I stole a vehicle in Death Stranding!
I didn't mean to. Well, I didn't do it accidentally of course, I just didn't
plan to steal it.
I didn't plan on a lot of things. In fact, whatever plan I had disappeared when they didn't fall for the decoy cargo. Suddenly there were loads of those fellows pouring out of that truck and chasing me.
I tried to take a difficult path up over a steep hill to drop down and hide behind a rock but they didn't fall for that either. So I pulled out the bola gun and started firing like a maniac. And then kicking like a maniac. All while running like a maniac.
Somehow I inadvertently ended up at the postbox so I raided it for all the lost cargo including extras that weren't part of this order and then ducked through a couple of doorways and... found the truck. Maybe the same truck, maybe another truck. But... a truck!
Should I?
Damn right I should!
Drive!
I haven't seen the tutorial yet and I'm not sure about the controls but just DRIVE!
Like a maniac!
I steered it to the river and jumped out and ran to a bridge that I didn't build and jumped across.
I saw this bridge while attempting to plan out this mission and I initially thought it was completely useless cos you can't cross it from the north as there are loads of rocks at the southern base that are too big to climb. But now I'm reconsidering and wondering if it's absolute genius cos the rocks stop the baddies driving across allowing you to jump down onto that bridge.
I don't know, but I was grateful for it anyway as I heard the big sound of their scanner pinging me again.
Keep running, Sam!
Like a maniac.
So I eventually made it to safety and then started to plan my route to deliver the stolen server. I started strolling the short path due east but there's a wiiide river there and are they building a road there? If so it doesn't look usable for me yet so I'll try and go back to the grumpy man. But can you even get back up that hill from this angle?
I tried going up the west side but I ended up at a steep bit that I couldn't climb and then as I retreated I fell and damaged the cargo.
*baby crying noises*
I also thought I saw another Distribution Centre way over there in the distance. Too far for me to get to just yet so maybe that's a later order. For now I just need to deliver this thing in the opposite direction. I'm probably gonna have to go through that camp again, aren't I? But I'm not sure how long those gun cables last and that scanner seems to be going off every few seconds as if they're searching for me. Anyway, I saved there so I'll have a think about what to do next.
On a less panicky note I have now seen some other porters.
OK, I did panic a bit at first cos I thought they were baddies coming for me but now I know that they're not I like saying Hi and waving at them as they mutter and mumble on their way past.
