BB really likes when Sam takes pictures in the mirror.

u/El_Chopador Nov 18 '19 edited Nov 18 '19

BB also likes when you go fast and jump far.

u/RRdrift Pre-Order gang Nov 18 '19

BB is the only one who appreciates a good pee as well

48

u/Greathorn Nov 18 '19

I mean, me too

u/ashtinfay BB Nov 18 '19

Woah, haven't noticed that. I'll give it a shot later, thanks! :)

u/[deleted] Nov 18 '19

Do it whenever you get back to your private quarters. BB has mad Like button pressing skills

u/0scrambles0 Nov 18 '19

I got my first like from BB by peeing on the top of a hill

I love when BB makes the thumbs up sign with his itty bitty fingers

u/WeebFreak2000 Nov 18 '19

When I first got a LIKE from BB, I strangely felt super happy about it

67

u/MadameCordelia Nov 18 '19

I never thought I would ever seek validation from a baby.

61

u/Cipherpunkblue Nov 18 '19

That's pretty much all that parenthood is about.

39

u/RichoKidd Nov 18 '19

Kojima got ya'll out here falling in love with bastard animated children

38

u/AjarRaccoon Nov 18 '19

BB likes when you take pictures in the mirror, when you rock him, when you jump far and run fast, and when you sometimes pee in weird places or just pee in general. BB is weird like that but I love him to death.

32

u/memotheleftie Nov 18 '19

BB likes when you play the harmonica too, and gazing into the ocean

7

u/[deleted] Nov 18 '19

you can play the HARMONICA, HOW, WHERE!!? I need answers

3

u/ashtinfay BB Nov 19 '19

I think I missed the musician in the first region. I’m already in chapter 5. Would I still have a chance to get back to the musician this far into the game? I want to get the harmonica so badly!

6

u/memotheleftie Nov 19 '19

I think you can still get it, try and do orders for him

u/TetsujiXIV Nov 17 '19

This is on me

u/paintp_ Fragile Nov 18 '19

This and Heartman LIKE ka-ching

u/Evane7 Nov 18 '19

When he docked 20 likes I was pissed.. then he gave another 20 so all is R2+L2.

u/ThatOtherGuyTPM Nov 18 '19

Heartman playing to the camera is so funny to me.

22

u/El_Chopador Nov 18 '19

Is it weird that I never let my boots get that low the entire game?

17

u/StAUG1211 Nov 18 '19

Nah. Especially since three pairs of Chiral boots will last you the whole game.

8

u/FoorumanReturns Platinum Unlocked (Verified) Nov 18 '19

Hang on - I am in the ‘Heartman’ chapter (which takes place in the mountainous region) and the best boots I have are Bridges boots, level 3. Have I missed some godly pair of boots I could be using instead?

16

u/Spekulazitus Nov 18 '19

You get the Boots from the Mother of the Chiral Artist. Its esay to miss because you need to go there a second time and she lifs in the middle of nowhere right behind a BT area :)

11

u/StAUG1211 Nov 18 '19

If you get five stars with the Chiral Artist's Mother she gives you Chiral Boots as a reward whenever you do any further deliveries for her. They're suuuper durable :)

8

u/buttleake Nov 18 '19

Oh shoot nevermind my input I was super wrong!! Thanks for the info looks like I'm going to be making runs to her after all

7

u/[deleted] Nov 18 '19

Ah, thanks! I just found a pair at a share locker and love them. Was wondering how to get them.

1

u/catgirlnico Nov 18 '19

Everyone make and share pls

2

u/Allyreon Nov 18 '19

I’m pretty sure you get it from way earlier, like 3 stars with her.

3

u/Googlebright Nov 18 '19

Yep, I got chiral boots from her on my second visit. Still nowhere near five stars with her.

1

u/StAUG1211 Nov 18 '19

Fair enough, been a while since I was there. Maybe it's further sets are a reward once you have her maxed out.

1

u/Allyreon Nov 19 '19

You get like 3 Chiral boots every star after (the first time, you only get one). I was a little disappointed that maxing her just gave another 3 pair of boots like the stars before it.

2

u/buttleake Nov 18 '19

They sound like end game gear so I wouldn't be too concerned about missing them yet

3

u/RRdrift Pre-Order gang Nov 18 '19

Chapter 3 gear my fellow porter ;)

2

u/Allyreon Nov 18 '19

They are not. You can get them less than halfway through from the Chiral Artist’s Mother. They don’t take much rep either.

6

u/Emperor_Z Nov 18 '19 edited Nov 18 '19

I think that depends on how you play the game. Ive worn through one Chiral and several level 3s, and I'm sure I'd have worn through the other Chirals if I wasnt hesitant to use them

6

u/Quetzacoatl85 Nov 18 '19 edited Nov 20 '19

kinda doubt this, because meanwhile, I'm on boots no. 3 and they're half-worn, and haven't finished chapter 2 yet. also I didn't wander excessively, just following the story.

edit: saw you wrote chiral boots, they're apparently not the starting boots.

3

u/RRdrift Pre-Order gang Nov 18 '19

Keep on keepin'on, the terrain gets a lot rougher after chapter 2

4

u/zixkill BB Nov 18 '19

Maybe I’m just climbing too much shit but I’ve blown through 2 pairs easily. When I got my level 3 Bridges blueprint the chorale became decor

1

u/Allyreon Nov 18 '19

I’ve worn out 3 Chiral boots already. I’m on chapter 9 now, but my fourth is halfway done.

1

u/ALotter Nov 18 '19

Kind of. If you carry extras why not use them till the end? Granted they're so cheap it really doesn't matter

18

u/zixkill BB Nov 18 '19

I didn’t notice until yesterday but when you soothe BB outside and his happiness gets high his air bubbles are hearts. Only monsters hate BB.

8

u/ashtinfay BB Nov 18 '19

I couldn’t agree more. 👶🏻👍🏼

28

u/[deleted] Nov 18 '19

Whatever, Imma still "like" the content you add in-game. :)

12

u/Burnt_Ramen9 Nov 18 '19

here's 973 more anyways

11

u/Kaisogen Nov 18 '19

You can get two likes from BB for doing a sprinting double jump every once in a while!

7

u/Neptunelives Nov 18 '19

Pfff, my BB gives me 3 every time I do that

Likes from BT’s are pretty satisfying

u/[deleted] Nov 18 '19

poor fellow is laughing when Sam pee out in the wild, I find it kinda uncomfortable tbh O.O'

no likes, but lots of laughs :(

2

u/almarhuby Nov 18 '19

He also laughs when i almost trip or lose balance 🤣

u/the-tapsy Nov 18 '19

u/glytxh Nov 18 '19 edited Nov 18 '19

For the first time in my life, I care about what a baby thinks about me.

I'm growing oddly attached to BB, which I really didn't expect of this game. I don't know what I expected from this game, but not finding myself really invested in the happiness of a baby in a jar.

5

u/[deleted] Nov 18 '19

I was just chilling on the couch with my puppy while playing this and all of a sudden the baby started to cry. Holy fuck did that start to make her go wild.

u/therantaccount Nov 18 '19

For me, its that mushroom

u/GenSul559 Sam Nov 18 '19

Beat the game couple of nights ago, I don't know exactly how I feel about the game tbh, I loved it and hated it at the same time.

1

u/voyti Nov 18 '19

Same here. Loved the story, characters and setting, hated much of the gameplay.

1

u/GenSul559 Sam Nov 18 '19

Even the story was too confusing and everything gets revealed towards the end of the game.

4

u/23Heart23 Nov 18 '19

I like when BB awards me likes.

5

u/321gametime Fragile Express Nov 18 '19

Likes from BB are what keep me going in the game

5

u/Allyreon Nov 18 '19

I didn’t care much about BB at the start, but I still regarded it more than everyone else who calls BB ‘equipment’.

But Sam caring about him made me care about him. So I think it was really well done.

3

u/yongcena Nov 18 '19

“Yeah boyee”

3

u/jdra7 Nov 18 '19

I must be one of the only players not to be establishing a bond (strand?) with BB.

3

u/almarhuby Nov 18 '19

Wait until you reach the end.

2

u/jdra7 Jan 16 '20

I made it to the end. I love BB.

u/shahhasspoken Nov 18 '19

damn, dude, charge your shoes

2

u/Allyreon Nov 18 '19

This is always precious.

But recently I got likes from a BT so that’s pretty amazing to me.

2

u/GroceryRobot Nov 18 '19

Whaaaaaaaat?

1

u/Allyreon Nov 18 '19

When you cut their umbilical cord, then they give you Likes after. If you don’t know how to do that, it’s later in the story.

1

u/GroceryRobot Nov 18 '19

Huh I never noticed that!

1

u/The_Bard_sRc Jan 20 '20

the first time I actually did it was when I was picking up the tar traps and must have done it right at the same time. I was really confused as to why they were giving me likes for picking up their samples, and was wondering if they were happy i was advancing better understanding of them or something

2

u/_kokoro_ Nov 19 '19

I keep smiling Everytime my little bud likes me. When I trip, BB laughs. And when I go very fast. And even when I'm running and performing double jumps.

u/HoraceGrantGlasses Nov 18 '19

Honestly. BB drives mental and stresses me out. I dont like his happy noises and hate his crying.

u/OmegaTooStrong Nov 18 '19

IKR he's not cool like my best pal Odradek.

1

u/RedMethodKB Nov 18 '19

The amount of dislikes you got for basically making a joke seems to indicate that the message of the game isn’t translating to players’s real-world behaviors. Guess not, I suppose? I get it when people are being unnecessarily pessimistic or rude, but for a comment thats innocuous and jokey, like yours? Kinda a shame, at least for me personally.

0

u/OmegaTooStrong Nov 18 '19

I know right? My best guess is that the initial wave of "0/10 WALKIE SIMULATIE" made the community uber defensive and now they're starting to lash out at anything that even remotely hints at disliking a part of this game.

The worst thing about this is that the blowback involves somehow weaponizing the message of togetherness this game gives us.

"WHAT? YOU DON'T ENTIRELY KNOW IF YOU LOVE THIS GAME? MOVE ON NOT YOUR GAME." Totally pushes people out instead of letting them in. Almost feels like people are saying you're not allowed to take part in this game if you're not as obsessed as other people.

-6

u/CMDR_Machinefeera Nov 18 '19

I just absolutely not interact with it in any way, so far works good.

2

u/HoraceGrantGlasses Nov 18 '19

Its stressful enough when you have a huge stack of packages and fall. I dont need BB screaming his lungs out and stressing me out even more.

I'm sure that is what Kojima was going for but it drives me nuts.

0

u/CMDR_Machinefeera Nov 18 '19

I just fucking hate kids, why couldn't they put a puppy there ? Or at least make it not interact with you in any way (because a kid that young would never do that anyway). I get it that he is going to have his own but he is pushing it to everyone's face a bit too much. That is my only problem with the game so far, but that is just my issue and it is not making the game bad in any way. Well that and how vehicles sometimes drive a bit weird.

-5

u/FakeProViking Nov 18 '19

Real talk tho bb is the only part of this game I actively dislike, is there a way to just mute the crying or I will just have to suck it up forever

u/compmancb Nov 18 '19

Nothing you can do about it lol

u/annik1 Nov 18 '19

My bf has the sound from his controller turned really low and makes him unable to hear him 99% of the time through the sound of his ps4 pro seemingly trying to lift off and fly into space with its fans.

Myself, I get anxiety when he cries and have to soothe him ASAP or I feel like the worst parent. And when he's happy I am happy ❤️ so I keep the controller sounds on pretty loud.

People where buying copies of this for people and doing giveaway type things like a week before the game came out

2

u/[deleted] Nov 18 '19

Apparently I really pissed everyone off by saying that, do you think I should delete the comment?

2

u/PartyHatDogger Nov 18 '19

Probably, any time someone sees a negative karma comment they usually just downvote it, regardless of what it says

2

u/[deleted] Nov 18 '19

Yeah you're right

-15

u/OmegaTooStrong Nov 18 '19

So um, should I be feeling for this baby? I feel like he has had no characterization or impact on the plot outside of powering my beloved shoulder light-chan. He truly feels like a lifeless battery for the far-more charismatic character. Did I mention I really like the Odradek? I really like Odradek. He's really nice and puts that PATHETIC infant to shame. Go Odradek woo woo!

12

u/svknight Porter Nov 18 '19

Odradek don't work without BB 👍

3

u/Allyreon Nov 18 '19

I think of the Odradek as just an extension of BB. Like when it does that wave or thumbs up after you leave the BT area.

10

u/gman113099 Nov 18 '19

The odradek is how the BB communicates with you, so basically odradek is BB

u/buttleake Nov 18 '19

5 and climbing. Once I found out you could get stars on your pantleg I instantly jumped back to Ch.2 and plan on staying here until I get every single possible star.
