It was actually way easier at a certain point as the game forces you to walk at a snail's pace.
Even then, just hold L2 and R2 and you're set. The balance mechanic is absolutely trivial.

Played the first three hours of the game this morning, and really enjoyed what I experienced. The only thing I don't really care for are the BTs. I enjoy stealth in games, but when I can't really see what I'm hiding from it gets annoying.
Are there like a lot of climbing options in the game? The actual climbing has seemed like the most disappointing part from what I saw on stream. The environment just doesn't look fun to interact with and climb and there seems to not be many options unless you break out a rope or ladder (which led to interesting decisions but not interesting moment to moment gameplay).
That's why they push preorders so hard. That's what they'll say anyways "should've pre-ordered!"
I was able to play for a bit just before heading off to work, really enjoyed what little I got to play, the controls feel great, offloading cargo and carrying stuff in your hands felt intuitive, also the image quality in the real-time cutscenes are off the charts. Can't wait to dive back in later tonight.
I'm not sure. Seems like it's ladder/rope oriented to a certain extent.
Not a glossary, but the interviews section in the Data sub-menu explains a lot of the lore and facts in detail. You'll get new files as you progress.
installing right now

lady at Best Buy told me someone else came looking for their preorder and they didn't have any more, so she was surprised they still had mine

Man does Norman Reedus not understand to much monster is bad for you? Games going to end with him toppling over having a heart attack I swear 😂
The reviewers were playing with hundreds of people, and the social system seems to "cap" the amount of peoples stuff in your world, so they definitely got the full experience.
I've got my ass saved a couple times thx to signs posted, ladders placed and ropes so yea it def helps. Doubt it really changes anything tho it doesn't add enough for the core gameplay to change ya mind to much
I believe it instances you in with up to 100 people and their stuff so I assume there were more than 100 people playing the game so likely reviewers were seeing and using each others stuff. Specifically the GB videos showed some stuff that can only really be built by a large number of players contributing.
try loading up 12 feet of objets on your back in the game and then running!
What's with the Monster partnership, did they strike a promotion deal or something?
So the things you're carrying in your hands doesn't affect your weight limit/balance?
I believe things in your hands won't be damaged if you fall.
Yes. There is also an ad for an AMC show directly in the game.
They do, but they're not all piling the equilibrium up on your back -- having a heavy thing in each hand is a _lot_ easier to control than two heavy things at the top of the stack on your back (at least so far, early on)
Shocking but I actually had fun with what I played? I was beyond bored by the gameplay footage I've seen before actually playing the game.
I think I ''get'' the gameplay now, this a game about traversing mixed and uneven terrain, it's a game about being cautious, perceptive and methodical.
If you see a rock in front of you, you shouldn't try walk over it, and if you expect to do so like you did in Skyrim etc. then you will only make the gameplay extremely janky and frustrating.
I fucking hate ''walking simulators'' but this one....I find it engaging and immersive.
The walking itself is a gameplay system with relatively deep mechanics compared to most games and I quite like that.
People didn't like walking simulators because walking isn't fun in video games, they are usually very dumb down and one dimensional, most of the time you just push left stick forward or hold W and that's about it, no wonder people didn't like walking in games. I think DS took an interesting approach to try making it a lot more engaging and grounded.

What HDR luminosity have people set on LG series 7 OLEDS. Thought I'd get it right before fully starting.
should I put lost cargo in the mailbox things? Or is it more worth it to just walk stuff all the way back?
It's the real walking simulation experience, or more like trekking simulation.
Alright, that makes sense (kinda). Guess holding more valuable cargo in your hands is a good idea then.
I'll see if the game gets more complex later on with that stuff, but yeah...what the heck were people talking about?
I haven't fallen over once yet, and a few reviews said that this is a constant struggle at the start, but it's really not.
Maybe they're struggling with the weight distribution mechanics
My copy arrived way earlier than it originally showed! :D
Gonna be playing this all weekend. Also, holy shit the CE is way bigger than I expected.

The tracking map shows them a few deliveries away, it has been like this for ages :@
Something just happened that seemed to telegraph a plot point way ahead of time. I read that reveals were pretty obvious, if this one is supposed to have some kind of weight behind it I'll be disappointed...
I don't want to say anything as I don't want it confirmed or denied. I'll refer back to this post if it pans out...

hard seems pretty easy to me and according to reviewer impressions, so if you aren't sure you should go for it.
Steam listing is up
Not EGS exclusive like people speculated. Probably thread worthy.
EDIT: beaten
