reminder that Death Stranding is L I T E R A L L Y a walking sim
>deliveries are loaded on your back, adding weight and taking up space >each equipment you bring (e.g. ladder case) adds additional weight and space >the heavier your load, the slower you can change your velocity/direction without losing balance >your center of mass may also change based on the space taken up, giving each movement direction different safe max values >exceeding these maximum values causes you to fall over >this includes maintaining balance while swimming >when your backpack collides with the ground, equipment is knocked off >enemy attacks also knock equipment pieces off your back >if you don't risk your other equipment trying to go back and pick it up during combat, it's gone forever >porter drones take a load off, but have limited mobility and are easily captured/destroyed >porter drones are also at the mercy of the physical environment (seen slipping off a cliff in one trailer) >if you lost some equipment you need to get around, good fucking luck, better find another way around without losing even more equipment in the process
>*whistles for magic motorcycle* >autowalks on road to quest marker >*Pinwheel vision activates* >"Mhmm....giant slash marks all over the victim....a BT™, gotta be" >"Come on, fetus" >*follows pinwheel* >guys in BT™ costumes appear >"OY BLOODY GHOST SOUNDS" >"President of jack shit" ALALALALA but on cello *sets guys on fire and they stumble and recover immediately, does a cinematic walk and cuts guys in half" >"Mhmm.... Hazmats™ pretending to be BTs™......better tell the post office head about this" >"Come on, fetus" >*autowalks on road back to village* >"HEY FUCKIN FUCK CUNT DELIVERY BOY, WHAT ABOUT THE SHIPPING LABEL WE PAID YA FOR YA FUCKIN FUCKING CUNT?" >"Just some bastards posing as BTs™, here's proof *shows ladder*" >"HEY BRIDGER, HERE'S YA REWARD THE WHOLE POST OFFICE CHIPPED IN" >"Busting up BTs" Complete AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH >10 packages received

Cooper Thomas
even a walking sim can be fun if done correctly, you're not just walking, you also have to manage everything else
Oliver Harris
You people should realize walking is much more fun in real life
