    The thing about Death Stranding I wanted to see more of had nothing to do with its core gameplay, but actually the side mechanic of being able to build things that other players could use. Like, we all love Dark Souls messages and how entertaining and sometimes helpful those can be. But there was something incredible about the design of being able to build a bridge that other players in other single-player games could also use. That was really special. The rest was kinda pretentious garbage and more-movie-than-game.

    Anon needs to go back and watch some David Lynch, because man, is that second paragraph weirdly on point.

    I went back to catch up with Twin Peaks The Return after he passed and… look, it’s awesome and hilarious, but… yeah, that fits.

    The trailers looked so cool. Then I watched gameplay and I was like “hard pass.”

        I didn’t finish it and I’ve been meaning to go back to it, but the time I spent with it was pretty nice. You can’t deny the sheer balls in making a AAA accurate walking sim.

          It was kinda too scary for me. That’s why I stopped playing, a bit after meeting Conan O’Brien I think.

            I stopped playing too. I really loved the first part of the game when it was just about traversing tge world and doing courier work and avoiding threats, but I quit when it became a game with combat and ‘boss battles’

      It’s the only game that has ever made traversing the world fun to me. I really enjoyed it!

    Is karma even a thing on Lemmy? Anyone? No? Yes? Ok, it doesn’t matter, I’ll take the hit if I have to: the only good thing Kojima did is Silent Hill. He’s a hack.

      I’m not his fan, but that is too harsh. Metal Gear Solid series also has many strong entries, well received by critics and fans.

        His characters stood more out as really cool back during the oil rig revolver vampire era.

      Karma doesn’t seem to be a thing. Just number of posts and comments are displayed, no cumulative points from upvotes as far as I see.

      No, it is not. Upvotes and downvotes mainly just impact post and comment sorting. Karma on platforms like Reddit was good in theory but, was heavily gamed by bad actors to fake perceived authenticity.
