We have seen in Death Stranding trailers that Sam has Norman Reedus's tattoos, but why?
My theory is that Sam is actually a digital clone of Norman Reedus who serves as an avatar for us to enter the universe of death stranding and help them out. Let me explain it.
"We are here for you" from Asylums for the feelings.
There is a theory in science that states that our reality may actually be a computer simulation of a more advanced civilization. We can also say the contrary; we are an advanced civilization which can create a computer simulation which is chiral to our reality: the Death Stranding Universe.
So I believe Kojima productions created this chiral universe which reflects our reality with one purpose: To let humanity experience this universe and to create connections between us to help the people in this universe who are fighting the death stranding.
So in order to enter this digital universe we have to do it digitally with our PS4, and taking control of an avatar created with a scan of Norman Reedus which has no memory. The handcuffs in the game represent our connection to this avatar.
But how the gameplay will connect players around the world?
Well, in this universe there is a big mystery... the Death Stranding, and this menace is hunting all the beings from this universe so the purpose is for us to find out how this death stranding started and how to stop it.
Humans of the chiral universe are losing very fast against this menace because they are powerless against them, but what about Sam? An Avatar who is not from this world and can simple respawns whenever he dies?
Imagine this universe has physic laws similar to ours and let’s consider the theory of the multiverse which states that it exists a universe for each possibility or decision taken.
Considering this, when we connect to our PS4 we take control of Sam and experience one of those universes depending on our decisions, this way every single player would have a very different experience and gather different information.
But then in order to solve the mystery we need to gather the information from all players, we need to share it, to make connections between my chiral universe and your chiral universe.
Maybe we can load into this world bare naked and start getting resources, weapons, information, which we can recover every time we die while in that purgatory state (Spawn loading). That is all the boxes Sam is carrying. So it is like a survival game, but not survival of the individual (Sam), survival or preservation of the clues and tools we have gathered to help this universe against the Death Stranding Menace.
The universe of death stranding was created to connect us, with a story, with a mystery, with a purpose.
It is a story in which we will all participate and be part of it.
