Ryan WAS Loar Roar

[@MrKOLCOO]

People say that its just gloryfied walking simulator, people are saying that Kojima is just overhyped mad man, but yet again he and his team managed to create something that transcends just a game. He created an "experience" that forever will be stuck with me.

[@VagrantShadow]

I think the truth is somewhere between. I do think Kojima is overhyped though.

[@RoySvv]

That's right 👍

[@nickolaslannes1915]

Spent about 120h going through those landscapes, walking, driving, falling, getting up, building roads, using people's bridges... Such an amazing and poetic adventure.

[@LewisKlint]

My advice is to visit Iceland or Scotland during summer. Then you will get to do it in real life too! The nature looks exactly the same, minus the derelict American buildings (tho in Scotland you'll find derelict mansions and castles, and in Iceland there's derelict houses and farms)

[@jonahstein2139]

This game will always have a special place in my heart. Even though I still had to go to work everyday during the COVID quarantine in 2020 USA, I felt like I had a connection to that concept of isolation and despair when I played Death Stranding. But throughout the game I really appreciated how the themes of hope and renewal were slowly unveiled in the story, characters, and settings. So beautiful.

[@videogameworlds]

Well said 👏

Actually, for Death Stranding 2, Kojima is rewriting the entire story due to COVID...I can't wait the next chapter of Sam to begin !

[@ruizj2006]

I went through the same experience with this game and 2020. I had the fortune to get temporary laid off and the time to play it. Both the experience and the gaming went hand in hand that now when I hear the music, I keep getting taken back to that feeling of Despair and Hope of that time.

Kojima took the engine developed to make Horizon and somehow got more out of it. Death Stranding might be one of the most visually impressive games ever.

[@djc2526]

Forbidden West feels like a PS3 game compared to this. The floaty physics, unrealistic textures... RDR2 and DS have ruined all other open world experiences for me.

Kojima's team regularly develops register level tools to maximize efficiency of whatever engine they're using. Every console he's developed for has maximized the output for that console regardless of where his game dropped within the lifecycle.

[@preakereyes]

death stranding getting me through the day yet again. its such a personal work of kojima and i feel it wholeheartedly. PT demonstrated the workplace abuse he faced in konami, being stuck in that room monitered 24/7, and killing his passion works but death stranding is the healing and the return of his journey. the game is literally a therapy walk through nature and bonding with other lonely people to (as kojima calls it) "charge your soul with soul warriors". I remember working at this warehouse place at 17 moving boxes everyday and being completely alone and seeing the fragile sign on boxes. I would always whisper to myself "I'm fragile, but I'm not that fragile." and I would feel like somewhere distant there was someone who understood me. over those years I completely lost the immense amount of passion I had for art, but lately I started listening to low roar again and I feel like I want the world to understand me.

[@MorrixYoda]

Rest in all the peace the universe can give you. Your voice moved me in so many ways I could not have believed the music can. Thank you for all the love you have brought to us, we'll make it last forever.

I just cannot get this exceptional connexion between Death Stranding's landscapes and Low Roar's perfectly matching music. Games that have the power of making you stop thinking about the "grind" and just contemplate are so rare and automatically among the best out there in my eyes. Being able to still craft unique experiences like that with so many games already existing is a true achievement by Kojima and his team.

[@omarcaneomedia]

[@kysna777]

[@chatbury]

I'm late to this party - but I can say that this game opening is something you'll never experience twice. I would never have thought that a video game would have such a reach. Not since The Last of Us. Both games have this sense of connection but on such different levels. DS feels like a personal journey. Being in those landscapes alone against the elements, it just takes you to a place.

[@gdept88]

Death Stranding might have the best use of an OST in gaming. Low Roar was the perfect choice to represent the tone of it too.

[@Jedi_Luke]

I loved everything about this game from start to finish. It was one of the only games in the last 10 years that got me hyped with the trailer and actually delivered with the final result. I'm beyond excited for the sequel.

[@ReelRai]

Kojima is one of the only directors who is willing to make something outside of the box with AAA budget. Death Stranding is a wild game. Who'd have thought a game about just walking, making package deliveries across an empty wasteland would work? And what other studio would be willing to MAKE such a game? Only Kojima. And the walking simulator works so well. The atmosphere, the music... it all just fits so well, and has a special place in my heart. People like to say Kojima is a whack and overrated, but once again with Death Stranding, he made a story that was absolutely insane whack, feels like makes no sense half the time... and yet it is something so unmistakably human and beautiful. People can say he's overrated, but I'll keep saying he's a master of his craft, until he proves me wrong by making a game that doesn't blow me away. Can't wait to see what he cooked up with the sequel.

[@Gcoastone]

I still remember the day when I bought the game at day one. I never played it seriously, for how beautiful it was, I just couldn't keep it up. Since I found out this video, it's been couple of weeks, I want to get my hands on the game again, but unfortunately I sold my ps4. Will come at it in the future when I'll have little more of patience and actually enjoy the game. Visuals + songs and the game ambience is just a perfect combo. Thank you.

Thank you for sharing this incredible video. I'm not someone who typically indulges in music, as I find that most contemporary tunes don't resonate with me and seem like a drain on my auditory senses. However, Kojima has been instrumental in helping me uncover the genre of music that truly appeals to my taste. The music and songs are far more enchanting than I could have ever imagined. I've gone ahead and added the entire game's soundtrack to my library on both Apple Music and Spotify.

Seeing this vid and the music makes me want to go back again just like how dunkey did as well for a second vid and said he enjoyed it the second time around and I hope I get that feeling too.
