Its more of tge same, just more whacky in not very positive ways. I do not understand kojima whwn he goes full weird, which he does relatively often in this game. Was better before when he was apparent reigned in a bit.

It feels like you could do either of the two (referencing headshots video) better in other places.

Want to see a story unfold, and skipping most the game areas/mechanics to see it? Watch a movie.
Want to experience the gameplay and logistics and feeling of accomplishment of building monorails and highways to deliver things? Play Satisfactory.

I dunno, could just be me, it feels like it does these things, but both in a more tedious mundanity of 'challenge just to make it take longer' inducing timesync way of one, is made to slow down the other (you have to do the story to get reasons to deliver, you need to deliver and run for 45 minutes to see the next part of the story). And neither is better than just the two options above to get that satisfaction.

shillup says its very different, giving u the truck faster and removing obstacles like combat encounter being very easy now and almost no more bt encounters or quickly remove them with a 1 shot

Vehicles trivialize the game, thats true. The game advices you to wear this or that for your tough journey up a mountain, but you scratch your head and drive to the destination.

Was the combat difficult in the first? I cant remember that it was. Felt like the same.

Yep, first one was challenging in the beginning, on a point I didn't know if I would be able to manage to finish it Very Happy

This is a direct sequel right ? Would be strange to have to struggle again one a simple bt encounter or on climbing a little mountain don't ya think ?

First one took ~9 months to come to PC IIRC, so this might be coming in Spring. Looking forward to this.

I finally started Death Stranding this week after sitting in my back log for years. Was hard to get into until about 8 hours in. Now it has me like a crack addict. I think I'm about 50 hours in and soloing all the big builds offline.

I highly recommend playing if you have been hesitant.

It's worth a purchase anyway cause i'm gonna get my hours out of this one and devs need money too...but i'm not gonna pay full price for a 9 months old game Challenge Accepted

One of the coolest things in this game is building TOGETHER with other people.

Either seeing finished by someone else what you started, either contributing yourself to other people's constructions.

@gordonash Indeed it's hard to get in, but when it clicks, it's an amazing experience.

@blackeyedboy This is unfortunate and weird for me, but strongly agreed. The sense of community and working together in a harsh, desolate, lonely experience is one of the things this did best.

Now i realise i bought part 1, thought I had a pirated it.

I totally ignored the building mechanic and online stuff tbh. It felt so useless and tedious.

Seriously I don't understand why europe has to pay premium for all games. The 1:1 euro/dollar price conversion is bad enough. Never seen a game that' has a lower price in dollars.
People in the US have higher purchasing power allready. It makes no sense.
