From GameWatcher: "Among the many impressive aspects of Death Stranding was its soundtrack, which featured a mix of Kojima's favorite tunes and original compositions from artists like Bring Me The Horizon and Chvrches.
Following their recent appearance on Hideo Kojima's Brain Structure podcast on Spotify, there has been speculation about Chvrches' involvement in Death Stranding 2. In a chat with NME, Martin Doherty, the band's synth player, responded to these rumors."
Hideo Kojima has a unique way of designing games, which makes it easy to predict one aspect that will show up in Death Stranding 2.
With Death Stranding 2, Kojima could fully realize the potential of a strand type game and how it could be one of the biggest releases of the generation.
I really enjoyed the original.
What's great about Kojima is that he consistently learns how to improve upon his prior work. People really only disagree on the narrative quality between titles, but in terms of gameplay? Kohima is an absolute beast at one-upping himself. If we look at Metal Gear Solid, it's really hard to dispute V has the best gameplay, but the worst narrative (in my opinion). Generally, your favorite MGS game comes down to balance between narrative and gameplay—objective and subjective elements. Death Stranding was something new and the gameplay was really his first crack at it. I have great faith that we're going to get that thoughtful introspection that leads to magic.
So even if you didn't like the gameplay of the first, I think you'll be warmer on the sequel. Will it be enough? Everyone's different, but this one seems to be more offensive.
Ahmed from eXputer: "With the sequel on the way, Death Stranding 2 has a few things it could improve to build upon its predecessor."
I’d like to see higher odds for your friends’ structures and stashes appearing. There were times I wanted to gift my goodies to specific ppl, but couldn’t.
