The likely explanation is that the playtesters are now used to Death Stranding mechanics since Death Stranding already exists. I remember there being a lot of people who thought Demons Souls and Dark Souls 1 were bad because they weren’t used to the mechanics, and now Elden Ring has sold over 30 million copies to almost universal acclaim.
Me and my friend taking 5-6 hours playing dark souls 1 and never even making it to the second bonfire, thinking the game takes place entirely within that first castle area, lmaoooo
Death Stranding is a game that grows on you real slowly. If the second is anything like the first, then that’s the difference right there.
