The PlayStation Store’s Spring sale is live right now and offers massive discounts on over 600 PS4 games. The best part about the Spring sale is that it offers great deals of up to 50% off on some of the biggest PS4 games right now. All discounts will be available until April 28th, giving players tons of time to pick up a game or two, but it is also worth noting that Sony will be refreshing its lineup of games on sale on April 1
Based off of Arthur’s description of the events, it’s clear that the murder-robbery had taken a deep mental toll on him which could partially explain why he eventually wanted to convince John Marston so badly to run away with his wife and son before their lifestyle finally caught up with them. He felt that John still had a chance to become a decent father, so he helped him out. Arthur was able to come to this decision much quicker after he realized how crazy Dutch had bec
This doesn’t necessarily need to go along with the previous entry, and would actually work best with the current system where BT infestations stay in specific places. There already is a system for clearing out BT Territory by destroying the Giant BT that can usually either be found in the center of the area or shows itself by attacking the player. However, while this will clear the area and allow the player to move through hostile territory in ease, it never lasts for very long, making it somewhat more difficult to enjoy these sections of Death Stranding ‘s open-world without having to immediately run a
Rockstar Games and Kojima Productions have dealt with this sort of theme in the past. _ Red Dead Redemption _ was entirely about his fatherhood with main character John Marston struggling throughout the entire story just to keep his family safe. The insanely huge and complex story of the _ Metal Gear _ franchise touches upon the theme of fatherhood throughout the multiple games connected to it. It’s clear to see that both developers enjoy writing around this theme in particular which has led to comparisons between Red Dead Redemption 2 and Death Stranding _ . _ In either case, dads are a big deal in these ga
In the lead up to Hideo Kojima’s latest game, the game director had often mentioned what he believed was the start of a new subgenre. Affectionately dubbed a “strand” game, much of Death Stranding ‘s marketing was bolstered by what Kojima believed was an innovative new concept for games. Obviously, stating that a game is starting a new genre before it’s even released is short-sighted, something Kojima addressed by immediately doubling down. Kojima had essentially stated that the full potential of an “action strand game” genre would not be met without a few sequels to present the scope of his new subgenre of video ga
That manifests in-game as the many community-fed systems of infrastructure around Death Stranding ‘s world . Players can contribute supplies to survival caches, containers, roads, paths, and other important exploration tools for getting through the game’s abstract, apocalyptic interpretation of the United States. Because the main premise of the game is re-connecting the isolated United States together after supernatural disaster, many of the gameplay concepts reflect that idea. Players are both encouraged and rewarded for placing objects in the world that aren’t necessarily imperative for themselves, but could save lives for others, at least conceptually speak
So, there’s a strange turning point that comes after reaching the first of Cliff Unger’s war beaches, where the player is suddenly given the ability to kill enemies with the introduction of lethal weapons. However, as Kojima Productions writes through the gameplay , the lack of ludonarrative dissonance means that the player is heavily punished for killing enemies, but is given almost no reward for doing so. It’s a positive in a storytelling sense, but leaves the player with all these weapon options that are really meaningless and could be explored further to give a stronger risk/reward factor for straight up mur
If this is the case and Kojima Productions is looking at continuing Death Stranding into a series, then there are a few critiques and requests that the sequel may need to address. Similarly, there are some natural improvements that a sequel can make as both gaming technology improves with next-gen consoles and PC hardware, as well as the capabilities with in the game world evol
Even with these best sellers at the top of the list, there are many more titles in the store to be discovered or remembered, at a fraction of the original cost. The ever-lasting Borderlands 3 is currently available for purchase at $38.99, a thirty-five percent discount on the original $59.99 price. Additionally, Red Dead Redemption 2 , which may also be coming to the Switch in the future , has a sixty-percent deal on its Ultimate Bundle, going for a mere $39.99 compared to the whopping $99.99 cost when not on sale. And underneath these titles, there are still over a thousand other on-sale games to be found in the Playstation St
