New Death Stranding Images Show How Sam Massages His Sore Shoulders While Resting

Today Hideo Kojima posted even more images of his upcoming game Death Stranding.

The images released today showcase an interesting little detail that well underlines the fatigue that Sam feels while walking alone across plains and mountain passes in order to reach his destinations.

Are we gonna get an article about how the main character picks his nose next?
I'm excited for Death Stranding but this is getting stupid.

[Abnor_Mal]

Came here to say something similar.

[Abriael]

As a matter of fact, if Kojima puts a nose-picking animation in the game, you can bet your full monthly wage that you're gonna get an article.

Nose-picking would be more noteworthy than this. It's funnier and I've yet to see a character pick while idled or in any situation.

Now I kinda want Sam to pick.

Well... like the article says it "underlines the fatigue" he got from walking, and walking, and walking...

[DaDrunkenJester]

Aaaaand he will walk 500 miles, and he will walk 500 more... but first he will need to make multiple rest stops.

[porkChop]

It's ridiculous. Pretty much every modern game has little animations and details like this. Are journos really so starved for content that this needs its own article? This realistically should have just been a mention in the final review, if anything at all.

[DaDrunkenJester]

Right? Stationary animations have been a thing since almost forever Haha

[SyntheticForm]

"How he massages his sore shoulders when resting" - yeah it's gotten out of hand.

Gotta love how kojima pisses xbots off😂

[Battlestar23]

True.

[Kabaneri]

The game is possibly coming to PC and MGS has been multiplat for years so why would Xbox fans be pissed off about a character rubbing his shoulders in a Kojima game?

[Srhalo]

That's a good question, you should ask them.

[MasterCornholio]

MGS is owned by Konami though not Kojima Productions. We have to wait and see if it becomes a multiplatform title but since it's using Guerilla Games engine there's some doubt over that.

With that said the game will definitely be an exclusive but it won't come to other platforms unless Sony allows it.

[bluefox755]

Xbox fans "prefer" not to play on PC, because reasons.

[Shezgear]

By looking at the comments. What do you guys expect really?? That he will show full trailers with explosions every day? He shows that he is testing with single screenshots. And we have also seen lots of trailers with gameplay. Last time was like 2 weeks ago

[MasterCornholio]

Im confused, how is he pissing off Xbox fans with those pictures?

[sin7279]

Yup😈

[Battlestar23]

I can't wait for this game it's going to be great. I even have the €200 collector's edition pre-ordered.

[DaDrunkenJester]

So basically more sitting around. Is there really going to be a fatigue stat where you'll need to keep resting all the time? That's he shows off in these pics is sitting around and resting.

[theshredded]

Damn this game is something else

[PaleMoonDeath]

Hm.. it'd be nice if he teased more interesting things like combat or that entities that lurk DS, just seeing him chilling was cool but c'mon man, whatever happened to the MGS kind of teasing etc? good ol' days :(

[DaDrunkenJester]

That's what I'm saying. The pics every day are nice, but it's always the same thing. Maybe a different location here and there, but it's always just sitting in an open area with nothing going on.

Rest Stranding

[MetalGearAlex]

twinfinite needs to stop posting every single tweet pic about Sam. This is not conducive to the excitement but is becoming annoying clickbait probably to get the site (twinfinite) views and ad revenue. Please stop

[TheHateTheyGive]

If we can post phil making empty xbox promises articles then i see no problem with the constant death stranding articles.
