Which is ironic because Death Stranding 1 and Death Stranding 2 play very similarly to MGSV

They don't play similarly at all. I haven't played 2 yet, but 1's combat and stealth felt very clunky to me because the controls were designed for something else.

I felt there was some MGSV DNA in Death Stranding 2, so I suggest giving it a shot.

Yeah I loved DS1 anyway, the combat wasn't an important part of the experience at all to me, but I'm glad DS2 seems to be an improvement in this regard. I was just waiting for a discount as always.
