man, I'm finishing up pat's ragnarok streams and it's wild how much of a disparity there is between when he was talking about it on the podcast and how into it he was throughout the streams. like the podcast talk was, almost literally, "this part annoyed me, I hated this part, it sucked that they never shut the gently caress up, 9/10 incredible game" whereas he legit got super into the game on stream and, barring one stupid shithead spamming ending spoilers in his chat a few hours before some major plot moments, was really invested in the story and characters, and completed almost literally 100% of the game aside from a few collectibles. he straight up almost cried on stream during one moment in the ending.

I'm not sure why he didn't talk more about the stuff he liked on the podcast. Like I get it, YOU'RE ON FIRE KRATOS, IT'LL PASS is stupid and annoying since he says it literally every time, and the backseating is truly bad and it's literally thanks to darksydephil, but considering he clearly enjoyed the poo poo out of the game other than that it'd have been nice to hear more of what he liked on the air. they're not bad at doing that like some people are.

also, him having dinner right before approaching the final postgame superboss and forgetting to switch back to the game so you get fullscreen patface mouthbreathing and smacking his lips and talking about how "yeah I'm ready" and reacting to the fight while the chat goes ABSOLUTELY INSANE and then paige calls him to tell him to PUT THE drat GAME ON SCREEN was really, really funny

edit: also some really good moments:

He actually addressed this exact concern on the podcast, where he feels limited with nice things he can say about the games he play, while at the same time feeling like he could go on and on about poo poo he hates. I think he could talk about all the positives just as well (or at least only slightly less than poo poo he hates), but it's not like I don't understand that mental block of addressing WHY he likes aspects of gameplay or events.

His cohost is also a guy who is very understandably a stickler for spoilers despite consistently being a decade behind in all but two video game genres so it makes sense.

Yeah, if Woolie had played GoW this year they probably would've spent a good half hour to one hour just talking about stuff. Get a nice bit going about child violence. Gush about the last moveset.

Don't worry about it.
Pat and Suzi did take some time to praise GoW's combat and story when she was on the podcast last. They said they liked the combat a lot more than Bayonetta 3, but they also couldn't gush too much about it because they asked Woolie if they could describe the new weapon they both liked and he told them he'd prefer not to be spoiled.

yeah, I remember that part.

and man, pat went fuckin NUTS when he got that weapon. it's a really, really, really cool weapon too, and the meaning behind the weapon itself is just the best, too.

has reggie played any god of war games? or do you think that if he and woolie played them, would they just start at GOW 2018 and then do ragnarok, or would they do a full series playthrough? I wonder which they would prefer, I only played a little bit of the old ones so I'm not super familiar, but I love the new ones.

Ragnarok has a lot of good things in it but the things that are bad or annoying are really egregious and it’s an absolutely miserable game to ever consider replaying.

It’s good but it’s not on the same level as 2018

I can't believe that they won't let you skip cutscenes in GoW 2018 and Ragnarok unless it's new game plus

No idea if Reggie's played the older ones, but I think Woolie said he'd have to play through at least Dad of War 1 with Reggie before jumping into Ragnarok. Did they ever re-release any of the old games after the PS3? That might be a pain to go back to anyway.

They remastered the first two games for the PS3, and the third one for the PS4. Currently you can play 3 with no issue (I think you get it free with PS+ or something), but the first two you can only play through that streaming-only mode, since the PS3 is so hard to emulate.

All of the pre-norse games are on PS3 actually, including remastered PSP titles...and Ascension, the game NOBODY remembers.

i remember ascension just because when I went back before 2018 to play the console gows, i abandoned it quickly since it runs like absolute dogshit which is sad because it took forever to download through the PS3s bad download speeds.

I think 2018 hits harder in its beats and yeah less egregious stuff, but I can't imagine putting it over Ragnarok when it takes ages to get Mimir, you spend a chunk of the game with 1 weapon and there's no 3rd, and the enemy variety is 10000 big trolls as minibosses.

Anthony Burch was pulled in to do writing for Ragnarok and he copped to having to write a bunch of the backseating lines. He said he agreed with the complaints and wished he didn't have to write them.

ragnarok had more enemy variety but that was canceled out by its awful pacing, to say nothing of the abject misery of teen atreus taking center stage or really just saying or doing anything at all

He managed to avoid having his poo poo blow up in the media or something so the companies likely don't care.

Listening to Pat and Woolie wildly misunderstand the wizards OGL thing was too much. Not all roleplaying games derive from Dungeons and Dragons.
