After seeing all of these mixed reviews, I feel that my mind is seeing it as a worse game than an 83 generally is. In other words, it's setting the expectation rather low, and this means that when we do get to play the game, we'll likely have a great time with it (as 83 is still good), and may see the game as better than we would have going in with higher expectations.

There will probably be some haters on here, but I expect some people will be claiming this as their GotY due to how much better it was than they expected.

Honest to god, while writing this post the realization hit me that the game is coming out in like 14 hours, and I could perchance be playing this game before the next time I sleep. With this epiphone, I impulsively just took the day off work tomorrow and am now extremely hyped. I've said this before, but I'm an impatient person and a videogame that is months or even weeks away from release is hard to get hyped about, as it's so far off it's not even on my radar. With less than a day before release, Death Stranding just officially hit hype mode for me.
