It should have been more of a walking simulator there was too much combat

Maybe, the clunk in combat was the biggest issue the whole game had. That clunk could have been hidden. With that said they're clearly going for a Metal Gear style gameplay thing. Problem is that the last game Kojima made the movement was polished to perfection even if the game itself was unfinished.

I have never played a metal gear game. I really enjoyed the first few hours of death stranding, just hiking around and using ladders but stopped playing when it threw a big old video game boss fight with a giant oil sharktopus thing at me
