So odd request, is there a decent resource for some of the lore stuff to read that also doesn’t spoil stuff / story elements for later? Loving it so far and great atmosphere but chiral this and blood or ash that and I just want to read a bit so I’m understanding a bit more.

It barely seemed to do any damage. I just ran around until I got bored and reloaded my save. What? Just run away from it or throw grenades at it lol how did you not just decide to go in a straight line out of the oil.

Why do boots have to deteriorate so fast. It’s not like they grow on trees. Edit: VVVV

People said the start was dull but honestly I've had far worse starts to games. I'd complain more about the amount of expository cutscenes compared to actual gameplay than I would about any dullness. Pace is alright so far.

Kojima games are a different kind of weird than other japanese media. LSD is fun weird. His games are...sad weird. Maybe even hateful weird.

Also a great way to play this game is to load your poo poo up and head out on foot, walking slow so you dont have to worry about balance, and play your favorite music on your headphones or something. I tried the PS4 spotify app but it stops once you turn the game back on

I might give you that. Its comparatively better than metal gear, which every single time had a message of "gently caress that guy" that the player themself cant escape from.

Yeah, it would be great to be able to understand how exactly the whole void-whatever thing with the exploding bodies work. The whole chiral left , right hand poo poo don't make a ny sense to me. like why do the cp guy in the beginning try to kill himself?

Dapper_Swindler posted:idk. hateful weird would be those weird anime games that are written by weird japanese uber nationalists that love war crimes and 1000 year old 7 year old girls. Thank you. You finished my thought for me. I forgot about the weapons are girls stuff. Kojima games are more confused. Solid snakes a pretty cool guy and man his life sucks. I wouldnt mind talking about the sexy stuff. I'm not gonna come at it from a radical leftist perspective but it's definitely WRONG. Paz the peace girl is the hardest idea to entertain. Was gonna say I outright disagree with making the character but something was definitely said with "your sweetheart from middle or high school is a victim of a freaking bomb and got blasted to smithereens regardless of your input as a soldier and how cheerful she was" Edit: I know this is the wrong thread because this isnt the MGS one. It's more active tho so I'd say if this gets a discussion going anyone participating can move to the right one. just bob fucked around with this message at 00:42 on Nov 9, 2019 |

The whole chiral left , right hand poo poo don't make a ny sense to me. When a BT fully grabs a living person a voidout occurs. It basically a tactical nuclear weapon going off. So when BTs started occurring, anyone who dies can now be a bomb. This is why they cremate people and people are afraid to live together, because someone dying in the night and not being checked on could lead to your whole city being blown up. That's why he tried to kill himself, to prevent a voidout.

SardonicTyrant posted:Currently on chapter 3. It's kind of weird that Kojima made a unique world where people are walking nukes and the afterlife is a real thing and the plot barely touches the implications of this. The nicolas winding refn character talks about it. He’s the one exploring the whole life and death thing from the trailers. I haven’t gotten that far into the game yet but he does talk about the afterlife the first few times he talks to you. The people blowing up thing absolutely gets talked about.

It's fun to come across a pathway someone else was building and finish it off after they've run out of bridges / ropes. Gotta spam those likes and be helpful.

Can you pause during cutscenes? Hearing about a cutscene over an hour in length has me a bit worried about having to use the bathroom/snack breaks.

Also roads have begun being built in my game. Almost across the entirety of the second map now. Completely passes over two mule camps.

Death stranding seems to be pretty good though. this being said. i think he is better than say David cage who is an out and out sex creep. kojima would probably get less flack over stupid poo poo like quiet if he just went the yoko taro route.

If I’m not mistaken it seems like the BTs are always at ground level, so I’ve had pretty good luck sneaking around them by constantly climbing up rocks and steep slopes Also in a big picture view it seems like either you take the low road and run into bad guys or you take the high road and deal with lovely terrain

I gave up all hope(is that a womans name in mgs? Seems like it could be) for a reply here because everyone is having a jolly time with death stranding and went head first into the old metal gear thread.

I'm mostly excited about seeing more games in this engine with similar freedom of movement like climbing and abseiling. Imagine something like Dark Souls meets BOTW.

The graphics in this game border on photo-realistic. Some of the people do as well. It bodes well for PS5 graphics being absolutely mind blowing.

The body they were taking to the incinerator they thought was a suicide, not taken by a BT but in danger of a voidout. And if that guy was thinking clearly enough to kill himself over that he'd have realized it didn't matter because they were going to fail incinerating the body.

You're told in about 48 hours after death void outs happen.
