BLOGPOST UPDATE IN PROGRESS

What’s up, everybody! Here are JETLAG RADIO 698 & BENKYO RADIO 698.

Now, as you know, Death Stranding was an important game release. While all of us were stuck indoor because of the pandemic, DS helped us tell a wonderful story of reuniting our country, save our world, with plot-twists and everything else in between. It’s a very hard game at the beginning, and you can get very frustrating until you find a weapon. That’s why one of the song on the soundtrack is “Please don’t stop chapter 1.” It’s also a very rewarding game. Because when most games have instant gratification, DS works at an incredibly slow pace. You are hiking. You are hiking through some of the most beautiful places around the world. There’s also some mysterious things happening, and you keep second-guessing what is going to happen. There was a DS game, and a Director’s Cut version (I’m still playing the new missions). This new trailer raises a lot of questions, and we hope to seek answer. Remember, the story of the original Death Stranding was between Sam, and Amelie, a woman he absolutely loved, but hadn’t seen her face in ten years. A middleman comes between them and explain to them that she was taken hostage, and that they have to work together to reunite cities around the country. If you look under my LINKS page on my blog, you will see links to all 4 game trailers. If therapy costs a few hundreds of dollars a session, this video game is worth millions of dollars in Therapy. It’s incredibly helpful. It helps you deal with trauma. DS is not for everybody, but if you have a chance to play it, I suggest that you do. The story is so incredibly powerful and complex, you won’t believe what happened half the time. Such incredible characters. Such incredible character developments. Such incredible cast. When you play Death Stranding, you are entering a very tumultuous world. Sometimes you’re happy, sometimes you’re sad. Sometimes you’re excited, sometimes you’re crying. One of the most powerful scene in Death Stranding is when he goes to his room, and Fragile holds an umbrella, and tells him to picture Amelie on her beach. She asks him to close his eyes, and think about her, Fragile says, you love her, don’t you? And then she says “there it is” and then you teleport to whatever next mission you have to do. Just imagine how you’d feel if you hadn’t seen someone in ten years, and then saw their face. Tears. Death Stranding has a bit difficult mechanics when you grab a Playstation controller, but get the hang of it, play the story, and then see what the hell all of us are talking about. At least now we know there is a sequel. Fans around the world are incredibly excited.

Until Next Time!

There are interesting development with ChatGPT and LaMDA. Now, I think Sam Atlman has placed himself into a dangerous situation that could have been avoided, but he let it convolute out of control. If he’d like to have coffee 1-on-1, we can. I am very interested in LaMDA from Alphabet (Google Corporation) because of Redacted (Hint: Lambda Radio).
