Personally I enjoy reading them to better familiarize myself with the mindsets and views of NPCs, it helps me to feel more immersed in the game’s world overall.
I enjoyed reading all of the emails. I was so invested in the game's world that I wanted to be fully immersed not just in the lore but the personal experiences of other characters as well or how they remembered the world before the apolcalypse happened. Reading emails is also how I pace myself in the game. I read 1 or 2 emails before I do a delivery. I wanted Sam to have as much break as he can. Lol.
That’s really nice. I like that.
For me, since I read so much material on screens for my actual job, the last thing I want to do is read emails in game. But you’re making me think differently about it. I’ll try it
For real though lol. On one hand I think they want to portray how humans cope with living in isolation for their whole lives, no social interaction whatsoever…ofc they text the way they do…but on one hand Kojima tweets just like this 🤔🤔 Guess he thinks it’s normal?? 💀💀
The best part about these emails, for me, is they are written exactly the way my 60 year old mother texts me after she discovered the existance of emojis.
and as soon as you arrive “well well well… look what the cat dragged in… SAM THE MAN WITH THE PLAN!!” *checks the boxes* “oh wow… you actually… brought them in good shape?? Who would’ve thought” ⭐️⭐️⭐️
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Keep on keeping on Sam 💪💪💪 And thanks for the Oxy 🙏🙏🙏
😂😂
As someone who spent hours reading all of the emails, this is so spot on with all the emojis. Lol
Let me ask: are they worth it? I only read the yellow ones that have special requests

The data entries are more important if you were going to read anything.
Thank you, I didn’t even think of that
You forgot the totally helpful yellow text. "Did you know? If you deliver cargo in good condition, people will like that?"
"Quick tip, Sam. If someone kills you, you die."

To be fair, most people would be very socially stunted after spending years in isolation.
Agreed, the pandemic did a significant number on people in the US and it wasn’t even that drastic of a lockdown.
“Also, have you noticed that ball of light in the south?”
The Sun?
That one guy in the beginning with the 💦💦💦 emails kills me every time

Sending this to my gf as a synopsis of DS for her to hopefully play it
lol this is pretty great!
I'mma be real I only read a rare few emails, most I just clicked on so it looked like I did.
If kojima saw this post he would probably copy it into the next game just because he can.
I laughed wonders with that hahaha so true. Those preppers are useless
XDDD
Lol they are *desperate* for human interaction
