What's the gameplay like though? I still haven't gotten a good vibe from videos. Is it 3d beat em up like those old games, is it more action rpg like a kh game, or more action rpg like a wrpg, maybe something like those elder scrolls games.

I was skeptical of it too, but I think I enjoy the combat more than the older ones. It's much more reactive. --- https://imgur.com/Er6TT https://imgur.com/Er6TT https://imgur.com/Er6TT So?

Is it 3d beat em up like those old games, is it more action rpg like a kh game, or more action rpg like a wrpg, maybe something like those elder scrolls games. I'm going to have to go all IGN here so I'm sorry, but it's hard to explain otherwise - its really meaty and weighty and you really feeeeeel like a God. Like you know how they've always tried and failed to make a Hulk game because they never managed to make it feel like you're playing The Hulk? It's like a successful version of that. Every time you swing that axe or pick someone up or flip over a house sized boulder there's a weight to it that feels authentic and visceral. The boss fights are designed with that epic sense of scale in mind. Kratos is a god, but he's old, worn out and tired of everyone's shit. You aren't some speedy ninja and you aren't a mindless hulk smashing beast. You're an angry old man who's got God-level kids on his lawn. In less woolly terms The combat is something like a Souls game, but less punishing and with more cool DMC-like combos. There's some QTE-lite events but you rarely feel annoyed by it because the game doesn't often make you mash buttons during a cutscene out of the blue. It's more just that you get these finishing moves that play themselves out and it's fun to watch. Also, the Leviathan Axe mechanic is one of the coolest things to ever happen in a videogame. It's just so clever and fun to throw that thing away and recall it whenever you want. In short, the combat is fucking awesome and I found myself almost always enjoying going into battle. --- CE's Resident Scotsman. https://imgur.com/ILz2ZbV ... Copied to Clipboard!

Yeah I wouldn't say I was a fan of the old games either, they were less Zelda-like than I was originally led to believe, which is why I got them, for the puzzle solving.
The gameplay of this new one kind of looks like dark souls or shadows of mordor or just "those" kinds of games which I've never been a fan of. Intrigued by the story though --- ... Copied to Clipboard!

I felt it was more DMC like than Dark Souls like, but with slightly less infinite combos. Kind of Ghost of Tsushima in a way.

I find a lot in DMC you end up killing an enemy with a lame move instead of a big finisher, but this game gives you that satisfaction quite easily. --- CE's Resident Scotsman. https://imgur.com/ILz2ZbV ...

I thought it started out very disappointing
The first few hours were very hand-holdy, generic modern 3D Uncharted style action game, with weak combat and a first boss consisting of mostly QTEs Thankfully it opens up big time and the combat options grow and it became one of my favorite games of the gen --- The words of The Golden Eel have been revealed...

Happy to see someone else enjoy the game. I had an absolute blast playing it.
Word of advice: There is no "Best Armor" in the game; it's going to depend entirely on how you choose to play. I genuinely hope you enjoy the experience though; it's one of the best games of the PS4 and I'm still pumped to play Ragnarok when it releases. --- By Odin's beard! ... Copied to Clipboard!

Have you played the original trilogy? Played the first two, didn't get a chance at 3 regrettably because I skipped Sony console generation for the most part. I watched a plot summary to get up to speed though. I loved the old games too, but so so different from this. Lysandear posted... what first boss are you talking about that's mostly QTEs?

I used this even for most of my GMGOW NG+ playthrough, it's pretty good. It gives you invincibility frames, knocks enemies away when it gets too crowded, just really solid all around.

God of War is one of the best games ever made.
It's story is pretty underrated to me. Shit goes down throughout it with this weird lingering thought of why Kratos is even there. Also the progression of the world and gameplay. It starts off as a Zelda-like and ends up being some wierd mix of Destiny and Dark Souls. God this game was amazing. If it wasn't for BotW it might be game of the generation. --- Whoever beats my score I will give them a $10 PSN or Live card: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RpiorAx40GY ... Copied to Clipboard!
