The new Death Stranding is so good.

Kojima :delpiero:
Is it as ethereal, aloof and absolutely abstract level freaky as first one?



Most importantly, the cut scenes will be filled with a list actors, but how is the gameplay? Is it more action and general activity other then FedEx delivery gu sim that first one was half the time? Which kinda fit for covid days since that's we were all trapped indoors lol

Yes, even more so. It’s definitely more action oriented, it actually encourages you to play it that way. A good example of that is how now you can shoot while driving. It’s also faster paced and cargo maintenance is easier to deal with.If you liked the first one it’s kinda like that but much better in every way.

Not to mention the world is gorgeous. It’s the most beautiful real life like rain I’ve seen in a game.

In a lot of ways this is much closer to a Metal Gear Solid experience than the first.

The first I played half way through. Then it became too much for me with its less focus on the somewhat repetitive gameplay and very aloof (but beautiful) story. It need more concrete gameplay aspects, and not just alot of point A To B in breath taking world.



If they made the gameplay more concrete, then I will try it after I get back from vacation.

Helldivers 2 is coming to Xbox Series X|S on 26th August.

Does that date sound familiar? No, it's not just my wedding anniversary date. It is the same release date as Gears of War: Reloaded.

This is a fucking own goal from Microsoft. Self inflicted wound. Are you fucking kidding me?

Xbox must have been waiting and working on this launch for more than a year, yet somehow Helldivers 2 is still coming to Series X on the exact same day as Gears of War: Reloaded, pointlessly pitting two shooters with multiplayer against each other and inevitably cannibalizing the launch of both.

Paraphrasing Phil Spencer's statement: Xbox is doing better than ever - that's why we're making thousands of you redundant today.
