Oh hey there. Yep, it’s me again—just diving into this chaotic swirl called Death Stranding 2. Feels a bit like jumping from an intense, non-stop drama in The Last of Us Part II (my therapy, really) into… well, who knows what.
Anyway, I’ve got Sam Porter Bridges on my mind. Weird name? Sure. But in this game, I’ve somehow grown, I dunno, attached? Maybe it’s the whole “healing the world” gig he’s on. Makes me think, can a game character give us hope or just make things feel a bit less heavy?
Played the first Death Stranding a bunch. Let me tell you, it’s like this dense cake of storytelling—layered and kinda mysterious, almost too much. But hey, sometimes a little confusion is nice. Keeps you guessing. And yes, it’s as weird as it sounds. Kojima outdid himself with this one and I’m curious (maybe anxious?) about what comes next.
The thing about Death Stranding—mixes real-life messiness with absurd fantasy. Like, human connections and, uh, extinction entities? Just wild. But the exploration of life, death, and what it all means hits home—especially now. World’s a mess, isn’t it? But these outlandish ideas give a bit of an escape while keeping you oddly grounded.
And oh, Kojima’s been redoing stuff after the pandemic hit. Rewritten with this question looming: “Should We Have Connected?” Creepy, but kinda appropriate, right? Matches my current mood—questioning, pondering, overthinking. Am I gonna find answers? No clue. Not sure Kojima’s got them either. But wandering around in his headspace sounds like just the distraction I need.
So there it is—my chaotic thoughts before diving into another (hopefully) mind-bending adventure. Oh, and happy Pride! Go game your heart out.
