I remember when GameSpot was a reputable source for gaming news
gamespot.com/articles/god-of-war-on-ps4-finally-fixes-the-series-boring-/1100-6457637/

just watch none of the hardcore GOW fans will buy this and the game will sell less then the sequels which will leave them wondering why it didn't do so well.

Game journalists aren't even trying anymore are they?

The old gameplay was getting stale and the new game looks amazing.
Fucking bring it on

And that's a good thing!

>ITT: we pretend GoW was a mindless button masher and this doesn't look like an improvement in every way

Nostalgiafags absolutely fucking seething

They're right, there's a very good reason why not only the God of War series fell off, but also that the hack and slash genre just fucking died, it's because the more you play them they just get fucking boring

You can seeth at me all you want, the numbers don't lie. I'm just the messenger here

Good. CUHRAAZY bullshit stuff like from the original games is only believable when the graphics aren't near reality. When you have games that are getting close to reality in terms of detail and are trying to incorporate some level of real world physics, gameplay like that just doesn't work because it becomes too ridiculous considering the context and the player can't get into it because it breaks a level of reality that you're willing to accept with enemies being juggled everywhere and taking a billion hits to down.

>for everyone else
biggest problem with vidya desu

Way obvious bait

And that's a good thing™

I always shoot the messenger.

>that subheading

So it's potentially disappointing to people who actually like the series but for people who never gave a fuck it might be cool. Alright.

Do those games not sell? Games like God of War, Dante’s Inferno, Darksiders and Star Wars Force Unleashed were amazing imo. Some of them just kind of fucked it up with the sequels.

You’re not wrong that the market has changed. it just a shame that the market is now so retarded they can’t manage the simple thought process to press buttons, and would rather watch some faggot on youtube.

The more I think about it, the more retarded it seems

Go away shill

God of War isn't cuhrayzee. There was no depth and everything fed into QTEs.

the reason the series fell off was because the story was, for a time at least, over
The only reason it's coming back is for Sony to try and milk it for all it's worth,which is why 99% of franchises are brought back after some time in the grave

The ones I see people always bring up are DMC and Bayonetta. DMC had a failed reboot that and Bayonetta has never sold well

God I wish Dante inferno came out like God of war 4
Then it'd be more dark souls esque but with a full on Christian killing demons theme instead of dark souls discount greek theme mixed with demons

Good to see that souls combat is getting popular.

That’s a fucking hilarious title considering it t was hard to find a review for the originals who DIDNT like the combat. The only boring ones I can think would be 1 in comparison to 2 and 3, because no sub weapons or alternate weapons, and Ascension because once again same issue.

Jesus Christ when are we going to stop trusting these two-faced reviewers who only say what benefits then instead of being objective? I shouldn’t even be surprised that everyone who attends an “early event” for any type of media always has the same hollow, good things to say about said product.

God of War combat has literally always been shit, but the new game doesn't look any better.

I have never played a GoW game.
Convince me to get this one.

Man I remember thinking “oh boy look at all those GoW clones we are gonna drown in now” and then it just kind of stopped. I also really liked the first Castlevania lords of shadow but never played the sequel

What's wrong with it?

You're speaking out of your ass. But ok.

Too bad EA killed that franchise it really had potential to be much better

The new game is literally nothing but spamming R1, stfu you moron.

nobody cares about combat in general, look at best selling games, shooters or open world games that have awful combat, what open world game has combat that is even close to god of war?

Are you implying that games using more buttons are more complicated?

I mean, they aren't wrong. GoW was always the boringist cuhrazy game I've ever had the misfortune of playing.

I can live with bad combat if the world design/story/music/visuals are lifting it up. Likewise a game with good combat but shitty everything else.

Are you really going to pretend GoW combat wasn't faceroll easy even on higher difficulties?

Play any fighting game or even a hack n slash like DMC and don't post on this site ever again you fucking cretin.

Is it just me or is someone running a bot here?

It was pretty boring to slash and sling your chain weapons at enemies for what felt like and eternity sometimes before they went down tbqh

This. Atleast GoW1 had those bullshit box/puzzle segments that would fuck you 10 ways from sideways. Doing that opening boat part on God mode with the fucking archers? fuck that noise.

Already did and I want something new, like the new GoW.

>fixes the series' boring combat
ffs what?
the only explanation is that they didnt show us real combat yet

I don't remember the video, but there's a video somewhere of a gameplay designer that's pretty far down the corporate ladder talking about how they just took what they were given and tried to make it as fun as possible.

You're right, that's why GoW isn't a dead series.

The hardest part for me in god of war 3 was the flying through a tunnel while avoiding obstacles bit. Combat was piss easy.

good they're right no body wants to xxx yyy and get sucked

>hardcore gow fans
Is that even a thing?

>fast-paced, combo-oriented action is now "boring"

It was over before it even began.

Platinum's games never sell well in general and they seem to put out half the genre.

>play GoW
>2 or something, I don't even remember which one
>boring as fuck light attack light attack light attack heavy attack QTE

Good riddance

Almost bet it was a grrl gaymur journalist

>new GoW
>plays absolutely nothing like the previous games
>sonybros hate old GoW now

Fucking disgusting

The god of war games were never good and this new installment looks just as trash but for different reasons.

We don't need souls combat in every game though. Spectacle fighters can be fun too.

WHERE

faggot

>implying that was a bad thing and it wasn't fun as fuck mashing square and seeing legions of enemies flying around your screen
Game itself looks very mediocre, I hate how they ride on Kratos/GoW series fame to sell this shit.

>shitty over the shoulder slow as shit beat em up is an upgrade to anything
Validating yet again that gamergate was necessary evil

somebody post the ps4 exclusive gameplay formula webm

Game journalists said God of War was a great game at the time. Now theyre saying it was boring.

They said Devil May Cry 1-4 were great games. Then they said they were trash when DmC came out. I guarantee you they'll say DMC5 will be great and DmC is garbage.

Game Journalists are just the media wing of game companies. Their job is to sell games, not discuss them.

I'll probably pick it up a few years down the line when it's like twenty bucks. GoW combat wasn't particularly fun in the first place

Oh boy yet another third person over the shoulder corridor walker from Sony!
With based "just punch this guy" combat.

Amazing.

lol fuck off shill

>the numbers don't lie
Lost

my thoughts exactly
old GoW-games were cool in every regard except the combat, which is fucking super boring

new one looks cool

theyre technically right, its just that the fan reaction was negative

Because hitting R1 all the time is much better.

yeah ugh punching and killing people i bad!
Where is muh bing bing wahoo and rainbows?! :3

>want to get GoW 4 because i legit enjoy the GoW serie
>all the fucking news try to put GoW4 into a shining light while bashing on the older games
>news and devs comparing gow4 gameplay to Dark souls/bloodborne
>try to say gameplay is similar but in third person
>gameplay video just show a few enemies on screen with big boring looking enemies

the only thing positive i found so far is the voice actor and motion capture for kratos was done by Christopher Judge,
i really want to think i could enjoy the game without looking at any reviews just like i did with previous games but those fucking news are killing it for me

Why would you hit your R1 button all the time?

The camera is so close in that there's no way you're actually going to use the face buttons for combat because your thumb will need to be on the right stick at all times. This is why the camera in shit like DMC, Bayonetta, et al is so far out because you're left with just two buttons to attack with in such a case. This is undoubtedly why Kratos can't jump anymore.

>The Boss Health Bar is located at the bottom of the screen.
In case you may not know, the Boss Health Bar is located at the bottom of the screen.

So always remember, the Boss Health Bar is located at the bottom of the screen.

Barlog is

FUCKING

obsessed with the new camera angle, to the point he kept arguing with one of the leads to keep it in.

where is the boss' health bar, i can't seem to find it.

>Comparing god of bore combat to Bayonetta combat
Off yourself

so retards are just posting random shit to hate this game now

Reading comprehension isn't your strong point, it seems

This is one of the most retarded posts I've ever read on Sup Forums. Congratulations.

Why do people keep forcing a GoT meme on Kratos?

>make combat that mimics dozens of games
>at least it's not boring now guys
