Hyped but sucks I gotta play in on a ps4. I’m in no rush for a ps5. It just sucks going back to last gen after playing on XSX for a year. I feel it’s gonna tarnish my experience a bit. First one looked great at the time though.

Dont do that to yourself. Play this shit on PS5. Theres some heavy hitters coming

 

[DeepEnigma]

No one waiting for a sale, huh

 

[ckaneo]

Honestly I just dont get the hype for new direction of the series. It looks great graphically but feels like Kratos being a "father" is the only depth of the series

[Gavon West]

That looked absolutely ridiculous! Damn! So good!

 

[ajanke]

Holy shit. I cannot wait now

 

[Slothbeing1209]

Btw so that leaked concept art of odin is true right?
Odin voice is awesome.

 

[Yoboman]

I wish the hypebole on both sides would settle down, its like it's some kind of competition.

This was a great trailer, but it does not tell us much about the actual game so comments like these below are a bit much, as is the "alarmingly generic" quote above.

Glad we have you to moderate our opinions

 

[Sosokrates]

You lie.

Im simply stating the obvious that it makes little sense to make such definitive statements on a game based on a cinematic trailer.

 

[LiquidMetal14]

This destroys Pikmin and Fear Effect visually.

This game will be epic. Definitively definite.

Going to request a few days off for this one.

Imagine not having a PlayStation (PS4, PS5) this November

 

[ChiefDada]

No doubt that controller bit was Cory Barlog's idea.

 

[Matsuchezz]

Now I know why GOW Ragnarok is Phil spencer's most awaited game ever and his personal GOAT. He must have had a hands on with the game lately.
If this footage is only the tip of the Iceberg... DAMN!! When the boi shoots the arrow to the moon that scene is fucking amazing, I will buy an Oled for this game.
I will revisit GOW to have everything fresh this coming november.

And we come to realize that a fucking engine does not make a game great, this game does not need UE5, Santa Monica Studio is so fucking talented!!

 

[Matsuchezz]

Imagine not having a PlayStation (PS4, PS5) this November

Sony will ship 10 Million consoles this november around the globe. An insider heard that and I believe him, of course the quantities can change and all that bs.

 

[Facism]

hype trailer, got the sack tight and crack sweaty

 

[G-Bus]

We getting thors hammer aren't we.

This is why I upgraded to OLED. Gotta get a new audio system for November now.

 

[odhiex]

I am going to put preorder on this $70 DLC. Cannot wait

I don't know but these lines kind of hit hard when it comes to Kratos's character.

"What do you even know of Godhood?"
"In your lifetime, has anyone ever worshipped you...?"
"...ever prayed to you?"
"Can you even imagine that kind of love?"

Kratos was always about war and revenge and never thought about what it's like being a God that people loved.

All he did was kill and murder, maybe he'll change and start saving and protecting.

And the most epic line in that trailer in good ole Kratos fashion...

"Death can have me, when it earns me."

 

[cash_longfellow]

Elden Ring just lost GOTY

Waiiiitttt…Elden Ring was GOTY before?….okay

 

[rsouzadk]

SO GOOD!

 

[Jormatar]

Hands down one of the greatest video game trailers ever.

 

[Filldo]

Combat is way better in the new ones. I button mashed my way to a platinum in 3. Cool looking but shallow combat compared to the new one. Far better story than just Kratos mad! Better locations. The thing most lacking in the newer game was samey enemies and it looks like that's been fixed for this latest. Don't get me wrong, I've loved all the God of War games but the last one for me was the best of the bunch.

 

[alabtrosMyster]

It's hate if you aint feeling this. You can't tell me differently.

The goal is to make fat Thor break the ice by walking on it!

 

[Thirty7ven]

This what I’m talking about, hype games none of that dime a dozen shit that is flooding the market.

 

[Castro27]

Goddamn it, I was going to wait for the PC release but after this trailer I'll have to dust off my PS4

 

[GenericUser]

Boring. Might as well be dlc für god of war. Making this cross gen was a huge mistake and missed opportunity to bring gow to the next level. Still small cramped arenas, still slow ass loading time boat rides. Not getting this day1.

 

[MikeM]

Going to request a few days off for this one.

I may be sick that day

 

[killatopak]

The scale of these creatures is amazing. GoW4 had some big bois but this is bigger. Definitely felt more like old GoW big enemies which I like a lot.


What an amazing trailer.

Been trying to avoid trailers since the first one but had to take a peek at it.. and it looks bloody incredible. They've definitely upped the ante in the scale of fights..

Bring on November, 9th!

 

[Handel]

One of the best trailers ever, second only to BOTW Switch presentation trailer off the top of my head. Might have to give in to playing this on PS4, the story is the strong point anyway.

 

[Beechos]

Gow once again doesnt dissappoint. Game looks fire. Now sony remake the 1st gow trilogy and give it the last of us part 1 treatment. That would be something people would actually look foward to.

 

[Loxus]

The sky in that area fighting the Valkyries just looks so epic.

 

[Kagero]

Looked great but ps4 clearly holding this thing back
Game Looks massive though. Can’t wait.

Kratos was always about war and revenge and never thought about what it's like being a God that people loved.

All he did was kill and murder, maybe he'll change and start saving and protecting.

As if Odin, Thor or Baldur ever cared about the norse people. All gods on this franchise only cared about themselves.

The difference is that Kratos doesnt want to be worshiped or loved. He doesnt have the need to have his ego stroked like every other god does.

That's the reason why he wanted to hide Atreus nature. He doesnt want Artreus being an asshole due to his power (like he almost did during the first game)

 

[Valedix]

Yes Neil unlike your company they can actually do a good sequel.

 

[Captain Toad]

They should think about doing one of these games with the Greek gods. Kraits could face Ares and Zeus and Poseidon or something.

Is this a joke post?

 

[Jormatar]

No doubt that controller bit was Cory Barlog's idea.

Reminded me of the times when you begged for that one particular Christmas present the whole year and then your parents hid that from the rest of the presents only to see your reaction when you think this is all you are gonna get.

 

[Represent.]

Please don't bring that shit in here . TLOU2 raised the bar significantly in this medium.

And I guarantee you every single one of Sony's studios (ESPECIALLY Santa Monica, Insomniac) saw that game and said, "this is the new bar".

Cory Barlog said in a tweet that game changed his life quite literally. Neil and TLOU 2 are respected in the industry.

 

[Sosokrates]

that game changed his life quite literally.

It certainly changed the way I look at revenge and violence against others.

I actually agree. The blocking and dodging of the series always held the combat back

I just dont think they improved much in the new one. They need better level design, better puzzles, and bosses worth a damn and this trailer didnt change what I thought.
