They mention this in the story. Something about the high failure rate of drones, as well as their inability to adapt to situations.
Also something about the emotional impact of using drones vs humans.
in addition to what transistor said i believe the game talks about how the human porter is an important symbol to the objectives of bridges i.e. forming a web of connection. showing a human being undertaking the task is meant to inspire people to join more or less.
No? In lots of science fiction there are scenarios where humans are still used because the machines can't adequately adapt like a human can.
i'm not implying it's like perfect but it's an interesting way of exploring the very real issue of social isolation as a result of environmental and technological factors. if you don't like the game that's fine but let's not pretend it's totally brainless on the exploration of its themes. the human element vs. technology is also explored in the dune series if you're familiar with that and probably better than death stranding. it's a general sci-fi thing really
The problem is the mules hijacking the robots and stealing the shipments.
a piece of speculative fiction is clearly not going to win against your lack of ability to suspend disbelief so i don't know why you expect anyone to like convince you if you're going to come at it like that.
The game part is fantastic. I don't know if he needs any help there. Many said the same thing for MGSV, that it was one the best playing open world games they've played.
there are of course a few in-game plot conceits to answer that poster's questions but i think overall the issue is they don't want to engage with the game on the terms and rules of its sci-fi universe. we can try to explain the logic but if they are just going to not accept or allow death stranding to explain itself and basically breathe then we're just going to go in circles lol.
Also, why didn't the eagles drop the ring in Mount Doom?
i like using the cars for certain situations but there should be more of a risk/reward element to it. don't know how it would be implemented. i agree that the combat stuff feels pointless ultimately, none of my fondness for the game stems from punching mules or shooting BTs with pee lol.
That's not even remotely true and it's painfully moronic to say so. Robots dancing predetermined movies in a controlled environment is in no way comparable to what the bots have to do in the fictional world of DS. Ignoring the BT and Mules, just the complex terrains that are ever-morphing because of timefall would make it different.
Did you play the game or did you just watch the cutscene because it's a memeable line?
yeah watching this guy really unravel as we go makes me think he just watched the game on youtube and now wants to play pretend as a disaffected gamer
I assume right now it runs just like on the Pro right? Higher resolution and that's it?
