This is the most fun I've had gaming in years. I feel alive again. This makes Death Stranding 1 look liked Metal Gear: Survive.
I was a big critic of DS1s narrative and missed potential, I take it all back I don't care. It set the stage for this game which properly fleshes out the universe and the gameplay.
Not to mention visually, I keep setting my controller down and marveling at the screen. Pictures do not do it justice. I get teary eye'd just looking at it sometimes.
Don't care if you call me a shill, delusional Kojima fan, whatever. You are objectively wrong. Telling me this game isn't great would be like telling me pussy doesn't feel good. I genuinely will never believe you and I pity you for holding that opinion.
Death Stranding 1 was one of the best games of the century, and proved all the Jewnami's viral haters wrong.
But I will NOT buy a Piss5, or any other console, to play the sequel. Bring it on PC ASAP, Kojibro!
>>713764215 (OP)I'm really mixed on it, I prefer the first game more so. I'm only a few hours in but I really don't like the controls and I wish we had an option to change them.
>>713764346I'm immediately going back and replaying it once I'm done with this one.
And yeah just wait for PC brother.
This nigga lookin' ZESTY, this nigga lookin' MOIST, he's got sugar in his tank, he's light on his feet, he's a Ill bit fruity, he plays for the other team, he dances at the other end of the ballroom, this nigga theatrical, this nigga good with colors, this nigga gonna coordinate yo curtains wit you cushions and that shit gonna look good! This nigga lifts shirts, this nigga on the down low, this nigga be a tollet trader, this nigga gardens uphill, this nigga packs fudge, he's a friend of Dorothy, he feels the love that dare not speak Its name, he loves to dance, he's of the Uranian brotherhood, he indulges in the French vice, he has an antipathic sexual Instinct, he's fluent in Polari, he's a refugee from Sodom, he's on the wrong bus, he bats for the other team, he's temperamental, he's 'one of if you catch my drift.
>>713764363Oh that sucks, what controls do you find to be bad? I guess I noticed a few weird things too, like needing to take my hand off of L3 to unequip my weapon is very odd.
I hadn't really considered it much
Not sure how far you've gotten in a couple hours, have you gotten to Episode 3 yet?
>>713764215 (OP)>>713764764what the fuck do you do in these games? every bit of gameplay I'm forced to see against my will is some guy running around with a box
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
It comes out
>Pretend to win
>>713765029You don't do much. It IS 90% walking around with a box. Kojima drones will point out it's also driving with more boxes but that hardly helps right? Still boring. If walking was so fun, why drive? If walking wasn't fun, the game is 90% filled with it. Kojima drones cannot reconcile this contradiction.
>>713765029hike around like a pioneer. bring internet to a recluse in the middle of nowhere surrounded by ghosts. raid bases, steal their supplies so you can build infrastructure. Your buildings can appear in other players games and you get notifications when it helps them out. If they really appreciate it they can mash a button to send you a ton of likes.
Straight dopamine brother.
it's definitely not for everyone
>>713764215 (OP)>Telling me this game isn't great would be like telling me pussy doesn't feel goodbussy objectively feels better
>>713764764>we want a musical section at the game awards like Alan Wake gotKojima is such a transparent hack. Everything he does is for the sake of getting to hang out with celebrities and win awards
>>713764927well square should be attack, circle should be crouch, l1 and r1 should be flipped, having crouch and breath hold mapped to the same button is really weird, and it's even weirder that it's on r1. the wheel is also really convoluted and I miss how it was in the original. it feels overly designed and uncomfortable to play.
>>713766324I would never try to change your mind about that. I just might note that comparison is the thief of joy. The p(b)ussy you're currently in is the best. We should hesitate to waste the present moment on such distinctions.
>>713766898The funny part is he doesn't even have to pander. His fanboy will already do whatever he wants.
>>713766924I can definitely see where you're coming from, I have hit the wrong button a good number of times. I'll adapt though.
>>713766898Iโm like 99% sure this was actually Tommie Earl Jenkinsโ idea cause he was originally a stage actor
>>713767303yeah I just really don't like the controls, it's not really about adaptating for me personally. I don't accidentally hit the wrong button to perform an action I just don't like how the controls are laid out. I really hope we get an update for custom control schemes. as it is now it's a 10/10 game with a 0/10 control scheme.
>>713764215 (OP)>This makes Death Stranding 1 look liked Metal Gear: Survive.An admittedly unusual comparison because they are opposites - Survive is a narrative step backwards from MGS5 while expanding and enhancing it mechanically.
DS2 expands and improves on DS1 mechanically, but is arguably a step back narratively and atmospherically. Not drastically so, of course.
However a simple way to put it is DS1 and Survive are both actually good games
>>713764215 (OP)Looks like Sam losing the kid he risked his life for in DS1 has taken a toll. I hope there is a happy ending.
Why did she abandon her birds?
All modern open world slop has enemy camps you clear out. That doesnt make it MGS
>first boss is more interesting than any of the bosses from the first game
I'm going to take this as a good sign. Hope it wasnt a fluke.
>>713768694I've only seen through about chapter 7 or 8, but have been surprised at how empathic and well, just plain nice Sam has been coming across in a subtle way.
Kojima did it, I'm finally Norman pilled.
>>713768820The part where a Cyborg Ninja protects you from an army of robots, mask offs and basically says "this time I'm here to protect you" kinda does though
well I'm going to take a break and play more of it tomorrow, hopefully I feel slightly better about it by then but I really don't like the controls. maybe I'll try to remap them in accessibilities? I'll at least make puch square as using circle is like shoving needles under my fingers nails.
>>713765184Gameplay is about efficiency
>>713764215 (OP)I'm just waiting for the PC release, hopefully it won't be as long this time
>>713765505I think an easy mistake people make is that pretty much every single open world or semi open world game for that matter has worthless traversal. You basically point yourself at a map marker and hold forward until you get there, if you're not already nullifying it with stuff like fast travel. Maybe you'll run into things on the way, but in any event, it's just shit you do to get to some place where you actually get to do something, it's filler.
In DS, the traversal IS the gameplay so it actually has systems, goals and hostility towards the player.
>>713764215 (OP)>This is the most fun I've had gaming in years.This shit is just a more of the same. Good game, but the impact is really not there for me this time around.
I'm not a kojimbo sucker, so not even the cringe story is saving it this time orund.
There is still a lot of junk, but in a good way. But there is also a lot of boring moments during gameplay, just like the original game.
People who say DS 1-2 are masterpieces simply didn't try to 100% the games. It's a fucking tragedy of a game loop. Avoid if not for the main quest (if you are into that kind of shit). And if you are not quite sure this is the game for you, play the first one first; it's the same shit.
Did they say anything about "American gun culture" like in the treiler?
>>713775064Yeah, that it was based and a necessity because most people in the world will take advantage of you if you don't have a big stick.
Okay someone tell me the context of Not Snake and Not Rex, I need to know
I'm watching this faggot play it and the game just looks like a worse version of DS1 with piss easy combat
>>713768790Birds aren't real
>>713775740No fucking way he's actually playing it.
I never thought he would come back to this game ever again
>>713775884he's barely trying and went in already hating it, just like the first game
>>713764215 (OP)New pasta?
Agreed, game's great
>>713775064I know there's at least one mission chain where you're sent to sack a weapons factory because conflict in an area is escalating thanks to weapons proliferating, the civvies don't want it but they're being forced to arm themselves to the teeth because others around them are doing the same
I'm still mad about Kojima not saying anything about a PC release. You can have an "exclusivity contract" yet say there's a planned launch on PC for the future. I hope you enjoy the bones Sony are throwing your way, Kojima, you fucking dog.
>>713776385Americans can't keep winning like this
>>713776568be mad at sony, retard. Kojima has no say in this, snoy paid for the development so they get to decide how long the game is exclusive
>>713776568Didn't similar happen with the first one? It's not really unusual for them to not be honking a BUY THE BETTER VERSION NEXT YEAR horn right in the peak of the PS5 versions release window
Our buy DSP does NOT like Death Stranding 2.
>>713775740>he actually kinda enjoyed itWe won
>>713778060I'll wait for Asmongold's review
>>713764215 (OP)so wait if you solved the problem in the first game why is there a second game and why is everything still fucked?
>>713778742You don't solve the problem in the first game, you essentially delay it by convincing a godlike being to not immediately send all known life extinct
So the problems in 2 broadly are a combination of the consequences of an extinction level event being in progress but paused making things go increasingly fucky, and someone trying to flip the switch back to Everything Dies Now mode
>>713764215 (OP)I liked the first game but haven't been following the second. Is the gameplay still the same? Like, it's mainly based around walking & transporting stuff, sneaking around ghosts, combat is discouraged outside of specific scripted story sequences. Idk, I feel like you can't really call the game a "successor" to MGSV if it is. Not saying it's bad, I really liked it, but pretending it's anything similar to MGSV feels a bit disingenuous.
Why did they hagify Lucy in the sequel? Seeing a middle aged woman talk about being pregnant was gross
Anyone know what the use for holding the two triggers and โณ button?
>>7137803052 is much more combat focused.
Most guns have "multipurpose" ammo that auto swaps depending on targets, so very few things can outright kill mules.
New mech enemies make combat a bit more tactical and dangerous.
More offensive tools for BT's.
Stealth mechanics were fleshed out a bit more, with silenced weapons and even tranq guns.
The bandit camps themselves just look ripped right out of MGSV since they straight up have the exact same lensflare effects if searchlights spot you.
where the fuck are my ellie feet pics? someone go "abuse" photo mode for me because I'm never buying a playstation.
>>713766924PS5 allows you to resign those regardless of the game bro
>>713780305Yeah it feels much, much more like MGSV for the stealth sections. It also has more of that sci-fi magic going on with the plot so far. (idk how to explain this, DS1 had it but this feels more focused, more creative)
Don't get me wrong it's still death stranding, and that's a good thing. But you feel the MGS DNA in here.
skipping is overpowered
I pretty much use it all the time
I'm well into cunt-land in terms of progress and this is way too easy. I'm switching to Brutal.
I wish vehicles just didn't exist. The first two hours are basically a completely different game from everything after.
>>713782901Ziplines are much worse than vehicles, once its setup you can zip around with the floating carrier.
Is it crashing for anyone else? every time I drive towards peko from f4 on the road about half way it crashes. I've have around 4 or 5 crashes total all in the past several hours out of 48 hours total.
I guess it could be server issues but I might as well go to bed and see if it works better tomorrow.
This is kojima last game and it's a huge turd, basically a Netflix movie for normies. I blame Geoff for this
>>713783689I've crashed like a dozen times, but its either monorails or auto-driving on roads.
>>713783960not a great day 1 patch
you faggots are building roads too fast.
I want free likes as well!
>>713764363I miss Mads :(. Played 2 hours and it feels just feels like a revamped updated version of DS1 with great visuals ยฏ\_(ใ)_/ยฏ
>>713782901I agree. I like the way vehicles feel a lot more in this game but they should make them very scarce or much further into the game or something
>>713780386I think it would be kind of poor form to cast a husband and wife acting duo then say they need to go in and tweak one of them to make them hotter
>>713764215 (OP)We don't actually like Kojima here tho
Take a look at Pekora
>>713783689Your machine can't handle the rabbit
>>713778060Did he pretended to win already?
>>713785661is this actual propaganda so jap men have kids ? I wonder
>>713778742fragile didnt kill higgs because she is a stupid woman, all the plot its about lou origins and sam getting cucked
>>713780386im more mad she had a face in first game then its retconned given how famously autistically detailed its the REGENDARY KOJIMA
>>713775740It's literally DS1 but better in every single way
>>713785661I haven't played these games but the middle one should have more respect for soft small things in her arms. She would be a bad mother.
>>713785845Let girls have fun
>>713785845she is a terrible babyshitter she killed lou sending it to GROOM beach and turned it into elle fanning then not botter teleport to were she is until sam cucker rescues her from solid luigi
>>713785845She kinda doesn't care too much about motherhood. Cause she's dying and doesn't live past the game.
>>713785927Appreciate while you can. After Kojima gets planted you will never see cute fun stuff in AAA games ever again.
>>713764215 (OP)It's like one of my Japanese animes
Bros I think I love women
>>713775064yes in the higg factories raids part
>>713768874you re gonna fight it 4 times
>>713764215 (OP)I too, OP, LOVE THIS GAME!
Kojima is amazing and this is his BEST work, if you arent already playing DS2 you are missing out!
<remove this part of the message>
Yo where's hunter schafer in this? Also is there a nude mod for her yet?
>>713775884He only is playing it for release hype and he got a free copy from somebody that worked on the game. He dropped the first game very early on.
>>713786693yeah where is my bot money then
>>713786693We don't use bots aroudn these parts. All human manual deliveries.
>>713785661Want one of those plushies
>>713786693I do it for la creatividad
>>713764215 (OP)Does this game have any incredible bangers like that Chvrches song or BB's theme or half the Low Roar songs? I took a quick look at the soundtrack for 2 and it seemed like an intense downgrade.
>>713785661Thank you Kojimbo. You know what we want.
>My name's Sam!
>No way, same here!
kek. I fucking love this goofy game.

I think for me the biggest surprise improvement is how much better the UI is. It's so much more intuitive and smoother to navigate now.
>>713782838It gets harder, ds2 has like 4x the enemy types, the robot sword guys are a pain in the ass
The Chronobiologist is cute
>>713787891I like Minus Sixty One but I don't think the licensed stuff is as good as DS1.

Jesus Christ Kojima is definitely not one to play it safe.
It's a big "meh" from me so far. I liked the first game more by this point. But I'll still finish it. I just don't feel any pressing need to return to it, so the spark isn't there for me. Feels like the first game with some MGS crap tacked on.
>>713781869How? There's no option in game to do so.
>>713793196With PS5 you can do it at the system level
I'm only about to go to Australia now but so far I'm incredibly disappointed.
>map is a lot wiiiiider with stretches of no notable geographical features, aka vehicle centric, yet the driving physics somehow haven't been improved AT ALL since 2019. even indie shit does a better job (for example, Fumes)
>the two central story hooks are incredibly weak. Sam agrees to go to Mexico and link it up for the UCA because... Fragile asked nicely. even though his life now revolves around raising Lou and he's happy to be with her. why would he agree? they didn't even bother to deliver a good argument, Sam's just like "ok"
>then the second story hook which of course happens at the end of the Mexico intro is that Sam helps the woman under whose protection you-know-what happened to link up Australia... just because, I guess. again, there's no like "but if we can go to the Beach then there's hope that we can bring her back!" it's just "ok, guess I'll go lol"
and then the part where the BB suddenly appears in the pod again and laughs and goes on an adventure with Sam just like old times felt incredibly poorly set up. like sure, like always there's gonna be some explanation but the setup is still poor. entire game so far feels like Kojima didn't know how to deliver any compelling reasons whatsoever as to why this sequel even needed to exist.
also, again why Fragile's skin isn't wrinkly anymore will probably be explained later, so don't spoil me, but it's retarded that Sam doesn't think to point it out whatsoever or doesn't think it's strange.
>>713793410>yet the driving physics somehow haven't been improved AT ALL since 2019.Stopped reading right there. Why even bother with such a bold faced lie?
>>713793410>they didn't even bother to deliver a good argument, Sam's just like "ok"Funnier still is if you refuse to take the quest the game just keeps looping you back around to the dialogue. They didn't even try to do anything interesting with it lol.
>>713793532You're going to feel really stupid hours down the line
I have already seen anons complain that the game is racist. Biggest retard filter of the decade.
>>713793512you still get completely stuck on literal pebbles and have to spam jump to awkwardly climb over them, that's exactly how it was in the first game.
>>713793625Oh, so it has an impact? Cool.
>Hours down the line>HoursIf I make it there. DS1 was cool but 2 just feels like MGSV all over again, ie, expensive shit.
>>713793742You literally don't. You glide right over them.
>>713764215 (OP)Metal gear survive was great
>>713785784a little better or massively better because I dropped 1
>normalfag slop
You have Reddit.
>>713793825Better for someone that actually liked 1, 2 isn't going to change your mind if you fundamentally don't like the core of Death Stranding.
>>713793765mgsv was great, ds2 so far, not so much
>>713775740It's DS1 but worse in every way
>>713793868It's the opposite, people who didn't like DS1 will like DS2, because it gets rid of all that "pesky traversal" and now you just mindlessly drive everywhere. People who enjoyed DS1 for its gameplay will be disappointed because everything about DS2 is just significantly dumbed down and it's not like DS1 was challenging, but at least you had to be somewhat mindful playing it.
Has anyone noticed how large Sam's new moveset is, especially when you put down your backpack?
- While holding your backpack, holding x makes you hop at the expense of stamina
- Holding either L2 or R2 and pressing x makes you dodge to the left/right
- Dolphin-diving becomes a dodge roll when holding a handgun
- Double jump offers a bigger boost
- The level 2 lightning spear has its own moveset with charge mechanics
>>713794027You haven't played it, tranny.
>>713793410Fragile goes to Sam because network expansion has compromised his and Lou's hiding place, he takes the Mexico job in exchange for his fugitive status being revoked instead of having to pack up and go on the run again
I think the game would have been much better if it had featured Nenechi instead of Pekora
>>713794064I'm literally playing as we speak, you tranny obsessed retard
>>713794061bodyslam is still king
>>713794187It's literally not possible for someone to think DS2 is more vehicle if they had actually played it, ergo you haven't. Or you're like 3 hours in given that's the like 2nd settlement you actually go to.
>>713792982Why did Amelie do it?
>>713794290so it's actually you who hasn't played the game, given that you don't even know that you don't unlock vehicles until research lab, and therefore I'm obviously back here to max out the star ranking
>>713794464It's almost like I never actually said you unlock vehicles there isn't it. You haven't gotten to Australia if you unironically think this. Retarded shitposting tranny.
>>713794187whos that she cute
>>713794626A pregnant bandit
>>713794027>people who didn't like DS1 will like DS2,Bro don't lie. This is the same exact fucking game and that's personally why I'm disappointed. I wanted more deliberate routing, terrain, traversal options and techniques. We got none of that. It's just DS1 again with nominally better graphics. No one who disliked 1 is going to like 2.
>>713794732The IGN reviewer made a video pre release in which he said that he's reviewing DS2, so he's gonna say what he thinks about DS1 and he didn't like it too much. One of the reasons he cited was that the whole traversal gameplay was tedious and got in the way or the story. Fast forward, he gave DS2 a 9, because it trivialises all that pesky gameplay.
I know Elle Fanning is the big ticket Kojima waifu actress this time around, but I feel like Kutsuna out performs her pretty handily
Im not inducing severe depression by playing the first one to completion so Ill pass.
>>713795031unironically what's the point of climbing anchors anymore
>>713795080>my source is an IGN reviewThis is pathetic even for /v/. Or what IGN is great if it aligns with your conformation bias? Faggot.
>>713794732Just DS1 again? 10 copies please!
>>713764764>Black man being zesty covered in oilDid Kojima predict Diddy...?
>>713795080My gut was telling me from the beginning that all of these effusive previews were just tge marketing machine working overtime and journalists were full of shit. I don't think anybody likes this more or less than 1, they simply recognized Kojima's rising star and DS gaining status since its initial release. It's why something as shitty as FFXVI also got glowing reviews: not wanting to deal with backlash from annoying fans. This is the same exact game. That's why it's disappointing. No normal person who played and disliked 1 is going to pick up 2 and think it's better. It's just the same. This is in the same ballpark as ToTK coming 6 years off of BoTW.
>>713794732DS1 but more is exactly what I wanted and it's exactly what I got.
>>713795189?
I'm literally disappointed in DS2 for the same reason as you. But to me it actually leads to me disliking the game, not just feeling about it the same as DS1, because everything that could've been iterated on meaningfully, wasn't.
>>713793410>even indie shit does a better job (for example, Fumes)oh, you mean a game where the SOLE thing you do is drive does driving better than a game that is more about walking? wow, insightful comment for sure!
Oh here we have the rare retards who unironically fell for the walking simulator meme.
>>713795201>>713795356You guys aren't wrong, I just think it's a bold-faced lie to claim someone who disliked 1 is going to suddenly like 2.
>>713795427Are you retarded? DS2 literally had more developers solely developing vehicle mechanic than that indie game has total devs. What's your argument?
>>713795504Couldn't be me
>>713795627This Die-Hardman is so much fun. Unironically zesting him up a bit was a good choice.
>>713795683I'm all for zesty Die Hardman, maybe people have forgotten the "beepdyboop Sam, Die Hardman here" version?
mf would constantly codec call me to explain things I'd listened to a minute earlier
>>713764215 (OP)>guy makes a good game for ps1>people suck him off for 30 yearssneak and shoot is a done genre, boring.
>>713795538I agree that anon is absolutely just a shitposter. 2 is literally just 1 but with more polish.
>>713795538You don't understand humans then. People who disliked DS1 will end up liking DS2, because the general discourse around DS1 has changed from "lmao gay walking simulator" to reverence, and people like to fit in. Now with the sequel, people already know that DS1 is now seen in a more positive light, so naturally to avoid friction with the rest of the group, they'll decide that, actually it's good.
The reviews literally support this, look up the original review scores for DS1, (not DC) and then compare them to DS2. The game has not even 1/5th the amount of mixed reviews despite being "the same"
>>713795683I kinda like this Higgs too.
>>713795854You're a pretentious faggot

>>713795854>people who hated DS1 for being a delivery sim will heckin' love DS2 cause you use vehicles slightly more when you still deliver your packagesNigger shut the absolute fuck up Jesus Christ this is a stupid ass post.
>>713765505>Straight dopamine brother.I thought that is bad
so are you still in here pretending death stranding is any good
>>713796640I'm too lazy to hook my ps4 up and share my stats from DS1. I LoL'd every side delivery (500) and had a solid network of ziplines covering the majority of the map. Needless to say, I had everything in that game done. Spent over 200 hours in it.
Never tweeted at Kojima for gratification. I just loved doing it.
>game that lets you skip the gameplay
>"omg this is the best game ever"
Shut the fuck up
>>713797039>skips the gameplay>the gameplaylol
lmao even
>>713797039kojima cultists are beyond salvation
>>713795353>ThisI have been saying this since the first trailer had no new gameplay additions.
We had "levolution" kind of events during missions already in DS1.
Tornados/Storms, endless Timefall and whatnot.
The worst part for me is that this games only "additions" are shit copied from MGSV, which copied it from Peace walker, which copied it from...
So we have another MGS, with a hint of DS1.
Infact, some people will like it because its less DS than it is MGS.
>the twist is literally just patriots and liquid ocelot again
Kojima has lost it, he literally can't write anymore. Imagine burning bridges with Konami just so he could get away metal gear only to go back to it because you can't come up with anything new. Kojima is a parody of himself.
>>713797674cope you fkn kojimbo drone
>>713795353Should have added, that the only thing making DS1 unique is the ballance mechanic.
Yet they didnt even develop it any further by letting sam lean and ballancing him via tilting the controller.
Being in combat and leaning around a corner by tilting the controller would be something atleast...
i saw a review that said if you hated the first game you wont like this either, i literally could not get past a few hours of the first game without being bored to death, tried to pick it back up multiple times but its trash of the highest order, it aint the mgvi i was expecting, and with this sequel everyones saying its more action oriented and whatever, i dont buy it
>>713795559the point is that it is not a "driving" game. you can drive, but that is not the focus and not what the game was designed around. number of developers doesn't matter, what matters is what the overall focus of the project is.
Anyone got some of the maps for the new areas? I'm gonna get the game eventually but man I got shit to do these days. I wish I was unemployed or something so I could just no life it for like a week or something.
It's anti-redd*t ludokino. Unironically GOTY
What the fuck is with the absolute gaslighting going on in this thread that DS2 is for people who hated 1? What the fuck schizophrenia a I reading right now?
>>713798318You mean like what the world map is?
>>713797919>via tilting the controller.No thank you. What was needed is more varied terrain and obstacles which the sequel managed to ger right
>>713798471Every time a Kojima game releases the skitzos work hard on a new narrative to divide the fans and turn them against each other.
Where was that scene of tentacles coming out of Higgs movie from the trailer in the game? I don't think I ever saw it
>>713798641>terrain and obstaclesholding forward in a desert...
Fuck off shill.
If they wanted DS2 to be great, they would have created a city instead of a fkn country again.
Gone with the blastwave and Fallout would be great inspirations for the kind of settings of DS.
Just make a small region with highly intricate area design.
>>713786068I can open tiktok to see this anytime.
>>713778060I unironically donโt know who DSP is. The name sounds familiar and I would probably recognize his face but I canโt ever remember whoโs who among the sloptubers
>>713782901You control the buttons you press
>>713798859The desert is a good setting, yes but there is way more than that
>they would have created a cityDefeats the point of the game. You are travelling to remote places not dense urban areas.
>>713798859So you didn't like DS1 and you don't like that DS2 is like 1. Ok so we have proof that DS2 is for people who liked 1. Great. Now fuck off kike.
>>713764215 (OP)mgsv is good
death stranding is slop
>>713786693WITHIN CELLS INTERLINKED
>>713799075Nice cope
Loved the DS part, hated the Kojima MGS part.
>>713799068It makes more sense of an Urban area like Moscow in the Metro books to have Porters, than a desert/mountain region, where you can drive through with fkn trucks.
In fact, 2034 has a great railcar level that could have inspired Death Stranding with powerful vehicles that only have limited use.
>>713794104This but with Mikochi
>this game has a pokemon mechanic
what the fuck
>>713798859>Gone with the blastwaveDo I see an oldfag? Lmao
GWTB was great back in the day, but my God the author is a lazy fuck
>>713794732Thatโs fine, I loved DS1 and wanted DS2 to be exactly that
>>713795761I liked that Die-Hardman. He sounded like a therapist. Unironically one of my favorite vidya niggers

>>713799436Sadly true, but his comics still give me the same vibes as Blam! and Naissancee.
A sort of infinite place that cant really exist.
Thats why his April fools was great, when they leave the citie.
Please make a ghost in a shell game next kojima or something similar
>>713799436>>713799835Ffkn Kojimbo could have made DS in Blame! style megastructure.
The unholy amount of Kino we missed out on...
When will snoy realizd that no one's gonna buy PS5 solely for their timed-exclusive anymore?
>>713800492I bought a PS5 Pro just for DS2. It was either this or a new GPU for my PC. Guess PS5 Pro will be my main game machine from now on.
>>713800492Launched aligned the sales of PS4 vs PS5 are pretty close, but likely the PS5 drops off earlier.

I don't even know if this shit is bugged or intentional.
>hideo kojima brought back solid snake only to have him cuck sam
>but wait! its not actually him cucking sam but sam cucking him!
>get it?! sam is the new snake and he's cucking the old one! le fuck konami XDD
what a pretentious fuck
>>713776568game is made cause of sony
all you gotta do is wait a year
still a pissy bitch about it
god you ungreatful cunts are the most annoying
>>713804270That not solid snake that Neil vana.
I dont know why kojima added that storyline doe, nobody and I mean nobody cares about sam wife kek
>>713781869no it doesn't, how do I make square punch and interact at the same time? how do I make circle crouch and r1 hold breath? the issue is multiple actions are mapped to a single button and there is no way to split or combine those actions in assessablities.
>>713764215 (OP)Its full of DEI woke female bullshit. Sam is a bumbling idiot, a literal gofer while all the women he interacts with are literal Gods compared to him. Emotionally and even physically. Elle is has giga dooms and can 1 v the whole world if she wishes. Its gay ass Kojima humiliation ritual faggotry so he can get into hollywood.
>>713793692No. They want MGS but this is the only turd available from Kojima so they're settling for this instead
>online is integral part of the experience
>also makes the game totaly trivial
haha
>>713764764I lived long enough to see kojima become cringe

>hate maxing out lone commander
>cool silenced sniper rifle
>25 hours later loop all the fucking way back behind him trying to fix up stuff in the non-linked up areas
Damn its crazy how much doing stuff like setting up roads/monorails helps later on. I was wondering why behind his house, that is heavily trafficked, there are auto pavers with 5k+ requirements
So does Elle have a fat ass in the game too?
This looks like a gay ass walking simulator
>>713778648For me it's dunkey's!
>>713793387That's pretty good, dude can still choreograph.
He took the netflix pill normalfaggot pill with the first game and i blame fatamericans for this.
>>713794027>People who enjoyed DS1 for its gameplay will be disappointedSo literally no one
So far I'm a bit disappointed with the plot. Kojima does some retarded things like a big exposition about Rainy's past over the comm when it would make more sense for Fragile to explain this all inside the Magellan or the fact that Rainy's episode had fuck all to do with Rainy. Just did the first combat veteran fight and besides being way way easier than WW1 on Very Hard the way you are brought to the battlefield was shittier than the hurricane in DS1 and I can't see this dude measuring up to Mads at all and there is no family connection here so what is the point.
>>713814075also fuck Fragile's gay ass lesbian hair. Lea can look perfectly good with shoulder length hair minimum but she looks like garbage piss shit with the hair she has in game.
>celebrity nonsense
>muh hair
>>713814464piss off deltranny, shouldn't you be dilating?
>>713814518Video Games will never be a part of the failed industry that is hollywood and shartflix
>>713764215 (OP)Is that an Alan Wake doll?
>>713795139Climbing Anchors stretch longer distances, and they don't weigh as much as ladders.
>>713814075keep playing, neil is cool
>play the game
>be good mailman
>"Make sure to build a watchtower before you go in and attack the bandit camp"
Man what the fuck this isn't what mailmen do
this is what RTS hero units do
I can't complain, I've been looking for games where you can build infrastructure. If only there was a game where it's still open world but there's more to civilization than just empty bunkers, my dick would be diamonds if, say, I'm in a warzone and what I'm doing is basically 50/50 Just Cause and reverse Just Cause where I rebuild and capture shit after I'm done destroying shit
>>713815738What you are looking for is Foxhole. Infrastructure in a PVP game, not seen since Planetside 1
I was going to kill myself but then I heard DS2 was coming out. Kojima LITERALLY saved my life, bros. How can one man be so based?
>>713815738Foxhole or Arma would fit that. You seem like the type to enjoy logistics work.
>>713815738what the fuck is this post, are you a bot? A fucking retard?
Bros i was playing mailman i got to ride a car, that's not what mailman do xD! this is what hekkin action heroes do :O
I can't complain thoughbeit this is poogers
>>713816287Well damn, looks interesting anon. Certainly tickles my 'tism. Thanks for the recommendation. Very Positive reviews is a plus too
Just boughted the first game. Any tips?
>>713816832DARK
>>713816726Would a bot ever tell you to kill yourself? Because it should and you should neck yourself in front of your mother.
>ds2 coming to pc in 2027
>buy it on sale for $60 in 2028
>>713766898Kojima's entire career is huffing his own farts for stealing ideas from other people.
>>713775740>I'm watchingis this what pcfags do all day? lol
>>713817375>the PC Must Wait race
i never stop for a BT. i just run trough them, sorry i'm not into larping
>>713817943>>713817375That's ok, the "game" is turbo dogshit anyways
I wish I could just click on a pathway of ziplines, and the game does the route for me. I hate having to hit X every 10 seconds.
>>713817996>I didn't want those grapes anyways
>>713818090why are you even building a route? just click on exit
