>"The change in setting to Norse mythology is passionately on displayed throughout the voyage through Midgar and it's accompanying realms. The amount of lore is staggering and at time a little overwhelming with references to countless names, places and events."

You're not going to bring up how they made Baldur, the Norse God of Light and all that is Good, an asshole? Or how the original God of War was an authentic "Greek Tragedy"?

>"Additionally, Atreus can read ancient runes, and offer insight into Norse history"

So, he's Elizabeth from Bioshock Infinite?

>"Exploration also yields valuable rewards for players who want to take a break from the main story. Damp caves, flourishing flora, and snowy mountain peaks house brutal enemies and optional side-tasks that always manage to feel worthwhile and challenging. The world map does an excellent job in immersing you in the surroundings only showing you an overview of exteriors further contributing to a sense of adventure and discovery."

I thought God of War was a linear hack and slash series with a focus on setpieces. Why are side-quests relevant to this game, why is it open-world, and how does it add to the game to make it "adventurous" instead of just being a tool used to extend it's playtime? No one ever seemed to have a problem with the "adventurous" nature of the original 5 games (Unless you're afraid of boobs and men acting like men), or even other hack-and-slash games (DMC, Bayonetta, Ninja Gaiden, Blades of Time…).

>"More importantly, God of War is presented in one continuous take with very minimal loading that rarely takes control away."

What about the 8 hours of cutscenes (Almost a third of the title)?

>"Many of these locations contain a variety of puzzles that play out like brain teasers."

And, you're showing footage of Kratos throwing his ax at a target while saying that. I remember even the Harry Potter games EA made 16 years ago doing that as a "puzzle" as well. Surprising how things change.

>"Most importantly, the reward always feel worth seeking out as they provide currency and rare crafting materials. Crafting plays a large part in progression with each upgrade contributing to your overall power level. Kratos can equip different armor sets that have varying stats and perks with the more desirable sets locked behind the some of the game's most difficult encounters. Furthermore, certain pieces have sockets to equip enchantments that add even more stat buffs and modifiers."

Why is crafting a thing now and how does this add to anything? From the sounds of it, it seems like game relies less on the player actually being good to get rewards, and relies more on them having to look under every rock just so that they can beat anything. This description of gameplay is beginning to remind me of the area in gaming that series like Monster Hunter specialize in, but then that also brings up the question of why the game has puzzles and a story. And, on top of that, Monster Hunter, and other games in it's genre, still require the player to get good. Also, again, previous hack and slash games NEVER experienced this problem, so why was it added?

>"But, most importantly, Kratos can THROW the ax and effortlessly call it back to him."

<Tries hardest not to burst out laughing

>"There are also light and heavy Runic attacks that can be found and equipped to the Leviathan ax offering another layer of customization."

If the developers were so worried about customization, why not give Kratos another weapon or two to switch to during the game?

>"Atreus is also a capable fighter that can be directed to shoot arrows at targeted enemies or harass foes to keep the pressure away from his father."

So, there is no sense of "crowd control" due to how Mini-Kratos is there to help if things "ever get too difficult".

>"These elements come together in an incredible combat system that's engaging and aggressively impact every step of the way. Even on normal difficulty the stakes are high and the enemies are threatening. Combat encounters often have the potential to go terrible wrong and some optional fights are extremely difficult. Not only emphasizing the importance of exploring to find upgrades, but demanding smart and skillful performance from the player."

Up to this point, you laid out how the game hands everything to you and that skill isn't required. You have unlockable and upgradeable powers and armor, Mini-Kratos playing support, and the ability to "throw the ax"…how can this game possibly be "hard" unless Dean is tutoring you on how to play games?

>"Visually, God of War is stunning. The breathtaking vistas sell the scale and scope of Midgar. While the finer attention to detail brings everything to life."

You've shown numerous arenas that are empty, flat, and could have been done on the Dreamcast. Also, "scale and scope" is a pretty empty claim to make when you compare it to just about ANYTHING produced during the sixth generation of game consoles. Need look no further than Spartan: Total Warrior and Halo 2 and Far Cry and Metroid Prime and numerous Star Wars games, and so on. And, do we also need to bring up Xenoblade Chronicles? Even the claim about "finer details" becomes hollow when you've had games like Monster Hunter (Again) and Tao Feng: Fist of the Lotus.

>"When playing on a PS4 Pro, you can also opt for a performance mode that favors frame-rate over visual splendor."

Excuse me, what? When did we walk into a commercial for a Sony's console? Why does NO ONE have a problem with the fact the developers didn't even TRY to prioritize the game running well? What's even the point of owning a console if developers are just going to treat them like gimped PCs? AND THIS IS SONY DOING THIS TO THEIR OWN SYSTEM? WHY SHOULD ANYONE CARE ABOUT ANYTHING THEY PUT OUT IF THEY PUT THIS MUCH MINIMAL EFFORT INTO THEIR "FLAGSHIP" GAME?

>"God of War doesn't just feel like the next step for the franchise, but the entire video game industry. Phenomenal visuals, rewarding exploration, and a deep nuanced combat system contribute to an epic adventure that should be experienced by every human on Earth."

Yes because if this game was "experienced by every human on Earth", and if we were to use this game as a guide to tell where the game industry is going, then anyone worth their salt should be on high alert and worrying. You cannot play a third of the game, you have mechanics and levels that have not relation to one another being mashed together for no other reason than to appeal to as wide a demographic as possible (Meanwhile, also alienating all of the original GoW fans), and you have graphics that have much of their lust and splendor lost because we've been see the same capabilities possible for over a decade now. And, given how EVERYONE AND THEIR PET is giving this game 10/10, people should be running around screaming over how low the standards in gaming have become that they're praising a complete and utter mess.

God of War doesn't deserve this. NOTHING in gaming deserves THIS. Why is this being allowed to happen?

I don't think the "Cinematic Experience" trend will ever truly die out. Multiplayer games are hopping from fad to fad at what seems to be an increasingly faster pace, but with single player games, normalfags have been gleefully lapping up cutscene-happy, minimally interactive dreck since the tail end of last gen when The Last of Us came out. I get the impression that the "Cinematic Experience" is equivalent to the Superhero movie, where the people behind them have finely tuned the formula to be accessible enough for the largest number of plebs, dazzling them with a lot of spectacle and leaving "emotional" moments floating around for them to gawp at without actually having to challenge their little brains. The level of quality is mediocre, but never offensively awful, so the normalfag feels confident paying in, as he can count on being at least passively amused for a set amount of time. Like the Superhero movie, many like us will doom-say at every opportunity and insist with any perceived misstep that the fad is finally over, but it will never happen. These sorts of things are engineered meticulously to part retards from their money, to the point that there isn't anything conceivable that will surpass it.

Doesn't help that most bosses are just QTE events with several of them fucking reskinned, the upgrades only make a barely hard walking simulator, faster because if you upgrade your equipment, you'll just walk from one objective to the next, or in a boss' case, transition from combat to QTE faster.

His characterization, it's completely worthless other than, "Hey, I watched Dark Knight with my son!" by Cory Balrog, you only know his mommy issues by reading lore notes or listening to Kratos, Mimir and Kratos's Wife's Son talk about it, and the final boss finale "Muh Mommy was forced by Odin to make me invulnarable to avert the prophecy of Ragnarok! I blame her for me growing up under Odin as an asshole!"

If I remember correctly, (I watched it a couple days ago) his calls it a masterpiece. He describes it mostly in 'cinematic' terms, as most of the posters in this thread have pointed out, it seems more story-driven than gameplay-driven than previous titles. He claims that the gameplay doesn't suffer from this, but that combat is significantly slower and simplified over previous games but still fairly difficult (I think he calls it more tactical). The biggest thing I pulled from it was his praise of the story, showing a father and son relationship that grows over the course of the game, as they journey to spread his son's mother's ashes at the peak of the highest mountain in the world. He also claims it's the most beautiful game he's ever seen.

What about the fact that Loki is your son yet the World Serpent already exists? Try to draw the timeline of the mythos considering that, in theory, you start Ragnarok at the end of the game and everything that involves while Loki is a child still. They shoe-horned Kratos and his new family story into the Norse Mythology by taking over a central figure without any care for what the consequences of said action would have in terms of consistency.

After playing through this, I gotta say it isn't bad but it sure as hell isn't a God Of War game. It feels like a Darksider game without jumping and platforming.

It's not a 10/10 though, more like 7/10 with points taken away for the combat being mediocre and the story being not even half as epic as the previous titles.

>>14684691

Did you play the three games? They shoe-horned Kratos into Greek mythology and had him murder the entire pantheon. This is just par for the course for a God of War game.

In fact I'm curious how the kid is going to end up now that he's been given the name of the most degenerate god in Norse mythology.

It'd be great if having a Spartan father nipped any possible faggotry in the bud. Kid even mentioned that Loki sounded weird and Atreus was better, so I have high hopes for him.

Kratos was shoehorned into greek mythology as well.

I love Baldur, he's my favourite God of any of the pantheons apart from THE God that is

If they've bastardised him I'm going to write in a letter of complaint pretending to be a Norse Bagan Thor worshipping Odin son lover and say how they've offended my culture, and threaten to write to the Mainstream Media about religion persecution.


19aa97 No.14684737

>>14684722

So if the characters and timeline in the Norse Mythology are completely different in the GoW universe, what's the point of even using the setting in the first place if you're not gonna try and be consistent with the established backstory? For example, going back to Baldur, it's not just how he looks or acts, is there any reason why his mother is Freya and not Frigg? Why even use Baldur at all if you're not going to have him be like Baldur in any capacity outside of him being invincible?

I'll agree with you on the first point, but it's much much worse in this game because it completely messes up many integral characters and events from the Norse Mythology, from Loki to Baldur to Ragnarok, everything feels out of character.

Odin only married Freya to get some of that nice Vanir magic, then proceeded to banish her and unperson, there was at least some consistency with the Greek deities portrayal, but Cory Balrog doesn't care, he just needs a son simulator game and he can do whatever the fuck he wants, think his old pal David Jaffe might be slinking back to Sony as we speak.

Apparently Thor smashed Jormungand so hard during the Ragnarok, he's been sent back in time before his birth. By the way, Loki spawned him with a giantess, yet (almost?) all giants in gow are gone. Hell, most of everything is gone, Kratos lives fuck knows where, there are just two dwarfs and they don't even have an actual shop, they just have some quantum stands that exist in all places you'd need them. I think that you encounter only those two dwarfs, gods, lots of mobs and that's it. Well, there are elves, but they have an entire realm of their own and they do actually have cities and shit, too bad you just fight them or ignore them.

Nice trips but you're simplifying it a bit. Yes God of War's original gameplay is essentially a copy job from DMC. However the story of the original trilogy far out classes any DMC story. Also the DMC games are not partial to puzzles, whereas the original God of War trilogy throws fairly simple puzzles at you regularly.

gotta admit they did get a little bit creative with it, there are times where you need to position yourself to hit 2 targets with one throw or other where you need to stuck the axe in a wall move somewhere else and call it back to hit the targget but thats when the ideas run dry, the puzzles are literally Hellblade tier

God of War may have been incorrect about a lot of Greek mythos aspects, but it was still a "Greek tragedy" at the end of the first one and introduced lesser known things to folks. After 3/Ghost of Sparta, everyone was happy to say Kratos' story was done and we could take the same formula, a badass who is a demigod/hero of a religion/mythos who gets jacked over by a god/the gods and goes on the warpath for revenge and runs into mythical locations, creatures, and kicks ass while doing the occasional puzzle.

Everyone thought Asura's Wrath was basically going to be God of War: Hindu edition, and even though it wasn't, it has more gameplay and more in common with God of War than this soy filled trash.

I watched the ending and some gameplay on youtube, the kid is Loki, the guy I was watching was playing on the 2nd hardest difficulty and was simply breezing through most fights by holding R1, he got shat on in the early game however so take that for what you will.

The enemy variety is shite.

The puzzles amount to throw axe/blades of chaos at objects.

The game devs realise the camera and controls are shit and adds enemy indicators which changes colour depending on if they're close to you or about to attack you from behind, as well as a quick turn button.

The most complexity the fights get are the two elements you have to play around switching between ice axe for fire enemies and blades of chaos/fists for ice enemies.

The story is kinda shit, the game sequel baits too with Thor coming to attack Kratos and son, and it shows that Kratos will die, just a matter of when.

There's a point where Loki shoots Kratos with his bow and they gloss over it like it never happened.

There's a scene after you kill the final boss and Kratos is having a serious talk with Loki about what it means to be a god, the mother of the guy you just killed walks into frame and gives them both the evil eye as they turn to look at her, then the Seinfeld theme plays. Not really but it might as well have It completely ruins the impact of what Kratos was saying.

It's a 10/10 because the first few minutes of the game come out strong, and that's all the journos will ever play, but the game never develops from those first few minutes hoping that you'll be hooked on the story rather than the gameplay. It's shit.

I've never heard the term "mating press". Is that a position? I assume you're talking about sex in general.

It's very different to masturbation, more pleasant but nowhere near as good as a lot of guys say.

It's kind of hard to describe what a vagina feels like to a virgin, but it's warm, damp and feels more relaxed than your palm does. It doesn't have as firm a grip around it.

Also the missionary position is shit, I find it awkward and so does she.

The DLC costs more than the base game and they're planning on selling coupons to change your character's look include swapping between male and female. Cucks will defend it by saying it's just cosmetic but this kind of DLC is fucking awful. Add to that the "games as a service" meme and you've got time limited event quests, lack of monster variety and the player is much more powerful than ever before while monsters are at their weakest or at the very least around the same power and you've got a sloppy game that's trying to be both more action and fast while trying to be like the old style and achieves neither heights.

They promised that all of the monsters are going to come in from free updates.

So far they delivered only 2.

One of them was deviljho and the other one is the limited time Kulve Taroth, its going to come back again and again, but of course for a limited time.

They still have to release Oroshi Kirin, Lunastra and Alatreon. By now they also seem to be releasing the monsters monthly.

There has been no word about G-rank yet and if they are even selling it as a DLC or not.

Its still a very good action game, one of the if not the best and most addicting one on current gen consoles. Its sales have been proof enough.

it also had a worldwide release and tons of international press, meanwhile no other mh has had that

You reek of sales pitch.

Monster hunter world is shit. It's a shit monster hunter game, and even as a stand alone, it's shit compared to most anything out at the moment. Saying it's better than soy of war is like saying the shit you took yesterday is better than the shit you took today; it's still shit.

People bought it because of the beta and judged its quality from there.

Players didnt quickly think the game was shit from after 2 weeks of playing it, they still enjoyed it and if it did turn out to be shit, people would have already grilled the game to death because so.

MHW also turned out to be the top selling game of February too and I never though I would see a relatively niche game like MH selling so much.

I still see jewtube videos about it nowdays due to the new events and monsters being released occasionally which keeps the game relevant. Its a smart move by capcom.

>>14686330

I'm not lying arent I? Im just telling anon the truth, people who bought the game like the game.

And just because you say that its shit doesnt detract from the fact that its been incredibly successful.

Its probably gonna be the same for God of Soy.

>It's a pretty good story. Jesus Christ waltz into Rome, and takes control of the Roman Empire, previously exterminating every Jew in Judea and forcing the rest to flee to Persia and China. He channeled the spirit of /pol/ so much that from now on, Jesus Christ is known as the Butcher from Nazareth. After enacting his bloody vengeance, he departs from this world leaving the Empire in the hands of Saint Peter, who promptly fucks everything up. Also, there are no Muslims either. Prophet Mohammed got killed by a patrol of Christian knights somewhere in the Levant when he tried to spread his faith there. After his death, Islam kind of fell apart. The main adversary are the Persians. Arabian Peninsula is a shithole full of unimportant, nomadic goatfuckers in this timeline.

>Everyone thought Asura's Wrath was basically going to be God of War: Hindu edition, and even though it wasn't, it has more gameplay and more in common with God of War than this soy filled trash

I mean, it sort of was: Asura's Wrath has a hell of a lot in common with God of War

>Protagnist is rage incarnate who has his family murdered and taken from him and goes for a quest for revenge against the gods with a heavy focus on QTE's

The main difference is that Asura is 10x more likeable, sympathic then Kratos ever was, while still being a ball of fury and anger, and Asura's Wrath, while more QTE focused then God of War, actually did interesting stuff with it's QTE's and to this day is IMO the only "cInematic" QTE based game that actually works and pulls it off well. That being saiid, I don't get why people are shitting on Nu-God of War for being "cinematic" when the series always has been to an extent.

Asura's Wrath also does something I think is worth consideration in disscusion of the accuracy of Nu-GoW: It's not that accurate to Buddhist or Hindu Mythology in strict terms, in that it's mpstly fiictional characters and it plays pretty loosily with the few specific gods, other supernatural beings, or items from those mythologies in the game, but it does the "tone" of hinduism justice by having similar themes and doing the batshit, crazy DBZ esque nature of the myhos justice.

I don't thiink Nu-GoW changing the motivations, relationships, and personalities of elements of their mythology around is a problem so long as it's doing something interesting with those changes or is still doing the core themes and tone of norse mythology justice. No clue if it does or not though.

>>14687347

>Still better than africa.

Subsaharan africa, sure, but I'd actually argue that the Scandinavians/other Indo-European proto-states were fairly comparable to West African civilizations/kingdoms in complexity, and they were just able to better benefit from what infrastructure and social complexity Classical Antiquity left over, wheras West African's empires and kingdoms had less to exploit and build off of.

That being said, I'm not well informed about the society or accomplishments of either region, i'm just going off what i've seen/learned over time with them: Both had relatively primitive architectural and urban-design/cities, basically having villages to large towns moreso then urban cities, some some degree of sociial complexity with royalty and kingdoms but lacking the hugely complex bureaucratic systems of say fertile crescent/Mediterranean bronze/iron age/classical antiquity cultures,, later medieval Europe, ancient/medieval far east with China and south/southeast asian eempires, the Classical/Postclassical Mesoamericans; the or the Andeans past 400 AD or so, etc.

Though I think by the actual time of the vikings in 1000 CE, they were more comparably to the rest of medivial europe, but for most of the iron age I I think the comparison to West Africa is accurate.

Prioritizing cinematic shit over gameplay is a fair point and one of the good criticisms you can make about the game. I'm not denying that. I'm just pointing out that he's far fetched as fuck and nitpicking things that aren't bad as "criticism". For example, the mythology was never respected in GoW games and honestly as the game is good that doesn't matter. Accurate representation of mythology doesn't make a game good.

Same as just saying "this thing is the same as Bioshock" without saying why a Bioshock thing is band.

I wonder how much of the complaints over this stuff would subside if we just split the medium in two.

/v/ is very much on the side that they want videogames to be games, and as such gameplay and mechanics are paramount. Other people see it more as a storytelling medium with interactive elements.

Niether approach is inherently wrong, but the demographic for each thing is mostly separate.

It isn't. I don't know what you're talking about. Him talking isn't gameplay. You don't have to feed him or do anything for him. You don't even have to heal him. He has infinite health. All the "babysitting" you're talking about is Kratos doing it in cutscenes and the cover art. You're specifically making an argument about gameplay with a point that has nothing to do with gameplay.

His voice is less annoying. What he says is more annoying. So it balances out.

c23fef No.14687559

>>14687527

I would say the approach to prioritize storytelling is wrong. Not game breaking by any means, but definitely somewhat demeaning. Take films as a medium, for example. Films made great advances and breakthroughs by learning new cinematographic techniques. Music and special effects never did anything to advance the medium, and are often used as an excuse to make a shitty movie with big investment in music and special effects to woo the casual audience. The art of films is in cinematography, much like the art of games is in gameplay, and that is the aspect that should be worked on.

Then explain why Sony is changing existing franchises and making cinematic games out of them instead of making new IPs? Oh wait, they want to take a recognisable character so they don't need to do much legwork whilst also using the "cinematic" excuse to do less work. After all, a cutscene/forced walking segment doesn't require as much bug testing than a game that lets the player do whatever they want.

He only does if you specifically tell him to shoot arrows. As a help, so you can catch the enemies off guard. I can see how you can use this a criticism of the gameplay. What doesn't work is you calling this "babysitting".

>music and special effects never did anything to advance the medium

This is a load of shit though, those things have absolutely allowed the medium to advance and do things that weren't possible before/greatly enhances, just the same as new cinematographical techniques have.

Pairing music andaudip with the actual films vs just having it be silent allows for you to set the tone and have audio play a role in the actual narrative in a seamless way, stuff like pratical effects and CGI allow you to show things that otherwise isn't possible, as does compositing, etc.

That's honestly one of the dumbest things i've ever heard. If your arguement were true, then the actual narrative of the film would be irrelevant either, only the shot composition would be, and at that point it's just fucking photography.

>>14687600

That arguement might hold true in some cases, but I don't think it does in GoW's case. Weren't prior GoW games highly linear, directed games to begin with?

>those things have absolutely allowed the medium to do things that weren't possible before

That's like saying "adding a dildo to the controller allowed the medium to do things that weren't possible before". The fact that you can do new things doesn't mean those things are good. You can usually tell the same story in a movie by using cheaper special effects and it won't have an impact to the overall tone, storytelling or pacing. They're just eye candy.

As for the point about music, I never talked about sound. Good music helps a movie but shouldn't be the main focus


920b4a No.14687712

>>14687618

20 years+ of CGI have done nothing but make movies shittyer and shittyer

as for the music, it's not what music you use, it's how you use it, does it fit with the action on screen or do you just put some high note here and there for a cheap jumpscare?, i do believe that anything can get better with a god OST behind it, but latelly all i hear are some variations of the Inception horns, that said i must admit music is the less shitty part of current movies, although there's also been decline in that departament as well

It was both. They copied DMC for almost everyhting and then pasted the Greek aspect and the chains from Rygar.

Also, there is a mural that shows Tyr walking across different cultures hinting at a war between Norwegian, Greek, Shinto and Egyptian mythology war. So either good old Kratos will take on Shinto and Egyptians in the Ragnarok or have the next two trilogies be on Egypt and Japan.

Wrong and right at the same time.

All the white women i've been with had slack pussies it was like waving a pencil in a cave, but the Asian and Chinese chicks I've had had a really tight grip it was like that movie Teeth with one Chinese chick, so tight my dick felt like it was in a vice grip.

I can only surmise it's because Asian chicks are in better shape so their bodies are tighter than white chicks. But let me tell you anons, i thought the pussy on my chinese gf was tight until she let me put it in her arse, as soon as i slipped in my cock bareback to her anus i almost shot a load right away as it was the tightest hole i've ever put my cock into.
