Considering that Death Stranding tasks players with being couriers of various goods, the landscape itself needs to make for both a fascinating vista to marvel at while also providing environmental geometry interesting enough to navigate. Whatever real world location a potential sequel were to emulate, it should be simultaneously gorgeous yet different enough from the mostly rocky terrain of the first game to provide players with a fresh new experie
Aside from the game’s stellar performance, Kojima Productions actually added new content into Death Stranding’s PC version in the form of new side quests in reference to the classic Valve franchises Half-Life and Portal . These quests become available around Episode 2, which is pretty early in Death Stranding’s campaign. These quests are definitely an exciting addition for PC players as they reward different cosmetics from and based upon the Valve franchises; for an example, look no further than the above screenshot that shows a Half-Life skinned vehicle. I’ve haven’t completed all of the Valve quests yet, but I can tell you that in the first mission I hauled a heavy Portal Companion Cube back to a delivery terminal and was rewarded with an awesome pair of Gordon Freeman glasses to make Sam look a little more scienti
Since 2019 released so many titles, it makes sense for Sony to offer discounts even for recent releases going into the new decade. Many games on sale will have post-release and downloadable content in 2020, so player interest for those titles will increase as the year goes on and even older games will continue to see some retention in sa
In the end, there may be some gamers who aren’t interested or already have the games on sale in the PlayStation Store. Those users shouldn’t worry, because there will be a new rotation of deals and savings that starts in a few days on January
Many gamers will be tuning in to The Game Awards 2019 to see which game won the coveted Game of the Year, but others will be tuning in for the world premieres. The Game Awards has gained a reputation for being an event where major new game announcements take place, with this year’s event promising at least 10 world premiere reveals for gamers to look forward
Greek mythology has inspired many stories over the years including video games from God of War to Immortals Fenyx Rising . One reason for this is, even in modern times, that this southeast European country still boasts dazzling architecture. Even in this hypothetical future with much of its cities destroyed, the many towns and cities to be seen within Greece would still contain an almost otherworldly experience to them, even in a ruined state. Landmarks in Athens or the island of Crete’s sense of mystery and wonder would arguably only be heightened with a post-apocalyptic design, adding to the notion that these are the remnants of a world long g
Whether directly or not, Red Dead Redemption 2 ** and Death Stranding** both deal with the theme of fatherhood in a major way. The settings of the two games are quite different from each other, with the former taking place in the American old west while the latter is a post-apocalyptic sci-fi game, but the main characters in both stories deal with fatherhood or father figures throughout the entirety of the games. The theme of fatherhood is also especially significant in the predecessor to _ Red Dead Redemption 2 _ and and other Kojima games before _ Death Strandin
Sam frequently has flashbacks and hallucinations which include Amelie, whom he sees as both a mother and a sister at times. Sam’s relationship with Bridget, another mother figure in the game, is also pretty complicated and drives a lot of his motivations as a character. Amelie, though, is one of the only characters, besides Lou, whom Sam holds great affection for and this family tree is made even more complicated with the inclusion of one of the antagonists of Death Stranding , Cliff Un
_ Red Dead Redemption 2 _ and _ Death Stranding _ may be similar in the fact that both games have a few characters which act as father, or mother, figures for the protagonist but they differ greatly in the theme’s execution. Basically, both games are about dads to some deg
On July 14, Hideo Kojima’s latest creative venture, Death Stranding , finally releases Click on Deathstranding 2world PC . Like other PC players, I’ve waited since November to experience Death Stranding on PC, and now that I’ve had my hands on the game for about a week I’m happy to say that, so far, it was well worth the w
With 2021 bringing more PlayStation games and photo modes to use for screenshots, the next Share of the Year should be just as exciting as this one. From God of War ’s sequel to Horizon Forbidden West , PlayStation fans should have plenty of opportunities to blow their fellow gamers away with their in-game photography ski
However, if you’ve already played the game, watched some gameplay online, or read Logan’s wonderful review , then that isn’t news to you. In that case, you’re probably wondering how this PC port performs. Well, I’m happy to report that so far my experience has been amazing; it’s clear that the seven months since the game’s PS4 launch were very well-spent. My PC barely meets Death Stranding’s recommended settings, yet I’ve played around 10 hours so far, all at 60+ FPS without graphical errors, slowdown, or crashes. Meanwhile, the graphics are some of the best I’ve ever seen on my PC; certain environments and character models are hyper-realistic to the point where I feel like I am controlling a character in an HDR video. This isn’t too surprising considering it’s a port to PC, but it is worth mentioning. After all, we have seen some terrible PC ports in the p
