I played it and forced myself to finish it. It's objectively bad.

It's objectively bad since we don't know if you even own the game, but we do know you hate Sony.

Game like DMC or Bayonetta lost it magic 10 years ago. Action game don' t need flashy combo to be good, Ninja Gaiden proved that , now we have Dark Soul and GOW 4.

Says who!!? speak for yourself, I still find combat like Bayonetta and DMC absolute blast.

I don't like 2D pixel platformers. If I wanted to play a Mario game, I'd just play Mario. Why bother with a clone if you can play the original? Most indie games are just recreations of popular games of the past.

Indies don’t equal 2D platformers.
2D platformers = 2D platformers.

Indies are developers who self-publish.
Eg. No Mans Sky was made by Hello Games who is indie.

RDR2 the reason mostly not hit the goty award mostly due it's red dead online its economy issue before the awards...its spike to its negativity of mtx in future if that thing not yet fix...+ its Gameplay makes it more lose interest... While God of War mostly it's silent killer for GOTY due it's pretty silent even it's before launch it has rumors for mtx but it killed easily by it's director even telling there is no dlc for it...it's like a sealed game with no future due it's pretty complete game that's why the rdr2 loses due it's future related content

 

[odhiex]

My personal GOTY pick.

I love RDR 2, even with its flaws. I have finished the main campaign (with a lot of extra missions/activities) for many weeks. It has a lot of features (too many). However, there were many times that I screamed "Man, this is boring" or "I wish I spent my little gaming time by playing other games". I have spent 40-50 hours playing the campaign alone, plus some extra hours in the online beta.

God of War respects my time!!. I've finished the main campaign in a week and it feels like there were no fillers, no wasted moments. As a gamer dad with Job and family, playing a game without distractions is important. I could immerse myself into the story, and the good feeling of accomplishment. The style of the game is the biggest departure from its predecessor. The Characters are amazing and memorable.

RDR 2 is not a bad game at all, but somehow I feel like the story was not as engaging as RDR 1 (one of my top 3 games of last gen). I don't have an emotional connection with the main character, Arthur Morgan.

Spoiler

I feel like, in the end, getting into John Marston was the main point of the RDR 2's Journey. He finishes the Morgan's unfinished job. The main arc of the story is already completed. Now I don't think I want RDR3 after theses conclusions

 

[Mr Branding]

The amount of hot takes in this topic is too much...

Jesus, people. You can like many things at the same time, it's not a contest nor a race. I love both previous gen character action like NG and DMC but also love the new GoW combat system. You can love open-world games like Yakuza but also love RDR2.

I agree with the poster above me 100%, being a father and husband myself.

Spoiler

RDR2's epilogue is better than the main story

 

[YeS-YeS]

Understandable. It really is a great game!

 

[kevin_trinh]

Says who!!? speak for yourself, I still find combat like Bayonetta and DMC absolute blast.

The sale figure and the market say itself. I see many Soul like game but not even one DMC-like or Bayonetta-like game.
The combat of those 2 really deep and eye-catching, but gamer nowaday want more than just normal Hack n Slash game, which deliver perfectly by Soul game and new GOW.

If that’s the logic then every game should be like fortnite or COD because these are games sells the most. You don’t see games like DMC or Bayonetta as much because not many developers can pull it off especially western developers.

The truth is there will be many game that learn from those 2, even Fornite is learning from Pubg and OW. Follow the step of the successful people is an acceptable way to create your own successful.

Back to DMC, or DMC 5 to be more detail ,if it still keeping the same formula i don't see any chance for it to sell more than it's predecessor. If game like DMC really sell well i don't see any reason for Capcom need to wait for 10 year to make the sequel.

P/S: and don't forget new GOW, which break their own formula to achieve their record this year.

I'm sorry but I hope no developers will listen to you. DMC and Bayonetta combat are still hella fun, they don't need to be like dark souls or GOW just for sake of selling more. No thank you. I enjoyed new God of War's combat but there no fucking way I want DMC and Bayonetta combat to be like that. EVER.

you are missing the point, the combat of DMC or Bayo is good, but the problem is the game dont have anything beside combat. They used flashy combat to get attractive, but nowaday only flashy combat just not enough, they need more than that. That's why i said they lost their magic.

The combat is best part about those games. It's sooo fun to go back and play in hardest difficulty and try to master and feel like absolute bad ass.

So I take it you haven't played NieR: Automata?

 

[EtherMagic]

RDR2 is boring and the players already know it right now considering comments in forums and metacritic user scores.

Boring??? Dude i own both (GOW and RDR2) and Prefer RDR2 in almost every department. It's FAR from boring as long as the person playing does not have ADHD and can enjoy the art of story telling, insane game management, and can appreciate History in one form or another, it's just sooo much deeper then GOW! It's the most immersive game i personally ever played, and my personal fav of the past 30 some-odd years (Yes, I'm that old! ), RDR2 blew my mind!!!

I like RDR2, but come on, gameplay is boring as hell. One of the most boring AAA games in years. 80% of game is just chore to play. Gamestop employees said it way before game's release. I was a little bit offended and said it, that they are ungrateful that they got to see game early and just spit on it, but i know now, that they were right, and millions of people know that too. Still, game is really good, but a lot of people is not afraid to talk about things which are deeply flawed.

 

[Whitecrow]

It only won because it have family drama and we are in the age of drama.

End.

 

[JimiNutz]

I was considering this, Spider-Man or RDR2 to play over my Christmas holiday. Think I'll go with this and see if it lives up to expectations.

 

[V4skunk]

I expected GOW to win.
My goty is RDR2. I played in first person, the way the game was intended to play. No control issues like in 3rd person.

 

[Thiagosc777]

Kind of. Did you see who vote for this thing? The mainstream media. A true videogame will never win. Any game with "social issues" or condemnation of "toxic masculinity" (a neutered Kratos) and a soap opera is guaranteed to win. The people behind the vote is style over substance.

TLOU2 is going to win no matter how bad the gameplay or the story is. The only thing that surprised me with TLOU2 was the level of violence, and that can put off some people from the media. But if the game isn't gruesome 100% of the time, to the point of offending the snowflakes, it is a guaranteed win.

 

[Thiagosc777]

I don't think GOW was like a movie and I enjoyed the gameplay ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I actually think one of the biggest strengths of the game is that unlike other studios like Naughty Dog it managed to make a more story heavy experience without sacrificing the gameplay in the process. At least my playthrough was 90% fighting, exploring and solving light puzzles.

The fighting is definitely not as good as DMC or Bayonetta, but then again neither was the old GOW

This video delves deeply into the systems in the game, and show how disappointing they are. It's pretty good and a must watch for anyone interested in game design.

Mechanics-focused games are never going to stop being relevant, regardless of how much the mainstream trends toward graphical fidelity, fancy cinematography and set pieces.

As per usual with these kinds of arguments, you made a blanket statement of 'they lost their magic' (a subjective claim, if ever I saw one) and then proceeded to try to back it up with hard market data and an appeal to majority when challenged with 'speak for yourself'. If that's your opinion then that's your opinion, you don't need market figures or 'most people agree' to justify it unless you're trying to make a case for why everyone else should feel that way.

Have you beat the game? Doesn't sound like it. Once you get into it you don't even notice the controls, it's so immersive you get sucked into it's world, i had absolutely no problem with the controls, when i see this it just sounds like whinning to me. There is a reason RDR2 got 10's across the board.

The VAST majority of comments i see like yours are from people who simply went through the 2-3 hour prologue and simply gave up on the game (Not saying you did this, but many many people have, then they voice their opinion as if they beat the gane when they didn't even get through 5% of the experience). My brother inlaw did this exact thing, went through the prologue and gave-up before ever finding out how badass the game actually gets the further you go. Not sure if it's this generation water, food or what, but ADHD is bitch these days!

 

[Cleared_Hot]

Couldn't put it down nonstop fun and interesting and beautiful. Rdr bored the hell it of me

Dat cinematic gameplay...

 

[Spukc]

Deserved this game was a fun ride from start to end. The hdr looked unreal on my oled.
Gfx and gameplay where great.
Best looking game of this year.

Read dead 2 had a good story good gfx but was boring as hell to play.

Didnt play spiderman 2

Forza horizon 4 is also great but still just forza.

Celeste is my fav indie game

Sounds more like you are ignorant. I am 100h+ in game, and still, after this time the gameplay is boring and controls are beyond bad for AAA game of this kind. I saw many many people in forums whom complaining and never saw any positive reaction towards it.
Just because game has immersive world, does not give a reasons to be shite in many other ways. I am still like the game, but i am no blind towards many shortcomings.

I posted that video on different other forums as a way to dismiss the game but I haven't played it yet. Matthew is right in most of his points and as a huge fan of the character-action genre I agreed but I am also playing it these days and the award is well deserved. Bear in mind this is after I've finished RDR2

Spoiler

still on the second epilogue, not rushing it because I love playing as Marston

and GoW still blew me away.

What really knocked my socks of was the gameplay. I was the first to condemn SSM for pulling the camera closer to Kratos, but it simply works. As one who did MNM on NG and DMD in DMC3, along other accomplishments, this game moves and especially feels great to play.

Wow, you are already making the excuses for TLOU2 not deserving a win even so far off...The game has not released and you have not played it, says alot really...So lets get this straight, boatloads of people love this game, boatloads of people voted for this game and called it the best game this year and this generation so far, but that seems to bother you.......Perhaps you should clone yourself a billion times to change the results here...WhyDontYou?

If you have no knowledge of how actions games work, then you are probably going to think it is ok. But again, anything would be ok for someone who doesn't know what they are seeing.

If you know how action games work, including the previous games of this series, then it is going complete garbage. Basically, the camera is too zoomed in and the enemies aren't designed with that in mind, so they will always be attacking you from a far or behind. The removal of jumping makes an already simple combat system, into an extremely poor one. The movement is bad and full of "movement assists" where Kratos or enemies slide to the nearest enemy automatically, thus removing positioning management completely. The enemies are simplistic and boring. Puzzles are non-existent, etc. The video mentions all of that.

The story is absolute shit. Kratos is a completely different character and he makes illogical decisions for drama reasons. For example:

Spoiler: Story spoilers

He fights the sons of Thor that are trying to kill him and his son and let one of them live. Knowing that he is going to return. Guess what? He returns and tries to kill him again in a cutscene no less. All of that for a little "father and son" drama moment later on the story.

He saves a woman (another "NuKratos" behavior) who asked not to be saved at the end. NuKratos is now a white knight, protected her for no reason, and didn't even get laid. All of that to set her up as an antagonist in the next game.

Again, this was voted by the mainstream media. They aren't gamers. The whole "father and son" thing was enough to get them to vote for it. Something against "toxic masculinity".

This is a transparent ad-hominem attempt to undermine the credibility of the poster criticising your argument which, aside from being straight-up fallacy, conveniently ignores the following:

As one who did MNM on NG and DMD in DMC3, along other accomplishments, this game moves and especially feels great to play.

So if we're playing the expertise game, how does over 400 collective hours between DMC 1 / 3 / 4, Ninja Gaiden Black / 2 / Sigma / S2 / 3RE, Bayo 1 / 2 and GoW 1 sound? Full Dante Must Die clears of DMC3 and 4? Bloody Palace? Dad of War was fine.

Now I'm not saying that the game is above criticism, I had my own problems with its focus on slotted cooldown attacks over core moveset stuff, but you're attempting to elevate your subjective opinion to something objective by posting up an analysis video on a pedestal to make the argument on your behalf. I enjoy MatthewMatosis' content as much as the next guy, but his opinion is no more valid than that of your fellow posters.

And whoof at this "wake up sheeple" nonsense about the mainstream media. Yes, the gaming press is a mess. No, them liking Dad of War doesn't automatically invalidate the notion that the game might actually be good. That's some seriously flawed reasoning.

 

[CloudStrife_ca]

God of War is a very creative, visually stunning reboot for the series and I really did enjoy it, I'm just very surprised RDR2 didn't take it given its basically pushed the consoles of this gen to their limits, redefined the open world genre once again and basically won everything else.

This fanboyish lack of rationality is tiresome. An opinion is just saying if you personally like or dislike something.

This is analysis, i.e., you are breaking different components of a system apart and describing how they work together.

When I say that Kratos slide towards the enemies, it is not "an opinion", it is a verifiable fact. When I say that it makes the combat system bad, because you can't judge distances to enemies, it is not "an opinion", it is a consequence of the forementioned fact.

@ Thiagosc777 : Do you always have to bug the crap out of people when you don't like something!!? I remember you did same thing with AC Odyssey and you just became so fucking obnoxious about it. Is so hard for you to accept for you that people like something that you didn't like? Or did it really burn your ass to see God of War win GOTY?

 

[bilderberg]

MatthewMatosis is a pompous ass. His entire criticism about Dark Souls 2's combat is made void when you decide to not use lock on 100% of the time. Why the hell would anyone turn to him when evaluating an action game?

 

[cormack12]

I feel this year is a bit of a squib. I feel the three front runners are head to head in a 'game that almost fulfills its ambition' competition. I also feel other contenders should be up there based on this merit.

RDR2: Visually stunning, some gameplay hindering controls and very polarising. It's a slow game and while I can appreciate certain elements of that at times it's like playing a visual novel. It's a very schizophrenic and disjointed experience, albeit it gorgeous and you can see what it's trying to do.
GoW: I pretty much liked this game but again not without its shortcomings. I posted them in another thread and too lazy to find.
Spider-Man: Got this last week. Art style is nice but simple. Combat is decent-ish but holy hell does it feel like a mobile game on all those screens and power ups and modifications and mini games.

I can't see a reason why these 'three' are leaps and bounds beyond the below say. I would really anticipate a closer and more diverse GOTY list but already the field is being reduced to those titles above which seems reductive of the year in general. These are probably the other more mainstream titles:

SoTC
Octopath
Celeste
Odyssey
Crash Bandicoot
Detroit
Divinity
Shadow of the Tomb Raider
Mega Man
Dragon Quest
Horizon 4
Hitman 2

et al. and they all do what they set out to well.

 

[lingpanda]

Can't be mad it's GOW but I would've went with RDR2. Both were fantastic in my eyes.

It's a Sony exclusive, of course he hates it. Look at his post, he's already writing off TLOU2. Complain all he wants, Sony has gotten +1 sale from him.

 

[Naked Lunch]

GoW is a fair choice.
Pretty shit year for games though honestly.
My personal pick would probably be Monster Hunter World.

 

[Shifty]

This fanboyish lack of rationality is tiresome.

Have you seen a mirror recently?

I'm not fanboying for God of War here, no strong feelings either way over the fact that it won GOTY. More taking issue with the flawed reasoning being used to slate the game by people who are sore either that their personal favourite didn't win, or that a game they personally dislike is getting attention.

When I say that Kratos slide towards the enemies, it is not "an opinion", it is a verifiable fact. When I say that it makes the combat system bad, because you can't judge distances to enemies, it is not "an opinion", it is a consequence of the forementioned fact.

I'm not disputing whether the evidence provided to back up matthewmatosis' argument is verifiable or objective. I'm disputing your assertion that God of War is objectively bad based on the argument that valid criticism of the game exists. Your opinion doesn't suddenly become hard truth simply because somebody put together a case that supports it.

And BTW, if you want to check out my "gamer cred", then look up PSN Thiagosc or Xbox Live Thiagosc777.

I'm not particularly interested in anyone's gamer cred. Merely attempting to address the argument in the terms you established in your "if you don't know action games then you'll like it otherwise you'll hate it" statement, so that you might read the whole thing rather than dismissing it out of hand as per Fliviuart's post.

 

[Athena~]

I fell asleep in the one dungeon where spikes fell on me, awful game.

Wasn’t pleased with the wrestling match between K and the first boss either, cuz the power levels of them didn’t make any sense. Both of them were able to blow each other miles away for no reason was BS. Unless I missed the scene where K turned super saiyan.
