Isn’t it a he?She was definitely being tongue in cheek
Yeah, and on PS5. Its great for PS4 players that they can play this game also. In the coming year(s) they wil be more PS5 exclusive games, and that will be the swangsong for the PS4, a great console just like the PS5 is....It's on PS4.
Absolutely I'll be playing on PS4 Pro that's why I mentioned that. I'm glad they've continued to support PS4 as PS5 is still difficult to get.Yeah, and on PS5.

I've seen the trailer 10 times already.Wow 3.3 million views already. Game is goimg to be a megaton.
He looked much better in the older trailer.Yea, not a fan of how Tyr is being depicted so far. He both looks and sounds incredibly weak compared to Kratos. I get that he’s been imprisoned for some time, but still, you’d expect the Norse God of War to radiate a bit more masculinity.

I platinumed GOW 3 and could not disagree with you more.I agree. I thought GOW 3 actually had better combat, weapon options and bosses and was a better game overall.
God of War 3 has much better and more varied enemies though. The boss battles are also second to none.I platinumed GOW 3 and could not disagree with you more.
GOW took a less is more approach to weapons. You have the chains, the ax and the shield. But each of them have unique move sets and play very different from one another. Add in runes and you have a ton of variety to how you can play.
The weapons in GOW3 are reskins of one another. Their combos are the same. The hammer was the only one that felt different from the rest.
GOW3 is definitely more flashy and focused on spectacle but its ultimately shallow compared to GOW. Fighting the Valkyrie's really shows how much better the combat in in GOW. And I know its only my opinion but the Ax is the coolest fucking weapon ever. I'm hoping people are right and we get to play with Thor's hammer in this one.
I would say God of War 3 had much better enemy and bosses designs but I agree if we are talking about the actual combat, God of War 2018 was better.God of War 3 has much better and more varied enemies though. The boss battles are also second to none.

I agree with you both. The variety of enemies was a let down and there were not nearly enough boss battles. Hoping they fix that issue with Ragnarock.I would say God of War 3 had much better enemy and bosses designs but I agree if we are talking about the actual combat, God of War 2018 was better.
My biggest issue with GOW 2018 was how bad the enemy variety was. I mean in the section when you go to Niflheim to get heart of guardian in order cure Atreus and I was excited of what I was gonna fight to get that heart but it turns out it just reskin of the troll boss that I fought 100 times, I mean for high budget AAA game, enemy variety was really bad.
I thought the combat in God Of War 3 was pretty good but yes the series did need a change after having the same gameplay for 10 years.I would say God of War 3 had much better enemy and bosses designs but I agree if we are talking about the actual combat, God of War 2018 was better.

Yeah that was very clear after God Of War Ascension, they took that combat as far as they could and GOW 2018 still has element for pervious games especially after you get your Blades, but now there more depth but I wish it had more fun enemies/boss fights, I like the Valkyrie fights (which were optional) but outside those there weren't than many fun fights.I thought the combat in God Of War 3 was pretty good but yes the series did need a change after having the same gameplay for 10 years.
I’m kind of glad it is being released for PS4, so those without a PS5 can still enjoy the sequel. Hopefully there will be a new GOW that will fully utilise the PS5 sometime in the future.It looks amazing, but as I said earlier: imagine this being a PS5-only project... Still my most anticipated game since it was announced.
Things I hope for:
- that the rumors of it being twice as long as the previous held are true
- that they improve on enemy/boss variety (no troll-recycling please)
- not too many sidequests, but make the ones that are there interesting story- and lorewise
Spot on post^^. That being said I think considering the cinematic nature of GoW, they did a great job making it still feel like your actually playing a game. What a spectacle this game is. I agree with you though there is still room for improvement. Take the control away a little bit less please devs and add some better enemy variety. The boss fights kinda sucked. Boulder was only cool the very first time I fought him.Ninja Gaiden, Sekiro, Dragons Dogma, For Honor
GoW relies on cinematics too much for me. It constantly takes away control for the sake of epic spectacle (which is cool for those who want it). How many times am I going to see the same animation of Balder punching the shield in the same fight? Also doesn't help that they just added some fire and ice particle effects for his final boss fight. He didn't have much variation in his attacks either.
Enemies/bosses also have certain invulnerable states during certain animations, and you can't hit them until that specific animation is at a certain point, which gets annoying. Sometimes you'll waste a super because of it, or an enemy will just attack right through your combo, completely ignoring it.
On top of all that, no real enemy variety. Same few bosses (there are 5 real story boss fights, and two of them are Baldur; Dragon was just OK; repeat trolls and Valks), same few fodder. Like Baldur, most bosses don't really have that many attacks, which is rough when there are so few bosses.
The devs wanted to translate Dark Souls style combat, but they didn't do the best at it IMO. Definite room for improvement in the sequel.
Fuck em. They should be able to find a ps5 by now. Not worth holding out on the people who bought a ps5 so ps4 owners can get a chance to play GoW. If it releases ps5 exclusive they'll get to play a better version of Ragnarok eventually when they upgrade. This is the first generation that Sony has held their games hostage to last gen hardware, 2 years into the next gen.I’m kind of glad it is being released for PS4, so those without a PS5 can still enjoy the sequel.

That’s one way to look at it. Or they could be supporting the millions of gamers who own a PS4, is another way to look at it.Fuck em. They should be able to find a ps5 by now.

It's about treating your customers right. The people who went out and supported Sony and spent the $550 (or more) on Sonys hyped up tech. This is Sony doing what they've done for this entire generation which is to shit on ps5 owners for the sake of their greed.
I thought the combat in God Of War 3 was pretty good but yes the series did need a change after having the same gameplay for 10 years.
The single shot was pretty amazing. I hope they pull that off again. Seriously can’t wait for Ragnarock.Spot on post^^.

I don't think it's a coincidence this took 5 years to make and the previous one only 4, even thought they were rebuilding their engine and rebooting an entire franchise.It looks amazing, but as I said earlier: imagine this being a PS5-only project...

It's been a long time but I don't remember the different weapons being reskins. That would've stuck in my mind. I remember the bosses and enemies being way better and the story being far more dramatic not to mention the brutality. GOW 2018 seems so empty and dead in comparison. Where is everyone?I platinumed GOW 3 and could not disagree with you more.

It's the way a gamer who wants to see games progress should look at itThat’s one way to look at it. Or they could be supporting the millions of gamers who own a PS4, is another way to look at it.
Reskin was an exaggeration on my part but they still did not have much variety.Weapons weren't reskins
It depends on what you like. I love spectacle and set pieces so The Stranger was my favorite boss fight by farThat last boss was disappointing. All style over substance. The real last boss was the Valkyrie queen.
They made the good bosses optional so as not scare people off with the challenge.
Would she not be an EX MILF.Freya is such a milf
Valkyrie alone are mechanically better than anything inside gow3 combined.God of War 3 has much better and more varied enemies though. The boss battles are also second to none.
A lot of the great boss fights from God of War 3 were full of QTEs and weren't always about your skill. It was literally almost all about spectacle. Which is why the Valkyries were a great addition to the previous game tbh.Valkyrie alone are mechanically better than anything inside gow3 combined.
Chronos spectacle aside is a trash boss fight.
I understand that, i just prefer mechanically good boss fight over boss fights full of spectacle but with very poor/easy machanics and gimmicks.A lot of the great boss fights from God of War 3 were full of QTEs and weren't always about your skill. It was literally almost all about spectacle. Which is why the Valkyries were a great addition to the previous game tbh.
But it is God of War, spectacle is needed and i hope some huge ass boss fights here.
Will play on PS5 and PC when it comes out.Really good trailer. Felt badass. Will play on PC when it's ready
Why not have both?Valkyrie alone are mechanically better than anything inside gow3 combined.
Chronos spectacle aside is a trash boss fight.
They were all mechanically extremely simple, how many moves for boss? 3? 4 at best? Some of them probably even less.Why not have both?
Poseidon, Hades, Hercules, Hermes, Zeus battles were all enjoyable.
Sony should have stopped at the PS1, just imagine the player base. Unlimited PS+ revenue.That’s one way to look at it. Or they could be supporting the millions of gamers who own a PS4, is another way to look at it.
