Hideo Kojima, the creator of the upcoming title Death Stranding, has revealed a lot of about the game and how it will work. Kojima was present at the Garage Museum of Art in Moscow where he talked to the public and revealed that the fate of the NPCs in Death Stranding will depend on the player’s action and choices.
Kojima goes on to explain that the story of the game will largely depend on what kind of connections the user will build. He also added that there is an NPC in the game whose fate totally depends on the actions of the player.
We have a character who lives deep underground. He is sick and needs medicine, and Sam can deliver it. Since this happens at the beginning of the story, this is a must. After completing this quest, the player himself chooses the following actions: you can constantly go to the old man and carry medicine; can deliver other items; You can listen to his stories from the past.
But the player is constantly moving forward and moving away from the character. And I’m sure that there are gamers who forget about this old man. And then they will remember and return to it. Since they have not carried medicine to him all this time, he will die by this moment. Through such actions, a connection arises with the character.
We really hope that the significance of the connection between people – how it is formed, how it develops – will be revealed, and it will be interesting for you to play it.
The creator adds that Death Stranding is a game about the disunity of people, which is a sort of interpretation of the modern world we live in and shows what level our societies can reach.
There has been nothing but a stick in the gaming industry for the past 30 years. Of course, I love stick games, but it’s time for the rope to appear. If you continue this thought, then you can connect the whole world with a rope. It is like building bridges. And in our game, this is how it happens – you can connect locations. Since this is an open world game, you can choose the order of your actions.
Death Stranding will launch exclusively for the PlayStation 4, next month on November 8. Are you looking forward to the next title by Hideo Kojima? Post your comments below.
