From the new Hideotube video, Kojima revealed more information about the game
>natural disasters like Earthquakes and Forest Fires will appear in the game, in addition to the Flash Flood already shown in the latest trailer
>The Magellan uses the tar to cross distances, George Miller's character uses his stump to make it descend into the tar
>Fragile doesn't know who made the Magellan
>you can interact with the doll in some way (maybe like BB in 1)
>when you connect to a new area via the Chiral Network the Magellan can travel there as well
>Lou got shot in the first trailer

will there be dynamic day and night cycle?
I don't think he talked about that
>will there be dynamic day and night cycle?
Looks like a sunrise here
That doesn't mean anything unfortunately. The only night time I can remember in the first game is when you arrive at lake knot but you could've guessed the same thing if you saw that
Wait, DS1 didn't have dynamic day and night?
I haven't beaten the game yet to be fair but it's been daylight the entire time I've played it so far. I actually didn't notice until someone pointed it out.
Yeah, same, I've beaten the game a year ago and didn't notice that as well.
what the frick
I guess the timefall tricked me
the sun doesn't move at all
It's usually overcast or raining so you don't really notice the time of day.
>picrel
Isn't that the guy who was supposed to save Argentina?
What is Elle Fanning's character?
I think they said she is the girl from the Chrysalis and the girl floating on the table in the trailer
So she's from the tar/beach somehow
Isn't there literally a scene in the trailer where all sam and the others are messing with the girl from the chrysalis floating in the air and she's eves dropping?
Nah, that's just cut to look like that. Watch it again and you'll notice they're too entirely different scenes, spliced together to make it look like she's eavesdropping on that scene with the floating girl, but if you pay attention to the background where she's listening you see that it's actually a completely different scene.
Pay closer attention, the scene where she's eves dropping is not the same scene.
I honestly thought that might be the case right after I posted that, Kojima has used editing tricks like this before.
Word on the street is that she's Lou's "ka".
Never played the first till I saw this trailer and thought I'd pick it up and give it a go. I really like it. Didn't think I would. Very unique game.
I had the same experience, it's very common. Given what the game is being described as it's no surprise that people are sceptical about it. There is a lot more to it than just walking and even that they somehow managed to make interesting. I wish there were more big budget games that are totally unique.
Incredibly unique. Downloaded it late last year. Been playing ever since.
does it have that much content or do you play 10 minutes a day?
NTA but no reply would do it justice. You should watch a few videos, perhaps try the game if you have it on Epic. I don't think the game is for everyone, it's a bit autistic too. I played recently and I went from feeling the walking to be a slog, to using vehicles, to just walking again and enjoying the scenery, atmosphere, to the point where I was doing some deliveries on foot just to absorb the world around me, or trying to optimize structures locations to "help" other players, exploring places just for the curiosity.
I don't think videos do it justice.
Based fellow porters, enjoy the ride bois
is there a version of this image where BB's face is visible and is also chad?
Compared to everything out there it's actually addictive and challenging. Legitimately having fun with this.
same. I've owned the game for several years and it sat in my backlog after the first time I tried it and fell off before I could reach Port Knot. the game's mechanics finally caught for me and now I can't stop playing it.
I've seen it on YouTube and other places and although I'm a huge Kojima fan I fell for the glorified mailman meme. Learned my lesson four years on and here I am.
You can go anywhere but beware the mechanics mirrors real life. You can fall and slide down steep inclines.
Can you actually go to that mountain? Man, Todd just can't win anymore... it's over.
It's a game that 100% shows that vee doesn't play games, just shits on them with a half baked opinion
I was also guilty of this tbf
Correction: Consolegays don't play games. Ganker shat on Death Stranding until PC port came out.
Nah, lots of people enjoyed it at release.
More like pcgays and tendies shit on games out of jealousy and then fellate the same games once they get them
pcgays are cancer
I'm a fan of Kojima's work if for no other reason than how weird shit can get so I was interested to find out just what the frick DS was gonna be about. I went in with no expectations seeing as how there was still very little in the way of explanation even when they did finally demo gameplay so it was hard to really judge if it was the type of game I would like or not. In the end, I did enjoy it. People crack shit about how it's a walking simulator but they don't actually quite realize that they're correct about that but in vastly different ways than they think they mean. The gameplay is a lot of walking but it actually makes movement part of the mechanics in how you need to pick travel paths based on load and equipment and how you need to move carefully to counteract balance issues that could cause you to stumble and fall. It's kind of fascinating that they actually turned walking into actual gameplay instead of the static movement systems of what Ganker typically considers a "walking sim" like Gone Home or any other game of that kind. My only disappointment is that I don't think they fleshed out the mechanics of how you carry packages and equipment and such enough. Assigning items to different slots is pretty basic and just kinda auto sorts them but I wish they made it a more manual process where you had to actually sort and arrange things yourself and make weight distribution play a bigger role in how easy it was to get around. Strap a heavy item to your left leg and left arm and only light shit on your right side and now you're way off balance. Maybe you have a heavy item on your back but you stacked it near the top because it was most efficient space-wise and now you're top heavy so maybe it's better to stack it on the bottom but the awkward shape means you can stack fewer items on top of it. Things like that would have been really cool instead of the game just kinda taking your overall weight and arranging shit for you.
homie I ain't reading all that shit.
>Strap a heavy item to your left leg and left arm and only light shit on your right side and now you're way off balance.
IIRC that's actually a mechanic in the game. There were a few moments when the auto-rearranging actually wasn't enough and I had to tweak things. I can't remember exactly what was the scenario, but it did happen, although timidly.
>don't actually quite realize that they're correct about that but in vastly different ways than they think they mean
I mean in many cases you can clear 50% of the path on a Trike and just finish the remaining by walking, or just do a wheelie and speed like a rocket through bad terrain. I know I did my fair share of this. Harder to pull-off when BTs are roaming around but still doable.
>Played Death Stranding for the first time last year
>Man what the frick is this bullshit? Kojima has officially lost it, Metal Gear was extravagant but this is next level of anime nonsen-
>This part hits
My 2nd favorite song in game.
Was it ever made clear why the BB pods are dark until they are lit up? I can't tell if it's the glass becoming shaded or the liquid is some kind of tar-like amniotic fluid that clears up with a charge or something.
Idk probably so they can sleep better?
That would make sense but I can't remember if their construction was detailed somewhere in the gorillion emails kojimasan wrote.
>BB pods are dark until they are lit up
Yeah, good question. I always thought it was a feature of the thick glass the BB's are engulfed, some sort of shading that would let them sleep in peace or something.
>Not bad anon. Close to my first playthroughs time. I don't have a pic unfortunately.
I mean I'm not sure there's good or bad here. I certainly took my time until I reached the mountains, didn't like them at all, but it's a game that I'd gladly hit those 100 hours just autistically doing stuff in the world.
Did you play on PC too? Base version or DC?
The mountains were awesome doe
Ps4 at launch DC on pc when it came out
Oh right. It just occurred to me how profitable a limited lock can be to KojiPro. Some people buying the same versions or an update in two different platforms. Don't like that at all, tbh. Not quite costumer-centric
I agree anon but what's a homie gonna do? I wasn't planning on buying it on pc but the consoomer inside me took over.
Don't be so fragile, be _____Fragile_____.
Asylums for the Feeling is one of my favorite moments from any Kojima game. Really a standout for me.
I played DS on release and thought it was pretty good, but nothing too special. However, on my current replay I am loving it a lot, way more than first go around.
>natural disasters like Earthquakes and Forest Fires will appear in the game, in addition to the Flash Flood
>natural disasters like Earthquakes and Forest Fires will appear in the game
Fricking finally. If MULES and terrorists are still a thing with robots they should be able to dynamically hunt you too.
Fricking Hideo give me a real challenge.
How much is Elle gonna be in it?
So Sam & Fragile really got together? Also still feels weird saying George Miller is in this game.
kojima listing all of his inventions
Literal ideas guy if he real.
Lou will be resurrected in some way
He ate BB
He's spending too much time with Americans and has begun picking up their dietary habits.
Kojumbo
Did he mention anything about the maps, how many there are, their sizes, biome variety, etc?
what even is magellan?

interesting this mentions forest fires, I don't think we saw any greenery in that trailer
there is one quick scene with fires
sick, I can't believe we get to go to Caelid in death stranding
What even is this shillthread holy shit
Kojimbo is a moronic Black person and shit stranding is the worst game ever made
(You)
Get out!
qrd on this series? why are there babies in it? whats with the low framerate doll? is kojimbo on drugs
The babies are stillborns that people link up with to tap into the afterlife and detect ghosts
Puppet is a mystery
Kojima probably isn't on drugs, just autistic and given a blank chrck
>is kojimbo on drugs
I've been asking this question since 1998
If he is, I would like to know on what
why can't this b***h walk?
After many accidents and deaths, I guess Porters just figured out that strapping common folk to their backs is better than having them walking around and losing their minds when shit goes down. That's my head-canon, of course. I love Porters. Fricking heroes, all of them.
I'm trying to headcannon but it's very hard to beat the "just reusing the corpse carrying mechanics" allegations
Porters have bodybags. They don't have spare timefall resistant uniforms and boots that fit the bunker inhabitants. Also bunker inhabitants are frail shut-ins and have never had any experience with BT's. They're actually dead weight, and it's better to treat them as such.
kek
NTA but that's a way better explanation than my headcanon
Having said that, the Chiral Artist did go back to her mother's place all by herself
What a crazy b***h
can you imagine you finally get together with your long lost love and he's this whinging limpwristed jerkoff.
did anyone else think she was like special needs when you first saw her dancing with that hourglass?
Yes.
>tfw you will never have a qt asian autist gf
there's like a billion of them anon you just have to be OK with ruthless materialism and shovelface.
Taking her to the rape den
Spending their lives in bunkers makes them terrible at walking through rough terrain, plus it's not too much of a bother for porters thanks to exoskeletons.
Delicate asian woman. It's the white mans burden to carry her.
because it's sam's job to transport her, if she were to walk alone she would also have to potentially face BTs despite not being equipped to detect them or fight them
in the real world, you can technically just drive and deliver something yourself, but instead most people just pay for someone else to do it more efficiently and cheaply
>deliver a asian gf to white nerd who thinks hes a good guy
>over the course of the game he becomes more and more abusive and she begs you to deliver her away from him
>have to deliver abused asian wife to her mother
>asian mother convinces her to work things out with abusive white bf and suffer in silence
>she does and they get remarried
What the FRICK did Kojima mean by this?
They weren't really "abusive", they were fighting and not getting along. It was a pretty realistic depiction the challenges relationships face when their circumstances change, moving in together can cause a lot of dysfunction. After spending some time talking about it with her mom, they ended up reuniting and working things out.
He meant to keep trying, that connection isn't always easy but it matters more than most anything else.
Higgs journals in the interviews, you unlock them after the pizza delivery missions
fuark
Thanks, anon.
Are you gonna travel to Mexico in this game?
You're gonna save Mexico.
I'm sure if Sam simply explained that Higgs fricked over Fragile/Bridges the way that it was explained to him most of the people who are hestitant about rejoining would understand
when she's witnessing kino
why is my boy phil not smiling
Nothing to smile about in his life
That's a shrine. He's basically at a church service.
>Sam can now remove his backpack for lighter movement and combat.
>Realtime terrain deformation is in the game. Roads can be cut off via earthquakes, forest fires, floods, etc.
>"Lots of vehicles"
beautiful. all i need now is that day and night cycle and it'll be perfect
>>"Lots of vehicles"
Oh hell yeah
>Lots of vehicles
That's cool. I hope all the ones from 1 also return. I really like the Roadster, it has a nice tradeoff
That design that put the driver right in front without any sort of windshield or shell felt a bit... stupid. Especially taking into account that you are driving tough terrain.
Vehichle combat, Sam has his hands free for guns probably.
It's nothing solid but here you can see a generic gameplay area with a sunrise which implies a change from day to night
>Sam can now remove his backpack
Aw hell yeah
Here's my best guess
>the stranding works both ways
>the death stranding is actually a periodic event where one ferryman to the afterlife stops, so people get "stranded" on one side of the Nile and can't transit into the afterlife
>the "other side" is a mirror image of this world, hence antimatter and chirality
>the BT's in the first game were the Ka of someone stranded on one side of the river
>in this game, the "courier combat bots" or the dudes that Higgs controls are actually the Ha stranded from the Ka, soulless bodies
>the tar is actually the Nile, since it turns black when it floods. it's the genesis of all life, but when life is created, a chiral or anti-life is created on the other side
>
Well what happened with this Death Stranding where it fricked up the flow of souls was, IIRC, all Amelie's fault for bringing baby Sam back from the Seam.
Yeah the Extinction Entity has come and gone but until Amelie they'd been literal animals (one was a wooly mammoth) or the last was a neanderthal IIRC. Amelie is the first EE with consciousness and the means to do anything about it, and the weight and loneliness of her role caused her to despair and become detached from humanity, eventually finding Higgs and roping him into her plans to bring on the apocalypse early. This is after the Stranding, mind you. That happened earlier while she was still researching what this connection to the other side was about, and how to use it.
>>"Lots of vehicles"
I don't like the sound of this. Instead of just adding a bunch of vehicles, make 3 different kinds that actually feel good to ride. The vehicles were awful in DS1. We don't need more of them, we need them to feel good to use.
well, either we well get premade locked scenarios with day/night or there will be full day/night system. Tbh given nights could be way harder given lack of light, people will try to skip them 99% of time when they get access to some form of shelter. Only way would be if there are deadline and resting/sleeping would punish you/your score. It's nice but probably very hard to not make it chore for players without simplifying some stuff
>take off backpack
>Sam turns into Legendary Soldier Punished Venom Snake and dolphin dives all over the place
Kinography
All I want is to able to remove that gay ass ponytail.
We already saw Sam with different hairstyles and caps in the game
Good to know. Hopefully I don't have to wear a hat to have his hair down.
in the first one you could just put on glasses to remove the pony
Yeah I know that. I meant without wearing glasses or a cap. Like in the first chapter, before Sam joins the UCA.
That's what I did most the game. Suited him
>Two games in a row where someone shoots a baby

Assuming there's going to be a Death Stranding 3 it should take place in Japan
Considering Japan's general population density it probably looks more like Hawaii after the Stranding.
>Sam goes to Japan to repopulate
Abe would be proud of you Kojima
>Death Stranding 3
I somehow doubt that. Kojima has OD, DS2 and whatever he tries to cook after it like some DC version, Physint. I know his people work fast and hard, but still, there's quite a lot for a guy directing all of this in his 60s. And discounting in whatever way he's involved with the movie.
When you listen to the dialogue in the trailer Fragile pretty much says "come on sam, one last time, let's finish this" So i think he's done with DS after this game. Which is good btw. don't get me wrong i love DS but Kojima has such a massive vision so i gladly take a brand new world from this mastermind
agree fully. he doesn't need to get tied down to one franchise anymore, he should keep making weird new original shit like the first death stranding was.
DS2 is almost definitely not going to be global. I think the journey is much more interesting with the "linear open world" model of going from coast to coast. In the trailer we see environments from the desert to the high mountains, and in Death Stranding snowy mountains are the high-difficulty endgame.
This means the game is almost certainly going to go from the Mexican border down to the WINKWINK Strait of Magellan
Does it even matter? Death Stranding looked nothing like the US. The first map looked like Iceland, the 2nd map is a mix of a lot of things, fricking part of it looks like Mars.
Whether the game is just mexico or not won't end up mattering because it'll be a highly fictional version of it anyway.
Just spitballing. DS1 also was insanely condensed for being "The United States", like the scale was laughable. We'll probably see much of the same.
For me, though, the emotional impact of crossing from one end to the other is much better than bouncing around global hubs.
>the emotional impact of crossing from one end to the other is much better than bouncing around global hubs.
Same. Although I did not mind DS1 having 2 maps, one smaller and then the larger one. First map is super comfy.
When I think about the best moments in video games, approaching Port Knot City is one of the first ones that pop into my head
It's going to be global in the sense that many different areas will be connected by the tar the Mangellan is able to travel through. So you have a region in Mexico, another in the US (something like a base probably), another in Iceland, Germany, Japan, Russia etc. It's the proper to connect many varied different regions into a single game that passes in a somewhat realistic setting. If Kojima does right by this, it could really fricking nice. Probably what MGSV should be tbqh.
I don't think that makes sense with how the Chiral Network works. It has to be pretty contiguous to support the revival of civilization.
I was just about to post something like this. Yeah I have a strong feeling we'll be visiting multiple continents.
According to Kojima the ninja is an actual character and not a bot
It would be quite the subversion to be BB-controlled. I actually wanted that to be honest. It would be fun to watch a big baby robot going cuhrayzee with moves and laughing all the way to slicing every enemy to pieces
>its bb
Yeah, it's Lou, or a bot powered by her soul.
In the reveal trailer, Higgs is playing BB's Theme, and IIRC it plays in the State of Play trailer too. Then while they're fighting, you can hear BB giggling while Higgs is fighting for his life. The ninja has an Odradek for a face and shows up specifically to protect Sam from Higgs. This echoes the first game when Lou blocks Higgs' bullets with her Odradek arm.
God I hope so
It being Lou seems like the obvious answer right now based on the trailer, but given the fact taht we've seen her take control of other things, like the toy thing in the trailer, it might just be a temporary thing that BB takes over the body of it.
Reason I say this is because the ninja is obviously part of Higgs' unit, it has the same exact color scheme as they do so I think it supposed to be someone working with him. Whether or not we ever see that version of the bot is another question, might just be that its BB the whole game.
The ninja could be coming from Higgs factory, which means we'll probably fight other ninjabots at some point. In the reveal trailer, BB's Ka seems to materialize in a pod after she's shot. In the SoP trailer at the end, when Deadman is talking about BB-28 (Lou) having been incinerated four years before Sam picked her up, Sam's pod lights up and gives the "blub blub" bubbles.
This also plays into Elle Fanning being Lou's Ha, her body, which was found in the tar chrysalis in the Seam, and who has puppet strings connecting her to the Beach just like the robots Higgs is pumping out.
This makes me think that puppet dude is also a dead person who's soul is animating the puppet from the Beach.
The fact that it's excited and laughs during the fight, is also a lot like Lou. She laughs in exciting situations.
just chilling here, cuz it's a death Stranding thread
You know it.
No, I didn't. I felt it would be too cumbersome to drive to the incinerator. I triple checked my guns all the fricking time to make sure I wasn't using Lethal weaponry. kek
>He killed a single porter, MULE, or terrorist
You didn't beat the game
You can kill them? I'm only a little past Lake Knot but I had no clue.

Bravo Nolan
I'm sorry I made fun of this game a few years ago bros, it's pretty fun and unique. perfect game to relax, drink a few beers, and play on a friday night.
>the duality of anon
i pirated this shit some time after it released and i stopped playing some time after getting the grenade iirc it felt like a walking simulator with some combat and stealth mixed in. as the coping weebs would say it was "not for me"
>as the coping weebs would say it was "not for me"
that's correct though, it isn't for everyone. if they said you "didn't get it", that would be homosexual-y pseud talk, the game is very easy to "get", it's really not a complex game, but that being said, it is very true that it's not for everyone.
Just say you have a sensitive ego instead of wrapping it in self-righteousness.
I played the ps4 version at launch and dropped the game after getting to the 2nd map. My friend got me the DC for my birthday last year and It became one of my favorite games. I'm glad I gave it another shot.
Death Stranding has some cool sci-fi ideas and cool graphics. It just needs better gameplay. There should be more combat, preferably with guns. It could be like a sci-fi version of Zelda, but with guns instead of swords.
I think maybe you should kys tendie, and this comes from someone who loved BotW/TotK and considers them cousins to Death Stranding.
Frick off yourself, if you like Zelda, and you think Zelda is a cousin of Death Stranding, then what is your problem with what I said?
Why shut up? Sure there are other action-adventure games but that's the first one that came to my mind, and I think it's a good comparison.
>it definitely shouldn't turn into a third person shooter
Would that not make it more engaging though? Instead of long sections of just travelling with cargo?
>Instead of long sections of just travelling with cargo?
I repeat, kys
Frick off
Shooters are very popular and many have been highly rated. So I don't think it's right to call them "garbage".
If you like DS's gameplay then fair enough. Personally I like more action, I think. But I think DS does have cool story ideas.
>I like the game I just want it fundamentally changed and to ignore the central gameplay loop on which all the soul, atmosphere, and bonding moments between the characters were built on.
You should continue to kys.
No. There are already hundreds of generic, copy paste shooters for you to play. This game is actually unique and set apart from all that garbage.
If you're not into using a suitcase as an improvised melee weapon, then maybe this type of action isn't for you. it would be boring if sam played like a typical tps soldier, casually taking out enemies from a distance
>There should be more combat
maybe
>preferably with guns
yes
>It could be like a sci-fi version of Zelda
shut up
the game offers more than enough action for what it aims to be. you can load up a truck with weapons, drive along the highway and clear out one outpost after another or hunt bt bosses. I think the gunplay itself could use some improvement as it feels a bit stiff, but it definitely shouldn't turn into a third person shooter
DS has a better gameplay loop than TOTK. They're basically the same type of game, DS just isn't a shitty dlc
hideo has mentioned music and dancing being big parts of the game from the spotify podcast with troy baker and now the ending of this hideotube
just imagining random musical scenes interspersed
(also makes me think the chvrches cameo may be deeper than just a hologram at a bunker)
Oh no lmfao, Hideo played Alan Wake 2.
Hideo INVENTED video game musical numbers.
what do you think his upcoming original stealth action game will be like?
You play as a troon trying to sneak into bathrooms.

>Scent control mechanics
>Managing hormone levels
>Dilation meter that gets worse if you ignore it a'la Sam's boots
>MGS3 makeup and clothing camo system
ngl MGSV's raw gameplay was damned near perfect so it would be really nice to see another game like it. and have it actually be completed.
I have to be honest; I was really hoping Death Stranding was going to be a standalone game and that Kojima was going to attempt another unique idea.
I'm also worried about the sequel being inundated with "weird" stuff to nuance the normalcy of the setting. That all worked and was fine in the first game because it was unpredictable, but DS2 seems riddled with random Kojima ideas purely for the sake of matching the energy of the original.
I cant believe Kojima killed mads mikkelsen from his games. Kojima seemed to literally love this guy like the pope loving Kojima. I forgot how he died last game but chances are hes just coming back like the guitar guy right?
Probably not.
Hopefully he's in that stealth game Kojimas working on.
Mads probably said to him im doing this shit once and then im done or something like that, there was no way in hell he wouldn't have wanted Cliff back and even if it was just for a flashback
Mads has even seen the game
and he's not back, kojima already confirmed cliff won't be in DS2.
Nah, Kojima actually respects the story he's told and the character he created with Mads. He ended that perfectly in 1, bringing him back for cheap 'member this!?' only takes away from how great it was.
Kojima already confirmed that Cliff/Mads is not coming back exactly for this reason.
Maybe he's respecting now, alright, but during MSGV he kind of shat on it.
probably pressure from konami to help keep the brand easily digestible and marketable
Fair. Quite likely indeed.
Pretty based, I hate when shit milks a character especially after they had a satisfying conclusion.
Agreed. Zoomies seem to not be able to understand this concept. Every character needs to be brought back endlessly even if they're killed off over and over and having any real stakes or permanent consequences seems anathema to them.
>Kojima actually respects the story he's told and the character he created
Wake up anon its 2024 not 2003.
the trailer already spoiled everything just like the first game
Lou's soul gets stuck inside the robot fighting Higgs and it becomes the MGS cyborg saviour trope that has gone AWOL

Stay relevant in 2025 kojumbo
Remember what happened when the co-founder of Rocksteady left during development of suicide squad? guess what will happen with GTA 6 since one of the houser brothers left? open your fricking eyes you fricking braindead fanboy.
Ur coping. Probably the biggest media/entertainment release in history ds2 will be completely enshrouded by Jason and Lucia and kojimbo will sell enough units to get by again. Imagine
No shit you fricking moron, they can sell you a bag of shit and label it "GTAVI" and it would sell millions but that doesn't mean the game is good. It will be utter woke trash, there is a reason why the fricking CO-FOUNDER left the company. It's a massive red flag, Dan Houser would have NEVER left if it wasn't some serious major shit going on. I'm guessing Take 2 won't allow them anymore to make edgy jokes and so they can't produce the game that they want anymore so TONS of TALENTED people left R*
>took the bait
No homosexual, I just opened your eyes and now you're shocked and surprised that im right.
My eyes? homie I'm not that anon. I agree with you moron, I just didn't take the bait.
That homosexual was 100% not baiting
Ur talking to someone else, like it or not most releases in 2025 will be completely forgotten because of gta 6 release even if their founders are gone consoomers will get ready at the slop troth and eat it all up until there is nothing left
No matter what splash DS2 makes immediately, just like DS1 it will likely linger and grow and spread into another massive cult classic.
What impact did death stranding make at all?
The first Strand type game
moron-kun, not once did I use the word "impact" in my post.
But it made an impact in my heart
It's a relentless fricking experience if you have autism like me. Otherwise don't bother with this thing, just go play Tom Clancy's, PUBG, COD, Far Cry etc etc.
>they can sell you a bag of shit and label it "GTAVI" and it would sell millions but that doesn't mean the game is good
I disagree. If it turns out bad then people will get mad and reject it. That has happened with COD games in the past. Activision realised that COD has to be something that people actually want to play, if they want to sell copies. And actually there is an example from Rockstar themselves - GTA Trilogy Definitive Edition. There was a backlash because the product wasn't great.
>It will be utter woke trash
I think you are very short-sighted if you think that. GTA has a history of making fun of both sides of American politics.
> there is a reason why the fricking CO-FOUNDER left the company. It's a massive red flag, Dan Houser would have NEVER left if it wasn't some serious major shit going on
I bet he probably fell out with his brother (who is still there, as President of Rockstar Games) in some way. These guys probably have big egos after having such a successful franchise, and big egos tend to clash. Maybe Dan had some ideas and Sam was like "no we're doing it my way" and Dan thought "frick taking orders from my brother my whole life, I will go and do my own thing".
NTA but you have to understand the difference. COD has been wrung out like yearly sports games. GTA is a cultural phenomena and every one is a nuclear deal.
I just picked that as an example of a popular franchise which has received backlash when it released games that fans didn't like. But like I said, Rockstar themselves are guilty of this, with GTA Trilogy Definitive Edition. There was a backlash because the product was not great.
So if GTA 6 turns out to be crap, and it gets crap reviews, I'm sure tons of people will refuse to buy it.
it won't get crap reviews, no matter how bad the game is cause journos lick rockstar's butthole, same with nintendo, these dumbfricks will NEVER give a zelda or mario game a bad score, eventhough BOTW and TOTK did not deserve all those fricking perfect scores
GTA Trilogy Definitive Edition got bad reviews, see here:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grand_Theft_Auto:_The_Trilogy_%E2%80%93_The_Definitive_Edition#Critical_response
But perhaps it is less likely that GTA 6 would get bad reviews, because it's probably going to be a better game. The amount of money and effort going into GTA 6 will be vastly more than what went into Definitive Edition. I'm sure the Take 2 bosses wouldn't want to release GTA 6 unless it was at least moderately good. The brand is too valuable to risk tarnishing it.
You should impotently cry like you're doing already
You're genuinely a fricking moron.
Interesting take.
So you're just an autistic tendie troll? Got it.
>muh 70 dlc with horrifically bad dungeons that took six years to make is soooooo ludo
>hahaha ds and gta are trash!!!
it's just jealousy and fanboyism
Pisses me off because as a tendie and open world gay Dark Souls and Breath of the Wild both represent this tremendous return to form for the genre while breathing new life into it by making the traversal from A to B an intimate gameplay experience instead of holding forward between map markers.
>Dark Souls
Death Stranding* wrong DS.
It's OK, DS and DS are games of the decade
>Video game things named "DS" are mysteriously excellent
We live in a simulation
I haven't even played BotW or the one after it, I've only played older Zeldas. And I never said DS or GTA were trash (GTA is one of my favourite series).
My point about DS is that I just wish it had more action, and then I thought of Zelda, which I think usually has a good balance between action and adventure. As for GTA I was just saying that I don't think any GTA game will automatically be popular with gamers just for having the GTA name. The Definitive Edition trilogy faced a backlash because the quality wasn't very good.
Frick off
Melee weapons are good, but I like guns too. But whatever.
You need to be 18 to post here.
Not an argument
Black person
>That has happened with COD games in the past.
Oh yeah and it's ALWAYS the top seller everytime a fricking new COD game comes out
>I think you are very short-sighted if you think that. GTA has a history of making fun of both sides of American politics.
Black person are you moronic or something? inform yourself better zoomie. This is the same company that went back to GTAV and removed all transophic jokes and offensive shit against homosexuals etc. fricking moron
You're a moron.
Nice argument, braindead frick.
I think 6 will be fine since the brothers made the drafts, wrote the story, etc. together
It'll be everything after 6 you have to worry about
>Nu rockstar
Grim
I have a feeling that the single player campaign is going to be way more bare bones in 6 than in previous entries in lieu of having most of the game's focus go into GTA Online 2.
I just bought the first game. Did I frick up?
The black goo being linked to egyptians/annuaki myth was already spoiled in the first game.
The EEs are egyptian ayy lmaos
Kojimbo is a fricking HACK!
next thing he'll say he invented the idea of black goo/primordial soup in videogames
Kojima invented matter itself. This is Kojima's world, we're just living in it.
Call of Duty invented guns. have a nice day.
>Annuaki, i put that in video game i invented that
Just got done edging to asian femboys for 3 hours. Feelin good. How's everybody else doing? Can't wait for this game btw. First game was great.
Kojima would be nothing without Shinkawa's designs
his aesthetic really does add a lot to DS1
This is true for all project leads throughout history. Every project leader is defined by being able to select and highlight talented and skilled subordinates who are often far, far better than the lead at their particular field.
That's how it's supposed to work.
I NEED THIS GAME
NOW
INJECT IT DIRECTLY INTO MY BIG wiener VEIN
>mobile mother base
yessssssssssssssssssssssss
who's paying for this sequel? Not Sony, I bet.
DS1 paid for it. Game broke even before it even hit PC.
I like how elle's room has exposed piping similar to the interior of the ship
Wtf is norman reedus doing outside of this?
I can’t think of anything I’ve seen him in lately
He's 55yo. He's probably just chilling. The grind is over.
>16 million sales
Kino
Not 16 million sales, 16 million players.
It counts all the people who received it for free on Epic Games store, ps+, gamepass etc.
>magellan travels underground through tar
Different continents confirmed bros wonder how many maps we're gonna get this time.
also he mentioned it was a different continent from "america" but I'm not sure if he means just north america or if he means across the atlantic
They say Mexico like 40 fricking times in the trailer you esl
mexico is mentioned in past tense, also mexico would be the same continent as the US, morono
we're eating good porterbros
Perfect.
Lunar Sale is live on the Epic Store. If you only have the base game like me now it's a good time to get the DC Upgrade.

I hope Timmy enjoys the only $5 bucks he will ever get from me.
When I beat the first I was like "well that was interesting but I have no desire to play a game like this ever again" and I stand by that.
When was Lou shot?
In the first trailer
Forgot this completely. Thanks
In the reveal trailer.
This game is going to break my fricking heart. Just shatter it. I'm so hyped but I already know it's going to hurt.
Will it though? Lou can't necessarily die at present.
OK so this definitely confirms Lou is a repatriate, right?
It just clicked. This, plus Deadman telling Sam in the State of Play trailer that BB-28 was incinerated before Sam picked her up. BB repatriates inside the pod.
That also clears up the plot hole of why you always got BB back after repatriating in DS1.
So maybe Higgs found Lou and imprisoned her on the Beach in the chrysalis to keep out of his way?
And Higgs seems to also have stolen Amelie's body, maybe he has to travel around in a sarcophagus because he's using Bridget's dead, de-aged body to reincarnate? He wears corpse paint and rises from the coffin like Nosferatu, and when he does so the little religious figure of Amelie (I think) pops up at the same time. It all signals undeath. He's got Amelie's hair, and lost his forehead tattoos. Even his face shape seems slightly different.
So Higg's seems to have started a robo-driven apocalyptic cult based around the Extinction Entity and is seeking to bring about the end of days that Sam interfered with by reconnecting Amelie to humanity?
>the kino we're going to experience
I don't think we're ready bros
>stolen Amelie's body
Not sure I believe that. That would "mimic" in a way a lot of the first games events. I think the problem this time will be a third-party using Beaches to concoct a different path for humanity, perhaps something to do with averting extinction "in their own way", the problem of course will be how fricking ruthless it will be, sort of ends justify the means sort of scenario.
Amelie's quipu too, which is explicitly said in DS1 is used to connect Sam and then later Higgs to Amelie's Beach and lets him always find her.
>that dolphin toy is the same as the end of the new trailer
So Lou is haunting Sam? Might be kino
I look a lot like Sam Porter Bridges, and I am a bigtime racist.
Did Kojimbo say anything about if this is going to be a concurrent release this time? the most populous Death Stranding Director's Cut player base active is on PC (via Steam), so its not like the PS4 era of "we just go with sony and we don't know if anyone wants this game its some new experimental thing", it took years to get a baseline release and another year to get the Director's Cut (which should have been near concurrent). Frick platform exclusivity contract bullshit and the faster we can get away from it the better.
Nope. I think the vibes so far indicate that Sony will get the cake on this one and enjoy a limited time hold on the game, unfortunately. At the very least giving that most of the game's success was on PC (or so I'm told), Kojima won't wait long to push a PC release. Probably same thing as before: 8 months or so. Good enough for me, I just have to stay the frick away from spoilers.
mfw hiding DS2 threads for a fricking year just so I can play it on the tastiest 5000 series card I can afford.
Sam Porter Bridges is literally me
It's really not that bad IF we get a 1st trimester release. Going into 2026 to play the game will be real suffering.
Probably timed exclusive like the first game.
I'd put up with like...no more than 3 months for them to get it technically aligned for wider hardware and they can use it as an excuse to massage Sony's tiny balls 'oh yes you get very big exclusivity yes you do" but any more than that is just bullshit. Honestly I'm not sure what we can do about it, but it not like its even scheduled for console release THIS year, they're waiting until 2025, so another frick you and wait after that is just frustrating as all hell.
Agreed. Although Kojima said something really odd to Sam's VA during that presentation today: he said that assets were done and now they are just putting everything in place. I don't like this at all. It feels this could take a good chunk of 2025 to happen. Frick, a November type of release would be too damn long.
See here: https://youtu.be/8SegRMGH_K4?t=1068

Late 2025 is what I predict.
>How long did it take you to complete the recording for DS?
>a year and a half
>Kojima said they will start recording lines now
IT'S A FRICKING NOVEMBER RELEASED IT'S CONFIRMED
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
it's better this way, GTA 6 is supposedly coming out EARLY 2025 so you don't want to clash with this shit.
kek
Now it makes sense. You just reminded me of Piranha Bytes' publishers putting out ELEX 2 against ELDEN FRICKING RING
What a bunch of morons.
Yeah, imagine being this stupid. Working on a game for years just so you fail to sell it because you released during a massively hyped game. Every game that comes out when GTA 6 comes out is DESTINED to fail.
>GTA6
A far as we know these are completely different games with different audiences, so i really hope they aren't playing corporate "lets delay half a year because some other big name will take up all the SOSHUL MEDIUH oxygen" game, especially if they go

>MID to late 2026 PC

He better fricking return in full body kino scenes
I hate children. Is this game for me?
no
Yes, you'll love it
All true.
No + gb2 r/childfree
I also hate children but DS made me love the babby by the end.
Death Stranding induces baby fever in men
After played DS, I greatly felt the need to have baby with Léa Seydoux
so true
mama was hotter
chiral artist for me. Autistic Asian girls are my weakness.
I loved BB. Their interactions were great.
I swear to fricking god shooting Lou better have a good-ass payoff considering the ending of DS1 was a hope of her having an actual life.
Lou is probably some super saiyan ass tier Beach being considering what she showed she was capable of in the final couple of chapters in DS1
That's why they're focusing on "BB-28 is actually special, she was incinerated years before you even met, there's some huge mystery going on here" in the trailer.
My bet it she's going to be like Akira of the DS universe
>Lou is an EE
Yeah, that's what I'm expecting.
Other way around. Amelie/Bridget was the EE. Lou was born decades after her. The chrysalis Elle Fanning(Lou?) was found in contained, per the DS2 trailer, amino acids and the Captain theorized the that the tar could be a kind of primordial soup.
So if Amelie is the extinction entity, and there have been 5 others in history which preceded evolutionary explosions, then Lou is the first of the next era of evolution.
>and the Captain theorized the that the tar could be a kind of primordial soup
Death Stranding is what if Shinji became a deliveryman and tried rebuilding the world after EoE where everyone turned to LCL Soup
>that the tar could be a kind of primordial soup
Makes sense considering whatever that cat-thing is. Anyway I'd love to theorize but I've gotta hit the hay. Have a good one anons.
Keep on keeping on, fellow Porter.
I hope so. kek
Especially because Rockstar doesn't seem to be in the business of making expansions/DLCs anymore, so it's better be BIG.
This also explains why Higgs is after Lou and wants her out of the way so much. Higgs is trying to end EVERYTHING. He wants to create the Last Stranding. Lou is the rebirth after the Stranding, a new Eve of sorts (I would put money on hearing that reference at least once in DS2).
>Higgs is trying to end EVERYTHING
I didn't get this about Higgs at all. He's not dying. He's a funny dude. He's tall. He has powers. Why not find a gf, get married and stop that fricking commie gobbledyasiatic?
His parents died, mother alluded suicide, was raised by his drunk paranoid uncle who kept him locked in a bunker and beat him horribly to keep him in line. Higgs has very mixed feelings about the man. One day during a bad fight Higgs stabbed his uncle and killed him, then had to drag the body out of the bunker before he went necro and caused a voidout. That exposure to the necrotizing body is what gave Higgs DOOMS. Higgs then became a porter, hooked up with Fragile, and was slowly growing despondent until he met Amelie who fricked his brain wide open and turned him into an apocalyptic loon.

why is sam such a silly fella? has he got the tism?
>has he got the tism?
Do you still have any doubts?
He kinda does, and a deep aversion to being touched (aphenphosmophobia).
This scene, and everything about it, was when I knew this game was going to be fricking insane.
He is very depressed after his pregnant wife suicided and caused a voidout that obliterated their entire town where Sam was the only survivor because he's a repatriate
>that speed
Why doesn't Timmy stop giving free games and instead buy a few more servers
disasters like Earthquakes and Forest Fires will appear in the game, in addition to the Flash Flood already shown in the latest trailer
Kojima, what sort of prophecy are you making for Mexico in these coming years?
Why are they shooting in this game. What happened to "Stranding" genre?
The guns are there for adhdgays. Real gamers ONLY use the strand
Bro you had a rocket launcher in the first game, but you didn't play it so it checks out that you don't know what you're talking about.
There's shooting in both games, but DS2 seems more action focused since it looks like you'll be encountering Higgs' Beach-powered robot army rather just MULEs and terrorists.
LVL 3 Stabilizer vs LVL 3 Battery pack

holy shit it's true I love both of these games
Which Animal Crossing game do I play?
IIRC the 3DS or WiiU had the best one, GC had the most soulful one, the DS one is solid. The Switch one fricked the whole game up by adding terraforming and crafting.
I think I'm going to play them in release order. If DS fans tend to like Animal Crossing I will probably like those games as well.
OK but given this context and all of us liking DS, don't cheese and frick with the system date. My nostalgia with Animal Crossing is coming home from school to play it, getting annoyed after homework when it was 8pm and Nook's shop was closed so I had to stash piles of fish in my house to sell in the morning, doing little fetch quests for the villagers, spotting a gift balloon floating through the sky and sprinting to get my slingshot to shoot it down.
I can definitely see how some of the simple satisfaction of helping people and growing your home and community maps to Death Stranding.
If you are going to play them in release order, and you just want to "beat" them, the "main quest" of AC is paying off your debts for the biggest house. After you've done that the rest is just village sandbox.
Is this an interview? When was this?
Thanks
And if you hate Animal Crossing you also hate DS. I wish I knew it before buying that game.
looks good
but im afraid it will only be the second best selling strand-type game of all time
I'm not gonna buy a console for one game again.

I think that because of the Lunar sale Epic's servers are taking a bit of a hit too. Anyway, it won't take long.
Ah. Is this your first playthrough? If so, GET OUT OF HERE PORTER! There's spoilers about.
No, no, no. I finished two days ago what a masterpiece and went on to wait for the DC's version going on sale. Luckily for me it just hit the shelves on the Epic Store today, so I got it.
Pic related, my "final" stats on the base version.
>88 hours
Not bad anon. Close to my first playthroughs time. I don't have a pic unfortunately.
Yeah if you're in these threads you're fricked. Picking apart the trailers necessitates a lot of spoilers from the first game.
Please, Kojima, let me take the Magellan to the moon T_T
This looks like either a Beach or in the high mountains. You could see the Earth from Amelie's Beach.
Are you stupid? You replied to a picture of the moon and uploaded a picture of the earth. Blind or just dumb?
It means there was a beach where a planetary object took up a surreal amount of space on the horizon, with Amelie she was looking out to the Earth she was destined to bring an extinction to. Who knows what this weird beach is where you can see the moon and where strange flying creatures exist.
I hate this cat already. I hope that changes.
He's a big guy.
4U
He's also a predator-looking nilla.
Yeah, definitely some Beach. Too cinematic to be just a normal sight in the game. Kojima is using that scene to fricking shoot directly into our kokoro. I'm certain of it.
what is his name?
Gigahomie
Black personman
KINO
Fragile has a dry and corny sense of humor, a lot of "dad jokes".
I thought the director's cut implied that Higgs and Fragile were supposed to be siblings
I never saw anything about that. Higgs works for Fragile after becoming a porter. His journals show he's amazed with her DOOMS powers, but then he meets Amelie and she mindbreaks him, quickly growing to despise Fragile and what she and eventually Sam represent and do.
Negawatt?
Not by blood. Higgs worked with Fragile's mother, she said he was like a son to her, but iirc she never told him about Fragile
FUNNEH
and people think a movie could ever do this justice
That's why they probably will do something in-universe. Too much shenanigans to repeat the game in any way whatsoever.
This is what I see when I stumble upon one of those giant BTs. There's TWO of them in the old volcano observatory, on top of a puddle
Is it hard to take down the Giant BT ghosts? I just avoided them in the Volcano Observatory because I got scared of the Gold Patrolling Ghosts
Not really, by then you have access to plenty of weapons to deal with them. BTs are only hard and scary early on when you have jack shit to deal with them except sam's piss. On very hard a giant BT goes down with a couple of blood grenades lvl2
A tv series would be kino
Kek, frickin insurance fraud during the apocalypse
Will 21 Minutes to Midnight be back?
fricking physics how do they work
By the end of the game my Sam's spine had turned to jelly. Only the exo could keep me STANDING
ON THE EDGE?
Any beginner tips for someone just starting out DS1? I think I just got out of the prologue and they're making me go to the distribution center to star linking cities towards the west. I built a postbox from an order.
Keep on keepin on. The game is not really hard. Just enjoy the ride and get out of the thread.
Alright. I'm going to get access to some sort of vehicle at a point, right?
Yeah

That seems to be the case. Puppets being controlled from the Beach is a big theme from what we can surmise.

Plenty of anons admitted to that. It's supposed to pack a punch if you are not emotionally stunted. It's alright.
That scene at the end... one last walk to the incinerator
I'm going home again.
LETSGO
Playing DC right now and man they flattened the terrain A LOT, at least close to Lake Knot and the main road. Going wit the Trike is a breeze right now. Not sure how I feel about it yet.
Of course she did. Especially with the second game now being talked about in every gaming circle, her memory is fresh.
>they flattened the terrain A LOT, at least close to Lake Knot and the main road
I'm pretty sure that if a ton of porters walk the same route it flattens out and the smaller stones are dislodged and moved away.
I know about that, but it wasn't like that two days ago when I was still playing the base version. I'm walking the same parts. Unless the DC servers applied the changes to my game already, but the Save Data Transfer also mentioned that changes were made to the terrain iirc or maybe I'm mistaken
I think DC is probably its own servers and there's way more people playing that now.
DC server is separate.
That just happens when a lot of people walk the same path, or you drive the same line a lot. It can change terrain and remove stuff
Frick you people i might actually just go ahead and get the DC. Been a year since my last playthrough on the original and this thread is making me crave being a porter again.
There's a new mission or a few (I don't know yet, I'm about to play in a few minutes) in the DC, so you have also that to look forward, story-wise. And to changes things a bit, it's actually in a facility from I gathered.
Yea frick it, downloading it right now
Kek, you're not the only one. I'm half tempted to play it again too.
i stopped playing after the first time you go into the other world place with the soldiers for unrelated reasons. I am watching a playthrough up till that point to remember what i was doing so i don't have to restart again
Sorta related but if Mads isn't in this one, I hope Kojima works with him on that stealth game. I just want more Mads.
He's too cool, embodiment of manliness of the old days, and all around pure sigmacore meme. kek
He doesn't give me the vibe of being a job that's he's hella interested though, but Reedus also doesn't and it works, so why the frick not
His sections in the game were kino of higher tier
FALL BACK
WE NEED REINFORCEMENTS
GIVE ME BACK BY BB, I WANT MY BB
Of course Mads will be in it. The only question is whether he will be an ally or enemy. Would work as either, or both.
GIWTWM

A coworker left the company recently. She was a big DS fan. Everyone signed the goodbye card with a little heartfelt message as usual, my message was just "keep on keeping on" with no context. I wonder if she recognised it.
It's the right message regardless of whether she recognises it
