Is there combat in this game or is it literally just walking?
this is just a rip off of pepsiman2020, Moscow. Sam Porter' ancestor has to deliver food from McDonalds across the city to avert people going hungry. Available in Steam in 2021: Death Stranding - Delivery Club.The next game is set during the 1960's and Sam Porter's ancestor has to deliver a package across the Russian wasteland to avert nuclear holocaust.
There is combat and it's surprisingly good, but also a very small part of the game.
Youtube essays are never good (especially the ones that start with "anatomy of...", this is the biggest red flag)Matthewmatosis is the best at this sort of video essay or video review.
Is it better to play Death Stranding online or offline? It seems to me that the point of the game is to travel through the landscape with a dread to be lost and alone, as a pioneer tracking new roads between isolated cities and communities. The online component of the gameplay seems just distracting and off-topic.
Couldn't wait for torrent so I bought this game on Steam. 5 hours in, I'm still not sure what to think of the gameplay so I will wait with opinion on this part.
However, I can't understand why graphics is praised so much. I run the game on max settings and I admit it runs pretty well, but I don't get what so special about the graphics. It runs well because maps are devoid of npcs, textures are nothing special and you're basically walking through a giant mostly static sandbox with stuff that activates whenever you aproach some point. AA doesn't work well too.
Is it just me or what? It's funny because whole internet is universally impressed with the graphics part, but I just don't see it at all.
I think online stuff helped a lot so that you spending time gathering resources and building things feels purposeful instead of pointless waste of time. I recently logged in to take some screenshots and found out some of my structures are still standing months after I stopped playing because other players are still repairing them.
i bet kojima have 1000 hours in this game
Gameplay options/choices take a while to get going, just make sure you don't burn-out before the meat of the game (do-anything-and-everything-before-advancing-the-story™ not advised.)So I've played it for 3 hours yesterday.
