Sounds like a less pompous and more grounded Death Stranding. Sounds great!

I'm into it but I'm very fucking pissed we got Horse Stranding before Bicycle Stranding

What's the setting for bike stranding?

[–] 7bicycles@hexbear.net 19 points 2 months ago (1 children)
  • Think Last of Us, 50:50 on the not-zombies, crucially, everyone didn't fucking forget bicycles existed
    -- possibly also STALKER or METRO-like setting

But honestly pick any. Anywhere there is fuel scarcity bicycles would make sense.

Dangers and challenges include those fucking "goat head" thorns that pop tires.

Dude. Those fucking things. You know they can lay dormant for like a decade+ in the soil? The devil made those things. Ho hum just pulling weeds and five inches under the soil one of those fuckers goes straight through my glove and right into the tip of my finger under the nail. Basketball rolls off the court into the weeds by the school, pick it up and throw it back, friend that catches it screams because one of those fuckers hitched a ride and slammed into his palm at 25 miles per hour. All true stories from my life.

What the fuck they're literally wooden caltrops, those are from satan

[–] GrouchyGrouse@hexbear.net 7 points 2 months ago

Yes! Perfect description. And every plant produces like 50 of them. And they're hardy little bastards that can grow on a teaspoon of water. Straight from satan.

I think Death Stranding is the best bicycle touring game out there so I'd propose instead of RNG tyre pop you just go with the footwear (tyres) that go bad insanely fast

Forklift stranding or bust

It sounds like the best parts of RDR2 - they've taken out all that annoying combat to focus on hanging out with your horse!!!
