Death Stranding 2 is good
dollman sucks
>The three dog fight on into the wilder mode>Sam must take less than 40% damage to the badgeGo fuck yourself kojima, I did it on the second try
Death Stranding 2: On the Beach is not a video game. It's Kojima's $100 million excuse to hang out with Hollywood celebrities while you hold the left stick forward for 40 hours. Almost every location has a flat path straight to it. You can make any delivery by holding forward or driving a truck. Congratulations, you just experienced "gameplay." The game throws numerous tools at you that you absolutely never need. It's like being handed a Swiss Army knife to eat soup — the equivalent of playing Doom where enemies fall down without you ever pulling the trigger.But the crown jewel — the absolute proof Kojima doesn't make games — is the "Pretend You Won" button. Die to a boss and the game literally asks if you want to skip it. Pick it and you get a SLIDESHOW of how the fight would have played out. The results screen reads "Imaginary Victory" with a drawing of Sam sleeping. Even the protagonist doesn't care. No game should let you skip core combat. That's not accessibility — that's a confession. That's Kojima saying "gameplay doesn't matter, just watch my movie." The single greatest evidence he's NOT a game developer — just a film director accidentally given a dev kit instead of a camera.Did this cinematic walking screensaver win GOTY? NO. Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 — an actual VIDEO GAME with actual GAMEPLAY — bodied Kojima's celebrity meet-and-greet simulator at The Game Awards, Golden Joysticks, DICE, and GDC, racking up 291 GOTY wins in 2025.But don't worry — his own game taught us the solution. He can just Pretend He Won. Skip the awards, read a little slideshow that says "Kojima won GOTY" with a picture of him sleeping. Imaginary Victory. Kojima — put down the controller. Pick up the camera. Stick to making movies. You clearly want to. You were never one of us.

>>737163321Just summon a pokemon.
>>737162824So is your horoscope at the beginning of the game when your enter your birthday supposed to mean anything?
No. And it's not a video game.Death Stranding just proves that Kojima is a extreme retard who doesn't even like videogames. When someone is tardwrangling him he WILL make something with gameplay but won't be happy about it and will fill it with cutscenes out of spite. When nobody controls him he makes cinematic third person walking simulators with schizophrenic ideas and storytelling mixed with simping for celebrities because in the end Kojima is NOT a gamer but a japanese westaboo normalfag who wanted to be in Hollywood.Says a lot that Metal Gear Rising Revengenance is the best metal gear game and Kojombo wasn't even really involved.
>>737163564this but unironicallyDS2 ended the chokehold Kojima's held on me since the MGS days when he could still defy expectations and make something great despite the last one being underwhelming.
>>737163564>>737165757Didn't read lolStill enjoying DS2
>>737165617Think anon.What is the shape of cancer and where you have seen it in the game.Pisces is fish.Cetus is whale.Delphinus is dolphins.Think anon think.
how can anyone play these moviegames where everyone looks like uncanny wax figures?
>>737167608the stabilizer does THAT?
>>737162824Eh, if nothing else Kojimbo at least pours some imagination into AAA games, even if it's just his whacky westaboo auteur nonsense.
>>737167720jetpacks are pretty great
>>737162824>loved the first game>decide to check out the second>£69.99bong on pc
>>737167897I loved the first gameI am loving the second game. Honestly, the fact that I am having so much fun after experiencing the open world of Crimson Desert is pretty surprising. Death Stranding just has fun gameplay as I drive my truck on comfy roads and shoot bandits with a tranq gun from 100000 miles away. I actually 5 starred quite a few people so far even though I wasn't intending to. I got Pragmata waiting for me after this game. What a good time for video games, I'm chaining back to back fun games.
>you can give Likes in cutscenesBut for what end?
>>737169254Because you like the cutscene?
>>737162824I finished this game and the entire time I was hoping it would turn into something more than it was, ultimately it just felt like a big dlc for the first one
>>737166228What game do you think had good character models?
I finished the game few days ago but I still dont get what that guy was trying to do, plus he just sort of fucked off after die hardman appeared

>>737170279>no youyes i used the term quirk chungus to illicit rage when talking about this quirk chungus faggot nigger millennial game. thats how normal people react when they see your favorite game let that sink in
Guys, I pirated legally achieved a copy of this game, does it have a resource stagnation problem if you play it offline like the first one did?
>>737170368that's not what "no you" means you stupid fucking redditor You talk like a fucking faggot. GO BACK
>>737170427I am only halfway but no, because of the mines. I am pretty sure like 50-75k yellow ghost dust will upgrade everything and it's easy as shit to farm. I found that all the time I spent cleaning out 4-5* outposts was a complete waste of time compared to just mining and teleporting with the HMS Fragile's dumb Fucking Hat
>>737170440i said your game is X and then you said no actually it is you that's X. saying it doesnt mean whatever you think it means doesnt change reality, this is a sad cope. you know death stranding is for gay reddit niggers deep in your heart

>>737163564Kojimbo can never recover from this!
