pure gaming bliss is sitting back in my 700 dollar race car chair, setting up my 200 dollar shure mic with a 100 dollar baffle, turning on retroarch, setting all the supersai eagle 3x filters to on, stretching the picture to 16:9, setting the internal resolution to 1900x1280, and playing ever retro classic ever made on my pc

The only thing I ever knew about them were the gently caress mini games bc I remember thinking it was weird that the GTA3 hack got that game pulled off of shelves but Gow was always fine.

I dont think they did until the new game was coming out and they needed the narrative that Kratos was a bad man from an embarrassing game series so it would be really profound when he says “i like my son more than i like dismembering people”

i'd be way more interested in this game, even with the laughable moral stuff, if it wasn't pandering to mid 30s gaming dads who can only understand the world in terms of their own experiences, so expect every "serious" game to have kids like they do now

Let me take you for a ride.
It is kinda like they looked at popular trends in modern video games and pop culture, and stuck them in one game and polished it up real good. Skill trees, loot, father figure and child on a journey together, Marvel making Thor popular, Dark Souls combat. I still loved it, cause the combat is alot of fun, you get alot of options in combat styles based off your armor, and there's no QTE's for inane poo poo like struggling to open a chest despite being a god. But valid criticisms for sure. Also its really pretty.

it's extremely lame that they moved the series about murdering gods to norse mythology which is full of insane warrior gods with power over the elements and the only god you fight is baldur, the mummy's boy god

Imagine GeertVision, the ability to drop Geert Wilders into any game.

Geert in God of War: The analysis is clear, we have a great problem with Islam, in the Netherlands too. The solution is not so complicated; what is missing are political guts and a feeling of urgency. Immigration from Islamic countries should be forbidden. We must learn to be intolerant with the intolerant, in the street, in the mosque, in court. We must answer hatred and violence by terrorists with exclusion and intolerance and show who the boss in the Netherlands is.

Geert in Halo: I don't hate Muslims. I hate Islam.
