Play Death Stranding 2

>>714371215 (OP)
>enemies just stand around doing nothing
Figures

No thanks, take your Japanese Toddjima Starslop elsewhere. I'd rather play Quasimorph for another 900 hours.

>>714371215 (OP)

>>714371262
Sam is too fast for them.

How do you respond without sounding mad?

>>714371215 (OP)
I just got the pizza moves, still really fucking hate that circle is attack. I constantly switch square and circle in accessibilities every time I'm about to go into a fight.

>>714371215 (OP)
/v/ can't decide if they want to hate this game because it's muh moviegame or because it's too video gamey and not realistic and serious enough

I wish the terrain was tougher, where are my hecking crevasses

>>714371745
Idk why they changed some controls honestly
>>714371215 (OP)
how the fuck do you do this? rubber pizza?

>>714371215 (OP)
that flying drill punch was fucking cringe as fuck

>>714371262
Figures what you little cunt? Figures that you're a whiny little bitch and don't know shit? Yeah, figures pretty hard.
Now shut the fuck up, men are talking.

I will when La Creatividad puts it on PC in x amounts of years due to Sony, thanks for beta testing the game until then.

just about to start the first one. i remember playing the first one when it came out and was bored.

Im older now so maybe i enjoy it this time? its got mads in it so it might actually be good.

>>714373896
im pretty sure the first one came to pc in like 8 months after release on ps4

>Off roader not able to drive up steep snowy mountains
I will NOT walk

absolutely insane how much soul this game has

>>714372670
What is this exoskeleton? Battle?
I expected Bokka to let me move through tar during BT fights quicker but no luck
>>714374116
you get an upgrade for tires around chapter 8

>>714371745
I keep forgetting pick up chiral crystals is triangle now instead of square and I keep jumping out of my truck lol

>>714374116
Even worse when you've already climbed so far then fucking BT's spawn in and you go flying back down the mountain

Throw dollman at the ground and into rivers at every opportunity

>>714371931
press x to awesome is what movie games do

>Really Higgs? Are you going to say that in front of Usada Pekora?

>>714371215 (OP)
KINOOOOOOOO

>>714373896
Never ever. Sony's not going to make that mistake again. DS2 will be the PS5's Bloodborne.

>>714371215 (OP)
I refuse to play a game with hollywood actors' faces
This fucking faggot wants to turn video games into some hollywood crap

>okay that's cool but why is the gameplay not like this tho?????
>turns out it is
lmao

>>714375672
Filtered

>>714374407
which map point is this?

>>714375672
What about Bollywood actors' faces?

>>714371215 (OP)
>>714375771
I've done his trophy and questline, but how do I do those moves?

every single webm I have seen of this game has been some completely different whacko fucked up random thing all happening in the same engine with the same aesthetics, otherwise I wouldn't even belive its the same game at all

also about half the webms I have seen of this game I would assume are some bizarre AI slop if I didn't know it was kojima behind it

>>714375867

>>714375924
Hold O while holding R2/L2 or both

>>714371215 (OP)
This feels like the old Yakuza game

and you know how sometimes you can sort of piece together what a game is about if you look at enough threads and screenshots/videos of it?

no, not this game

I have no idea what it could possibly be about, or even what type of game its supposed to be

>>714371215 (OP)

>>714376189
This. Yakuza's now turn based trash so based Hideo Kojima is taking up the mantle. Just need climax moves.

>>714376201
A strand type game

>>714376419
>y'all

>>714376201
You're doing parcel deliveries between some bunkers in Australia. That's all there actually is.

>>714371931
I hate it because its way too over the top but pretends to be some deep esoteric and philosophical work of art despite having some god awful cinematography and juvenile script writing like some high school student would write for a play at school. I used to defend Kojima but i think Konami were right. Kojima should be heavily regulated and restricted.

>>714376419
I love all the 4th wall breaks in the game

Kept you waiting, huh?

>>714376179
can I do it anytime in game and I just didn't realize or are there some requirements

>>714376525

>>714376580
as long as you got the scrolls Pizza man gives you for each of the moves you can do it anytime

>>714376631
Jesus Christ, what a hack.

>>714376973
WHAT A THRILL

>>714376573

>>714376672
Is this a hidden cutscene? The fuck lol

>>714377369
No, it's part of the main story.

>>714371215 (OP)
Looks gay as fuck.
what dogshit costume design and bland environments.

>>714377392
How do I not remember this

>>714377552
Deserts are often bland. The beige and brown era is back!

>>714377302
Diehardman is the goat of both games desu

CLOSE YOUR TIRED EYES

>>714377771
His constant tutorial nagging any time you tried to do anything throughout DS1 was annoying, but he redeemed himself by the end.

>>714377302
/v/ is the president

>>714371931
It’s supposed to be both. Kojima wants to present himself as an intellectual but he also wants to have fun and do goofy shit now and then, like the Conan and Pekora cameos. MGSV wasn’t much different. Honestly, this is much better than just having a story that takes itself seriously the entire way through, that shit drags after awhile

>>714377771
>>714377302
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O91YcZWcUVY
Still the most kino moment and I can't believe I finally like Diehardman

>>714377746
His baby for sure has brain damage and he should just get rid of it now.

>>714371215 (OP)
>Press x to start animation and lose control of your character for 3-5 seconds.
No thanks.

>>714371215 (OP)
>It's treason then

>>714375672
Anon, that’s been a thing since like at least CoD Advanced Warfare

>>714371931
it's not video gamey at all.
those animations are sluggish dogshit. it's just more scripted movie slop.

>>714376201
Honestly, Death Stranding is a game you have to play yourself to truly understand it. You won’t be able to fully experience it until you hold the controller yourself (preferably one of those fancy PS5 controllers with that directional rumble thing) and put on your headset

>>714371609
>You will give them an ideal to strive towards. They will race behind you, they will stumble, they will fall. But in time, they will join you in the sun. In time, you will help them accomplish wonders.

>>714377864
For sure, his role in ds2 was fucking peak too
>>714378096
>silly as fuck moment that still makes sense in the story and manages to be kino
How does he do it

>>714378182
>he should just get rid of it now
He does.

>>714376713
oh the scrolls! I only got one, I guess I need to lvl him up more

>>714374902
You cant even grab crystals from a truck

>>714377864
He quickly grew on me. I like his voice and the way he talks down to Sam like he’s his proud father or something. I like when vidya characters care about me. Diehardman is easily one of my favorite niggers in vidya. The only other one I liked was Johnson from Halo but he’s just funny and that’s it, not much more to him

>>714378558
>preferably one of those fancy PS5 controllers with that directional rumble thing
Does that work wirelessly on PC yet? Only thing keeping me from getting one and my DS4 is beginning to drift.

>>714374902
Why the fuck did the controls change so much from DS1. They were perfectly fine and everybody was used to them.

>>714372670
>Attack the giant enemy robot spider's weak points for massive damage.

>>714379296
You can if you have the climbing power gloves equipped

>>714379340
Rumble only works wired and in a few sony approved games but you can use it bluetooth just fine

>>714376029
Huffing paint is a helluva drug, anon.

Wow that looks even more retarded than I could have imagined.

>>714379436
I'm not sure, the controls are terribly overdesigned though, I keep opening up the "change like symbol" menu from spamming likes on structures and picking up empty weapons when I try to aim with the one I just switched to. It's annoying.

>>714379690
My DS4 is fully functional with the official adapter, can even use the speaker and headphone jack. I've gotten used to it and refuse to give up those features.
I don't get why Sony won't make an adapter for the Dualsense, or better, release a firmware update for the previous adapter. Seems so backwards with how much they support PC now.

>>714379830
Looks kino.

>>714371215 (OP)
that move at 0:16 was in Operation Scorpio, a kino among the kino

>>714371215 (OP)
i S-ranked the "defeat 30 enemies bare handed" VR mission on Brutal. unfortunately that mission really showed how fucking ass the combat is in a serious brawl.

>>714374407
l....la creatividad...

>>714371215 (OP)
This looks terrible

>>714373605
it makes zero sense and having circle as attack with no way in-game to edit the pre set controls is seriously retarded, I want an update with classic controls so bad

>>714371262
Kojima likes movies, so he makes his games just like movies.

>>714381368
damn the facial expressions look much better than the first game

>>714371215 (OP)
nah yeh

>>714381368
Imagine what those hands could do....

>>714380825
You look terrible

>>714381590
Yeah, I thought DS1 had really good models and facial expressions, but DS2 just completely blows it out of the water and now they look really dated.
DS2 is the first time this generation that I've felt a game really looked "next gen".

Remember to say thanks to Nintendo for making this game. Thanks Nintendo!

>>714376672
It's almost as if Kojimbo is struggling with repressed homosexuality or something.

>>714371215 (OP)
is that Tekken moveset?

>>714382317
Dynamo Pictures which was used for DS1 and they'd already started DS2 before Nintendo even bought the company and renamed it. Retard

>>714382001
game looks insane
reminder that Kojima literally apologized for this not being good enough

>>714382317
Switch 2 release when?

>>714381368
looks like my mom

>>714371215 (OP)
How did sam learn to do a psycho crusher? Do chiral crystals let you do this.

>>714371215 (OP)
I can imagine the kojimbodrone smirking to himself, believing he just btfo all walking simulator accusations.
But in reality, this gameplay is actually press X to awesome. The enemies are just waiting for you to finish the move. Sitting ducks really.

>>714382001
I hope that my pc will be able to handle it when it'll come on steam...

>>714383138
Same. I'm guessing 3080 will be the bare minimum though.

>>714383109
And? You think you're cooler because you press more buttons in your favourite games?

how do i kill the first boss
it has this animation where it "plops" down like it's dead then i blood grenade it and it gets back up
tried with like 25x of those yestarday and couldn't get a kill, is there some sort of button I'm supposed to press??

How exactly do I build roads? there's a road going north east from west fort knot. I go as far as the road goes, but I don't see any terminal that allows me to advance it.

>>714371215 (OP)
What's the story with this one? The first one was your dead sister being a god of the apocalypse who's soul was sitting on a beach with dead whales or something, also you play as a grown up test tube baby in a world where deadpeople are nukes(???)

COME HERE YOU LITTLE SHIT

snoyjeet marketer thread

>>714383328
Yes

>>714383536
Ok I just found the terminal a bit further back, but it says it can't be upgraded further. So it just stops?

>>714383381
Just keep shooting the glowing weak point anon. Its not that hard

Blood grenades when downed are good but you can only pop off 2 or 3

>>714371215 (OP)
mgsv is kojimas last good game

>>714371215 (OP)
Kojima does it again!

ITT: riveting gameplay

Cannot fucking wait to get my hands on the artbook

>>714383713
The terminals are halfway between each road segment, but to be honest most days i've played they've all been repaired by someone else already but i managed to build a few the other day and i'm sitting on mountaina of likes

>>714382317
>he doesn't know

I think I lucked out with my autism roll on the first game. Everyone loves one part but hates everything else. To me, everything about the first game is charming.
>love walking because it’s the comfiest shit ever
>love hiking because it feels like an actual adventure
>love driving because I’m an autist obsessed with trucking
>love building roads because I like seeing the logistics aspect of it
>love BT encounters because I like being put on edge now and then
>love MULEs because you can get creative with how you deal with them just like enemies in MGSV
The only thing I avoid is ziplines. I think I’ve only put down like four zip line networks and I always feel like a bum for using them. I don’t get how people can put down a zip line network spanning across the entire map

is there a kino reference to pic related?

>>714383590
Literally MGSV. Wasn't there a mission in this exact spot where you had to rescue some animal?

>>714384595
>I don’t get how people can put down a zip line network spanning across the entire map
You absolutely have to if you want to get all the LLL ranks in premium deliveries. You're not getting deliveries across the map in under 5 minutes without them.

>>714371215 (OP)
how did they mocap this?

>>714385123
Asian people can do this no problem

>>714383573
The BB you adopt gets left in a different world and gets raised by dead people and since time flows differently there she comes back as a 20-somethingish year old and has some weird powers and turns out to be the next extinction entity. Higgs tries to use her to bring about the last stranding again as revenge against Sam and Bridget but gets BTFO'd. Sam's wife had a fling with a smuggler(Neil) who snuck braindead pregnant women into America from Mexico to be experimented on and now bridges wants her and Sam's baby for the experiments since he's a repatriate and when bridges catches on that he's told her about the smuggling(she was Neil's therapist) they almost kill Sam's wife, Neil makes a deal with some bridges fucker to save her, they kill Neil, but the baby gets reassigned a different serial number to escape experimentation. Neil takes out his frustration on Sam for getting cucked but is revealed to have been protecting Sam's baby in the other world the whole time at the end of the game. Fragile was revealed to have been dead since she teleported the baby to the other world but her body dragged on until the end of the game, she also gave the baby to the people in the other world who raised her. Some other weird shit happens

>>714383381
Just shoot him?
The glowing parts are weak points

>>714371931
I wouldn't play it because it's a movie game, but I can appreciate a movie game that doesn't take itself too seriously. Kojimbo may be a bit of a pseud but he does have talent when it comes to cinematography and the like and has shown that he has competency in making real games like the Zone of the Enders and early MG titles (all the way until MGS3), so he isn't a Cuckman tier hack that doesn't like games.

>>714383829
This is very MSGV

>>714376525
>I hate it because its way too over the top but pretends to be some deep esoteric and philosophical work of art
How can someone play more than one (1) Kojima game and still think this is beyond me

>>714385489
Thank you for typing this all out. Honestly, you could of made the whole thing up but it sounds right.

>>714385656
This. DS1 was SHIT, but DS2 looks cool. I like the renewed focus on combat and simplifying/speeding up of all the delivery garbage. Will pick it up when it comes to PC because no PS5.

Yep it's gaming time

>>714373971
it's much better than the first one gameplay-wise, but it's a real sequel and not a "don't worry, we'll handhold you through the story, you can skip the first one" type of game

Kojima before:
>Serious dramas about war
Kojima now:
>DOOOD LE PRETTY GIRLS ARE DANCING AM I RIGHT???

>>714385849

that's cool as fuck

>>714385909
Monster Energy is gone in DS2. Very sad to see it go.

>>714374407
It actually shows you Kojima if you look at it? I thought someone just shopped him in lmao

>>714385982
I also hate joy and whimsy

https://x.com/SunhiLegend/status/1940436187476582667

So this is death stranding 2 gameplay...

>>714386016
Supposably yor rite.

>>714386313
It was already removed in the PC/PS5 version of 1.

>>714385982
>serious drama about war
>MCs name is a dick joke
>also has pretty girls dancing, panty shots, bikini models for the character viewer

Oh and lets not forget identifying meryl by staring at her ass in MGS1, the most seriously toned game of the series

>>714385656
no
>>714385857
>DS1 was SHIT, but DS2 looks cool.
lol

>>714376285
Kojima in 2008
>Serious fistfight between brothers
Kojima in 2025
>GUITARS!!! AM I RIGHT GUYS??? THEY ARE SO COOL, RIGHT???

I hope the PC release is this year, I have manual saves before each Neil fight and some other parts to replay later when the conversation ramps up again

>>714386440
PEKO

>>714386568
yes

>>714371721
Cool but why does this look like an early access crafting survival asset flip?

>>714386605
He already rehashed the MGS4 fist fight in DS1. He needed something different.

>>714386775
Because real life looks like an early access crafting survival asset flip.

>>714386605
Are you just making shit up to be mad about?

>>714371215 (OP)
The only thing this walking sim did was make me wish Star Citizen wasn’t a giant fucking scam. Being an Amazon delivery boy would be so much more fun there.

>>714376631
Imagine if Snake killed The Boss and she said "It's like you're Bugs Bunny and I'm Daffy Duck".
Thank God there was someone slapping Kojumbo on the noggin when he got too autistic back then.

>>714386778
It's basically backwards. DS1 was the MGS4 fight and DS2 is the MGS1 fight (which is surprisingly memoryholed and never brought up by MGS fans)

>>714371215 (OP)
wow, amazing

Is the Tsuchinoko in the game?

>>714387139
Honestly if MGS3 remake was just unhinged Kojima with all the cut ideas like a bossfght that lasts a week I would buy it in a heartbeat

>>714387139
wdym? I love his unbridled autism

>>714375281
yeah but this is actually awesome

>>714387527
No, its a movie waiting for you to press play.

he's unstoppable!

>>714388261

>>714379992
I hope you didn't overpay there. Any regular USB stick for Bluetooth under 10 bucks does the same job (and more).

>>714388628
It was $20 when I bought it, Sony was selling them as a promotion for their game streaming service.
Normal Bluetooth adapters have more latency (the Sony adapter is 2.4GHz) and don't support audio.
Now they go for insane prices because they're discontinued, but for $20, it was definitely worth it over a $10 Bluetooth adapter.

oh wowzers, is that SCUD from BLADE?!

>>714388865
That looks cool

Don't be so serious anon

>kept you waiting huh
>it ain't over yet

>>714384684
DS2 takes a lot from MGSV to a point of almost being a spiritual successor

The snowy mountain area is incredible in this game. Naturally I ditched the vehicles for my first trek to each new prepper, had an intense blizzard throughout most of my trek to that first snowy mountain prepper. As I was keep on keeping on through the final 500 metres and the prepper was in sight the blizzard started to clear and night time descended. The colors of the night sky and the look of the snow, the sense of scale when you angled to camera to look down, Sam barely able to keep on going as his stamina was almost gone, ready to collapse at the front door of the prepper, absolute pure kino.

>>714371609
looks better than Gunn's Superman

MGS4bros, we are SO back. Return of the golden era!

I love this game so much. I can't stop playing it.

I'm a completionwhore so I was doing standard orders way too long and eventually just said fuck it and now I'm speeding through the main story and saving the 5 staring for later, the game is so fucking long holy shit

>>714392183
Return of the piss era.

Do you get more likes/experience from delivering cargo on foot as opposed to vehicles (tricruiser/off-roader/monorail)? I know you get a different grade from delivering via the magellan but I'm talking about the other vehicles

I just can't do this shit no more.

I was enjoying the game a lot but something clicked harder when I had to delivery 200lbs of bullshit from the Animal Shelter to the West Observatory out of the network. In the way was a camp so I had got out my truck and checked out the area. Rappelled down cliffs, placing ladders up to a vantage point and did recon, then waited until night to take out the guards only in the way. That last climb up the anchor at night in the rain, I thought I was Snake in the opening of Ground Zeroes. After doing all that I got to the objective unloading everything into the carrier with the in-game hands.

Honestly the only thing holding this game back from being a masterpiece is really just that its too goddamn easy, the first game had the same problem and its not better here. I get that they're worried about making an AAA game too "annoying" but the game really shines the rare few times it actually puts the screws on you. My private lockers are absolutely packed with shit because I barely need to use all the resources and game mechanics the game provides you

>>714377369
yes, you have to sleep next to a coffin
>>714383138
>>714383318
If they don't force gaytracing on PC the specs will be reasonable

>>714395369
>I want an entire movie directed by Kojima
Pretty sure it's all thanks to the action director, yuji shimomura (the DMC and Bayo cutscenes guy)

>>714395759
Doesn't help that Kojima is contracted with sony and they're too bitchmade to have games on their console that are challenging to players since they want to appeal to such a wide range of people

>>714395759
shame, I played the first game on hard and I really disliked how easy it was. I'm not a hardcore gamer or anything but when the challenge is too braindead some of the mechanics don't get to shine and the game as a whole can get boring

>>714396230
>you have to sleep next to a coffin
Is that the coffin from the mission where you go to pick it up?

>>714400210
Is this to make sure people don't accidentally use lethal bullets? In DS1 you just switched the ammo to actual bullets and then killed people, but it lowers your reputation and you have to deal with the bodies so almost nobody did. There's basically no difference between knocking out and killing because even killing them, they still come back later.

>>714400502

Not if you leave one survivor, making dealing with camps much easier.

>>714391657
Good morning, sir!

>>714400502
It's a minor story detail that instead of there being separate lethal and non-lethal guns/ammo like before, there's just Multipurpose guns that automatically change ammo type based on your target. Kinda similar in function to the gun IDs and lockouts in MGS4.
Eventually the bandits start firing lethal ammo and your crew is like "how did they bypass the lockouts??" and after linking up one guy he sends you an email with a secret code he says to try using, which activates lethal fire mode, and there are some other details that indicate he's the one that's been distributing weapons to the local bandits, but dealing with this issue is an optional side mission.

That's retarded.

>>714401257
Yes, I can make that assumption because you got extremely butthurt about remarking how Kojima's "4th wall break" isn't clever and it's just mimicking Deadpool.
You are getting upset because not everyone likes your uninspired Hollywood lol so randumb experience.

>>714401498
>fourth wall breaks are le mimicking le deadpool!!!!
Fuck off you brainrotted spastic

Horizontal Kenshi.

>>714401626
Yes, because 4th wall break as a narrative medium doesn't consist of just telling the audience >look, I'm literally looking towards you and nodding, yes we're totally self aware!
It's low grasping fruit to make the audience feel in the know without making any effort.

>>714402009
Yeah, the obviousness is pretty jarring. Like in DS1, the only 4th wall break I remember was Higgs commenting on the player getting tired of the grind and wanting a boss battle/game over, but he didn't wink at the camera as he said it. And it could easily be construed as him just being weird (he uses game lingo a lot) and still talking to Sam.

The cutscenes and dialogue are much better in this game than DS1 imo, it still has that Kojimaism where people talk like autistic robots but its more charming than annoying in this game, and they don't repeat themselves as much because of the corpus. I like Sam more too, he feels more like a lovable stoic weirdo in this game, while in the first one he barely felt like a character. Game just feels a bit more playful and lighthearted overall

There really isn't as much challenge as there was in the first game. I took so many hits from giant ghost mechs that I expected to completely BTFO me but I got back up with a quarter of my health bar gone. The terrorists in 1 did more damage to me and actually made me retreat a good few times.

Didn't this setting have some weird gimmick about a spontaneous death magic nuke blowing up if people touch each other?

>>714410680
Coming into contact with a dead person blows the dead person up like a nuke. Alive people can still interact and touch, but that's the reason so many choose to live in isolated bunkers.

Death Stranding 2 has actual combat this time? Is it any good? MGSV for all its faults and shortcomings, had GOD tier gameplay. Does it scratch a similar itch?

>>714410907
Amelie hate

>>714371215 (OP)
bollywood tier "gameplay"

I think I might be around halfway through the game, maybe a little less. 40 hours in.
First couple of chapters I was feeling like Death Stranding 1 was a little bit better, but now it's turning and I'm starting to feel like 2 might end up being better if it keeps on improving.

>>714412060
TOTAL AMELIE DESTRUCTION

I dropped 1 after shortly getting to the snowy area. Just got burnt out from it's slow pacing. Not a bad game just didn't get it's hooks in me. Should I finish 1 before 2? Would 2 engage me more than 1?

>>714371215 (OP)
I will!

...When it comes to Steam...

>>714411863
1 had actual combat too.
2's is a bit improved, but not like a huge amount.
The stealth and shooting mechanics are still nowhere near MGSV's imo, but they are slightly improved over the first games.
Melee combat is the most fun imo.
It does scratch kind of a similar itch to MGSV, but just don't expect the stealth and shooting mechanics to be on the same level.
There's a ton of gadgets and tools that are fun to use so infiltrating and taking out bases can still be fun and creative.

>>714412738
The secret to snow areas is to set up a zipline net.

jej

>>714412738
>Should I finish 1 before 2?
Yes, but I'm only saying this because I like the first game a lot.
>Would 2 engage me more than 1?
In my personal opinion I don't think there would be much of a difference for you.
2 does start much faster and gets you into the core of the gameplay quicker than the 1st game, but on the whole the game is still very very similar to 1 and the pacing is also quite similar to 1. I think 2 might have more important story moments spread out a bit more evenly throughout the game than 1, but the pacing is basically the same aside from the quick intro.

I’ve seen indie titles with zero budget put together more coherent combat mechanics. It was honestly insulting to sit through.

So you'd hope, pray, that the developers pulled themselves together for the sequel. Did they learn? Did they fix that mess?

You are a tranny because your woman mentality is making you incessantly bitch about a game you don't play, for subjective reasons you never elaborate on in the first place.

>>714371215 (OP)
It's insane how good this game is. Like when I played the first it was interesting but tedious and I told myself I probably wouldn't play a sequel. I bought it anyway and they took everything that made the game shit in the first one, removed it, dialed up the action and it's so much fun. I can't remember the last time I had this much fun playing a single player game

>>714418954
Maybe that's for a best, the anime he's had his name attached to recently have not been very good, in my opinion. Maybe Kojima will get him involved in game development.

>>714381585
bazz edit when

>>714419115
That is like saying MGSV is about crawling

You can tell Kojima played Red Dead Redemption and was obsessed with the part where you go to Mexico taking a long walk and it pans out and plays music since he over uses that shit

What does likes do? I am still confused about that? I can get buffs that give more likes faster or some shit but don't understand why you need them? When I connect with another player what does that do?

Mfw I found out the Night Monorail was a real thing in the lore and I figured it was just a bad glitch

i liked death stranding 1 but it felt like jankslop most of the time with people cobbling together pieces of different games. i hated the stealth thing and the whole bb system having to avoid those stupid ghosts. if any of that is in the new game i can't play it

>>714419115
This is because you misunderstood the premise of the game.
It's not about hiking. Hiking is something that you can do if you want to, but the game is at its most fundamental level about moving from point A to point B contextualized through the action of delivering cargo.
Then the game gives you a variety of different options to perform this action.

>>714420993
There is no tranny in this game.
That's the other game he is making, OD
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6q_OsaftT04&t=26s

>>714423163
You still have to avoid ghosts sometimes, but it's FAR less prevalent in this game.
In my 43 hours so far I have barely encountered any outside of a couple, not even a handful, of scripted encounters with them.

>>714423030
Pic?

is it true that getting 5-star ratings from preppers is way more grindy and tedious in this one?

>>714423880
Not at all. Getting 5 star ratings from preppers in 2 is the same as getting them in 1.
Some will be super easy to get, some will take a bit more and then there are some preppers that will want a lot.
Then there are some that will grind to a halt until you do some story order, and then it will level up normally again.
The rate at which you get 5 stars feels identical to 1 in my experience.

>>714423607
>That's the other game he is making, OD
Not anymore. It was cancelled by Microsoft.

>>714424107
It wasn't. That's just a rumor so far with no real merit to it yet.
KojiPro also owns the IP so they can find another publisher to do it if Phil is too retarded.

>>714423880
I reached my first 5 rank just by playing normally and I haven't finished the game yet, I think delivering lost cargo is incredibly important to level quicker, always check shared lockers and pick up lost packages on the way

>>714423743
thanks ill probably give it a shot then

>>714424105
You're not able to check which facilities have specific orders for others in this one so it's a lot more going back and forth between shelters

Because it was unique and surprisingly fun. Not buying a PS5 for one game though, hopefully PC release gets announced soon.

You'd think /v/ would be calling the game based because the Elder was anti-trump in the first game but I guess it's not on PC or shitch deuce so that takes precedent

How do you respond without sounding mad?

>>714425786
I always knew /v/ was actually /resetera/.

>>714421343
>How did that shitstain even get green lit for a sequel
Because Kojima's the boss of the studio and the first game made so much money they could fund 3 whole new games with it and then some.

>>714421343
Because that first game made so much money it paid for itself and fully funded this games development

This is why vehicles handle poorly, the atoms in the wheels move so fast quantum mechanics comes into play and they get entangled with rocks. This is also why mules have such slow reaction times. Sam's connection to the beach means his reaction time is sped up so he can react faster than everyone else. This was revealed to me in a dream.

There’s 2 things Kojima fucked up on in the sequel
>have at least ONE exploitable knot city where you can see how they live
>enemies that dynamically roam the map to keep you on your toes

>>714371262
What the fuck happened to proper enemy design in games

>>714433550
I was interested in him at the start but after the constant yapping and loading screen dialogue when you "talk" to him in Sam's room on the magellan I gave up on him completely. He's my least favourite character in the whole franchise now.

>>714433747
The corpus does at least give a reason you never go in a knot city. Partly it's to minimize chiral contamination, and partly most residents are kept in the dark about how things are outside to keep them from trying to leave or travel to minimize voidouts and unrest

>>714433747
>>have at least ONE exploitable knot city where you can see how they live
I wanted this so bad too. Even if it's just in a cutscenes I would've been happy.
>>enemies that dynamically roam the map to keep you on your toes
This is the nr1 thing I wanted. Having fixed BT and mule areas mixed with a couple that move would've made the gameplay loop so much better.
Another thing I really was expecting that baby Lou actually stayed with you for majority of the game and not 10mins.

All Kojima had to do was not kill Fragile and let her and Sam become a very cute family with their daughter Lou in the end.

>>714434041
Baby Lou wouldn't survive the first time I eat shit off a cliff.

News to me. All I remember was /v/ saying how much it sucked and how badly it flopped.

>>714435065
> /v/ saying
There's your problem

jesus that is some assassin's creed tier garbage

>>714432879
If you're looking for a "small, mostly exclusive group" experience, you should try tranny marxism.

>>714435065
Basically, anything /v/ says the exact opposite is true. No exceptions. That's why I am avoiding E33.

>>714376672
Is this the same guy with the cool golden skull mask or someone else because he looks so gross with the Amelie hair and necklace. I'm sure it's intentionally perverse.

>>714436970
It's the same guy but there's a reason he looks that way

He got left on a beach for like 10,000 years just doing nothing but wandering and he went batshit

I just can't see the appeal. I've watched a lot of videos on the first and 2nd now. Looks like 90% of the time you're just delivering packages with some "haha so weird le so random xD" cutscenes in between. Ballerina nigger really exposed some of you fucks for being the most normie consoomers there are.

>>714388865
the amount of cool collab cosmetic shit is gonna expand thats going to be in the game by the time the directors cut comes out on PC is gonna be great

>>714431697
potential explanation is that timefall fucked everything up

that's why npcs are surprised when sam makes a "huge" journey for them when for sam and the player it was a afew hundred meters

>>714437921
>potential explanation is that timefall fucked everything up
there's a giant himalayan tier mountain range in the middle of australia and the east coast of the US got transmogrified into Iceland, ofc timefall is fucking shit up

>>714437715
The story and cutscenes are weird and random, but that's just typical Kojima. The delivery gameplay is better to actually play than it looks can be stressful, cathartic, or relaxing.
Looking forward to 2's PC release.

>>714371215 (OP)
test

Any niggas further in the story, do we get rest room drinks that arent Drawbridge(tm) brand green tea? I unironically miss the Monster and Timefall Beer from 1...

>>714438186
yes but in many ways

perhaps I should've worded my post to say that timefall is in fact the explanation for it but that said I don't think it was ever confirmed in the game

>>714437715

Why get so angry about a game you don't play that by your own account no one is buying?

I wish we could connect Spotify through the chiral network so I could listen to the first soundtrack instead. Low roar fell off and I’m tired of hearing “JIBBER JABBER JIBBER JABBER ABLOOO BLOO”

got all the roads and monorails done now, gonna miss all the 'openness'

Yes. All of these things are simultaneously true. If this were made by a western developer you'd be yelling slop right now.

Why does this fucker always get a pass?

Just buy a ps5 man. They aren’t that expensive. You too can enjoy death stranding 2!

fine, i'm gonna buy a game console after like 10 years of only pc gaming
i can't for the pc port, it's at least a year from now.

>>714439168
You can enjoy gta vi too :^)

>>714439168
>it's at least a year from now
DS1 was only 7 months. DS2 could be even sooner.

>>714439168
nice try sony but I'm not buying your gaystation

>playing Kojima games on pc
I can’t think of anything more soulless

>>714439273
oh yeah i guess but i've never been as excited as everyone else for that game, i don't think it will be better than rdr2
>>714439337
i literally cannot wait anymore, i'm getting a ps5 when i get paid

>thread devolves after a few anons realizing they're the only ones praising the game
Always love to see it.

>>714439495
what's the difference?

>>714439621
I think you have things twisted, anon. /v/ is the only ones shitting on the game. And even then, its just a few pedophiles.

>>714371721
SO HERE I AM

>>714371215 (OP)
I'd love to but I still can't justify buying a PS5 for 3 games

>>714439896
Strangely enough, I haven't even heard it mentioned outside of /v/. Legitimately asking, how were the sales?

>>714440061
>I haven't even heard it mentioned outside of /v/.
Too busy playing it.

>>714440061
Cursory google says 1.4 million physical copies as of the first week

>>714439168
>cant wait 6 months
retard

>>714376419
No More Heroes did this in what.... 2007?

>>714440316
Jfc it really is true. Content doesn't matter, just attach a 2 to the title or give it some retard celebrity name like Kojimbo and it sells.

>>714440586
I bought the game because I enjoyed playing the previous game.

Playing Death Stranding 1. Like it so far, but only a few characters are kind of lacking. Sam is way too chuuni for an old man but he's not the worst, it's people like Mama and Heartman who are forgettable and lame and make me wonder if they're just friends with Kojima who got a nepo role, kind of like the Japanese girl who marries the junk dealer.

>>714398686
Hey bro the hating on everything era is over, it's okay to find silly things funny again.

>entire game is about how evil AIPAC is
What did Kojima mean by this

>>714425879
So what's this guy's story? Is he notSnake?

>>714438716
You have shit taste im afraid

>>714440586
The content is why I bought the game
200 something hours in DS1 btw

>>714371721
COWABUNGA

>>714441495
To each their own I guess. I am trying, I just can't see it. Its always just deliveries and preparing deliveries, then some basic shooting, then some random vtuber or some fat black ballerina dancing on screen. I'm still convinced if this weren't released by kojima it wouldn't be well received at all.

>>714442301
>I'm still convinced if this weren't released by kojima it wouldn't be well received at all.
Almost as if concepts and ideas arent universal objects that would be the same if implemented by people of lesser talents. and something that would be awful shlock in the hands of a Niel Druckmann is ludokino in the hands of a Kojima.

>>714442603
Are you retarded? The point is it could be the same product but slap Niel's faggy name on their instead of Kojimbo's chink name and suddenly you wouldn't like it as much.

>>714441061
When I unlocked the secret Free Palestine shirt I clapped

>>714443435
"exactly the same game, but made by someone else" is a false premise because druckmann would never be able to make the same game, or if in this other universe he was making all of kojima's games instead of his own bad games then his name would obviously not be disliked in the first place
