I care

IT'S OVER

>>713213973 (OP)
I don't own a PS5 and it won't be on Steam till summer next year.

>>713213973 (OP)
yup, still kino
4 more days left

>>713213973 (OP)
I sold my ps5

i cared
i preordered
i took a day off to play it on release

it will only matter when they release it on pc a year later

Sam bros…

>>713213973 (OP)
Not on PC.
I have to wait several more months.

>>713217174
If they kill off Solid Sn--err, Ernesto I'm dropping the game.

>>713213973 (OP)
>playing Gojimbo vidya in 2025
embarassing

>>713213973 (OP)
I care
(for the PC release)

>>713213973 (OP)
>What went wrong?
The first Death Stranding.

>no ps4 release

>>713217174
We're getting MGS2'd again aren't we

>>713217174
When's the last time an achievement spoiled such a big reveal again?

>>713218364
Thank christ. It's taken 5 fucking years for the ps5 to actually get a legitimate exclusive that takes advantage of the hardware

>>713218391
how? i don't even understand what the achievement hints towards

>>713213973 (OP)
Haven't there been threads daily? Greentext doesn't magically make something true.

>>713218501
Keep Lou safe. As in, I'm going to die now so please make sure she's okay, take care of her.

>>713215349
This. I'll wait for the fully beta tested directors cut edition

>>713217174
I don't thinks this implies a MGS2 twist he is most likely Lou's real father

>>713218639
it probably won't have a director cut, that was mandated by sony and they no longer own death stranding

>>713218501
The Solid Wop is the new Raiden

Kojima did say that something happen mid point in the game that will shock players
though he could be overhyping himself

>>713213973 (OP)
I havent even played the original

>DS1 was all about how Sam is not a fighter he represents the average worker that's where the rope and stick analogy comes from
>Meanwhile DS2 will let you play as some super soldier because le rope is not enough anymore
Bravo Kojumbo

>>713218765
Source?

>>713218686
Just recycling the Cliff character with Neil, from story beats to gameplay sections, is so fucking lazy

>>713213973 (OP)
I don't have a PS5

>>713219298
stop judging before you played it, let kojambo cook

>>713218765
Yeah you're supposed to be blown away to learn Neil is Lou's real father as he dies. Kojima thinks this will shock people because he's a hack writer governed by cliches

can someone who played the game spoil already or at least tell if it's kino

>>713219478
Kojima already said Neil's purpose is to replace Cliff's character, and we saw the gameplay where you fight Neil and its identical to Cliff's sections.

>>713219591
again >>713219478

Some people are getting their physical copies so expect leaks soon

>>713219692
>ignore your lying eyes

I actually might buy it, bored as hell right now and want something to play.
I didn't hate Death Stranding, had my fair share of issues with the story, characters, dialogue and writing but in its defense at least it was an original idea, an original game with a new, original setting. Even if it's far from perfect it did a lot of things well that no other game has done, and was a very different experience from many other games I've played.
From what I can tell, Death Stranding 2 looks like it makes a fair bit of improvements while keeping the same cringe-inducing dialogue and writing, which I can look past if the rest of the game is interesting enough.

>>713217174
isn't that character just another memory ghost like mads was

>>713219578
some fag got it already and said it's probably the best looking game he has ever seen but besides that he thankfully didn't reveal much... hope it stays that way

>only story of a white man with his white "son" is made by a jap

Damn it Kojima, I'm sorry for everything I said.

Also I kind of want to experience it as it comes out since other players will be building structures at the same time I am, making the experience more interesting.

I didn't play the first game until a few months ago, and by then all the structures were everywhere, and I didn't even need to build hardly anything myself except the roads.

>>713220014
I wish I had a PS5 to do this, death stranding is really a game carried by it's community. for good and bad : if they keep building all the time, the game becomes extremely easy, if there's no one, the game becomes a lot more challenging

we dont need ps plus to see others structures right? otherwise im playing offline.

>Death Stranding 2
>Metal Gear Solid 3 Delta
>Silent Hill F

The rest of 2025 is going to be fun.

>>713220167
A new studio made of former kojimapro need to reveal themselves for a July release to complete the summer of kino

>>713220165
thanks to kojima online is completely free

>>713220165
Wasn't the case on the first game I believe so it should be the same here too

>>713218159
I just got to that part last night. It was painful

Will Kojima do another "wait for one hour in real life thing" just like the fake ending of the first game?

>>713220256
>>713220278
cool, didn't play first one on PlayStation. played it on release on pc. can't wait to see randomly placed bridges with a billion likes again

>>713217174
>Carrying about Nu-jima stories

Every twist he's tried to pull was predicted since MGS3

>>713219982
It's his "daughter"

>>713213973 (OP)
The fuck you want us to talk about?

>>713220770
Lou is based, just look at that cutie

Do you really think it’s gonna be 80 hours long for the main story?

>>713213973 (OP)
>No one cares

>>713221476
probably not, I hope not, it's too long, 30/40 hours is good

>>713221476
that would suck, but I'll probably be playing that much

>>713217174
SOLID SNAKE BROS

What his name again?

Im not buying a ps5 for one game

>>713224504
But you bought a switch for one game

2019
>It's not a walking simulator! Kojima-san wouldn't do that.
>Okay it's a walking simulator. And that's a good thing. Americans are great fans of first-person shooters and Death Stranding isn't one, it flies higher.
2025
>Prease buy my shooting game
Early reviews in
>I made it bad on purpose

>>713224504
same im just gonna wait for the DS2 release in december DS1 came out 8 months after so 6 months sounds good enough

>>713213973 (OP)
there's a vtuber in it

>>713224470
Dunno. Don't really care either

>no Pekora achievement
Lame

>>713213973 (OP)
>convoluted walking sim
No thanks

>>713213973 (OP)
PS5 has been out for like 5 years, and this is the first (timed) exclusive I'm actually bummed about not being able to play.

>>713230717
Cope Tendie and or PC man

>>713230749
based, fuck normies

>>713213973 (OP)
There has been plenty of threads so far

>>713230831
We dont even know if it will ever leave the PS5

Sam is totally biting the dust

>>713213973 (OP)
I'm trying to go in blind

>>713226671
Delusional, this is at least a year out.

>walking sim
>pandering to trannies more than any other demographic (TWO trannies in the game, plus transtuber shit)
>no gameplay
>Kojima literally said he made the game shit on purpose
Nobody serious gives two shits about La Creatividad, Geoff.

>>713231001
There's no chance it doesn't imo.
Damn near everything is timed exclusive now.

>>713231176
DS1 was a bit more experimental. This one Sony might want to bring the heat and put pressure on people to get a PS5 by making the wait longer

>>713218583
>>713217174
This could just as easily mean that Solid Snakeman is related to Lou in the same way Sam was to BB, and he's asking sam to keep lou safe

>>713224504
I'm getting one for this game and GTA 6

>>713231216
I agree it might take longer to come to PC than people are expecting. But I still think it's definitely coming.

>>713231015
So Sam and lou are gonna die?
Tomorrow was already confirmed to be Lou from the future after she gets sent to the beaches.

>>713217174
Isn't that the driver from the start of the first game, with Igor?

>>713231339
It wouldn't make sense for Sam to die or be replaced. It would be like if they replaced ripley half way through aliens.
I think Fragile will be the one that dies, which is why tomorrow is wearing fragile's little arm things, and I think its relatively foreshadowed by the trailers showing fragile trying to protect the baby?

>>713213973 (OP)
I took next week and the first three days of the week after off work to play it.

>>713213973 (OP)
noone cares cause its on ps5 only

>>713232017
There are several examples in this thread of people who care. Why are you seething?

>>713218765
Said the same shit about Quiet. Kojima is Japan's Todd, the dude just says shit and regurgitates MGS.

>>713224470
Floppy Lizard

I was playing the game again after a couple years, I just spent hours zipping back and forth the snow area. Fuck mountains.

>>713224470
Copyrightinfringeman

>>713232742
NOOOOOOO YOURE NOT PLAYING THE GAME RIGHT!!!! You have to use ladders and ropes and thermal pads and that one jet pack thing you get from completing a billion mountain knot missions and if youre stupid maybe also those cargo cannons!!!

I turned off the online stuff but new bridges and shit keep popping up regardless, is it only for a new game from scratch or can I not do it midway?

>>713213973 (OP)
See, I would be excited for Death Stranding 2 if it weren't for Death Stranding 1 eating a whole big bag of dicks.
Fucking boring game, Kojima fell off hard.

>>713231593
No, that guy was played by Yuri Lowenthal

>>713231736
Kojamble confirmed there’s only gonna be 2 Death Stranding games, so he can do whatever he wants with the story

Who are the troons?

Any indication from the trophies so far that we'll be switching protagonists?

>>713234281
Apparently there's no Raiden plot twist but we switch characters during some scripted parts.

>>713234217
Hunter "male passport" Shaffer and the Capcom tranny who got AIDS from doing porn.

He’s in

>>713234806
Die-hardman with a vengeance

>>713213973 (OP)
how many patches should I wait before pirating it?

>>713213973 (OP)
There's a guy that uses an electric guitar as a weapon as though he's playing guitar hero in a life and death battle.
That's fucking cringe.

>>713235165
you're just not kino-brained enough to understand it

>only on console with no other games
did it to themselves

>>713213973 (OP)
Kojima is a hack and he is not getting more of my money.

>People have early copies
>Still no leaks
It's literally the exact same as the first one.

>>713224470
Vinny.

>>713213973 (OP)
Only release I've been genuinely excited for this year, aside from MH.
I really hope it delivers (get it?) a little more than MH did though.

>>713213973 (OP)
i would be but timed exclusive, playing ds1:dc rn tho, love kojima

>>713213973 (OP)
>No one cares
Speak for yourself rahim.

>>713213973 (OP)
Most of the hype died with DS1

>>713213973 (OP)
I'll be waiting for the PC release.

>>713213973 (OP)
Some small indie team already made a better Death Stranding

>>713236952
>this war of mine devs
Based

its too hot to play

>>713213973 (OP)
not on PC. the moment I saw it was ps5 exclusive for a year I decided I wouldn't just wait for the pc release, I'd wait for a big discount

>>713213973 (OP)
no pc
it doesnt exist

>>713213973 (OP)
I hope it runs on my pc as good as the first game
They did a really good job with that one

>>713213973 (OP)
Grindy ass game with bullshit controller mechanics. Yeah I don't care.

Average dialogue in this game/movie:
>Sam, it's FIGHTLIKEHELLDUDE, the ATs are attacking the base. You need to use the KKP to defend us
>Why me?
>Because the AI of BS is using you to expand the Shartium network along the coast of UCBA
>UCBA? You mean United Cucks of Black America?
>Yes, contact FARTMAN for more information

>>713213973 (OP)
>What went wrong?
PS5 exclusive

>>713231216
Sony is not in control of the death stranding ip anymore. They fully released in to Kojima. I would expect a pc port within the next 6 months.

>>713226019
It's a hiking simulator

Alright, credits rolling for real this time. The beach part pissed me off, but the actual ending hit its mark. Now I’m hyped, just hope 5 days is enough of a break.

>>713238983
>Being a father didn’t make me scared, it made me brave

Bro I still haven't gotten to the first city in the original game

>>713238983
Everything past Heartman is so incredibly stupid, bonkers retarded and baffling on the story side of things.
But yeah, the ending turned it around quite a bit for me, both the Cliff stuff and Lou's freedom.

>>713239510
Amelie really drags the narrative down

>>713213973 (OP)
>What went wrong
people played the first movie.

>>713213973 (OP)
>snoy exclusive

don't care

>>713238983
I wasn't even planning on replaying DS1 before 2 but I started it and ended up finishing it in about 6-7 days, the gameplay loop is just fun and compelling to me.

>>713213973 (OP)
any leaks yet

>>713233654
>unreal asset flip
why are all Death Stranding haters fucking bot-like?

>>713244167
>Kojima criticisms are consistent because they are true
>Bot-like
Holy cope

>>713231217
its definitely this. If Sam dies its going to be towards the start/middle of the game and not chapter 11. Additionally if Sam dies in ch 11 you'll only play as niell for like 3-6 chapters max which seems very odd and not that likely

>>713244354
the game isnt made in unreal though?

>>713213973 (OP)
Kojima's fatigue. Old hack making the same game over and over.

>>713244371
The rumours are that Fragile will be the playable character for the last half of the game, I don't see Sam dying unless they come up with some hackneyed way to remove his repatriate abilities.

>>713244845
interesting. Wouldn't have guessed fragile at all. they could probably get away with injuring sam or putting him in a coma like state that doesn't repatriate him

>>713244354
retard

>>713244371
Even if Sam died that wouldn't have to mean he's no longer playable, the game could continue in the world of the dead.

>>713244564
damn you can deliver packages in post-apocalyptic world in MGS1-V?

>>713239130
You literally start in the first city
why do death stranding threads of all threads get so many incoherent copy-pasted replies?

>>713244354
It literally does not use unreal engine and the custom 3D scanning/motion capture for characters and vehicles was a major selling point

>>713213973 (OP)
I liked Death Stranding 1 but I'm not really interested in seeing more of its world, unless the sequel goes in a radically different direction I don't see why it needed to be made.

>>713245879
nintendogaf has a particular hateboner for Kojima games, dunno why desu.

>>713245973
>unless the sequel goes in a radically different direction
do you live under a rock perchance?

>>713224470
Big Smallman

>>713230749
I didn't enjoy Death Stranding 1, and this is still too based to deny.

>>713246036
I've seen some of the trailers but the core gameplay still looks pretty similar

>>713246117
Bunch of new environments and gadgets and such, and then like a fluid upgrade system. Also there's animal rescue now

>>713236634
Kojima is a total hack and he will get more of my money.

>>713246117
> I didn't like this game defined entirely by its unusual gameplay, they should make the new one be a different type of gameplay so I can like it
I can sense the broccoli cut through the screen.

>>713246285
i can guarantee you its millenial fag
they hate gameplay or anything that looks ''samey'' even from small glance of the game.

>no pc release

>>713247441
just wait 1 year. you'll have to wait 2 for GTA 6

How are there still no leaks?

Kojima has never let me down yet, I trust him

>>713247628
There are rarely any leaks about Kojima games since the MGS4 incident.

>>713213973 (OP)
given the games /v/ is hyped about:
the child's not sexy enough.

>>713248037
MGSV was leaked before launch I remember, some anon here got a hold of the art book and dumped it

>>713248310
Printed stuff is a lot harder to prevent leaking.

>>713247441
I'm so pathetic that I'm looking forward to watching live streams of it because of this. I would be playing it day 1 if it dropped but I don't have the self control to just ignore the ps5 launch so I'll just spoil the shit out of myself
