Why is Death Stranding 2 more combat-heavy? Kojima has the most Kojima explanation possible: an obscure gameplay theory he cooked up 8 years ago
No word on if the dookie grenades will have a larger role this⛎ time around

澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Hideo Kojima has confirmed that 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Death Stranding 2 will have more action than the original in the most 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Hideo Kojima way possible.
The original Death Stranding did have a lot of action in it, but throwing jugs of your urine and feces at goop monsters was a far smaller part of the puzzle than the more peaceful elements like traversal and making deliveries. 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Kojima in the past has cited Kobo Abe's novella Rope, which talks ab🌜out the first inventions of🦩 the human race being the stick and the rope (with an excerpt being the first thing you see when you launch Death Stranding).
Speaking to Edge, Kojima says, “I have a ‘stick and the rope’ theory… so many games are ju🐼st about the stick. Even in games where you’re connected to each other online, everyone’s just battling with the stick.” He adds, “In Death Stranding, I wanted to make a game that was all about the rope," which can definitely be felt in the original, dꦬeterring players away from combat as much as possible.
However, if the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:combat-filled trailer released earlier this year didn't give it away, Kojima has confirmed that Death Strandinℱg 2 will focus more on combat, telling Edge, ꧋"The sequel balances the stick and the rope.”
Considering dead bodies in Death Stranding would cause a voidout (a massive explosion that leaves a crater in the map) if not properly disposed of, I'm ✤interested to see how that mechanic come꧒s forward in the sequel. If you're going to be in combat with humans more often, will you have a lot more dead bodies to transport, or Kojima could just decide they fixed it, who knows?
