> Bridges logo from DS

Ok, never played DS, just looked like a spiderweb centered around NYC area

DiFToXin t1_iycau2e wrote

it basically is. Bridges is a network of outposts with their HQ in that area

the books are collectibles that are connected to poems that describe the games a little

definitely worth looking up if you dont plan on playing the game

I honestly think of Spider-Man too, it's a web, emanating from New York... I mean come on. But it is indeed the Bridges logo from Death Stranding.

Its not though, while it is hard to tell here, if you pull up the bridges logo, where the web emanates from is visibly lower than where NYC is

Semantics lol

brycejm1991 t1_iyeab2v wrote

It's not though. NYC, in DS, was destroyed and is just a massive crater. The spot where the web starts for the logo is supposed to be capital knot city, a city built on/near the ruins of Washington DC.

Edit - shocking, you blocked me after literally giving the most childish response. Sorry that I do things differently than you and felt the need to explain my self. Get off your high horse and fuck off. (see further down thread)

Edit 2 - wtf was the point of editing that comment, you didn't say shit. Either talk to me like a normal person or stfu.

Secret_Detective3255 t1_iyeegou wrote

I mean New York City is only like 200 miles from DC, that's a pretty reasonable conclusion if someone just glanced at it without any other context. It's not like it's Moscow being mistaken for London or something.

>that's a pretty reasonable conclusion if someone just glanced at it without any other context.

Which is totally fine, I wont argue with that. Its also not the best version of that Logo. What I will argue with is someone who says semantics. In my experience, which is obviously anecdotal, people use the term "semantics" as a way of telling a person they are wrong, and ending a conversation. The person is in fact wrong, and saying semantics is asinine.

Edit - I lied, I will argue it a bit. NYC is closer to where the first ring is, than it is to the actual start point. If you dont know where NYC then it can be understandable, but NYC is that far down.

I also thought it represented the Spider-Man games only because I’ve never played Death Stranding but after you mentioned it in your first comment I searched online for “Death Stranding Bridges logo” and it’s clearly the Bridges logo. Funny that it’s straight up a spider web.

2

brycejm1991 t1_iyf8uqu wrote

>Funny that it’s straight up a spider web.

Which is why thinking its spider-man is reasonable. However given that the other covers all reasonably make sense with their associated games, the fact that the web stretches across the US, should have been a flag that that thought was wrong.

That said, I fucking loved death stranding, but they could have done something else such as Sam's, or better yet Mama's, Odradek.

Or simply just the silhouette of a baby encased in a cocoon or something. As someone who’s never played DS, every time I think of that game the first images that come to mind are the baby in a jar, Norman Reduus, the dead sea mammals from the trailers, and the goop creatures.

Godsfallen t1_iye1u00 wrote

I had an hour to play games the other night and knew if I kept going in Ragnarok I’d lose all sense of time and end up staying up late again, so I decided to start a new game in Bloodborne just to see if I could get the Blades of Mercy early and mess about with them. Needless to say, I ended losing all sense of time and ended up staying up late again

It is tho for years. It being on Game Pass was not a Sony choice as they did not publish it there. Same reason Death Stranding is on PC Game Pass.

MLB the show has been a ps exclusive for years until currently and finally being put on other platforms.

This Easter egg just simply shows some ps exclusives and ones that sony has punished such as the order 1886.

Sure can tell the people who didn’t actually read the poems as they picked them up. The text of each poem was blatantly referring to other games.

Guess I'm just dumb because even after I was told they were Playstation game references, I couldn't figure out which was which for most of them haha

lalosfire t1_iydp1h3 wrote

Their are some that are harder to discern for sure. But some are plainly obvious if you've played those games, especially because of the covers of each book. If you've played those games you should pretty easily be able to tell which is Rachet, Bloodborne, Astrobot, MLB the Show, etc. On the Bloodborne sub especially where people get that symbol tattoo'd super frequently.

alwayzbored114 t1_iydpaqc wrote

Despite nearly 100%ing the game, I also didn't know they ended up on a shelf like this! I was going purely off the text. I'll have to load back in and check it out

I actually didn't either but you can see the covers on the right side when you're reading the text.

I'd have loved it to get a sequel. It had it's problems, but they were all very fixable, and the game did a lot of things very well. One of the coolest and most imaginative settings I've seen in a game, too. A series had such potential.

I wouldn't call it rubbish, but I would have been upset if I'd bought into the marketing and preordered.

I bought it a few years after release for $20 or so and had a fun time. I beat it, put it down, and haven't touched it since, but it was a fun little excursion.

They're collectable poems, and each one is a reference to a Playstation game. For example one called "The Sunrise of Nothingness" is Horizon: Zero Dawn, while "Those Who Remain, Part the Second" is Last of Us Pt. 2.

IIRC one of Kvasir's poems basically describes a baseball game.

I wouldn't be surprised if Kvasir had some sort of interdimensional lens, or access to the Infinite Corridor from Castlevania. After all, Brokk and Sindri were able to step in and out of the Realm-Between-Realms.
