yeah but i think they just didn't want you to fight those. likewise squirts don't have that much hp but they give barely any xp so it's never worth the time

shields aren't helpful since they prevent you from using another weapon in that hand

I heard God of War 2018 was getting a sequel this year and I'd never played it before so I figured I'd try it out. This sounds a lot like you picked Give Me God of War difficulty, and if so, lmao

There are many things I did not like about God of War 4, but the gear and crafting system is just this glaring "why?"

At some point I just left GoW 2018 on the story difficulty or whatever. For a while I was only dropping it down when things got too tedious, but at some point it stopped being worth turning it back up. Was honestly a lot more fun when things actually died in a reasonable amount of time.

I love that there are aspects of GoW'18 where you can see the developers backpedaling their own design decisions in real time. There's a fight early on in the game where Atreus keeps getting grabbed and you have to free him. It is, several hours later, the one and only time that has happened in the entire game. It's like the developers immediately realized that despite its aspirations of being the Big Dad Game, actually making you babysit this loving kid is a great way to make players hate him, so ever since then he's been basically invincible. So invincible, in fact, that you can use him to cheese fights. The fight that inspired my previous post is against Revenants, teleporting projectile spammers that you can't even hit normally; kiddo has to shoot them first. Even then, they can slip out of your combos and teleport behind you and be launching a projectile before you turn around. Their projectiles home so aggressively that they will go around and sometimes even straight through walls to get to you. And this particular encounter is what the game considers a "hard optional fight" which of course means that there are two of them and they both have health for days while every single attack they do will instantly kill you from full health on every difficulty except the very easiest, where you can take a whopping two attacks. They can kill you easily... but they can't do poo poo to Sonny Boy, so technically, the easiest and best way to win that fight is to back out of the room, put up your shield, pull up youtube and watch a nice long video while you hammer the button that makes Atreus fire arrows for ten straight minutes (on the easiest difficulty). What engaging game design!  Well, I mean, it did make me love the kid, so I guess it has that going for it.

God of War 2018 is carefully constructed to be all one continuous, unbroken shot. I assume I learned about this from some video game press thing, because when you actually play the game, it constantly blarts countless weapons, armors, runes, enchantments and skill points at you to manage on an entirely separate menu screen, disrupting any sense of continuity you may have had. It must have been a lot of hard work to make a big open world game with cutscenes and setpieces and fancy graphics not have any camera cuts or loading screens. What a shame.

To illustrate, here are Deus Ex Human Revolution's trailers: Teaser (pretty much just an idea or concept trailer, nothing from the actual game, also note the early title) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EBsHm4Ccz5c Reveal (a pure CG short, basically just an early snippet from the longer E3 trailer) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sXVNi1yQT7Y E3 (the fantastic cinematic trailer everyone remembers) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4FRWYRqaGFE Extended Cut (longer version of the E3 trailer, perhaps a bit too long, still great tagline and chilling ending) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hoRwOux7Ofw Launch (includes actual game footage and pull quotes from reviews, tv ads will often be cut from this) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=leVmyy9iXTk How nice of Nintendo to let everyone know via the commercial to super bomb the tube in maridia because that is the single most unintuitive part of the entire game

I also beat Elden Ring and Malenia last night. After playing here and there since release, it took me 140 hours to see credits. It’s really an amazing game and it does so many things right that it’s no surprise it’s going to be a generation-defining game. Maybe one day I’ll play it again, but I don’t have the patience to put off Strangers of Paradise any longer.

I empathize with Yuji Naka if this is true, but an extra six months would have not made Balan Wonderworld good. Too much of what was wrong with it was embedded in its core design philosophy. Even making it so you just had a jump button all the time to give you two buttons to press instead of one would require every level to be redesigned to account for having a jump at all times and several costumes whose only purpose was to give you a jump to be either reworked completely or removed.

lol just going to wait for Call of Duty to be on gamepass. The Activision/Blizzard shareholders approved the acquisition this morning. Not sure how much more work needs to be done, but Microsoft pretty much owns Activision/Blizzard at this point. https://twitter.com/Nibellion/status/1519725165705314304

Microsoft absolutely does not basically own Activision, they have at least a year left of legal bullshit, and that's assuming the antitrust issues just quietly disappear.
