You're basically censoring anyone who has anything negative to say lmao
I didn't say you can't say something negative, but if it's because a game is linear or has "hallways", then you might as well go after nearly every action game ever. Some have metroidvania aspects or open ended areas, but at the end of the day, you're still following the linear path or eventually go down the only one direction to progress.
he two Nordic games put me to sleep tho, couldn't even be bothered to finish Ragnarök.
GoW III put me to sleep by the last 2/3, yet I was able to finish it.
DmC: Definitive Edition, Dante's Inferno and
Marlow Briggs I find better than the entire
Greek Era saga. I am not sorry.
The gameplay looks interesting, more fluid than the 2 earlier games.
But what bugs me is that this game doesn't seem like a GOW game at all. If you remove the God Of War title from it, no one would figured it's a game of this series, just when the main character specifically mentions Kratos and Atreus. Because gameplay wise, characters, and everything is completely different. It's not that change it's a bad thing, but I feel like this game more than ever and the 2 games before has been more and more distant from it's roots.
There are elements of
GoW in there, just put in a different direction. What you're saying is what certain really hardcore fans were saying in a panic back when
GoW4 got announced in 2016. "Nothing feels
GoW". They're at least changing it up for the right reasons, and it is not a bad thing. I appreciate the shake up. You can't be doing the same thing forever and ever. Hence why the shake up happened in the first place.
What if i find the game a movie with no gameplay? I may share an opinion as long as its valid from you point of view?
And that's the shit I am talking about right there. These games do have gameplay. There is clear gameplay here in this new title, and it's not going to be a "50-100 hour movie walk-a-thon with no/little gameplay". That's just stupid hyperbole that has always been bullshit, or extreme exaggeration to hate something. Look I don't like the forced walking sections either, but at least most of them were made skippable in their respective updates. Though that one with Angrboða can fuck off. Not the character, but her whole walking sections go one for way too long, and should have just been a long cut-scene that is skippable. Otherwise, both previous do have a lot of combat and exploration going for them. Even though the exploration is simplified. With the jump button being back in the game, this should be remedied now.
Sorry but this is not God Of War to me
"Not my God of War/Not God of War to me". It was never yours to begin with. Franchises change for the better or the worse. Look, I know not everyone is going to agree with every single change, but the series had move on for a reason. As much great as the Greek era did, fatigue eventually set in. Norse era still respects the legacy, but it's not afraid to move their title character further (especially in the free DLC for
Ragnarok), or learn that they can't keep him angry 24/7. Yes, I know that PSP versions and
GoW II have subtle moments, but by
II & III especially, we're literally given not much reasons to care what happens to Kratos.
Whenever I see purple in a modern game, it's a warning sign to me that dogshit dialogue is guaranteed. I don't know what it is about purple.
True, didn't even notice the similarities. Definitely not a good a sign
Purple ain't inherently bad, and don't be hater towards the color purple. Just because you didn't like the previous
Dragon Age (none of them I find really good in general, and the first game being the worst to even play again, if trying to play the PC version [not optimized for modern PC and hard to get unless you get a 360 copy]), doesn't mean a modern game using purple as a major color theory or theme is automatically bad. That's just you with eyes clouded by hate, and asinine speculation/paranoia over nothing. Learn to grow and man the fuck up people.
Right now you're both are falling into grifter rabbit conspiracy bullshit. I will have none of it. If you wish to please them that much, then leave the thread now. You have no reason to be here then, since you think otherwise.
This is purple being used to
symbolize the power and/or coolness of a character, whether the character is badass, of
Royal Blood, or something else.
This trope existed at least as far back as
Bible Times, where the purple dye
Tekhelet
was mostly limited to Tabernacle tapestries and high priests' robes in Israel thanks to how hard it was to procure— it could only be sourced from certain species of predatory sea snails, thousands of which had to be captured and carefully crushed in order to dye a reasonably sized garment. This more famously bled over into Phoenicia and
The Roman Empire, whose own
"Tyrian Purple" could only be worn by government officials and
the exorbitantly wealthy. Purple later became a common color for
royal robes in Europe, where the legacy and romanticizing of Western Rome was deeply felt after its fall (
translatio imperii). It was also the color worn by cardinals of the Roman Catholic Church, before this was changed to the more familiar scarlet.
Some time later, purple became associated with either
femininity, or fell on the evil side of
Good Colors, Evil Colors (like
the Joker). But for those that thought
Evil Is Cool, it just helped purple be seen as a cool color. Then it became a stereotypical color for
Pimp Duds, and it was definitely cool again. Can be considered a
Yin-Yang Bomb when you consider that purple is red and blue combined.
Not a "movie game garbage". Cut bullshit and quit being a blind hater. Norse Saga has humanity. TLOUS pretends to or thinks it has humanity.
