The game obviously looks and sounds great but the revenge story is what keeps me moving. You can reduce it to being just Kratos killing everyone, and that would be correct, but its cool to see what will happen next and the games final hours really wrap up in an exciting way. These production values were off the charts in 2007 compared to whatever JRPG was on the market. The gameplay is simple but I like that. I dont want to do stylish action. With God of War, I like just hitting a few buttons and things die in front of me. Theres some amount of depth here but you dont need to go SSSSSS++++ in order to succeed and have fun. Sometimes its okay to just hit square-square-triangle a lot. The in-fight cutscenes are of course fun to watch play out. QTE is a relic of the past now but its still fun to press the button prompts and watch gods get destroyed. The visuals dont pop now like they did in 2007 when this game pushed the PS2 to its absolute limits, but I kinda like that its not all HD and beautiful. God of War got unnecessarily gory and brutal following this game and its actually the last God of War that Ive played (well, besides the PSP games). GOW2 is still brutal but it feels justified through the narrative. This is a game that I can get a ways into and then just get sucked in until I finish it. Its fun and thats all I need. --- xyzzy <cite>transience posted [p:932087130] in transience...
