Amazing analysis as usual. We also did 2 analysis on this trailer and it was so much fun diving into it. One cool detailon "Cyborg Samurai" is that it has a baby bump, it is more noticeable if you look at the posters Kojima posted. And Yoji Shinkawa has 3D printed designs that had similar baby bumps as the cyborg. Would love to know your thoughts on that 😁 also we did also see another character with yellow boots in the background where Elle Fanning is seen eavesdropping. Keep up the amazing work btw.
Nice one ua-cam.com/video/R0ESDu7PYP8/v-deo.htmlsi=TUZzx3RHU-T_miRA
Higgs saying, "Same as it ever was," might also just be a reference to "Once in a Lifetime" by The Talking Heads. He would occasionally drop music references in the first game, the biggest one I remember being literally singing the words, "I've got the whole world in my hands" when powering up Amalie to use as a weapon. The fact that he now wields an electric guitar weapon and sings in one of the trailers further suggests they're leaning into that aspect of him more in the sequel.
Reminds me of ocelot. First he’s ocelot then he’s revolver ocelot. Slowly b ur surely molds into flat out cowboy. But began as random soldier number 4
Troy Baker confirmed this in an interview with "Fall Damage" 😂 great spot
He did confirm it in an interview where he said I thought talking heads
Lou having her Ka and Ha split and being all grown up makes sense. In the first TGA teaser we see Fragile losing Lou after the ambush and her crash, it would also make sense why Sam is so old. Perhaps a good chunk of years have passed between losing and re-discovering Lou, in a cocoon from the tar. I daresay that as those other robots/androids/cyborgs are connected to some strands before Sam engages in fight with them, so could be Lou in human form connected to her robot/cyborg/android self that saves Sam and battles Higgs.
But we see Sam with Tomorrow when his hair is brown. I think Sam may have tried to 💀 himself after he lost Lou and then Fragile stopped him and they reversed the effects.
"crazy" is what define hideo kojma , truly master of twisting people minds
These types of videos are scintillating and a masterpiece. This video is well made and deserves praise and respect.
🙏🙏

MASSIVELY underrated comment
Developers: How weird will this game be?
Kojima: Yes......
One thing I haven’t heard anyone mention about the trailer is how fragile says there’s a generous donor giving them all the things they need for the ship and then later in the video Higgs say seeing I been supplying all the fruits of this fine factory or something like that talking about the gun
It's a reference to "how Death Stranding" was created...part of the original story came from a "donation" - a generous "patron" gave Kojima part of the story to DS1 and the concept to DS2.
Elle fanning wearing a white dress and covered in black tar while she floating in the air is reference to lisa in P.T Silent Hills. Even sam says "i was there i saw her home and it was a hell hole"
"you are pretty good!"
This video is gold. ✨
Can't wait to play this. :D
Keep on keeping on! 👍🎮
Great analysis! So hyped for this. So much we don’t know. Can’t wait
This is perfect, you really opened my eyes to many things i missed
Oh man, it's so good to be able to watch another PythonSelkan analysis video! Thanks, guys!
🙏🙏
This is so good, Keep on keeping on
Awesome analysis ! Some really interesting points here, I’m really interested to see that on the beach movie now, I’d love for Kojima to just release a massive list of movie recommendations, I wrote down a few Japanese films to check out on his Criterion collection video he did recently, and I really enjoyed listening to his Podcast when I found it last year
Many thanks for the kind feedback! 😊 We hope you enjoy watching On the beach - it's a great classic and you will definitely recognize some of the inspirations behind Death Stranding.
- P&S
Bout time you dropped an analysis video , I honestly like your takes on this game
The best analysis of death stranding 2 on the beach trailer 👏
Keep on keeping on 👍👍👍
Love listening to your vids!
The video we all needed
Well done on this one, I love these theories, I also like the connection between the names Lou and Ludens, though it's quite simple
"I've been waiting for this!"
It is amazing that you can come up with your own analysis 2 months after everyone else did and have most, if not all, of the findings/ideas unique. I just hope we will all manage to survive the wait for DS2 in good health and spirit. Keep on keeping on. Take care of yourself and your loved ones. See you at the release
My hypothesis about the cigarettes are that they use tar from the beach as a sort of flavoring, resulting in a bleedover effect with the smoke and BTs. Many times throughout the first game, we deliver consumer products made from beach related materials, so its likely Drawbridge also produces their own. They might even be medicinal, like the inverse of eating an apple a day. Though I doubt they would reverse advanced aging on their own.
I can envision a gameplay moment in the sequel where you need to pull a Solid Snake and use a cigarette to detect and sneak past BTs, spotting them through it as a sort of reverse smoke screen, maybe when you're without your standard equipment.
It's worth noting rings on the right thumb symbolize willpower, strength of character, freedom of thought, and self-assertion
I heard the accent and I instantly knew this was a Maltese brother
The BT with the cars attached makes me think of a hermit crab, so I wonder if it'll use debris to shield itself from attacks?
Yeah I think you're right
Finally. Let's goooooo
You really dug deep to get this video done, well deep!
oh nice, they even hid a xenomorph
Heeeeell yea thanks!!🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤
I highly suspect Luo dies in the game and somehow, I don't think Sam's pain will get better, but clearly there will be some reason to go on. Lou is in depressingly little in the trailer. It'd be a good tragic twist and I believe would explain the robot.
I don't know where i did read this but i think kojima did say that he might do 3 death strandings
So 1. Rope, 2 stick and rope, 3 stick ?
He didn't say that so..............
I was fine with 1. Everything doesn't need endless sequels until it becomes the bad guy.
Great vid thank you master
These videos are gold
Considering the ship captain has one hand it makes me think that the boss that's just a huge hand is somehow connected to him
Outstanding work, love it!! and if it was possible you increased my hype for the game.
Regarding detail number 7, the badge is of a BT creature seen in the first game which resembles a squid summoned by Higgs in the first boss fight, it even has a chiral mask on its face like in the actual model, I doubt it has anything to do with the cat but that’s what I think, great work guys
Great analysis!
i wonder if in some kojima´s twist we get to play a little as Higgs, we see his past and he end up being a kind of tragic misunderstood figure.
19:11 This is also a Talking Heads - Once in a Lifetime reference.
excellent video man
Amazing video . Gives me a lot more to wonder about. I can’t wait to find out the truth when the game releases
I mean how is this possible, did you just drunk he entire Death Stranding ???, How can you go into such deep details man, i am amazed, really loved the video
Mgsv, OD, PT, DS, DS2 all seem to be a chrial reflection of metal gear and a lot of things relating to multiple nightmarish experiances/realities within one big simulation...
Open your eyes already...
Are you sure the only you is you...
(PT)
At 17:50 you can see Sam take off his backpack full of cargo to get ready for a fight to not damage the cargo itself! Would've been handy in the first game, but it's a good addition for the second.
28 may not be a serial number but a symbolic one, remember how bb was created? they were extracted from womb at week 28. So it's possible that BB-28 may not be the 28th creation from BB project, but the first successful one.
I'm calling the cat "Catulu" now.
I genuinely cannot wait for this game. GIVE ME MY JOB BACK!
I don't think Diane Kruger is Norman Reedus' wife.
13:08 It's clearly Gray Fox, that red eye in the middle doesn't lie.
Elle Fanning's character's name appears as Tomorrow in IMDB, but who knows if it's only to mislead.
dope video
I'm sure I'm reaching but what if it's a play on Fullmetal alchemist? A young child bonded to a suit of armor
Hope DS2 has more content. The first one was chill, but I think it needed more action spots.
As much as I like the idea of Sam being Ludens, but Lou maybe short for Luden, and we may have to prepare ourselves for a Cyberpunk reference to get Lou to the moon.
Her name was Lisa...
Just an idea here speaking from a smooth part of my brain or I’m probably just overthinking it but you know how mostly ever detail plays a part in games made by Kohima, well in that one scene where Sam puts that puppet thing on a part of his body when he was gonna put in on his buttocks I think it’s referencing that head from god of war. But what gets me thinking is he was trapped by a god to get information from with the smartest man in the realm trapped in a tree so maybe the puppet thing had the same situation in that case he had a human body and the head (the puppet body for him) is the aftermath of him being needed but too hard to get him out of his prison
My theory is Sam is facing the same fate as Cliff Unger, but is trying to find a way to prevent Lous death from happening. Fragile manipulates Sam somehow into believing this is true, and talks him back into expanding the network for this private corporation. Higgs is somehow connected with the private corporation. These are my guesses so far.
There's so many expressions from Lea Sedoux that point to me she knows more about the private corporation than she lets off in front of Sam. I feel like her betrayal is a way to help Sam move on, but from what?
Give me back my BB!
I think fannings character is lou with accelerated aging and all grown up since BBs are weird creations of science like les enfants terribles
I also think that because everytime they show us the tank it has the white strands coming from it just like elle does
That Luden is Lou (A new Lou A new Luden) Also La Li Lou Le Lo La Li Lou Le Lo🙁
Imagine?!
string controlled puttets (robots, fenning, fatih) possibly has something to do with the bad side of being connected
Peqoud was also the helicopter pilots name in Metal Gear Solid 5
lu is fighting with that robot is insane freakin insane
I am still hyped like a little fangirl for this game. I love sci-fi dystopia as well as Kojima's brilliantly mad mind.
It’s the concept of muti verse and that since sams the only one that can come back from death he can go between beaches and or worlds
Higgs is really really obsessed with Sam from before the first game, pizza delivery missions prove it as there seems to be pics of Sam and places he’s been too in the entire first game, he’s also a very gay man so prob is infatuated with Sam
the only time things would float is when a dead body changed into a BT
maybe they've been looking for the next extinction entity which might be the blonde or the one floating
You might be on to something…
@@PrestigiousConman also Higgs might just be actually be breaking the rules given bridges connections he might just be bringing the destruction himself since he was able to manipulate the black stuff hes definitely more powerful
this game does already look a lot more interesting than the first one. I really hope they take a different approach to boss design though. I was hoping for something maybe more of a Shadow Of The Colossus kind of thing and pee pee poo poo grenades. And I don't mean using a sword, but large bosses that are a puzzle to traverse to a weak point, and since traversal is like the main thing seemed like a good fit, and a good time to use ropes.
Everybody calling the big guy mechanical/cyber Samurai. Pay closer attention. There are no joints through out his body, the entirety or the armor is strapped together.
Also, while the designs and lines are very different. The Samurai's outline/silhouette does remind me a fair bit of Luden's.
Cozy can't wait. So glad there is a sequel, this is all very curious. Thought the story was complete.
The first game was one of the greatest stories every created, Kojima knows this is no longer for mass appeal and that he's now free from both Konami and needing to appeal to normies. It's so beautiful to see.
Can't wait for 2025 to play this.
So beautiful.
I love the First one but I do hope we get more Combat in this sequel.
I miss the MGS Stealth and Combat, especially MGS5.
I still to this day, after 3 playthroughs of DS1, have no idea what the fuck is going on lol...but, it was such a fascinating journey/setting. I can't wait to see what crazy stuff Kojima has in store for the second installment
How do you find all of this. Wow
5:51 That's just one of the mini-boss you can fight in the first game. Not a cat, more like a whale with tentacles
My brain is not braining
Even tho you always make very good reads ,some are just Kojima nonsense .
Back then years ago ,when DS had a trailer where people thought the black cloaked flying humans where the 7 horssemen of the apocalypse horseshit. They were just dead people. :D
Nontheless still excited about DS 2 with better andmore vaious maps.DS is still worth replaying ,wouldnt be that map issue. I feel like Ive seen all and mostly grass :/
Not yet..its not over yet!
Can’t wait for DS2 to come out
I hope same becomes a luden and maybe the earth is toast and the next game is about space somehow?
Could the captains missing arm also be a reference to metal gear solid
Will probably get the answer of what ever happened to Higgs BB??
It was the doll we kept seeing. Something the EE gave gave him to link him to her power.
One question: what’s the moral story of death stranding?
"keep on keeping on"
Human connection juxtaposed with overwhelming cosmic horror
The resilience of mankind?
Returning the world to some state of normalcy as things don’t seem to die and become horrific monsters that ruin life as we know it
I missed it when kojima used to make fun games
🤩👏
10:00 What's the name of that song?
ua-cam.com/video/Qi9ybyWvYhY/v-deo.html
Death Stranding OST - "The Severed Bond"
@@TheSufferingAngel87 Thank you.
just remeber they put kids brains in jars in Metal gear rising
Hatian kids (everyone thinks it's africa but the wierd kid with an adult voice trying to sound like a teenager said he was from Guyana which is north east of Venezeula and bellow the carabien where all the issues would need ROBOT law enforcement
i wouldn't send humans to Haiti i would sent BEAST machiens like ed209
i going to assume that DS2 is the same game but West to east and linking up europe
I'm assuming the new blond chick is actually Lou
What if there are two versions of higgs?
it's mario and luigi and its a game about existing in only a game.
15:08 is she smoking Tar? @PythonSelkan
Really hope DS2 doesn't take TOO much inspiration from On The Beach, since I'm pretty sure everyone dies and humanity gets wiped out in the end. Which would kinda make the first game pointless.
This shit is so purpously convoluted and pretentious I really just don't care anymore. It's not like Kojima HAS to do it this way to get a message across, he's literally just self-indulging in his own style because he can, dude is smeling his own farts super hard
Is the blonde girl, Sams daughter then?
I think the gameplay of DS2 will be quite different
+Action Yes Different Gameplay Core Nah
no caption???
These character models have been this good from last gen and better than 99% of ps5 games... Wtf
"I'll show you the real thing soon." I promise.

I THOUGHT I WAS THE ONLY ONE WHO NOTICED IT!
EVEN DURING THE FIRST WALKTHROUGH, I WAS EXCITED BY THIS PHRASE, AND AGAINST THE BACKGROUND OF THE FACT THAT I REMEMBERED ONE FRAME FROM THE TRAILER WHERE THE HERO WALKS AS IF ON RED STONES, I WAS SURE THAT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE GAME WE WOULD ALREADY TRAVEL TO MARS!
ALSO IN FAVOR OF THIS STORY WAS THE SYMBOL OF LUDEN HOISTING A FLAG ON THE MOON. AND I WAS QUITE SURE THAT IN THE SECOND PART WE WOULD INITIALLY GO TO THE MOON SINCE THE EARTH IS DEAD! HER STORY IS OVER AND IT'S IMPOSSIBLE TO LIVE HERE ANYMORE! I'M A LITTLE CONFUSED IF WE DO EXACTLY THE SAME THING IN THE SECOND PART, I'M A BIG FAN, BUT THIS IS EXTREMELY STUPID. TRYING TO RETURN SOMETHING THAT WILL NOT RETURN, AND "REBUILD" OR BUILD A NEW ONE WILL NOT WORK PHYSICALLY UNDER ANY CONDITIONS. THE EARTH IS DOOMED!
JUST IMAGINE :
1.THE ONLY WAY TO SAVE A LIFE IS TO FIND A NEW HOME!
2.THE MOON, THE PLANETS OF THE SOLAR SYSTEM, PROBABLY ALSO ONCE SUFFERED EXTINCTION AND ARE UNSUITABLE FOR SETTLEMENT.
3.WE HAVE TO GO TO OTHER GALAXIES AND FIND LIFE THERE !
4.AND THE ANSWERS TO THE QUESTIONS:
5.THE FERMI PARADOX, THE GREAT FILTER
And another one
Have we been in a simulation all this time?
how many playable characters
I have a feeling Sam’s past is going to play a big role in this. By that I mean his dead wife and dead daughter who they were gonna name lou…
Yoko Taro is the one and only Legendary creator and producer. Kojima is a fool brainwashed by Hollywood dream. Everything about him is superficially made up.
if thats the case, u might want to put araki jojo on that list of hollywood brainwash too. Theres inheritelly nothing bad about kojima, hes like quentin tarantino, a visionaire in the hollywood scene who never got proper education about film making. Yoko taro is a great videogame director, probably the only director in the videogame scene that does philosphical pathway too weirdly.
The creator of JJBA has nothing to do with Hollywood stuff. His work is all about masculinity, more specifically mythology of Greek, Mayan, Arab also Bodybuilding with the pose of Greek statue. But Kojima has become more and more boring. And the people are highlighting him none other than the western producers itself to keep western gaming business alive. Talk about Star War Outlast, Dustborn, Marvel Comic, DC Comic games 🤣. Tbh very few wannabe indie devs made thorough the barriers of western crap.
On the other hand DMC5, Nier Automata, Black Myth Wukong? Mixture of Anime and realistic graphics that steal fans heart and won the game of the year.
People are understanding Kojima crap gradually. Soon he'll fall apart for his boring Hollywood dreams.
@@exonphase I’d give you a pass since you’re a YOKO Taro stan, but it seems like you haven’t gotten far enough into JoJo to make comments. Masculinity? Nah, Araki ditched that since parts 3 and 5. Nowadays, it’s just vogue and Paul Gauguin for the art style. As for actual Western media, Araki just made a Breaking Bad reference in his latest work, and Jotaro Kujo is based on Clint Eastwood, lmao. I don’t know if your pride is through the roof, but there’s nothing inherently wrong with being inspired by Hollywood, the cornerstone of our entertainment industry. All of Araki’s new Stand ideas come from Western music. Also, as a Nier stan, let me clue you in: when you only reference games like Nier: Automata (2017), DMC 5, and Wukong, I can smell that you haven’t touched Replicant, Gestalt, or even Drag-On Dragoon. Stop hating on Western stuff most of the philosophical themes in Nier itself come from Emil Cioran, a Romanian philosopher. “Anime style + realistic graphic” don’t make me laugh what are you 12, stop being a Gooner on rule34 and play more nier if you want to defend YOKO taro name
@@francisn.4051 Is this the best come back you got 😂😂😂. Talk about Nier Replicants, Drakengard, Medieval Era has nothing to do with Hollywood stuff you little . Unlike you, i didn't brought the JJBA reference in the first place where it still holds masculinity, just compre Part 9 to the other author's manga already. Making deals with back doors(Sony), bringing Hollywood producers, Music Artist and Actress, Kojima is filled with Hollywood drugs, making everything goofy ahhh. I think he should reconsider chosing Jack Black and Jordan Peele for his next DS3. Who knows, Hollywood lovers might just cry seeing this. Fun fact is his works are not very popular in Japan 😁. He is falling soon, mark my words.
