Death Stranding 2 is much more approachable, if you’re prepared

theverge.com Andrew Webster 2026-03-07 04:00:00

It took me a long time to appreciate Death Stranding. I’m not even sure I fully got it after my initial playthrough, which was equal parts mesmerizing and dull. The game, in which you play as a postapocalyptic delivery man in a world ravaged by a breach with the afterlife, demands a lot from players. The gameplay is fiddly and frustrating, and the storyline is often inscrutable, at times seeming to make no sense. While it borrows elements from walking sims and stealth games, there’s nothing like

Death Stranding 2 Review: Still Weird, but Way More Playable

When Death Stranding came out in 2019, I did what a lot of people apparently did: Played it for an hour, thought it was a bit weird, and didn't pick it up again until years later (in my case, 2022). So when a sequel to the game was announced, I wondered what Hideo Kojima could possibly do in a follow-up to his strangest game yet. After playing Death Stranding 2 for 40-plus hours, he did quite a bit. Death Stranding 2: On the Beach should have been called Death Stranding 2: Quality of Life, beca

Kids' Smartwatches Might Be Better Phone Alternatives: Here's What to Look For

cnet.com See Full Bio 2026-03-07 10:00:10

A big advantage of giving a child a smartwatch is that it saves you from having to buy a smartphone while still providing a direct line to your kid. This can be especially helpful for parents managing pickup and drop-off logistics or relying on other caregivers for transportation. Younger kids, in particular, may benefit from avoiding the distractions that come with a phone. The fact that a watch is strapped to their wrist is also a bonus, considering how many water bottles and sweatshirts end u

However, the company switches things up by offering an optional external lens for even better zoom.
