Since Kojima’s been saying that the Death Stranding film is going to tell a story that can only be told through the film medium, I really hope it’s a prequel to the game. There are a lot of background events represented through text and dialogue that wouldn’t translate well to a video game format on their own.
It’d be really cool to see the start of the Stranding, Victor and Igor’s backstory (as seen in the DS novelization), snippets from Sam’s childhood/early years with Bridges, the development and construction of the chiral network, and most of the events described in Higgs’ journals.
Coffin’s decision to leave her family behind, start a terrorist uprising by radicalizing the porters who unknowingly abetted human sacrifices by delivering BBs for the chiral network, and the decision to adopt Higgs as her protégé? That story alone would be worthy of a film.

you guys should read this thing my friend wrote
“Your thoughts about Marcus Aureulis’ Meditations are just as valid as the thoughts of a PhD in philosophy and the Amazon delivery driver on your street, as long as everyone can provide evidence in the text for what they think. Maybe that is an obstinate, anti-intellectual thing to say, but I hold it to be true. Critical thinking has no educational barrier, and education comes with no obligation to instill critical thinking in its recipient.”
