We're all going to experience changes in our life but only the best of us will qualify for front row seats.

Can we just rename the spymaster role in CK games to "spy enthusiast" for clarity?

I mean, if you're a successful actress and you go out of the house in a skirt and without underwear, knowing that paparazzi are just waiting for opportunities like this and that it has happened many times before, then there's really nobody you can blame for it but yourself.

The outdoor environments look great, but a lot of the interiors are kinda clunky looking and it definitely suffers from a case of NPC Potato People.

I didn't really mean that it looks bad, just that it has an astoundingly similar aesthetic. Then again, I suppose they are both trying to be fantasy Scandinavia, one of them just has fewer elves.

All of the Norse (and Norse-inspired) fantasy games basically look the same to me. If you showed me screenshots of Valhalla, Skyrim and the new God of War, I'm pretty sure the only way I could tell them apart is by the fact that I remember the design of the gruff beardo in God of War.

The funny thing about Valhalla is that it kind of does a plot zag and is actually mostly concerned with invading and uniting various English provinces as your allies, most of what you see outside your warriors and base settlement is actually Saxons and ancient Roman poo poo. Obviously you still see a lot of Viking stuff, but a much bigger portion of the game than I expected is spent with that as the minority contrasting against other stuff.

I honestly I have no idea who cannibal[SIC] is and I do not know why I should know.

syq dude, just syq!

I was pondering for a while how this was possible, but I finally realized a way it could happen.

They're probably suppressing errors when loading Miles' in-game model, and it fails(presumably due to some disk read error of some kind, but it could be anything) to load early on in the process, leaving a null reference that gets skipped for any "set active model" code, so he's being rendered with whatever the last model rendered in the frame was. Since moving around the city changes render order of background objects as they get loaded and unloaded it switches what's being shown.

Not..really a 'glitch' I guess, but..Remember how Halo was clever with checkpoint issues, where if you died really fast after loading a checkpoint a few times it'd roll back to the previous one?

She. And I know Kratos' name, but I wanted to underline that all three of those screenshots would have gruff beardos, it's just that Kratos is the only one I could pick out of a lineup.

to be fair god of war is literally the only one with a defined character. Valhalla lets you play as either a dude or gal viking and skyrim has a handful of fantasy races to choose from.
