Topic: Death Stranding OT

@0D0 I find it more like a weird combination of MGSV and Horizon Zero Dawn. Granted, I haven't played a lot of MGSV, but justfrom what I remember.

I've just managed to run away from BTs the couple of times I've been caught by them.

The gameplay mechanic of holding your breath and waiting while they're around you is really good. I just love the tension from it.

What I'm not really loving is all the menu stuff when preparing deliveries and things. I get that it's pretty in-depth and adds an element of strategy to the gameplay but honestly I feel like I could do without that. Might just start using a guide somewhere of what items to bring with me and stuff.

I do really, really want to just whip out a sniper rifle most of the time.

Put a bunch of things in a private locker, but I feel like I'll probably forget about it. Just like squirrels do.

@Octane a dumb squirrel, maybe.

True, I was wondering if there's a way to track all the private lockers you interacted with, or if I'll have to write this sort of stuff down.

If 'Bridge Over Troubled Water' isn't used as one of the songs in the game at some point, Kojima needs to up his game.

@roe Funny you mention that, because I had it stuck in my head this morning, and I was thinking about how fitting it would be for Death Stranding.

I think Sony owns the rights to most of the S&G songs, so it's definitely possible.

Is this song in Death Stranding?

@KratosMD it’s funny, coz while I know you genuinely love it, I am reading your posts and it’s like you are being sarcastic 😂 Your last post just describes what could be a very mundane experience for somebody else. I am genuinely wondering if we are playing the same game sometimes.

Sure though, it’s pretty fun and oddly addictive, and I think it will continue to grow on me - I wasn’t blown away by Zelda until I’d put 30-40 hours into it, to be honest.

@KratosMD i'm on 5, but i just want to deliver stuff and explore for a bit, had a truck full of goods until i was caught by BT's and ended up causing a voidout! The story just seems to get crazier the further in you get.

@KratosMD haha. The more I think about it, the gameplay loop would have suited No Mans Sky very well.

I have the online features turned off, because I really enjoy building it all myself lol. Maybe I'll turn it on when I want everything to progress a little faster.

@Octane turn them on you fool.

I think I'm at the end of chapter 2 and I'm enjoying it even when I'm slow carrying as much cargo as possible. My favourite thing is carrying almost too much. It's funny and challenging.

@kyleforrester87 Nah man, that's easy mode.

@Octane To be honest, it's a much better game knowing there's no chance we'll ever run in to one another

@kyleforrester87 Very true.

@Octane that's one strand i'll be happy to keep severed.

Potential small spoiler but pretty safe I think but I noticed...
