The Worst Parts Of Death Stranding The Sequel Doesn't Need

At its very foundation, The Last of Us is something of a survival title, giving players limited resources to assist them on their journey. It's built around a world that is inherently threatening, and in some cases, the best course of action is to painstakingly creep through an entire section of the game, heart pounding, trying desperately to avoid making a sound. It's one of the scariest post-apocalyptic games without a doubt, but it's also a beautiful and haunting experien


Through video games, creators have been able to make commentary on society and various human experiences, allowing gamers to understand more about their fellow gamers and the world around them. This is the case with Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice , which was developed by Ninja Theory and released in 2017. The game features a woman named Senua who goes on a journey to rescue her dead lover's soul. She is plagued by voices of Furies in her head, and she sees the world differently, which can be quite frightening for her at times. However, it never stops her from achieving her goals. Many of Senua's experiences resemble psychosis, and the developers went to great lengths to ensure accuracy. Consequently, by cleverly stimulating the senses, the game weaves a story that both educates and enterta


While Death Stranding will always have its fans that love the game for what it is, a sequel could still stand to improve on its strand-type formula. These are just a few of the worst things about the original Death Stranding that could stand to be improved. It's still very early, with plenty of time for **Death Stranding 2 ** to learn from the mistakes of what came bef


In a weird bit of worldbuilding, Kojima decided to include product placement in his Death Stranding universe. The world may be a post-apocalyptic wasteland, but at least Monster Energy drinks still exist. It's nonsensical and doesn't make sense even for those sold on the absurd premise that is the rest of the game. For a AAA game, the choice to include Monster Energy or have Sam mention Ride with Norman Reedus is an odd one and takes players out of the experience, especially when Kojima took the time to make an entire soundtrack of in-universe music that includes new tracks by known singers. Death Stranding 's Director's Cut removed Monster from the game, so it may be that Kojima saw this as w


It would be an exhausting task to cover Troy Baker 's entire career, and the discussed roles represent just the highlights. Through Troy, numerous video game characters have had life breathed into them and have become memorable figures in gaming history. Despite the extensive amount of work he has done in the realm of video games, it seems as though he has no plans to stop any time soon. On social media, Troy has posted images of himself and Roger Clarke, who plays Arthur Morgan in Red Dead Redemption 2 . Although details on the project they are working on have yet to reach the public, anything involving the two industry veterans is sure to be excit


Death Stranding 's vehicles are very clunky and handle very poorly even on straight, even terrain. The vehicles need to be revamped at the least if not removed entirely. Despite often being the best choice for transporting packages, driving vehicles is a chore especially when there are far more interesting and innovative methods of travel. The slingshot, zipline, and robot sled are unique methods of transportation design and are often faster and more fun to use than vehicles. These types of movement should be more encouraged in a Death Stranding sequel. Creating differed, uneven terrain would lend well to this and would cause players to lean more heavily into Death Stranding 2 Lore Stranding 's multiplayer social features as players explore and create new transportation netwo


Other notable roles Troy has under his belt include Simon in Spider-Man Miles Morales , Bruce Banner in Avengers , Magni in God of War (2018), and Delsin in Infamous Second Son . His good work has earned him several nominations and awards in the gaming world. These include a NAVGTR Award for Lead Performance in a Comedy for his Rhys in Tales from the Borderlands , a BTVA Voice Acting Award for Voice Actor of the Year, and both a VGX Award for Best Voice Actor and a NAVGTR Award for Lead Performance in a Drama for his work in The Last of


An odd choice of the original was that it was set during an eternal day for no real reason. It was wonderful, still, but unusual. Having the day actually progress offers up so many opportunities. The darkness of night might make it difficult to move about, and enemy patrols could be different. Maybe other players could even build lights to guide your p


Since their rudimentary beginnings in the 1950s, video games have rapidly morphed from mere tools of amusement to complex art forms capable of telling compelling narratives. The eighth generation of gaming further advanced the medium by utilizing modern technology to enhance realism and consequently deliver more gripping and believable stories. This has been enabled, for example, by improved graphics and motion capture technology that have helped create more realistic character models capable of conveying convincing emoti
