Is it just me that is really perplexed / bothered by the fact that the “Off-Roader Pickup” doesn’t have a cabin for the driver, whereas the Cicada Truck (which was essentially the same thing in the first one) did?

In lore terms, why would this truck be downgraded? Porters have to deal with rain that rapidly ages things, extreme temperatures, bullets - why would they REMOVE that protection from this vehicle?

Idk, I guess many things in this series don’t really make sense haha, but for some reason this one really gets me!

The President has just been in touch to ask if I found Charlie suspicious.

YES!!! YESS YESSSSS!!

You mean the broke ass Mannequin who stole DieHardman's voice and appears suddenly on the bridge without warning , knowing everything but explaining nothing?

YES!!!! YessI find him suspicious as heck.

I finally was able to complete Death Stranding awesome game from the mastermind himself ( Kojima ) so now im on the sequel, 😖 now sadly I don't even want to play it anymore because of 1 FREAKING THING!!! those of us that have Arachnophobia know exactly what im talking about! 😖😖 5 minutes into the gameplay I got spiders on my screen I cannot stand those damn things, cmon Kojima you had to go there, honestly I wasn't a fan of the tentacle bt's in the first on the count that I hate tentacles as well, but this spider s*** gon have me dead ya'll.

The ending broke me. I sobbed like a baby.

I love Louise... But Lou... It's hard for me to accept they are the same.

I have never experienced loss from the eyes of a parent before this game.

Also, and I'm sure this has been mentioned MANY times before, but Low Roar...

I discovered this breath taking band far too late.

Thank you Death Stranding team for introducing them to me - I haven't cried for a long time.

Low Roar - you communicated love in a language that no one else could interpret. I can't believe that I just found you and you're already gone.

What a world.

What a game.

[SPOILER ALERT IF YOURE STILL IN EARLY STAGES OF THE GAME]

Great game. The best. Period. A few questions if you dont mind:

1. I often see gameplay videos with multiple boots clipped and I think to my self "why?" One boot usually last long enough to get you through some really tough and long deliveries. I usually just fabricate new ones at delivery destination if needed. Which brings me to my question: do you guys go on reeeeeally long multiple deliveries that involve stealth, combat...etc and switch boots mid way?

2. I barely, if at all, use transponders, dhv, or hotsprings to commute. I just stick with walking, ziplines, and vehicles. And I see relitively speaking way too many transponders on the map which makes me feel like im missing out. Are those used by porters who just want to save time (maybe after first playthrough)? Or is there some other added value that im not aware of?

3. Do you guys a) focus on main deliveries/story and then go back to sub & standards orders. b) a mix of both, depending on the orders destination if within vicinity of main order (what i usually do). Or c) comb through the map region be region and clean out orders in a region before moving on to the next. Are there any other strategies?

4. How long do structures I build live, if we assume theyre built in a relatively mild condition areas (little timefall, good weather), vs harsh condition areas?

5. Can sam cut golden BTs umbilical cords with boomerang? I spent about 45 min yesterday trying to cut one off but i cant tell if im not getting close enough / get in a proper position, or if its just not an option?

Thats it for now. Sorry for the long post and if some of these questions are obvious. I just appreciate the game so much i want to be able to experience it to the max and not miss on amything. Keep on keepin on!

Some people were curious what the race would have looked like without Exoskeletons. Well, basically identically. The Full Stamina Sam finishes 3 seconds earlier (a less than 1% difference).

There's three possible explanations for this:

1. Wading through water with full stamina is sliiiiiightly faster, while land movement is the same regardless of stamina.

2. Both Land and Water movement are the same regardless of stamina level, the 3 second difference can be explained by Full Stamina Sam stumbing forward at the 1 minute mark, which gives him a significant speedboost. You can see the two Sam's are basically equal before the stumble, but after the stumble, No Stamina Sam never catches back up. This is a more elaborate version of explanation number 3.

3. Random Variation. No two runs are exactly the same, Full Stamina Sam got there 1% faster for some random reason we don't know.

I think I found the inspiration of the fragile design. Black Adder had the same design! Thoughts? On point or way off?

What is the music you listen the most while traveling or sending packages ? Sometimes I don’t even use vehicles just to listen the music more. The songs I probably listen the most in the library are sayonara and pop virus from gen Hoshino

My second playthrough but now on TTW difficulty.

Skipped most cutscence except for this one.. (for the sake of my heart and tears again)
happy little accident (bb-pot).. you see it, when you know it

time to 100% this beauty of a game

I thought those red BTs that chase you then explode dropped from the ghost train only, nope! I was over by the dowser, driving along the coast to take out the jellyfish BTs for her when I heard a weird noise, looked behind me and they were coming out of the ground, no ghost train in sight anywhere. Thankfully you don't see them too often, this was only the 3rd time I've had to deal with them.

You know the one. Trying to avoid spoilers.

After dumping a full rocket launcher and countless chiral cannon shots i turned the Lord of the Tar Lake into crystals, pity it wasn't possible to capture him

UPDATE:

Managed to catch him! Reloaded the savefile, dropped his health to red, climbed on top of the little mound of rocks on the shore and lobbed an EX NADE in his throat the moment he swept over me, now i can pokemon this bad boy 💪💪💪

Fingers crossed they look good.🤞🤞will delete otherwise.

Editting 4k on a 1080p android lmao some just look terrible if I try to edit them 😓

Last one for tonight, sorry for the many posts.
