Hoping for an upgrade path for my PS4 disk copy.

Never finished it and would like to go back.

I'm not sure this really means anything for PC... Couldn't they just patch the new content in? Meanwhile this (assumedly) is a new retail release

Looking forward to hearing about the upgrades and hopefully wanting to play through again. Already gave me 60ish hours on PS4.

Man, my body wasn't ready for a full length movie at the end so my opinion on the game was heavily based on how it left me vs. everything that led to it.

But the whole experience never left me, especially during the most difficult months of pandemic, so I really think it is a special, top of the class game, with all of its quirks and highs and lows.

I really hope there's an upgrade path. I stopped long ago because I figured I would wait for a 60fps ps5 upgrade of sorts

btw description is exactly the same as previous rating except for this one newly added line:

"In some stages, players can perform stealth takedowns of enemies (e.g., strangling characters from behind)."

I haven't played this yet, only watched my wife play it some. If this is a free upgrade, I'll finally check the game out

This is a new SKU for the game which is why it was rated for PS5. PC might just get it as a DLC which iam not sure if gets rated or not so this director's cut thing on PC could just be a simple STEAM Bundle with the base game and DLC packed in.

So i don't think this rating means much in terms of exclusivity.

I always wanted a DS sequel from a gameplay sense, but the story wraps up so conclusively it wouldn't make sense. So a souped-up re-release is kind of an ideal scenario imo. Excited to see what they add.

This is already a thing in the original game. Not sure why they added that.

Remember that the PlayStation version was published by Sony and the PC version was published by 505. So two different publishers will be submitting the game separately. Also, knowing Sony, you can never rule out it being an exclusive or timed-exclusive until it's available to purchase.

Are you sure? I think you can stealth takedown mules. I just went to their camp without cargo and used to clear out for materials.
That's not new at all. You can stealth takedown mules with your cord.
In DS you just tie your enemies in a non-lethal way, since this is an addition to the rating I imagine it's referring to

will try it out for the (hopefully, great) dual sense implementation.

but only if it's a free upgrade.

I started playing it recently on steam and stopped because of this announcement, now I'm wondering if I should continue. Hard to believe that the PC version won't be updated eventually.

The haptics make it feel like you're actually holding Sam's penis while he takes a piss in addition to the fact you can use gyro aim to control his stream with extreme precision. Just wait till you see how the triggers fight you when it's time to pass a kidney stone.

Awesome.

Definitely been wanting to replay this, going to have to wait for the PC version though.

So this is the Substance/Subsistence of Death Stranding huh? I wonder what minigame it'll add.

There are hints they're going to be adding more enemy variety, though. I'm not sure if anyone has pointed this out yet, but this Homo Demens in the trailer is wearing a Speed Skeleton:

In the original game, all of these guys are wearing the Power Skeletons, which is just like a cosmetic thing really. Adding a Speed Skeleton would imply they can now sprint after you? Possibly jump over gaps as well?

It's a Sony IP so that was obvious.
It's 1st party game, so if anything 6 months is on the short side.
I know it's a Sony IP, but it was announced as multiplatform (PC+PS) from the very beginning. All the secrecy around releases on other platforms later gets tiring. Just announce it for PS5 and PC (x months later).
