I hope death stranding 2 adds more cqc moves, running around and punching mules while throwing loot crates at them was really fun.

It's both and that's a good thing

I hope there are actual NPCs to interact with instead of only existing in cutscenes

I dislike these types of arguments. your essentially attempting to control the discussion by limiting the scope to 2 choices, while simultaneously only providing 2 choices that satisfy a desired outcome. it's intellectually dishonest.

>>713148797
seems like this will have more character interaction with the ship base thing

>>713148938
Congrats anon, you solved the puzzle of 4chan. You get to leave now.

>>713148938
he's been spamming it all day, just let him rot in the future

>>713148938
It either is or isn't a walking simulator.
Kojima's quote is real, he feels his game flies higher than shooters. Then he makes DS2 with more shooting and fighting to make the game more appealing, proving is he is a hack. Playtesting reveals his game still sucks, so he copes by saying he made it bad on purpose, pic related.
Now shills will use Elle Fanning's feet to save this dumpster fire.

all week. this nigga has nothing going for him. the only thing keeping him from killing himself is his rampant hateboner for kojima.

>>713149192
>It either is or isn't
again you are trying to control the scope of the discussion, you are arguing in bad faith.

>>713149626
Kojimbo drones can only attack and mock criticisms, but they will never actually explain why their "game" is good.
You can't. Because there is no gameplay worth defending. You are a Kojima fan boy who will eat whatever slop he shits out. You like the story and aesthetics, but that doesn't make a video GAME that you have fun PLAYing. It is clear Kojima wants to make movies, and movies only. But he is a hack who will get laughed out of Hollywood, so he can only make shitty movie "games".

i hope there's a post game where norman reedus says "we are all Death Stranding, too" and then you get to make your own toon to do deliveries with like how you could do missions as your soldiers in mgsv

>>713149870
so what will you have to live for once kojima dies? with kojima dead and gone, what will you direct your hate at? or will you just keel over as well, having nothing to look forward to in your day? because right now, literally ALL you do is shitpost about how much you hate kojima and his fanboys.

I just wanted one underground city where I can explore with npcs hanging around. I thought we would have gotten this in the first game but no. I enjoyed the gameplay and being a porter but the map was really small for being a representation of America.

Is there any word on if enemies dynamically roam the map instead of them being in preplanned areas that they never leave?

>>713149870
I don't think you understand; whether something is considered "good" or not is dependent on personal preference. more importantly you are arguing in bad faith by attempting to control the discussion: "it's a walking sim and that's good" "it's not a walking sim". you created a straw man that by design is used to manipulate the discussion. feel free to continually repeat yourself adnausum if you like. I recommend going elsewhere and discussing something you enjoy.

I just want proper vehicle physics

>>713150303
The game would be better if there were no vehicles at all

>>713150262
No, it is not up to debate. You might like eating literal poo. But that doesn't mean it's good. If you like DS, you have bad taste.
>It was good in my mind
Is not a valid argument. Arguing you can't make objective value statements about art is how we get bullshit art like taping a banana onto a wall.

>>713150372
Your anger stems from you not having a ps5

>>713150372
kys you filtered fuck

You can learn new moves from a martial arts master, not even kidding it was said in one of the previews and if you paid attention to the pre-order trailer you might guess who it could be

>>713150479
Ask me how I know you're a shill

>>713150582
wait, are you telling me that death stranding 2 is jackie chan?

>>713149870
>You can't. Because there is no gameplay worth defending
Combat is fun with a variety of ways to takedown enemies with interesting weapons like the bola gun. The graphics are great and the game is optimized very well. The soundtrack is really good with tracks like I’m leaving by low roar. The environment is very dreary and apocalyptic but also has nice mountain ranges and views. The entire multiplayer function is cool with players helping one another and building infrastructure for other porters to use all while not being forced on you.all of the different gadgets to help with deliveries are engaging enough to experiment with.

Dealing with mules and BTs is either run away or use a tool that completely trivializes it. No inbetween.

>The graphics are great and the game is optimized very well.
Not gameplay. Good optimization is good though.

>The soundtrack is really good with tracks like I’m leaving by low roar.
Game?

>The environment is very dreary and apocalyptic but also has nice mountain ranges and views.
Game?

>The entire multiplayer function is cool with players helping one another and building infrastructure for other porters to use all while not being forced on you.
The multiplayer aspect helps you SKIP the game by removing the chore of walking. Even kojimbo fanboys hated it. Imagine instead of dark souls summons, you just get the boss disappearing.

>all of the different gadgets to help with deliveries are engaging enough to experiment with.
What like ladders, ropes, bridges? It's obvious where and when they're used. It'a non-gameplay. The vehicles are completely unaffected by the balancing mechanics that Sam has on foot. Rendering the gameplay moot.

>combat
Forgot to add: boss fights are a complete joke bullet sponge that does nothing except scatter your cargo, making you pick them up. This is as fun as 52 pick up. Have fun kojimbo goy.
