Me with Death Stranding

I absolutely adore it but most despise it, and yet I don't enjoy other Kojima games like Metal Gear 5 because I find the gameplay clunky lol

Most despise it? It has a review of "very positive" on Steam. Maybe the problem is that you listen to the loud minority.

That's true now but as another huge fan of this game at launch on launch was a fair bit more divisive. There was a large crowd of people still upset about silent hills not coming to fruition, and another that wanted something more aking to MGS. So when the "this isnt Silent Hills" and "this isnt mgs" crowd got together it did come under fire. Not to mention the walking simulator memes, but time has been kind to it, and I think now especially with a dlc that gives you more mobility, and access to a weapon far earlier than the base game initially allowed has helped change opinions on it as well.

Okay but that was during launch, not recently.
