Based on the comments so far, there are a few things I’d like to clarify: Throughout the game, it’s believed Cliff is after BB-28 (Lou). It is later revealed that he’s actually after Sam, who is his son. Sam was originally intended to be a BB (he was born from a still mother), but after his death, he couldn’t be a BB anymore. Amalie severed his umbilical cord, which can be seen as a large cross scar on Sam’s stomach as an adult. The reason why BB’s existed before BTs was because BB’s were originally meant to help create the Chiral Network - their ability to sense BTs was discovered later and was used as a cover story. Lou is not Sam’s daughter. Lou is not Sam. Lou is a random BB. She is named Louise after Sam’s wife and unborn child, who were both killed in a voidout and appear in the picture he carries around. Also at the very end of the game, Sam and Lou are seen walking outside in the rain unaffected, which alludes to the fact that timefall and BTs may no longer be a thing. I hope that clears up any confusion! I’m now going to shamelessly plug myself :) them tweets: twitter.com/timlash10 them shirts: teespring.com/stores/timbos-store-2 them support: bit.ly/2IoKFnG

Yo, sorry I got caught up getting touched by dead people and warping through time. Had to calm my BB. Also ran into some cargo addicted idiots and terrorists. Had to calm my BB again... ... And my truck broke... ... Then I had to soothe my BB... ...Then my boots wore through... ...and I had to peel off my toenails... Anyway here's that cool pair of shoes you ordered.

The whole time I was taking BB to the incinerator I was just going "no, no, they arent going to make me do this. They cant" I thought there would be a cutscene where Sam stops and doesn't put Lou in the incinerator. I ran around for probably 10 minutes trying to find a way out. Finally sunk in that I had to go to the terminal to activate the incinerator. I was devastated. Figured it was Kojima forcing me to feel sad. I was super happy when Sam takes Lou off the incinerator last minute and just lets the cufflinks burn. What a crazy experience over what was a 15 minute ordeal. Truly moving and worth the 50 hours it took me to beat the game.

I actually watched an interview where he explained that he got the idea from going to a museum with an exhibition showing stranded whales on a beach. It made him think about life and death. That's how it started. The man is a true visionary. No doubt about it.

you forgot a VERY important detail in the very last cutscene: Louise actually did die in Sam's arms. It was Amelie who brought Lou back to life tho, as Lou is suddenly holding Amelie's necklace after being revived, meaning she is now a repatriate too and can roam the world (just like Sam). Amelie did that as a way of apologizing to Sam for everything she has put him through, I guess. This is important since a) it confirms that Amelie is still watching over Sam (and now Louise), and b) we could actually get a SEQUEL OF DEATH STRANDING playing as Grown-Up Louise!

So many videogames don't care about resolving plot points, it's just "well I guess this character is fine", "I guess this weird sci fi stuff is normal", when in DS every single concept has an answer.

Very rarely it felt annoying or boring. Combine that with the truly genius thing that you can build the connections in the world together with other players meaning once you hook up a knot to the chiral network you can see other players constructions and they can see yours and you can improve, upgrade or build things together with these players without ever seeing them. It makes you feel one with all the other players working together to re-unite the UCA and live the story. and last but not least indeed the characters in the game that really grow on you and the truly awesome story telling. If you watched this KZread video you can not have the same experience as me and other players that went through the game not knowing and being surprised every time a bit of info was leaked only to get the biggest reveal in a 1 hour cutscene after wre thought we knew it all.

Unlike the mediocre bad tasting cookies the Tripple A publishers are squeezing out in a yearly cylce now a days. Playing it all safe and just copying the latest hype or last year' s game.

The thing is... you either get into it or you don't. If you do you'll understand every single plot point in every game Kojima made, but if you don't (like you said you didn't) then don't complain about not understanding it. It's like watching a bad summary of a movie like Memento or Predestination without actually watching the movie and judging it by it.

you're right

bruh the final scene where sam is begging for lou to come back stikk gets me emotional

Higgs was never confirmed dead, actually he sends an email from the beach after he “dies” and opens up his shelter after you deliver the last pizza (Spoiler alert… Peter Englert is Higgs). The memory chip found there gives his character the background - and also the schematics to his custom weapons 😉

The 3 last scenes really hit me hard. The way Sam was pleading and desperate for Lou to live while a BT cord was near her, the souls of the other BB's that must of been "decommissioned" watching over them and Lou's little hand in Sam's at the very end honestly had me blubbering like a baby. I think what must of struck me most about it was Sam left Fragile saying there was nothing left tethering him to the world but no, his bond with Lou gave him a reason to stay connected to the world

To me, it seemed like those were some of the BBs who were decomissioned, saying goodbye to their fellow BB (Lou/Louise) for the final time, before the connection between the afterlife, the beach, and the real world was cut, allowing the world to somewhat return to normal, hence the normal rain and normal rainbow.

Amazing review!

an explanation for the cross on Cliff and Sam's stomach: In the hospital scene where cliff/bb sam is killed, Cliff is cradling bb sam in his arms and the bullet fired by John (Bridget really) went through bb sam's stomach as well as cliff's stomach. In the cutscene where Amelie finds the dead bb sam on his beach, she closes the gunshot wound in his stomach with a cross, which ends up being a scar. It is also revealed that Amelie brought Cliff back as her angel of death kind of thing, presumably by doing the cross motion to close the gunshot wound in his stomach. So the father and son died the same way and were brought back in the same way.

And yes, even though this one seems like a *failed* idea, it's still a new, original idea. It's not about games with "more fetch quests", it's about daring to try to create new genres. If Kojima fails too hard, it will be a while until we see a truly original new AAA game, and not a rehash. There's no risk he'll succeed massively and we see a surge of walking simulators with wonky backpack mechanics. But I wish him a moderate success, so that devs aren't scared to try new things.
