As a diehard(man) Death Stranding fan, I gotta say the boss fights were easily the worst part of the game. I always turn the difficulty up to maximum when I'm doing a new playthrough because the game just feels more impactful and fun when there's an actual sense of danger, but it goes straight down to easy mode whenever a boss comes out cause I am not dealing with that lol
While I'll definitely be doing the bossfights the first time around in DS2 this feature will probably save my future playthroughs. It's just always nice to see more options for letting players engage with the game in the ways they want to.
I've been literally at the end of the game (right before the end segment, which is very long from what I understand) for like 2 years.
I really enjoyed the game, but wasn't a huge fan of the times where they took you out of the main gameplay loop for some story shit that, let's be honest, is barely coherent. Which is why I haven't started the final segment.
I'll have to do it before the sequel comes out I guess... How long should I expect that final segment to be? Movie-length?
Yeah I hated all the time warp boss fights especially. I gave up on the game on the last trip back to the beginning area. I LOVED the side quests and general gameplay loop but whenever the main quest came up I was bored out of my mind. I think I would have enjoyed the game more if it was just a sandbox.
