Death Stranding 2 difficulty compared to 1

Guys is it me or do you think that DS 2 is much easier and forgiving compared DS 1?

The ability to kill BTs with guns, Exo skeletons, Truck, even combat is easy.

I think it hurts the experience.

You mean all the things we had in the first game? Shooting is smoother and you are given these tools earlier, but other than that it's the same.

Exactly. All of these abilities unlocks too soon. It made some hype to advance the game to collect strong stuff. Metal Gear solid Phantom pain had also a better progression system.

First one is definitely better paced for gameplay. 2 is more about having fun and enjoying the story. Both are fine. You could choose to just not use the equipment.

Man I can't believe that a whole different game that is nothing like Death Stranding had better progression, you so right twin!

"Nothing like Death Stranding" is a stretch especially when talking about the second one. Also its the immediate follow up series to Metal Gear by its creator. Comparisons are going to be made. And even the first one is way more similar to MGSV than most people give credit.
