Death Stranding

Gordon

Brave I’ve still one chapter to go I think but pretty much done. I told Beth I’d nearly finished the “creepy baby” (her words) game. She said “Good, I never want to see it again.” Gonna be awkward if they make a sequel.

Alex

Sequel seemingly in development.

I’m in. Can’t see how it’ll work or why it needs a sequel but that never stopped Kojima before.

Alex

Yeah, I can’t see how it would work, but then I couldn’t see how the first one would either. 🤣

Brave

That’s no age.

Bought this on sale for the deck ages ago. I’ve only just got round to firing it up. Jesus it’s nothing short of miraculous. Rock solid 40 and looks gorgeous.

I like the idea of a traditional Xmas Death Stranding play through. I’m going to start that today. 🙂

Gordon

Brave I’m not sure I could do a full play through every year. It’d be nice if there was an endless/chill out mode or something. Take out all the BTs and other stressful bits and just do a series of deliveries. I really enjoy spending time in that world just walking from A to B.

Brave

It helps that I can skip most of the cutscenes tbf 😉

Didn’t see this coming … just coming up on a 5 year anniversary, so an exclusivity expiry, or maybe something else?

One interesting point is the engine used. It used the Decima Engine from Guerrilla Games originally. Has that been ported to XBox? Has the game been ported to a different engine?

Brave

Day one.

Although the music doesn’t seem a patch on Low Roar from the first game.

Jogort

Brave just watched that, looks stunning.

Gordon

Brave I’m in. I do hope there’s still plenty of quiet moments and it’s not all mad shit like the trailer. Obviously that’s not something that sells, but the best bits of DS for me were just walking along with nothing much happening, taking in the scenery and enjoying the soundtrack.

Alex

I’m looking forward to every demented second.
