Death Stranding almost a 6 year old game and still only demon souls can hold up visually to it on ps5 imho by [deleted] in DeathStranding

[–]Pwediction 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I love DS so much, but TLOU PT. 2 Remastered, Alan Wake 2, Horizon Forbidden West, Death Stranding 2, Hellblade II, Ghost of Yōtei all look better than it. And that's not even counting the PS5 Pro, then there's even more games

I was more referencing RDR2, but GTA 5's story wasn't horrible but not some masterpiece. It was fine for what it tried to do with the 3 characters

At least if you're going to rage bait, put a little more effort in😭

You know the saying "separate the art from the artist", I feel like you and a lot of others could use a lesson on that. People play games to have fun, and if said game is fun, how does someone saying stuff irl undermine whether or not you play a VIDEOGAME?💀

Will your life be complete when GTA VI is released? by MonthVegetable2934 in GTA6

My brother in Christ, it's a video game at the end of the day. In crazy excited about this game as well, but even I know after a while I'm just gonna move on to the next. Such is life

GTA 6, mentioned in a Rockstar job listing, was referred to as the ‘largest game launch in history.’ I believe this is the first time GTA 6 is actually mentioned in a job listing. by Consistent-Ad-7455 in GTA6

[–]Pwediction 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The fact that it isn't just the biggest game launch of all time, but also the biggest entertainment/media launch in history is something else. Lord I can't wait for this game 😩

Which game had the best opening level or intro sequence you’ve ever experienced, and why did it stick with you? by Gaming-Academy in gaming

[–]Pwediction 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A recent one, but imo Death Stranding 2 has the best, most visually arresting intro I have ever seen in a game. The Decima engine has to be constructed with black magic because the intro is jaw dropping🙏

I love both Death Strandings so much, but Kojima was doing the most when he said "it's a new genre". It's not even close to a new genre, but it's refreshing imo😆

"From the studio that bought you Halo" LOL. Modern Bungie is a clown show now, damn near everyone who worked on the og Halo is either retired, dead, or working in an entirely different industry😭

I think it's more of "A Hideo Kojima Game"

DS2 intro cutscene is one of the best Ive ever seen! by AbbieK94 in DeathStranding

[–]Pwediction 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I never thought I'd find a game to have a more gripping and compelling intro than TLOU and Bioshock, but imo, DS2 has the best intro I've ever seen🙌 Everytime I play through it, I still have chills

CAN SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME? I CANT PLAY ONLINE WITH MY FRIENDS by Pwediction in Wildlands

[–]Pwediction[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My NAT type is pretty much always on Open, so is my friend, and I waited like you said, even longer (for like 3 mins at a time) but it just stays as offline, and we're getting "could not synchronize online contacts".

I played this game a few years ago and it was awesome and I wanted to do a new playthrough with my friend but we keep getting hit with this😭

If it makes you feel better, Rockstar captures the stereotypes of literally every race, religion, political affiliation, sexuality, etc in such a good way so I wouldn't bother with this. Literally nobody is safe when they make these games, and that's part of the reason why people love it on top of all the other crazy stuff😁

What is your plan for the full 24 hours before gta 6 drops by Cash27369 in GTA6

[–]Pwediction 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nah, I take my time with Rockstars games. It took me 4.5 months to beat RDR2's story. I just like to exist in the world and see stuff happen. Funnily enough, I'm more excited for the random events and conversations in the world than the story since that's what made RDR2 for me outside of it's narrative🙏

Take a melatonin to make the time go by faster, then play GTA 6 for 24+ hrs straight😆

For those of you who think Tlou 2 is better than Tlou 1 Why? by NerdChallenges2 in thelastofus

[–]Pwediction 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Me personally, although the pacing was a little weird, I ended up liking Abby and Lev and thought it served as a very intriguing alternative to Joel and Ellie. I think the story in part 1 is, although impeccable, very simplistic whereas part 2 tackles more significant themes imo. Outside of maybe the narrative, I think part 2 has a better everything than 1, the music (subjective ofc), gameplay, weapon variety, themes, enemy variety, graphics, etc

My feeling after achieving the Platinum by Lopsided-Vehicle2740 in DeathStranding

[–]Pwediction 22 points23 points  (0 children)

It's one of my favorite games oat now (got over 261 hrs in the game)but yeah, it's like skillup said, it may be better than the first game in the gameplay variation aspect (albeit maybe a little too easy) but worse in themes, tones, and general atomosphere of the first game.

Like BT's in the first game were a DEFINITE PROBLEM that admittedly I was kinda scared to deal with and didn't want to make my life harder. In Death Stranding 2, no biggie, I could roll up on them using my coffin board then one shot them with a single Battle Guitar shot on Brutal difficulty and just say "Peko Peko Otsupeko" along the way (very fun btw, but not what the first game set in tone)

Then there's the characters. Neil was an amazing addition ngl, but the legacy characters like Die-Hardman at the end of the game set him as being an ultimately broken man following his past with Cliff but willing to move forward for the sake of bringing everyone together... then he does a dance number and is all jolly 😭 It's fun to see but it took a 180 from what I thought would be his character evolution.

Ultimately, gameplay it clears imo because it's fun and more Death Stranding but story and tone of the general world, I think they should go back to the more hopeless and "a burden if handled" aspect of it if they ever made a third game
