naked in MGS5, so what does Kojima do? He wraps her up in a body bag this time.

Id' love to see Pythonselkan 2 hour long analysis about this enw short trailer. mentioning again how hico left the world of MGS5 to MGS Survive dimension then to Silent Hills (he his holding his won head there in the trailer), then to Death Stranding dimension. Same now for Revolver Ocelot (Troy Baker) and Quiet (she has the same goo like eyes from mads Mikkelson, maybe same power). XD.

I just miss PS2 era Kojima who would have these absurdly long reveal trailers that were bookended with story, but the middle would be a Sakurai-esque deep dive into gameplay that blew your fucking mind with how much needless attention to detail it had.
I hear ya. That was definitely Kojima at his best. What he prioritized in his reveals was a lot more substantial and compelling to me during that era.

This new trailer was somewhat interesting though.

Okay, cool fx aside I'm bothered by how static Reedus' face looks in that cutscene.

This is the Decima engine power in display. We need a better quality video before we judge anything. This is taken directly from the stream. When the official clip is released from Sony, that'll show it.

Batshit crazy. I live what I'm seeing in a lot of ways (what ever that is) but I just need to be convinced on the gameplay. I'm very sure this will be cross gen however, and that I won't be preordering it anytime soon.

I wouldn't at all be surprised if gameplay-wise all they have is what they've shown at E3: Characters walking across some terrain. I bet they spent a ton of time just learning the engine, creating those assets and making everything look swanky with IK, etc. My guess is that Kojima enjoys putting these cutscenes together way more than working on the actual gameplay.

We already know this isn't true, since he's already stated there's far more to the gameplay than they've shown. There's supposedly some very unique puzzle and stealth/survival based gameplay, as well as gunplay/combat too.
