just like they did in the trailer. most of the actual combat is just scripted animations and in-game cutscenes. it's a boring moviegame.

Have you ever been to a forest? That's what real life looks like. They are not going to change the way that the forest looks because some random game adapted it before.

The camera would probably pan out with big bosses. Gameplay looks about the same, well against two mooks and a pseudo boss at least.

That is Jormungand. It translates to Great Beast or World Snake or Midgard (earth) Serpant.

Literally wraps around the world. One of the 3 great children of Loki and giantess Angrbooa. Other children are Hel (beautiful giant woman who rules over the underworld of the dead) and Fenrir the famous wolf of the great marsh. Jormungand is the eternal enemy to the gods, Thor especially

How did this series go from fast paced arcadey jumping slashing over the top combat to Ryse? Don't get me wrong, I'm super down for the beginning of Kratos killing a new pantheon of gods, especially norse, but fuck me if that combat and presentation doesn't sour me. Also the name. At least give it a fucking subtitle.
>>
This will be GOTY 2018.
https://youtu.be/p2X2y2ZkJYM?t=554
>>
>>341880194
Why would Kratos kill the norse gods though? Those guys are pretty chill in comparison to the greek gods and don't really fuck with mortals. You know who fucks with mortals? The fucking frost giants. Kratos tearing shit up in Jotunheim is something I'd be 100% down for.
>>
>>341879718
After 3 proper games in like 12 years? The last being what, like 2009 or something.

Of course not. Plus God if War has always been straight into the action, epic bosses and arenas and a cool setting.

People got sick of Uncharted because the quality is all over the place and there were 4 proper games in about 6 years.
>>
>>341880373
This. Thor even has the title of "Protector of Mankind".
The only bastard in the norse pantheon would be Loki.
>>
>>341880373
Because Kratos. Also there must be some bullshit about how his wife was killed by the gods. Because some valkyrie chick.
>>
>>341879718
>I always thought people were kind of sick of it
they were until they turned it into TLoU. now that GoW is a movie you can enjoy it without the hassle of playing it
>>
>>341880373
Yeah, logically it doesn't make any sense, but I'm sure they'll make the norse gods real assholes to justify it. Besides, I'm kind of enamored with the idea of Kratos killing all gods of all polytheistic religions and that being the reason why nobody follows that shit anymore.
>>
>>341880194
I assume what we saw at e3 was the intro/tutorial. It will probably get faster as the game goes forward

I do agree about the name, hell if it is Kratos it should just be God of War4

The theory goes that Kratos fathered Ullr with Sif who is Thor's wife and Thor, pissed, is sending agents to kill them for it which doesn't make sense because iirc Thor is just Ullr's stepdad and doesn't give a shit in the myths

Did the God of War games ever get good? I kinda wrote the series off after the first game being really shitty but that was probably unfair to the franchise as a whole.

DMC3 came out like a month earlier and was a vastly superior game. Here on /v/ God of War fans were ridiculed back in the day for this and the game was constantly shit on, with good reason I might add but I think in my mind that gave the entire God of War name an undeserved bum rap.

That was DMC3 vs God of War 1 and there have been dozens of God of War games since then and it's not like the intervening years have been very kind to our old pal Dante.

So the question is have there been any truly excellent God of War games, like yeah the first one is really rough and shitty especially for someone coming off DMC3 a month earlier but they've made tons of these games now there has to be one really good one at least.

What was the high point of the franchise? When did it finally hit it's stride and make a game that evolved beyond being a shitty DMC clone with a greek mythology theme?

I feel you. Might be cool on its own terms, though--and depending on how the bosses and puzzles turn out it's possible the game will resemble the old ones more than anyone expects. We already know the set pieces and huge bosses will be returning.

>>341882434
You have to remember the context anon. GOW1 might have been good 7/10 and a good first effort but this was after Devil May Cry 3. Like a right after, GOW came out in march where DMC3 came out in February and that game fucking kills it. And you, the guy who just spent a month honing your skills on DMC3 get pushed into this simple as fuck game with "SICK EXECUTIONS" as a selling point but with the mechanical depth of a puddle. Ninja Gaiden was a respected entry, that game pushed the genre forward and in a lot of ways built off what the first DMC had done.

If you were a fan of the genre, which at that point only really consisted of the three DMC games and Ninja Gaiden for the Xbox playing this new upstart clone right after a new pinnacle had been reached is pretty rough on appraisals. They were nearly directly competing.

God of War always had a broader focus though. The first game in particular carried more general action-adventure ambitions, whereas DMC has always been a 3D beat 'em up, give or take.

As someone that never really liked "character action" games (save for the first 3D NG) I always liked God of War for this reason. Spectacle alone made it more interesting.

Stating facts isn't shilling. All descriptions point to the game being more like a more linear Zelda than Uncharted. Barlog confirmed the footage that was shown was chosen to demonstrate the new and unexpected stuff. Puzzles, combat, set pieces are all returning, with a new emphasis on exploration. That doesn't mean the game will be good, but it doesn't sound much like Uncharted or TLoU.
>>341886925
It's different because the entire dynamic is different. The troll fight seemed similar to fights against cyclops in previous games, or fights against big enemies in--forgive the overused comparison--Souls games.

Calm down, people. I reckon this is just the intro sequence of the game. Kratos dies or is otherwise put out of commission some point after this and we take control of the little brat for a good chunk of the game. Notice the "Knowledge gained" popups throughout this demonstration and how we took control of the kid for the archery part. You are literally crying about 10 minutes of railroading at the beginning of a triple A game. Which is standard practice nowadays.

He said that there's more exploration this time but not exactly open world. Puzzles and combat are still around. Unless the style of puzzles is completely different to previous games, I wouldn't be surprised if it's fairly Zelda-ish or Soul Reaver-ish.

Everyone knew if gow were to ever get another sequel it would have to move on to new mythologies since kratos just about killed all the gods and demigods in gow 3. I think he also destroyed the world in gow 3 iirc. They will probably pull an explanation out their ass that there are multiple universes filled ruled by different mythology gods.

Welcome to modern AAA games. A lot of AAA games open with heavy story to get the game in motion. Look at MGSV.

Yes, the new God of War opens differently from the old ones. I played those, too. That doesn't mean the new one will be that way the entire time, though.
>>
>>341888850
The game is all about teaching.

Kratos is going to teach his boy how to slay the pussy.

MGSV didn't focus on heavy story you retard.

And yes it does. It will be on-rails TLOU inspired shit.

that woman was literally a sex slave of the gods that was competently innocent.

>avoiding tripwires

>zombies and ladders

Those weren't puzzles. They were platforms for character exposition. This is something TLoU does often. The ladders are there merely to keep you interested and in the world instead of blankly staring at a screen holing the left stick forward.

>avoiding the enemies is a puzzle

This is beyond retarded. By your logic MGS 1 through 3 aren't stealth action games, they're puzzle games.

The opening was a very cinematic tutorial nonetheless, though. That's my point.

Okay, baby girl.

I'm willing to wait for more to determine what the game is. I admit you could be right. My guess is that you're being an overly reactionary clitoris eager to get inflamed over something though.
>>341889978
I have similar worries. The troll fight looked okay, but nothing special. Different weapons and enemies may liven things up. My biggest worry is the camera, but at least it seems to draw back for the action.

And it was the worst part of the game. You didn't elaborate your point at all.

Yes. But it wasn't the only thing the game did. Similarly, I doubt GoW4's opening is all that indicative of what the entire game is like. It could be, but given various comments Barlog has made about the game I doubt it. Your predictions could be true, but it's too early to make that call.

I'm not implying you're upset so much as just an idiot judging a game on very little information for the sake of shitposting in a Burmese podiatrist office.
