Combat looks greatly improved.
Sliding into cover, tons of new enemy types (large and small), and Higgs seems to be a much bigger factor with his enemy crew (cult?)

The the still needs tedium to a degree though, part of the enjoyment of building the world is experiencing how difficult it is before you connect/build it
With all the weather and destruction systems it seems the traversal will be a lot more interesting too

And now I'm forced to do something I thought I'd never do: mute Kojima on X lol. Posting stuff about the actors is one thing, posting spoilery screenshots is another, the less I see about this game going into it the better. As I've been saying since last year: GOTY incoming, can't wait, a lot of motherfuckers are going to kiss the ring, Ko-ji-maaaaaaaaa!

Well said… not sure younger generations have been educated to appreciate that though :/.

Must have been the childhood trauma of going from MGS to MGS2. Felt like from weird and cool it went just full weird (I hated some characters/plot developements). Same goes for MGS3-4. I don't like 4. Guess I'm the weird one xD
II must admit this new weirdness is looking really cool.

Is that the same when watching a movie or TV show? You only see the actors?

In Movies and TV shows you just watching while in games you are actively controlling the character and interacting with world, there is a big difference between this two medium.

Or is it just one of Phil's balls in my throat?
Popped in some Death Stranding DC. Kinda forgot just how floaty the controls are. Hopefully the sequel tightens them up a bit.
And separate Audio controls for each element like music etc. Kinda surprised that kind of oversight was left.

Got burned on the first one, probably won't pick this up. Really wish Kojima had done something else.

Well he’s not against catering to fan feedback. One of their talking points is more action this time around if that’s what you’re looking for.
It’s interesting because Kojima does talk about “betraying your audience” and he certainly does that, as we saw with the Raiden swap in MGS2.
At the same time, he’ll talk about implanting changes according to fan feedback and said the reason he made a AAA game right after opening Kojima Productions was because it’s what fans expected.
Maybe the idea is to know when to subvert and when to reel it in.

More action would be nice but my main issue with the first game wasn't really the gameplay (though I did not like the gameplay), it's that the story was just bad. Huge narrative step down from even MGS5, to say nothing of MGS2-3.
In this video, she had a good analysis and opinion about DS2 and very familiar with the series.
While this video, from another vlogger has a much deeper dive and analysis of DS2 and also the DS series.
This videos are very helpful to really appreciate and understand the series.

Real artists fuck over their audience. It is what distuingishes art from entertainment.

Interesting analysis for the most part, but the weird detour into blaming X for corrupting the public square was /facepalm.

Currently playing Director's Cut on Steam for the first time (played the original on PS4) and noticed I'm getting a lot of likes, so I was curious to see how many people are playing right now. Turns out it broke all-time CCU a few hours ago, nearly 3 years after release. Previous high was 2 years ago.

I just need some confirmation of the PC version and how long it is exclusive to PS.
If its 6 months I can wait but if its going to be a year or so I may need to buy it on PS5. I just don't want to buy a Pro for one game.

The first game was like 9 month so its likley to be something in between of your range.

If you're getting GTA VI aswell it'll be worth it.

The first game was also not published by Sony on PC, which is less likely this time around.
Still, just a bit over a year later, but not before that.

Why do you even own a ps5? Just wait for pc if its that much of an issue.
Best guess based on previous timelines is 1 year or more
Personally I wouldn’t wait if I had both a pc and ps5. It should be highly optimized for ps5
The trailer was running on base ps5. Pro isn’t mandatory here though will be improved

Gonna try the first game for the 6th time and hope I stay interested past 4 hours. Wish me luck.

Push through it and don’t rush, enjoy the journey, enjoy getting new gadgets, enjoy connecting the world, and enjoy the batshit insanity juxtaposed with the gorgeous isolation and serenity

Hype can make people do weird things.
This is why am against good trailers that don’t represent experience of playing the game.
Devs should just release a 5 min uncut gameplay video and be done with it.

The first three chapters are very slow-paced. Things really improve from Chapter 5 on, after you learn to build ziplines.

Why not both. Anyway I've preordered the Deluxe edition. Can't wait.

The game get better when you can ignore most of the core gameplay mechanics must be the worst compliment ever
Funny because it's true.

IIRC it's only exclusive to the PS Store. But I would imagine a store like Gamestop would get them too?
So far not sold out yet. I may cave in and get one, buy my cc is at home for this kind of purchase.
Edit: lol there's actually a petition to demand physical copies in Sony games:

I don't really think DS is a game you'll finally enjoy after 15-20hrs. It's either you gel with the gameplay loop or you don't. I find it incredibly soothing. It's the only game where I can throw on a podcast and just mindlessly enjoy delivering packages. I do a lot of long distance backpack hiking and it reminds me of that, in video game form
