First ever trailer, boys.
The real Phantom Pain. You knew it would be out eventually.

It really is, though. Everything from the Skull imagery (Ludens) to the dead wales (Moby Dick symbolism) to the lost child shtick screams "Fuck you Konami, this time I'm out for blood. I'll keep coming."

It's like MGSV had a wild night in the sack with PT and is fulfilling everything Kojima wanted to do with the first go.

Except this time, Kojima isn't limited by the contrived narrative he bound himself to with the MGS games.
I hadn't even thought about the dead fish on the shore. Damn man. It's gonna be a ride.

The Ludens do remind me a ton of The Skulls in MGS 5.
Just be good.

The angel agreed to trade a set of white wings for the head of another demon. Overjoyed, the demon killed one of his own and plucked the head right off its still-warm body.

The angel then led the demon to heaven, where he underwent centuries of the cruelest tortures imaginable. Finally, the pain was so great that he lost consciousness - at which point his dark wings turned the promised shade of white.
Not sure if this was posted already https://www.instagram.com/p/BGnrvZIMcOS/

No one knows yet. We know a few things about Death Stranding:

-3rd person action game
-story-driven
-open-world but not in the traditional sense

The dead whales on the shore have been "stranded", along with the rest of the fish... we have what is presumably the game's incarnation of "death" floating above the character's location (the 5 mysterious floating characters we saw), and they're the ones "stranding death".

All I see is familiar TPP elements like the skulls (Ludens SCREAMS Parasite Unit) and whales (Moby Dick influence).

the one true God is Doctor Doom and we should all be worshiping him.
Now watch Norman Reedus' character team up with a sniper chick who wears a thong and pasties and nothing else. That's what I'll keep coming for.

This is not the greatest sig in the world, no. This is just a tribute.
I'm just interested in topless Norman Reedus.

His eyebrows sparkling, his white beard hangs down to his chest. The thatched mats, spread outside his chise, spread softly, his splendid attos. He polishes, cross-legged, his makiri, with his eyes completely absorbed.

He is Ainu.

The god of Ainu Mosir, Ae-Oine Kamuy, descendant of Okiku-Rumi, He perishes, a living corpse. The summers day, the white sunlight, unabrushed, ends simply through his breath alone.

wrong

Norman Reedus will be the sniper that wears a thong and pasties and nothing else.

Actually, I take that back. That's actually kind of refreshing, in a way.

Screencapped for the moment the mighty Verbatim fell to the clutches of his primal instincts.

Nah it's just funny that you've mentioned the sexism issue in vidya and how all male characters are buff handsome dudes.

Ah good, I figured.

On a totally unrelated note: I fucking love Kojima.

Because Kojima enjoys making trailers for his games more than making the games themselves lmao

The cuffs are really interesting to me.
Futuristic looking, only one is on, and generally a bit out of place for where the trailer takes place.
I'm going to assume they're metaphorical in some way (because of course), literally everything else in the trailer has the metaphorical feel.

Overall  it feels good to have a new Kojima game out there. Especially one that is so damn cryptic in the presentation.

Understandable. Trailers are almost always more exciting than the game they advertise.

Also I just noticed that baby has what appears to be an electric cable for an umbilical cord.

I hope we get at least 7 trailers for this game because every time we do we get more godly music in our lives.

Hinting towards technology? Or perhaps just a way to keep it alive as Reedus also has a scar down his front.
The hand marks are equally as intriguing. Very prominent in the trailer as a whole as well as being all over Reedus.

The healthy man does not torture others - generally it is the tortured who turn into torturers.
Looks somewhat interesting

The baby is infant Quiet, and they're waking up in the middle of a tragic oil spill.
