Death Stranding 2 Players Discover Efficiency Penalties for Deliveries

by

The highly anticipated sequel to Death Stranding, named as such, is creating quite a buzz in the gaming community. It’s surpassing its predecessor in terms of pacing and has been hailed as a genuine PlayStation 5 exclusive by many. Previously labeled as a walking simulator, this Kojima production is no longer being so stereotyped. However, there are still plenty of deliveries to be made in this follow-up. Interestingly, players are finding out that making efficient deliveries can actually lead to penalties in the game.

Users of the game’s online community found out that grouping packages together for speedy delivery results in lower scores. However, when a player chose to deliver each package individually, making multiple trips, they ended up with a higher score.

To put it simply, Death Stranding 2 seems to penalize you when you make your deliveries more convenient – a rather unusual design choice.

We won’t try to guess what message Hideo Kojima intended for the players, but it’s unfortunate that those seeking simplicity may find themselves in a challenging situation. Nevertheless, these challenges can spark interesting discussions and touching moments, making it an engaging experience for those willing to explore everything. For those who prefer a smoother ride, it might feel like Kojima is playing a trick on them by imposing these penalties.

Despite differing opinions on optimization techniques, it appears that gaming enthusiasts worldwide are greatly appreciating the second installment of Death Stranding, finding their experience more satisfying than the original. It’s possible fans are now understanding Kojima’s vision for the first game, or tastes have evolved, but the sequel seems to be a significant step up. This might disappoint Kojima, who aimed for a more divided response, but a strong fanbase is certainly not a negative outcome.

As a devoted fan, I’m thrilled to share that I’ve just learned Death Stranding 2 is already out for PlayStation 5! If you’re wondering if it might pop up on other platforms in the upcoming year, well, given the success of its predecessor, it’s not entirely impossible. What’s truly astounding, though, is how seamlessly this game performs and loads even on the standard version of Sony’s latest console.
