Also, i 100% believe Kojima is pulling a MGS2 with this. Bookmark this, Sam wont be the main playable character the whole game

Why you say that?

Why you say that?

It doesn’t feel like to me Normal Reedus spent that long doing mocap and voice work and i can almost link everything chronologically that they’ve shown so far. It feels like the first 5 hours.

Kojima’s is also insisting he’s really changing shyt up

Yea I feel like it could easily be Lea Seydoux's character judging from that Game Awards trailer

I also think theres a reason sam wasn’t featured in the photomode video, beyond Kojima’s gooner intentions

They makes it seem Sam is still the face of face of Death Stranding 2 especially the delivery the job he has. If not Sam then who?

The baby grow up as an teenager or adult. Played by Ellie Fanning. Ummmm....that's interesting. But Sam got a lot of more scenes than Tomorrow in DR2 in trailer. I forgot how MS2 trailer looks like....did they show Solid Snake scenes more than Raiden in trailer?

MGS2 had an entire demo in Zone of Enders where you’re just playing as snake the entire time lol

None of the commercials or ads had much Raiden in it at all even after release





The official box art is an amalgamation of Raiden and Snake

If they pulled this so do you think the gamers would be upset like they did with MSG2? Especially Woke era now. There are already many gamers upset Ghost of Yotei with a female is the protagonist

Maybe, they take a page from TLOU2 book

Naw DS2 is far more esoteric than MGS, people expect it to be subversive
