Hideo Kojima corrects himself with a flex, says actually 79.5% of Death Stranding 2 players "are continuing to play" past its ending instead of the 79% he first reported: "Please keep enjoying the game"

So sorry, Death Stranding 2 director Hideo Kojima actually made a huge mistake in what he told you – 79% of people are no longer continuing to play the cinematic action game past its ending, like he first said about a week ago. The fact is, 79.5% of players are now devoting themselves to playing Death Stranding 2 even after they finished it.

You might notice that 79.5 is a bigger and slightly more awe-inspiring number than 79, and you'd be correct in making that observation. So, sorry about that. But Kojima is happy to correct himself in a new Twitter post, in which he admits that "at the start of the week, it looks like many more 'Sam-ones' have reached the ending of the story."
