Death Stranding: 17 Tips, Tricks & Secrets The Game Doesn't Tell You

3. Mainline Story Missions To Get To The Wind Farm ASAP

Contrary to what some reviews have said, the first few hours of Death Stranding's Episode 2 aren't a slog.

Sure, it's difficult, and you can get totally lost in the systems and monotony of walking through the same areas over and over again, but it's still satisfying, and the rewards and story beats come thick and fast.

However, while you shouldn't rush through it, it is worth sticking with the main story orders until you get to the Wind Farm. At that point you'll unlock the generator to power the bike nearby, which saves you making the same trips on foot.

All of the side missions and lost cargo can still be focused on afterwards, and it will make traveling between points that much easier.
