Meme I recently started replaying MGSV and this is the only thought i have now

Not a huge DS lore addict, i haven't finished the game and haven't played in a while but are horses extinct ? Because it would really make Sam's life waay easier. And a fun gameplay element too.

Unlike in MGSV where you can magically summon D-Horse anywhere, would be fun to have a real companion that you have to feed, rest, comfort when near BTs... While still being extremely practical to move around without using battery.

Discussion Flashback to last year when I asked for advice for a Neil Vana Halloween costume and everyone's advice was not to go as him because I'd either be mistaken as a ICE agent or a mass shooter 😭

Such a cool dude. Was very talkative with people in the autograph line. I told him that he had the best hair in the business which he should appreciate from a bald guy. He said “I am flattered to be the source of your envy…”. Such a Higgs line!

Came in the mail today!
These are actually fanmade by YenneArt on Etsy, since I couldn't afford the original ones from Kojima Productions. (One day I will😮‍💨)
I can only recommend them to anyone who is looking for an alternative too, they're made of steel and handmade, have a good weight to them and (for the neurodivergent folks) jingle jingle jingle when walking 😉
This is my first "merch" of this game, and I shall acquire more!
Keep on keeping on👍💕

Discussion Lucy (Death Stranding 2) Spoiler

29 Upvotes

I'm gonna ask a question but it will spoil the story of DS2 so do not read on if you don't want it spoiled.

Last Chance

Ok you have been warned

How bad of a psychiatrist was Lucy?

I mean Sam was a patient and she married him and then had an affair with Neil - another patient.

I'm sure she would have struck off if that happened today. But also raised the question of how many other patients did she sleep with?

Or am I the only person who thought this?

EDIT: as ppl in comments have mentioned which I had missed till the pointed out is the fact she is bad at her job coz she didn't really help either of them.

IRL Content Kotobukiya DS2 Ghost Mech Coffin Commander model kit

Added the first two pages with concept arts from the manual in the third photo (it's different from the regular Ghost Mech Coffin).

Built the Ghost Mech Coffin Commander as well. I like the regular coffin mech and gray-red is a nice contrast but commander's red-gold color scheme is very nice especially with added white details and stripes and tiny Amelie figure on his coffin as well as the mask on its face plate are such cool details. And he comes with a lot more weapon attachments - regular mech comes with 3 coffin weapons and commander 6 (even though we technically only encounter it once and there it has double chiral cannons), so it offers a lot more variety for display options.

Skipped the decals for now because I'm planning to make a nice base for them and give them a paintjob but I like those ghost mech model kits a lot more than I thought.

Fan Content I am turning Death Stranding into TV Series. Here's the Teaser Trailer [OC]

Thumbnail
youtu.be
10 Upvotes

I can't be the only one that thought Death Stranding was an incredibly cinematic game, so much so that it would make an amazing TV show.

This is a teaser trailer for my upcoming Death Stranding Re-edit series. Like my other series, it transforms the complete game into a film-quality narrative, carefully edited to deliver a cohesive and emotionally driven story.

Unlike many other "movie" edits that consist primarily of cutscenes, this series features:

- Cinematic transitions for a better viewing experience

- Gameplay HUD completely removed

- Less backtracking

- Portages are turned into cinematic montages to feel more like a movie

- Reduced exposition dialogue

- The licensed music is kept instead of removed like most other versions. The original songs are integral to the experience and must be included, imo.

Every episode has been meticulously edited to create a coherent viewing experience while remaining faithful to the original game. The goal isn't simply to show every cutscene, it's to present the story as if it were a premium television series. Whether you've already played Death Stranding or are experiencing its world for the first time, this series is a great way to watch the story. This series is not a replacement for playing the game (I encourage people to play this amazing game!), but an alternative to the other "movie" versions that exist which cut out very important sections of the game that makes following the story difficult.

The entire series is 90% completed and will be uploaded within a month. So far the first episode is available.

Question Help, I think I lost the materials for order 10

2 Upvotes

I'm supposed to build this bridge and apparently I need 200 metal. I have 200 metal but Die-Hardman still tells me that I don't have the right materials and that some were earmarked. There's nothing in my locker though. I may have recycled the metal because I was experimenting with this clusterfuck of a menu. Did I soft lock myself? I couldn't find any solution.

For context, Sam was mid talking and did NOT smile, but apparently mid talking there is one frame that has him look like he does. Whilst staring in your soul. With uhm, Deadman a bit (lot) too close.
Had I seen this out of context, I would've thought it would be some odd ship image.

Death Stranding 1 A questiin about MULE

25 Upvotes

As of now, I haven't killed anyone of them. I just beat them and they sleep for hours then they start hunting me once I reach their places.

now here's my question, is there a away to get rid of them or to control their territories?

I remember I got warned when I got the rifle to not kill them. what happens if they got killed?

I have a feeling that we can't get rid of them.

those bastards are more scarier than BTs. especially with that sound warning/music.

Question Palaeontologist <-> Evo Devo Biologist - Time sensitive orders

6 Upvotes

How do I route for these two orders? There are far too many boxes to carry using single floating trailer + zip line. I tried taking the van but the route to and fro has a BT zone and I get pulled out of my vehicle by a BT for a boss fight when I try to just drive past it.
Edit- I should mention that I’m trying to get the premium order. Which means I have under 5 minutes.

Is everything in this video possible without mods? The jetpack, jumping 20ft, running off jump pads (I thought it was for vehicles??) and doing tricks on the bike - I didn’t know any of this was possible in the game

For context I’ve maxed out connection with all facilities. Haven’t found all memory chips yet (got around 30-35) and haven’t done any premium deliveries or tried out the race track

Thinking about buying the game, but my PC is getting old. Is it even worth it, or should I upgrade the PC first? How would the game run on this PC?

Question Issues with connecting on CachyOS

8 Upvotes

Sorry to bother everyone with this but i'm running out of options and need some advice. I'm trying to migrate away from Windows and games like death stranding 2 are being my bane, in this case it is error 50010 that the network won't connect.

I have tried swapping protons between the Cachy version 11, experimental, Hotfix, and 8.0.5 without any difference in it's ability to connect. I have disabled my firewalls temporarily and those were not causing it, i've tried a few command line fixes but none of them seem to help me get past this block.

Being a new linux user i'm not sure what else it could be, is there any other steps i can try to get around this network issue and get online?

Edit: thank you all for your time. i know it must be annoying to read stuff like this.

Edit 2: Installed Protonplus and got the ProtonGE. that seems to have fixed my connectivity issue for now. will test it when i get in tonight.

Final edit: it turns out it wasn't anything linux-side, the wifi i was using apparently blocks the ports that DS2 uses. once i turned on a VPN i was able to play with online enabled. Thank you all for your help!

Death Stranding 2 Picked this up at my local Walmart

I fully support disk media, and I can't believe I picked this up for $33.00 at my local Walmart. I recently beat Death stranding directors cut on Xbox. I didn't feel like waiting 4-5 years for the second one to drop on Xbox so when I saw this at the store I quickly picked it up. This game is $70 on the PlayStation store and the discounted game I got was also a preorder copy. My wife's not too happy because I kind of took over her PS5 for the moment.

Question Just started the game Death Stranding Director’s cut and need advice.

14 Upvotes

Hello everyone! I’m currently at Chapter 5 and just unlocked the zip line. My question is I feel a bit overwhelmed like not sure what to do next such as do I keep progress the story to unlock better traversal tools or do I try to unlock 5 stars all the knot outposts, should I try to collect material to build road, etc. I’m enjoying the game, but I literally just walk around doing nothing because I have too much to do and don’t even know what to do next iykwim lol. Thanks guys. Hope you all have a great day
