I shit you not, Death Stranding 2 has one of the worst stories and characters ever written for a videogame. It's up there with Dragon Age Veilguard.
What a complete waste of time HOLY FUCK

Care to elaborate?

Sounds on par for a Kojima game.

Who the fuck cares? I gotta DELIVER those packages.

Was the first one even well written? Being in a permanent state of brooding and depressed isn't a substitute for good acting.

>>713509131 (OP)
i was just thinking about how i dont care/ remember anything about Sam, also i really wish there wasn't so many actors, it kinda felt like they wink at the cam some times. when i say they wink i mean outside of the credits, its so strange.

I already see the hardcore kojimbo fanboys calling it absolute game of the yar

Either substantiate with spoilers explaining why or fuck off. I'm a kojima hater, but false accusations are reprehensible.

>>713509131 (OP)
Stop being such a negative nancy, op. Really, it's a pathology with you.

>the release of a new Kojima game heavily promoted by Sony
>2 (two) threads on /v/ and both are shitting on it
How humiliating is it going to be for kojima when sony pulls their funding and he can't afford to bribe celebrities with roles to hang out with him anymore?

>>713509131 (OP)
I doubt it could be worse than die hardman, princess beach and all that "i'm 12 and this is deep" garbage in DS1.

>>713509131 (OP)
Is it better or worse than MGS2?

>>713509131 (OP)
Post your ps5 and the game fatty. You don't even have it.

Trans Obscur is forgotten, xister.

Looks like he accomplished his goal. He was worried it was too mainstream when everyone liked it. Good thing he went back to add some subverted expectations.

Nigga's never seen the Princess Beach scene.

It seems to be going for "this is even deeper" shit.
I get the impression this game gets praise for the technical fidelity more than the writing.

Princess beach is actually a cute little scene and exchange. Lacking context it is easy to clown on, but it is exactly the kind of organic exchange you would have with a friend. The real problems of the writing come later. Princess Beach is based though.

Can I pirate it yet?

>>713509131 (OP)
Agreed.

>>713509131 (OP)
Kojima has always been a weirdo but he has no restrictions anymore, so the games are just a total fucking mess.

>>713509131 (OP)
agree
at least DAV was fun to laugh at
DS2 might as well not exist

Checks out with the cutscenes I've been seeing but yeah, it sounds "okay" but DS1's plot is better overall by simply having more factions/sides involved in the story and the initial novelty of introducing us to the world.
