Here's why Death Stranding is not a walking simulator

Critics call Death Stranding a walking simulator. But we know what the game Death Stranding really is...!

The more you play, the more you learn that walking is just the surface.

Before lake knot: walking simulator
Lake knot onward: hyper UPS simulator

It's only a walking simulator for the first quarter of the game. Once you get access to roads it becomes a truck driving simulator.

It's not a walking simulator, it's actually a _hiking_ simulator.

Driving a motorcycle through the rain barely making it through, then finding a shelter with pop virus playing just hits so different. The game is more than a walking simulator and it’s lowkey one of my favorite games oat.

Jokes aside, why do people call it a walking simulator, as if that's somehow a bad thing.

Love this game. It is a walking sim, it is a delivery sim, it is a truck driving sim… it’s also an incredibly strange, evocative story with tons of ambiguity and intrigue, has incredible atmosphere, is one of the best looking games on any console generation, packs several emotional punches and is just so unique that there’s nothing else like it.

I turn it into a ziplining stimulator after getting all achievements in the game which is super fun with a mild calculation process. Now my goal is to finish all the deliveries available. Awesome game.

Anybody that calls death stranding a walking sim didn’t play it long enough. I spent a lot of time fighting BTs with grenade launchers and assault rifles later on in the game. Also sneaking around mule sights collecting resources and knocking them out. Love this game, definitely one of my all time favorites.

"This game is just a walking simulator, why would anyone find this fun"

The incredible characters, environments, graphics, mechanics, worldbuilding, and storytelling:

Truly the first ever santa type of game

I genuinely want to know why some people hate this game so much, it's literally a masterpiece, proof that video games can be art. Why would anyone let themselves be so negative towards perfection?

[anasshahid]

Great video man! Never thought of Death Stranding this way 😊

[amnesiaclapp]

Santa is also known for throwing hands so yeah, go beat some ass while delivering the packages of "joy" (drugs, most of the packages are drugs)

[ElusiveFrame]

😂 also spreading the message for all the chiral network believers.

Love the game! 🤩

[XxTheGoOfYxX]

The need to want to complete this game is what drove me to wanna learn its curves and beat it! Such a great game!

[KyranSparda]

In the late stage of the game when I got tired of doing premium deliveries, I just unload everything into the nearby distribution center, put on full Lv. 3 armor, carry rifles and grenades only and move to the nearby terrorist camp/BT spot to fuck some shit up.

Got back into DS 3 weeks ago, sall the trailer for DS2 last night

Once you reach chapter 5 it picks up the pace tenfold

Wish we could change the color of thr suit before the ending of the game
