God Of War: Ragnarok (Nov. 9th, 2022) (PS4/PS5) (Valhalla DLC out 12/12/2023)

Ain't even started Ragnorak yet. I'm still getting my ass THOROUGHLY handed to me on GOW

Just finished Helheim. Beat the troll at the gate and thought I was done until I left the room and got hemmed up by a Traveler on the bridge .

So much fukkery. Can't wait to start Ragnorak.

this is one of the more difficult games. maybe bc i'm new, but even on "Normal", enemies do a decent chunk

Someone call testuya nomura and tell him THAT'S how u do a story right. None of that bullshyt in KH3's ending where they're raising more questions than answering

Be prepared for some
Real bullshyt snubs and you know why

 

[Illuminatos]

Just finished. Put in about 34 hours. Probably the best story I’ve ever played in a video game. I was on the edge of my seat from start to finish.

 

[ALonelyDad]

So much to do in Vanaheim second time you go

Spoiler

Killed all the dragons, flooded the area and beat the Berserker on first try

Doing this now before proceeding with story, my favorite area

Man, I'm not even at what I assume to be the parts where he does the most work, but he's killing this shyt. You can feel how over all this shyt Kratos is just from his voice.

Who would've thought Teal'c would be out here putting in work?

Can I do that at any time or is it time sensitive? Was planning on saving it for last tbh.

gotta laugh at people who dont think god of war has just as good gameplay as it has story, thats what makes sony games great, they don’t lack in anything.

Same thing with TLOU2, best 3rd person stealth/shooting gameplay in the industry.

Saying is not good is legit dumb but I don't think it's beyond criticism either, I felt basically nothing changed from a game from 2018. Crucible was way less fun this time around because of it

I just read the first line, but I think a Loki game could work. It would just need to be clearly defined as its own game in the same family, as opposed to a direct sequel. Going off of mythology, Loki gets into enough fukkery that the plot of him trying to play all sides against each other would be enough to carry it. But making it a third person action-RPG with light Souls style combat like this series would be a mistake. If they wanted to get real experimental with it, they could make it a Hitman/later game Splinter Cell style game.

Journey Into Mystery/Fear Itself Loki

This game was a slog get through. I didn't do any side quests and seems like it took forever. Story is good but the game design is outdated and repetitive. Tedious puzzles and stale combat. After games with interesting combat like Ghost of Tsuhima this just doesn't cut it.

Spoiler: boss fight

Garm be like

Yeah you can save it

 

[Cuban Pete]

Yeah, and really they exhausted anything loki could do so far as norse mythology is concerned.
Has to be a move to a different patheon regardless if they continue this series.

The four symbols in Tyrs chamber where the Celtic, Japanese, Egyptian and Greek. And a certain side characters background and accent along with dialogue in this game suggests to me that Celtic is the next one, but Tyr has Egypt tattoos so they could still easily go in that direction too.

Celtic gods are too similar to Norse but we could get some good fights/story beats out of gods like The Morrigan, Cernunnos, Lugh and The Dagda (Celt mythology is decent). The Celt gods could fight but just like the Norse theyre more mortal so I dont see them as a major threat to Kratos

Egypt on the other hand, the power scaling is closer to the Greek gods being that they were also immortal and had the same abilities and powerful magic. And Egypt is alot closer to Greece than Scandinavia is so they could tie up loose ends.

Or just throw us a curve ball and have Kratos battle the Greek gods again but reborn as the ROMAN gods, exposing how futile it is to fight against the gods themselves
