The entire point of GoW was that its sony's flagship combo mashin beat em slashin rip roarin good time until 4 happened.

Now we have a the last of us clone thats going to sell buhgorillions because of muh atmosphere and muh story when really all we wanted was to rip thors head off and throw it at odin.

God of war without the combat is literally nothing.

If they simpify the puzzles as well its completely hopeless and will still sell far more than any recent gow simply because the install base.

This is like some weirdly bad mixture of Skyrim and The Last of Us. It is as if some retarded Sony Exec looked at what sold really well, and what had really high scores and tried to just mesh them together.

The father child thing has a recent tie to TLoU. And that melee string is almost identical to TLoU/Uncharted ones.

Kratos slides into the animation for the string, no actual combo as far as we can see just hitting square until the cinematic finisher.

The animations even jankedly switch to an environment kill against the rock like in TLoU/Uncharted.

bad because most companies (especially Santa Monica) don't do it right. Instead of taking a similar approach to games like Half Life, they just use it as an excuse to throw cutscenes at the player every 10 minutes, turning it into a walking cinematic experience rather than an actual game with a story.

>Soulsborne style combat
not necessarily bad on it's own right, but just knowing that it's not From or an associated studio/team means that they aren't going to factor in related systems to bring the combat in line. Things like the weapons/upgrade system, enemy AI, and player level/stat scaling all have a heavy hand in how combat works in Soulsborne games. If you spend all your points in Strength and nothing in Stamina, your giant axe is worthless because you can only swing it once before having to recuperate stamina. Or without levels/proper scaling, it just becomes a race of farming or obtaining a better weapon that can dispatch enemies in one/two hits instead of having the player level into that kind of build by proper stat allocation and upgrading their weapon to scale accordingly.

So it's not that these two things are bad in their own right, as different games have managed to incorporate these things in a valuable and enjoyable way. it's the fact that we're talking about a studio that doesn't know _how_ to do it, and instead just throws whatever is popular in game design at the wall and hope that it makes something decent.

The troll kill in the 'trailer' has me worried, was that a cutscene or a [god of war style] QTE kill? In fact the entirety of the 'combat' in the trailer looked very cinematic, as though the player had little agency - 'press x to murder Draugr.' The tight third person camera will, of course, also mean you'll see few enemies on screen at once no matter the combat system, it looks even too close for a good, and I use the term lightly, Arkham style combat system.

I'm worried it's going to be a super 'sinematic' game that'll wow casuals and journalists but be a shallow 'experience' rather than a proper action game.

You understand this game could take place over years right? Hell if its paced like TLOU then it probably will. The kid could start off hitting weak points and annoying enemies. If they are smart then he will fight differently based on how you train him. You could have a teenage son as muscular as you with a sword or a twink son sniping enemies or a son that does magic. If the game allows for you to change the kids playstyle based on how you parent him i could see the game having a ton of re playability. The kid leveling up seems promising more than it seems bad. Not to even mention if the 5th one lets us play as the kid if Kratos dies.

I'm fine with QTE's, God of War was one of the first games to really popularize them if I recall correctly, but in the trailer there's no button prompts or anything. The camera just cuts to Kratos getting pissed and then the troll kill happens fairly seamlessly which may simply be them not wanting to mar the imagery in the trailer with button prompts but given their talk of 'seamless experience,' 're imagining what the DNA of the series was' and the general trend of modern games it has me worried.

Maybe I'm being too pessimistic but to be honest I'd rather be pleasantly surprised than disappointed.
>>
>>343133879
Looks like the tutorial zone, which if you remember from the previous games, was also a trickle of enemies. I can almost see the "PRess and hold R2 to aim the Frozen Axe, then press Square to throw it." and the "PRess Square to attack the Dragur!" prompts.

It's a damned if you do damned if you don't situation. So far it seems uninteresting to me, the camera angle they showed and the way the Melee combat was working was EXTREMELY similar to how TLoU played. But i say the key here is wait and see.

As long as they don't trade the old cinematic style that didn't let you put the controller down and making you do shit as you finish your enemy for "just press X at the right time and watch the movie" i'll be fine with it

Don't they mostly make walking sims these days? I also don't really care for the kid. All the things that made me love Kratos' character seems absent too. In a weird way the game kind of reminds me of The Last of Us. I didn't mind TLoU but it's not what I want in a God of War game. Or maybe I'm just becoming and old, jaded fuck. I'll probably try it eventually because I love the series.

I think it's less that they want the same games and more that they don't want series to change for the sake of change and definiteyl not change to follow what are often considered bad trends.

From what little we've seen of the game there's no reason for it to be a God of War game, you could replace Kratos with generic Berserker and nothing changes. It doesn't look like God of War, it doesn't play like God of War, the story that we've seen is only tangentially related to God of War so why call it God of War?

On the remake/reboot/reimagining scale the trailers so far tend more towards the forced and pointless changes of Syndicate than the initially poorly presented but surprisingly quite good modern conceits of Deus Ex:Human Revolution.

You're looking at it too black and white. They can change the gameplay and still remain true to the original. Look at the new Zelda. They're innovating but the core gameplay that makes 3D Zelda great is still there for the most part. The fans who were disappointed with Skyward Sword are very pleased with what's been shown so far too. That's why you're seeing mixed opinions on this game. It's a bit extreme. It's making some fans who wanted change happy while alienating those who wanted the classic action game.

I know what you're trying to say. But I disagree. It's a very easygoing game but it still requires a lot of input from the player to progress. It's certainly not one of those railroaded experiences where you just press a button once in a while. Just a nice game to chill to, calm the fuck down anon

I think it's a worrying sign that they keep talking about "Kratos" and saying things like "him" and "he", instead of referring to the player directly. It seems to be diminishing the player's role in gameplay and taking control away from the player, which is never a good thing.

Also the combat looks awful compared to the previous games.
>>

Seriously can developers stop with the whole "we want the players to play the way they WANT to play"

Pretty sure I heard that every five minutes at e3
>>
>>343139730
>awful compared to the previous games
what are you talking about? the camera in the older games is so far distant from kratos and not intimate at all, also there were all those cutscenes that weren't seamless transitions.
>>
>>343140020
The irony here is that this very style of game prohibits players from doing just that. Pretty much everyone who played The Last of Us played the same game in the same way, whereas the previous God of War games gave players the tools to fuck around and naturally and comfortably play their own way. It's regression in the name of progress.
>>
>>343125557
Personally didn't enjoy the first 4 God of War games and loved TLoU so I'm pretty excited for this. Hopefully they go with the theory that Kratos will die and the kid will take over, or the one where Kratos becomes Odin and the son becomes Thor.

Why exactly did people care about the story and characters in God of War?

I loved the first two games (never played 3) because it felt like a decent story used to put Kratos in cool places to kill cool enemies. It was fun and looked great.

Who the fuck are these people who want the gameplay to change and the story of Kratos redeeming himself to take center stage?
>>
>>343140775

You don't have to try hard, though. It's the antithesis of what God of War is. They're making a completely different game and giving it the GoW skin.

It may be a good game in the end, but it won't be a God of War game.
