I think I might check out 2018 real quick. Because I can’t understand how I can almost platinum this game, but that one I was done as soon as the story was over.

It wasn’t bad obviously, but idk.

Good luck I tried going back to it and couldnt get used to the controls again. You really feel the missing upgraded combat and movement in ragnarok after you play 2018 again

Breh, I can literally start NG+ right now in Ragnarok. That’s how good this game is.

I got all these upgrades n shyt.

I looked online and a decent amount of people say 2018 is better. I don’t think so tbh.

I can see if you like the smaller, more focused narrative, basically the same as TLOU. We have to go there *points* and thats the journey

But actual gameplay wise, it doesn’t really hold a candle to how good the sequel plays. For both games. Theres a simple truth in that people are prisoners of nostalgia, you can’t recreate their first time experiencing a new story so the sequel will never live up to the first iteration for them

The narrative is slightly better in 2018. I don't think any moment in Ragnarok topped the chains moment or the Baldur fight. But from a strictly gameplay level Ragnarok is much better. And i kinda hated the new controls at first but you see what they were going for once the gameplay clicks for you.

But I can always and still do from time to time load up 2018 and fight Sigrun. That fight will never get old.

Got the plat on this game and surprisingly I enjoyed it, never played the first one either lol. Didot even plan on getting it but I wanted a ps5 and it came with the game:yeshrug:


I didn’t care for artreus as a character or a gameplay element at all tho:scust:, and some of the bosses were a bytch, but I found out about realm shifting and bosses were a breeze. But overall I had a good time

I’m playing 2018 and I can’t believe how much of an a$$hole Kratos was back then.

He telling Atreus and Mimir to STFU. No type of humor.

“Boy!! Read it!!” “Shut up head!!”

:mjlol: :mjlol:

I don’t even remember feeling like this about him when I first played it.

I guess it’s because he went from a screaming angry maniac in the OG GOW to a cold and calm a$$hole in 2018.

He’s really a brand new person in ragnarok.

Breh went from calling him boy to saying he’s Atreus’ champion.

:mjcry::mjcry:

Yeah, its hard to go back to a$$hole kratos. I like Naruto Kratos that inspires his friends and family with the confidence of a general and benevolent god

Now what are you gonna do?
Finish the reaming Asgard Remnants, fight the dragon on the beach, then find the Tyr locations.

I believe that’s all that’s left.

I fought the stone trolls, I saw Thurd, talked to the turtle. I think that was all of the other optional stuff.

2018 ain’t got shyt on this, but I’m playing it on the side as well.

:ehh::ehh:
