Is the original trilogy still worth playing? When does the series become onions infused?
>>
>>719782796
Yes. The series only went full retard on the ps 4 reboot. The series also has two spin offs on PsP called "Ghost of Sparta" and "Chains of Olympus", those are great too. There is also another spin off called Ascencion but this one sucks so dont play it.
>>
>>719782796
Of course it is,play the 2 psp games as well.
It became S(N)OY after it came out on a SNOY console aka the PS4
>>
>>719782796
All games are good until Ascension. However it's likely you will burn out on them before you get to that title. as good as they are it's just too much of the same. (6 games to go through))

They’re all good THOUGH

GoW 1-3 and the psp prequels are all very good imo, I heard ascension was mediocre but I haven't played it myself
>>
>>719784859
Nothing that happens in Ascension is important for the story or Kratos as a character. It's complete filler. Other than that, it's just a worse version of 3. It has some good things in it, and is still a good game with lots of spectacle, but it's probably the weakest in the series

I liked Ascension and I would rate it above 1 in terms of gameplay, but the story is the weakest and it feels kind of fanfictiony. Only play it if you're still thirsty for more after playing all the others.

only with ragnarok really

They're all good IMO, I remember not liking Ascension because the weapons system was gay and I got softlocked one of the repetitive ass bosses you fight like 5 times but it's been years so can't remember much. Definitely play the first 3 and the PSP games though.

Play the remasters. They're actually really good. The only changes are an increase in resolution, frame rate and a slight texture res increase. They're great to get the same feeling as the original PS2 games, but just being visually superior.

The story in Ascencion is pretty pointless.The whole plot of GoW 1 is that Kratos is mad that Ares tricked him into killing family, and the whole plot of Ascencion is that Kratos forgor that he killed his family, and at end he remembers it. There is nothing important to the plot at all.

>Nothing that happens in Ascension is important for the story or Kratos as a character
It details the life of what Kratos is before his servitude to Ares. It highlights what humanity he has even if the culture of Sparta is a fucked up one. That beneath the murder and mind control and loss of memories, that all he can still remember is a fundamental aspects that are his being, his family and city. None of it is exactly new but it's the ultimate reinforcement of what he is and I'm convinced it was made because people got pissed at the GOW3 ending since it seems like everyone forgot what GOW1 was about. That before the Gods consumed him in his ten year journey, it was ultimately about his people and family first.
It was the life he believed in, it's the life he knew. The culture of his city is juxtaposed to his caring nature for his family, and how Sparta eventually envelops his being.
Rage of Sparta is called Rage of Sparta because it's what fundamentally drives him at the end. His Spartan culture driving him for conquest is what undoes him, and even if he destroys Sparta by killing Poseidon it goes to show that the city molded him even if he no longer cares for it until the very end.
I guess it can be seen as a criticism of the player and that's people don't like it.

I agree. But like you said, that's a retread of something we've already been shown. We didn't really need to see more of his humanity, becuase we already knows it's there by GoW 1.
>That before the Gods consumed him in his ten year journey, it was ultimately about his people and family first.
I don't fully buy that. That's a part of it, but when it comes down to it, Kratos made the deal with Ares to save his own skin. Making it into a self-sacrifice for Sparta is more an invention of Valhalla

But I think you're completely right in your assessemnt. It's just that the story doesn't actually bring up anything or changes the context of the other games. And, unlike the PSP games, it doesn't tie up any loose ends

Gods just appear to be a very powerful species. I think he was always a god but the Greek ones were snobby saying he wasn’t a proper god so he couldn't join Olympus. The Norse ones just recognise him as a god.

Off topic but I've been playing Dante's inferno, shits great. What are some other must play hack and slash series that emulate the GOW feel?

>>719782796
Yes. God of War was a good series mostly, just don't bother with Ascension. Obviously the series took the turn for the worst on the reboot. You're fine with the first three.

It's not like i even idolize David Jaffe as some good writer or anything, he was just involved with making fun games and if you view it in a time capsule like that then it's fine. Just don't listen to that clown when he suddenly thought of a unexplained story arc that he'll say online. Just ignore that motherfucker full stop and enjoy them for what they are.

As far as I know you'd be looking at the more well-known ones like Devil May Cry or Bayonetta. It's kind of niche. Or steering into the slower games which emphasise adventure over the action, like Primal or BloodRayne.

1 is great, at least I choose to remember it that way, 2 is good but feels a bit drawn out and the 3d game is also great because Kratos is a better man in it than grandpa kratos is in the shitty GoW games.

I played the first remake and I thought it was ok. Far cry from the older games but felt fun for what it was, although it had shit enemy variety. Haven't played the second one because I just can't seem to get over how they have a black character as a Norse entity. If they had a white god or some shit in an African mythology game if feel the same ick.

>>
>>719793590
Honestly i think that what kills the enemy variety is the camera angle. in the other before you could have all the sorts of different enemies because the camera would allow you to see what they where doing and allow to have multiple enemies surround you. You can not do that with that shitty behind the shoulders camera.

It was good fun if you could accept tolerating the abysmal lag. Everyone mashed in PvP because online was so fucked underneath, but the co-op was great when you were teamed up with people who were familiar with the missions in the level. The DLC armor made all the previous armors worthless, so everyone ended up wearing the same shit. Some of the levels were really nice. I remember being fond of the City of Troy level and the giant Gorgon Stheno.

What makes you say that? In the specific cutscene where Kratos calls out to Ares, I distinctly remember him saying the phrase "defeat my enemies" and the contextual implication seems to be that he's speaking from his position as a general/leader in the Spartan army.

The Barbarian king is just about to smash Kratos' skull when he calls out to Ares. The cinematic doesn't give the impression that he thought of his army first, but rather just of winning. Not that I claim he didn't care about his army or Sparta, mind you

The story take place before any of the other games, yes. The timeline is as follows:

You mentioned a very important part there that I was almost forgetting. Winning, that's what he cares most about. Both in the context of a personal victory I'm sure, and that of his army as well. It's just the description of him trying to 'save his own skin' that makes it sound like he was cowardly/unprincipled, and like he was afraid of losing his life. But more than that, he cared about victory at all costs.

this. I played the reboot a few months ago and it's really bad. it was "ok" as a standalone, but a dogshit GoW

>>719800391
they didnt know how good they had it
>>
>>719800995
>I still find it strange they didn't bring out a remaster collection for the PS5/PC for the 20th anniversary
That's definitely bizarre. The series has always sold well, so you'd think a simple port of the GoW Saga would be a no brainer. Compared to most botched remasters they were perfectly fine from what I remember.
>>
>>719800391
Old /v/ didn't even play it and just repeated the square meme, like that's all the games were
>>
>>719800569
emulators are fine, idk what you're crying about
>>
>>719800979
I seriously doubt that.

And Ascension is the best one, it is legit the first STORY you should start with if you want to play GoW for the CANON story.
>>
>>719800391
What were some of the criticisms old /v/ had towards the games? Just out of curiosity.
>>
>>719790925
He's supposed to be just better than his younger self. In the story, Kratos isn't physically slower or weaker
>>
>>719801283
There is a rumoured god of war reveal at state of play, it could be then
>>
>>719801353
Emulation will always be a subpar experience over actual hardware.
>Muh resolution, muh shaders, muh widescreen patch
None of that matters, only thing that matters is accuracy
>>
>>719789504
I don't care that it was a cliffhanger ending. The end of GoW2 and the opening of GoW3 are fucking amazing.
>>
lot of nostalgia glazing in here. 1 is absolutely terrible. 2 and 3 are ok though.
>>
>>719801506
he's definitely not weaker physically, but he is definitely slower and less agile
>>
>>719801357
>And Ascension is the best one, it is legit the first STORY you should start with if you want to play GoW for the CANON story.
Eh, Ascension is a fun time but it's definitely the one most easily cut from a story perspective
>>
>>719800391
>old /v/ used to hate on the original god of war games
Because they played on easy mode and complained that it wasn't as hard as Ninja Gaiden. Now people have realized the hardest difficulties kick your ass meaning they don't hate on them anymore.
>>
>>719801665
You're insane. Gow 1 is still incredible.
>>
>>719801706
I don't think he's supposed to be slower or less agile in-universe, but he sure as shit seems it
>>
>>719801665
1 was a product of it's time and aged clunky but its still enjoyable
>>
>>719787815
Dad of War doesn't have souls combat. It is hack 'n slash and there are just as many unique combos, mid combo weapon swaps, weapon cnnections, rage, and runes/spells.

honestly sounds like you just never played it like most of the combat detractors.
>>
>>719801743
>Eh, Ascension is a fun time but it's definitely the one most easily cut from a story perspective
How? When the creators themselves made it to be the first canon story in the timeline?
Ascension is the game when Kratos get's the Chaos Blades for the first time FOR REAL.
So explain that to me.
>>
>>719801572
yeah but if you simply want to play god of war 2 fo example, you just play it on an emulator and it's done, most emulators are very accurate (in this case, PCSX2, you'd need to turn on software mode to achieve the most accuracy)
if someone actually cares that much about accuracy they might as well just buy the original console and an expensive CRT because nothing will ever be able to be as accurate as that

>Are they just rulers of closed areas of the world and don't interact with each other minus the odd one like Tyr who can breach whatever separates them
I think that's pretty much what 4 and Ragnarok imply. Norse Gods rule over the Scandinavia area of Earth, Greek Gods over Greece, Egyptians over Egypt, Hindu over India and so on. They'd know of each other but probably have some pact that each pantheon leaves each other alone to their own corners of the world.
>>
>>719800391
Old /v/ would also never let you speak ill of Half Life 2 or pretty much any Valve game. Times change.
>>
>>719802027
Is 1 with the section where you need to babysit kicking a box up a slope while infinitely spawning enemies attack you? Haven't played the game in 10 years but I remember that shit pissing me off so much
>>
>>719800391
old /v/ is retarded but that has not changed at all
>>
>>719802218
There's a part in Pandora's Temple where you have to sacrifice someone trapped in a cage. I think that's what you're thinking of.

>Skip - 2018/Ragnarok

>>719802393
Yeah, that must be it. I remember there was a slave like it was an escort mission so they must have been in a cage

>How? When the creators themselves made it to be the first canon story in the timeline?
That doesn't mean the story being told in it is actually important for the overall storyline. We don't really learn anything new about Kratos or have any revelations that give new context to the other games. If you cut out any of the other games, you get left with questions like "how did Kratos chain up Atlas" or "What did Poseidon mean when demanded vengeance for Atlantis" or "What did Zeus mean when he mentioned "the other one" to Gaia, and so on
>Ascension is the game when Kratos get's the Chaos Blades for the first time FOR REAL.
What do you mean? Ascension is after Kratos has broken faith with Ares, so he would already have had the Blades for years at that point. Or am I misunderstanding you?

I'd agree it's most accessible, but I just really hate emulation personally. I have a CRT but I've also been very impressed playing via the tink 4k.
>>
>>719802027
What an incredibly reductive way to condemn a game
>>
>>719782796
Half way through GoW3 for me, but it's still not as bad as GoW Ascension, and Ascension is still not as bad as Dad of War. They went full reddit with that one, didn't even bother with gow ragnarok.
When I replay GoW franchise I always stop after beating Ghost of Sparta.
>>
>>719802218
apparently that part caused some controversy at the time
>>
>>719803081
I don't remember the remake make being THAT le reddit. I remember some onions scene regarding "it's her body she can do what she wants" or some shit, but I don't remember anything else that annoyed me

when it's 3/4 of your game...
>>
>>719804567
But it isn't, you're just being melodramatic
>>
I remember playing ascension without knowing anything about it since I went spoiler free, and at the end of it felt pretty underwhelming if I'm not remembering wrong. Still, I believe that there is a good game hidden there, but not as good as the main trilogy.
>>
>>719801614
>And then they had to change the entire rest of the game because the ideas were too wild and ambitious
I'm still sad
>>
>>719805714
What were those ideas? I remember the water titan but that was it

4 is good. Great even. It's cinematic and not in a shit way. Ragnarok the dialogue is so much more MCU because some femoid headed it, but it's still competent. Besides the dialogue there IS a couple throwaway lines of "Respecting wahmen," but it's not some great political sin to like the game.
>>
God of War 1 is a humble start but GOW2 and 3 are some of the best action games ever made
>>
>>719802610
>What do you mean? Ascension is after Kratos has broken faith with Ares, so he would already have had the Blades for years at that point
Maybe I made a mistake
>>
>>719787906
Literally every single one is on PS Plus Premium for free. 1, 2, 3, Chains, Ghost of Sparta, Ascension, all of them. Hell, even 2018 and Ragnarok
>>
>>719787906
God of War 1 and 2 both emulate pretty much perfectly, far as I know
>>
>>719807547
Doesn't seem to be. Some moron said he "completed" it, but he just changed the skin color to white, and also wants to charge 29 bucks for the mod
>>
>>719807946
They are trash on anything other than a PS3 or the og PS2.
>>
>>719782796
>Is the original trilogy still worth playing?
They're the ONLY good part in the franchise.

>When does the series become onions infused?
With the 2018 GoW4.

>>719807946

Choose one (1), you scammy shiII.

The streaming doesn’t work. It’s quick a terrible service
