10 Video Games You Should Turn Off Before The End

1. Death Stranding

It should be pretty obvious that this one's on here, especially to Metal Gear Solid fans. There's no polite way of putting it: Kojima needs an editor to trim the fat off of his scripts, with Death Stranding being no different.

Whether you enjoyed the repetitive nature of the gameplay is another story. It makes no bones about what kind of game it is from the start, so this isn't a criticism of that.

What it is, though, is a critique of how unnecessarily long the game is, to just damn well end.

We've figured out what Amelie is, we know that Higgs was under her control (so to speak... but he's also a wild card), and that should have been it.

That should be the end, wrap it right there.

Alas no.

Instead, we get treated to a few more hours of Die-Hardman waffling on, the look on Sam's face echoing my thoughts: "I do not want to be here either".

I mean, the "Princess Beach" bit and all that slow motion running was bad enough. The game should have ended before that.
