At the end of this month, lucky PS5 owners will get their hands on DEATH STRANDING: THE DIRECTOR's CUT. In this brief electronic virtual essay, join Jorin Lee of Futurasound Productions as he walks us through each Hideo Kojima Production, to explain why the subject of 'Directors Cuts' and, in general, being 'unfinished' is, ironically, the secret to Kojima's considerable authorial success.
***************
Death Stranding is a sci-fi third-person open-world action-adventure game developed by Kojima Productions and released by Sony for the PlayStation 4 on November 8, 2019.
The first game by the reformed Kojima Productions (now an independent studio unaffiliated with Konami), Death Stranding takes place in the near-future as the world is ravaged by a cataclysmic supernatural phenomenon known as "death stranding", leaving cities isolated and the landscape both barren and plagued with spectral creatures. The game's main plot revolves around creating connections, or "strands," linking isolated survivors and cities to each other in an effort to rebuild society.
The game features the performances (including voice acting, likenesses, and dialogue motion capture) of numerous veteran actors for its central characters, most notably Norman Reedus as the playable protagonist and Mads Mikkelsen as the central antagonist. Other notable actors include Léa Seydoux, Lindsay Wagner, Margaret Qualley, Tommie Earl Jenkins, and Troy Baker. Film directors Guillermo del Toro and Nicolas Winding Refn are also featured, though in likeness only.
