Friendly Fire posted:Every time I return the axe to Kratos' hand, something about the visual of the axe returning and the sound of it returning, I can't help but have a giant grin on my face. Ending a brawl by ripping a draugh in half then calling the axe back with a big meaty THUMP will never get old.

Sometimes I just boomerang my axe a bunch because of how satisfying it is. What kind of skills are you all going for? I have no idea how I want to approach it.

Dapper_Swindler posted:so can you only regain health from dropped health things? any other way to restore health. You get active support abilities that regenerate small amounts. Basically equip the rune or whatever then L1 and O. Also some give you passives that regen on precision throws or grabs for example.

Got a "preowned" copy at Gamestop. People buying the bundle and trading the game in immediately. A few stores in my area had them and the store I got my copy at had 2.

The first time I groaned and the second time I almost laughed. Looking forward to #3. The writing has generally been good but they're kinda overdoing it here.

So can someone who has played the game a bit further tell me who "The Stranger" was at the beginning of the game? Seemed like it might be Loki but I wasn't 100%.

Geez didn't you waste your childhood by reading about old mythologies like I did? Baldur Do they ever get at why Midgard is basically the setting of Dark Souls? I didn't play the previous God of War games but was Greece equally as hosed up? At least prior to Kratos being Kratos. Aurubin fucked around with this message at 02:20 on Apr 21, 2018 |

So.. is good, is a good game. I am happy is not some techno hyper new experience. Is just a well made game, with great graphics and good design, built on top a over the top franchise and we have learn about videogames and gamers in 2018. This god of war is possible because Skyrim existed, The Last of Us existed, the Uncharted titles existed, the Two Brothers existed.. and so on. Is not actually a giant game, but a good game on the shoulders of giants. Theres even things that I don't feel that are necessary, but for some reason are here, like the constant upgrading and looting random parts. I know God of War3 was also a constant stream of upgrades, but here the game feels very diablo-like. A lot of things work with this game. Is not some 10/10 masterpiece, thats pure non-sense. Is some love letter to modern gaming, and is made with expertise. A good game.

This game is loving sick, the combat feels very satisfying. First game I've bought for (nearly) AAA price in a while and it was definitely worth it.

I have not played further so technically speculation but it makes sense it's Baldur - the inability to feel pain or anything else goes in line with his invulnerability to anything except mistletoe Alternatively its Conor McGregor

Lid posted:I have not played further so technically speculation but it makes sense The inability to feel pain thing makes sense but Baldr was supposed to be the purest and kindest of the gods, so him being a big rear end in a top hat would be weird. Though, it does kind of seem like the whole mythology is breaking down somehow so maybe Baldr being an rear end in a top hat is a symptom of that. Also, the more the game characterizes Faye, the more I want a prequel DLC starring her.

All gods are assholes and that's why Kratos buys his tp in bulk.

I think its a twisted take on him he says he cant feel ANYTHING which includes pain but isnt limited to it, i think the point is hes demented by a complete inability to feel anything so ratger than kind hes overwhelmed by being unable to feel at all
