It’s an interesting conceptual design that does genuinely make Death Stranding different from many singleplayer and survival-style games. However, Kojima’s comments on the “strand game” genre mentioned sequels , some that may not necessarily be exactly like Death Stranding 2 Guide|Https://Deathstranding2World.Com/ Stranding . In an interview with GameSpot, after being asked about the future of Death Stranding , he stated a new genre of games isn’t defined by just one gameplay experie 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 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 Another title that is worth picking up right now is Bandai Namco’s Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot . The game was just released last January and offers a single-player action-adventure experience that recounts the events of Dragon Ball Z . Players can pick up Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot right now for $40.19, which is 33% off its original price of $59.99. Immediately after its release, Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot received mostly positive reviews from players and critics, and the game went on to top several sales char Before Kojima left Konami, he was working on one of the most highly anticipated projects at the time: Silent Hills . Players were given a glimpse at what a Silent Hills game would look like with PT , or the Playable Teaser, and many thought it was one of the most unique horror titles available. Sadly, Konami canceled Silent Hills and PT was removed from the PlayStation Store not long after. Recent rumors suggest that a Silent Hill reboot is, in fact, in the works. While it seems unlikely that Kojima Productions will be involved with the project (considering that Konami still owns the franchise) anything could happen. The company did, after all, show they knew what they were doing when they released PT in the first pl 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 Another great image sees Dande_Lion55 having a quiet moment in Ghost of Tsushima ’s beautiful world . Jin Sakai can be seen resting with one of the game’s foxes, the delightful creatures that guide players to special charms. Instead of using the fox to get an item, though, the in-game photographer kneels by its side. With the light coming through the tree branches that rest above the pairing, and every detail on both the Fox’s fur and Jin’s outfit standing out, the eye-catching screenshot is amaz 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 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
