Hi everyone. I need a little help with deciding. I have some unused funds on steam, which I'm looking to turn into some game(s). I really can't decide between Death Stranding & Cyberpunk 2077. Tell me why I should / shouldn't buy one of these games or if you know any other similiar game to these 2, where I'll be able to spend 100s of hours, I'll be more than interested to hear it :) But please, no spoilers!

You can enter giveaways here, here & also here.

Cyberpunk 2077
DEATH STRANDING

These two games aren't similar at all. Only thing they have in common they are both AAA. :D I believe Death Stranding is for a specific kind of player who likes story and doesn't mind walking simulators if you are unsure i guess you will enjoy Cyberpunk more.

I should've specified it a little more :P I meant they're both open world games with a long (and interesting) story + side missions. As a Kojima fan, I really love his games, so I don't really think this one would be different for me :P

In my opinion Cyberpunk is the better buy, although it depends on what games you enjoy. It also releases almost a month earlier than Death Stranding for PC.

Death Stranding is already out on PS4, so you can look at reviews and gameplays. It many ways it's an elaborate exploration game (or walking simulator if you're cynical) with some unique mechanics. Most of the game will be spent on delivering packages around to different people, trying to overcome terrain obstacles, a few enemies and anomalies that will attempt to stop you or slow you down. IMO it's a unique take on a game, but I prefer the AAA action RPG that Cyberpunk is promising to be.

The Deus Ex series follows a very similar theme to Cyberpunk. Futuristic world with body modification, corruption, powerful corporations, etc.

Deus Ex Human Revolution is probably the best one if you just want to check it out. The first game is great, but very old with some archaic mechanics, so it might not be to everyone's taste. Mankind Divided is pretty good and improves on Human Revolution in gameplay, but the story is disjointed, slow, and ends on a poor cliffhanger.

I have a PS4, but it was announced that it's going to be released on PC as well, so I didn't end up buying it on playstation (yet :P). I might give The Deus Ex series a chance since I've never played any game from the series, thanks for the recommendation :)

I think Cyberpunk 2077 would be the better option here as it is an open-world game with almost limitless of possibilities as shown in gameplay trailers, etc. I think that Death Stranding is a game that 'is fun watching someone else play' but not play yourself, but all of this is just my opinions though, hope you have with the one you'll buy then! (I haven't played both of the games so take my opinions with a grain of salt) :)

Death Stranding has been out for awhile so you can look at reviews for opinions. Personally the gameplay looks dull and repetitive. I would take the chance on Cyberpunk if you like FPSes and that kind of theme.

Both games look great, but as already stated, they are very different. Probably I would decide for Cyberpunk.

Thanx for the giveaways
