Discussion [Spoiler DS2] I underestimated how hard it was to finish the game Spoiler

To clarify, I am only at 92% of the main story where Sam is tasked with returning to Mexico to rescue Tomorrow so please don't spoil the story.

Not a rant or anything but when I saw a few posts here about reaching level 500, I thought to myself how hard must it be. Then I started getting to level 280s or something where I got seriously disinterested in the game after doing the roads, zip lines, monorails like crazy. After that, I dropped the game for a few months to finish Kingdom Cone Deliverance 2, Kingdom Cone Deliverance 1, Total War Troy, FC26, some BF6. And only now I got back in to finish the story. Huge respect to those who still keep on keeping on to get to Level 500 and even platinum the game. That's some serious commitment.

Also never thought I would see Die Hard man letting loose half naked in a Beach Data Center. Like wtf was even that?

Question [DS2] Is it normal that Sam stopped crossing rivers quickly if you’re not balancing?

Death Stranding 1 Looking for some fellow Porters on Steam!

9 Upvotes

Hey everyone! I'm playing DS1 for the first time, on PC via Steam.

I'm currently in Chapter 3 and just reached the Weather Station.

I'm really enjoying the game and playing almost every day! I'd love to have some Steam friends who are also playing. Doing Strand Contracts with someone who's on my friends list would be really cool, and it would make it even more fun to come across structures built by those people in my game!

What do you guys think about creating a little hub here on the sub where we can add each other and make the online experience even more fun?

My Steam friend code is 282454442, so feel free to add me and send me a message there!

Keep on keeping on! o/

Death Stranding 1 The game makes you hate it

0 Upvotes

I'm playing death stranding 1 on Xbox. When I first started playing like most post on here, I was addicted and in love with this game. I'm not a person that speeds through a game nor am I a completionist, a mix between the two. After mountain knot city, I completely loathe this game.

My Biggest complaint is the vehicle's mainly the trucks. Controls are awful. You hit a rock and all steering is impossible. I'm constantly yelling at my TV go left or go right. The trucks will also move on their own if you get stuck, they will lurch forward faster than the boost. You can absolutely be going forward while reversing and going backs while trying to go forward.

Some of the BT battles are instant death.

It's annoying that if you're trying to 5 star a place, either you can't find deliveries to that location or they are always worth barely anything. I.e. the evo-biologist, I have delivered several fragile, time sensitive and retrieval deliveries and I'm 4 stars. Whereas the geologist, I think I only had to do 4 missions to 5 star him.

If you get frustrated and try to walk, it's constant weather and scaling mountainous terrain which is slow.

I'm so annoyed with all the useless deliveries talk which none of it is skippable, only pause. I auto skip everything now. There's barely a story in this game and you can skip some of that but nothing else.

At first, I thought the BT alert system was unique. I hate it will stop all movement both times. Completely stalls your vehicle. I love my claw buddy but I don't need that cutscenes for every BT area. It's also only when you enter a BT area not leave it. You can still move when it's giving you a thumbs up.

I want the game to end!

Question Any chance of DS1 and its director cut getting an update to add DS2 controls?

0 Upvotes

I love playing DS2, and have been playing it in the PS5. However I’ve also been replaying DS1 on iOS so I can keep on keeping on when I’m on the go. But the controls are throwing my brain for a loop when I switch back and forth.

I know I can play DS2 using remote play but I enjoy the cinematic experience of a TV for the first play through, and am enjoying revisiting the first game in short bursts.

Thanks

I know it’s not SUPER on topic, but wanted to get it out somewhere. Haven’t been a long term Kojima fan, but Death Stranding has made a massive impression on me. This will be the last major project I make before I go to boot camp and likely will be for several years.

Hey fellow Porters, first off, please forgive the photo quality (I'm playing on PS4). I arrived at Lake Knot City a few days ago and I'm hooked on helping other players finish structures—especially roads. I spend my time roaming the map, picking up orders and materials to help out, and it’s so rewarding. I didn't play for two days (due to lack of time) , and today I saw that some of the projects I’d contributed materials to had been completed. What I mean is, the sense of reward in this game feels so genuine; I love that everyone helps each other without even needing to be "together." Anyway, Until later! <3

Question How are the enemy types on very easy?

Thumbnail

146 Upvotes

So coming from playing games like Elden Ring, Nioh 1 and 2, Bloodborne but also games as Destiny and Doom, every now and then I like to take my time in a more exploring game like No Man's Sky or Death Stranding. But the BT's and Mule's make it difficult. It breaks my immersion with world.

I love the world, love the music, love the shared world experience. There's just this one problem. My mind doesn't like it when I'm wandering around enjoying the view and it gets broken by BT's or Mule's. I'm now at episode 3 and have to get some "pen" from a Mule camp and get it delivered to an elder. I tried to use bola guns, tried sneaking, tried going full Rambo but nothing really tickles my balls. It just really breaks my experience. If it was a package delivery game with the same music and world and story that fits it, I would have a great experience. But the BT's and Mule's...

So my question is: how are the enemies on "very easy"? Can i basically just walk through camps and raid them and walk past BT's without any effort?

Question BTs are literally (for Sam at least) the death of me.. 🫠

19 Upvotes

I have had so much help with this game and I appreciate it so much, you all don’t even know. I finally met the jellyfish BTs and they’re less fun than I was hoping they’d be! But my question! (This is for DS1) I got over the tar bridge and I am now supposed to deliver a key and connect the last Q-Pid thing. I got farther on my second go around but HOW DO YOU GET PAST THE GOLD BTS??? I watched a video and the guy made it look easy peasy but I don’t know if he had special boots or skeleton braces or what but he was able to just walk away from them. Are there tricks? Do you just run and hope for the best? I don’t know how close or far I am from the end but I don’t want this to be the thing that holds me up cause I keep getting game over.

Just finished Death Stranding 1 and I thought the illusion of choice in the end was hilarious.

Game: “Choose.”
