Look, I'm an avid gamer who follows the scene just as much as the rest of you guys and today the biggest mind fuck happened when I watched the latest trailer (again ) for Death Stranding.

It's called Death STRANDING. STRANDING !

Wtf?!

For over a year now I have always called it death standing and have never been corrected on it. Nor have I heard it pernounced any other way.


Silly thread I know, but I can't be the only only one here who has done goofed.

Death Standing would have been a better name.

 

[Breads]

Wait until you realize that stranding has something to do with the cords connecting people to seemingly random things...

 

[AllGamer]

Never heard Death Standing. It was always Death Stranding

 

[Noks415]

So you've actually heard people say Standing instead of Stranding?

 

[Übermatik]

Kojima has talked about the name, which makes it clear why it's called Death Stranding:

“So you call it ‘mass stranding’ when you have a lot of whales or dolphins stranded to the beach.” Kojima explained. “When they’re alive, it’s called a ‘life stranding’, and when they’re dead and they’re stranded they call it ‘death stranding’. So this means that something from some world comes and is stranded, that’s what it means.”
