Probably like 45 mins. And I have a pretty beefy new rig. It likely would have taken me less time to download it with my connection.
I got mine already preloaded. Ready to play tomorrow before work when they unlock at 7am PST/10AM EST.
GMG had it at a discount for $46
Wonder if it was the spinning drive I put it on or what.

This game is not for everyone, and some parts don't seem to mesh with the rest of the game but I put over 80 hours into it on PS4 and loved it.
I feel like, by now, most people should know if they like Kojima or not, right?
Personally, not my style, and the game looks terrible, but his work has never really been anything I've enjoyed. He's very distinct, and I feel like you get him or you don't, without huge middle ground.

My problem is that EVERYTHING is political now. The execrable "Last Jedi" reviewed well not because it was a good movie (it absolutely wasn't) but because it hit the required political tone. Gaming rags are even worse (Just look at the reviews for "Last of Us 2"). I dont know if I trust ANY review site anymore. Did it receive a good review because it's a good game? Or did it receive them because it played the right cards on issues I have no interest in?
If it is mixed just for its weirdness, I can handle that. I mean, it's Kojima.

You're fully through the rabbit hole if you think the reason that film critics liked SW8 was because of political reasons.

Death Stranding PC uses Denuvo DRM, according to this.
Also, 'partial controller support' and apparently not the greatest mouse/keyboard translation. No word on whether or not Steam controllers work fully with Death Stranding so far either.
I guess I'll wait a few months at least, before I pick this up.

Because of typical Japanese storyline and dialogue weirdness?
