(+) Yeah! (+)

I already found Tyr so Ill probably be waiting a bit. But dont want to leave extra health/rage

In that case, I imagine you'll be able to backtrack very shortly, but I haven't tried it myself to be sure.

LMFAOOOO
Playing as Boi and he cant punch through the chest without hurting himself

These samurai fuckers are TUFFFFF

Light elf warrior*

Is it me or is Kratos faster with the Blade of Chaos than he was in God of War?

2018 or original?

Youll see many more button clams today

2018.

Feels the same to me

I'm still early in the game (about an hour in), and just got to the part where you first meet Odin and Thor. Odin kinda sounds like a mob boss, lol

He really does have that vibe lol

Vanadil, first valk is spreading my cheeks

DANGGGG holy shit

Just got to the dwarf city. Pretty great so far. I do hate how Mimir and Atreus give you the answers to every puzzle though. Should have just left it to puzzles you don't have the items for yet.

I liked the hud way more without the compass but now I'm afraid to turn it off for my first playthrough lol

Wtf squirrel

Either the miniboss I just fought was bugged or I completely missed what you were supposed to be doing. Given that I didn't get any of the constant hints the game likes to give you, I'm leaning towards bugged.

In Vanaheim, there's a side quest where you fight a recurring miniboss from the first game. It's one of those big rock elemental dudes. You'd already fought one previously in this level and it worked the same as the first one: attack when it opens its core, that builds up a load of stun, do an R3 on it. But this one only opened its core to do a homing laser attack which requires you to block it. And if you got close to it at all, it would immediately close up and an unblockable AoE slam. It never once did the attack where it shoots a bunch of fireballs at you which you can parry back at it or just dodge and hit him.

I tried everything I could think of. It didn't seem to have any interaction with the Runic Arrows. It somehow took half its health bar at one point from being poisoned, so I tried that. But my poison attack wouldn't do it, nor would luring it through the pools of poison in the arena.

I finally whittled it down with arrows and eating a laser to throw an axe, but I'm certain that's not how it's supposed to work.

The elven side quest is a doozy

Really enjoyed the Secret of the Sands sidequest

So what do you guys think of Angrboda?

She's great. You can see how they designed her specifically to be charming lol.

I think

I ship her and Atreus lol

does anyone know if you can do the side-quests whenever you want?

I'm trying to prioritize the story, but if the side stuff ends up feeling meaningful/well-written, I don't mind trying it out.

With Thor being in the game, I kinda assumed that Mjolnir would be attainable at some point.

Apparently it is not.

im just doing them as I see them. I rarely go back for 2nd runs, so Im trying to get everything I can out of the first.

thanks

I've noticed a reoccurring bug where a prompt won't appear. Saving and reloading fixes it, but it's still annoying.

I've found one or two that are whatever, but they're just on the path of more substantial ones. Most of them have some pretty great dialogue to go along with them.

yea, I think I've only come across one so far (the first one), but I ended up skipping it for the story.

Holy shit, The Maven is absolutely clapping my cheeks.

I saw Ragnorak and thought this was a Record of Ragnorak topic. I'm disappointed.

Managed to kill that boss, you need to be way more aggressive than it initially seems.

Im watching that Maximilian dude guy play it now, it seems really sappy tbh for GoW.

Cinematic as fuck though.

Oh, I walked ass first into the Valkyrie equivalent of this game <_<

I would also like to report that I hate those mine-dropping, dark elf motherfuckers just as much as I did in the first game.

Since this game is significantly harder than the "first" one, that could be multiple things.

I'm not completely positive since I've only fought the one, but I'd still bet money they're it. The one I fought was right outside the area you get the item to start the side-quest which indicates it's the easiest one and it was still pretty tough. There are a dozen of them scattered across the realms. The one I fought dropped an armor piece and the ore you need to upgrade it. And they're ruled over by a king which I have to imagine is Sigryn's equivalent.

Just a lot of parallels between the two.

I, uh, I thought you were talking about other unusually hard bosses. I didn't realize you were talking about THAT since I didn't encounter THAT until just now...

ONE FUCKING HIT DID THAT????

Yeah lol.

I found it mostly manageable, but I've been playing pretty completionist, so I might have more health/better gear than you maybe.

Idk the game seems to be heavily foreshadowing/hinting at Kratos dying. Could be completely God of Boi next game?

not sure how far I am, so no confirm/deny pls

Light elves are so god damn difficult. 3 of them can take me out with ease.

Found a guy that one shots me with 100% hp. Fun
