>everywhere else on the internet, any criticism of this gets deflected as "huuurr youre just an incel who hates women">im actually just fucking tired of the MCU writing and the boring nuGOW gameplayIts all so tiresome.
>>740298319Welcome to culture war, it's really fucking retarded.
>"huuurr youre just an incel who hates women"
>jump button and real aerial combos>nu-GOW
This game embodies everything I hate about modern Sony exclusives.
>>740298319It is inherently misogynist to have standards
>>740298319Every time the culture warrior gets ass-pained, a 4channer is born
>>740298319There are two kinds of people I respect: 1. People who have a vision of what they want and ACTUALLY FUCKING MAKE IT! 2. People who have a vision of what they want and can at least explain themselves. They can take a piece of media and make others understand their point of view about it. That's it. All other people should just get cancer and die. I'm so tired of the endless incomprehensible screeching and emotional breakdowns. The game you haven't played and experienced yet isn't to your liking? Ok then either ACTUALLY FUCKING EXPLAIN or ACTUALLY MAKE YOUR OWN! If you won't do either, then you're just worthless trash.
>>740298743What if I simply don’t buy it
>>740298572>Sonyyou mean american
>>740298319>Goddess of conflict>Laffy taffy editionUg-lee
>>740298846For that you don't have to make a comment on 4chan.
https://youtu.be/3SKW1JIWL8U?t=116DSP's take on the situation. I think hes going woke now for some reason.
>>740298319You're a falseflagging kike faggot. Stop posting fake outrage threads about a game nobody actually cares about. Gas yourself
>>740298846I guess he's trying to say you need to buy & pay for something in full before you get to have an opinion you must first give them your money, which is stupid and honestly >>740298743sounds like some kind of feminist ally
>>740298853It's western game studios in general, but those under the PlayStation umbrella specifically. Playstation exclusives remind me of this meme, it's all the same shit at this point.
>>740298743Some posts are too based. /v/ will never understand this one.
>>740298915at least he’s actually talking about the gameplay, which is already more than your room-temp IQ could ever accomplish.instead, you're just another braindead maggot spamming "woke" because you lack the mental capacity to form a coherent thought.
>>740298319Let’s not ignore the fact that there was only about two or three minutes of actual gameplay during that 20-minute “gameplay” demonstration, and that was all basically walking-and-talking down a corridor (a Snoy staple) or “PRESS X TO MOVIE” slop (also a Snoy staple).I’m counting on Code Veronica, FFVII Part 3, Gears E-Day, and a possible Halo Campaign Evolved shadow drop to save this weekend.
>>740299064This is the cuhck way though, why would you give wokeness a chance by looking at it's gameplay?
>>740298319that AND that character is a blantant self insert
>>740298950perfect example of somebody who belongs in the "should get cancer and die" category. cannot even fucking read simple English sentences. it's really not that hard, you little rodent: either make what you want or at least explain what you want. you faggots cannot do either. you never actually put your brain cells together to describe your "opinions". instead it's just this endless content-free whining and spamming of buzzwords. just like you just demonstrated "herp derp feminism!"
>>740298319From the preview it doesn't seem to even play like GoW anymore.
>>740299048samefag
>>740299151another brainless parrot. get cancer and die
>>740299221
>>740298743but I can't do either of those things!
>>740298846They have no defense against this.
>>740298319you can be both
>>740298319>huuurr youre just an incel who hates women"uhh for your information, i'm married and have a daughter and I still hate women.
>>740298452/thread
>>740298743> There are two kinds of people I respect:No there’s not, you’re just a bitch that doesn’t like pushback on your agenda
>>740299301>look at me mommy, I posted a funny picture because forming a coherent sentence causes an immediate short-circuit in my smooth, unused brain.thanks for confirming that you're incapable of expressing a single original thought using actual words. stick to your little folders of stolen macro images, it's the closest you'll ever get to having a personality.
>>740298319Shut up incel
I don't hate women, but I'm growing increasingly tired of having to celebrate them at every turn. Women are not princesses, kweens, or goddesses— they're human beings, like you and me.
>>740298319I mean I do hate women but that's not the only reason for my dislike of the game.
>>740299534He's still going
>>740298743It's a good thing no one had a 'vision' for the commercial product made by thousands of people and outsourced workers so by your own logic no one needs to respect them thus they all get to be in the 'should get cancer and die' category, much like yourself.
>>740298319This game sounds like another Forespoken with the God of War label slapped on it as marketing.Suits are right. People slop up anything, as long as it has a label they recognize.
>>740298319Actually laughing at how they avoided the game where kratos kid would kill him since Santa Monica doesn't have the balls (figuratively and literally at this point) to go with it so now they're going back.It's really funny since in GoW3 they undid Kratos death in the same ending cutscene so they can perfectly do it again here but can't seem to kill the 'better' Kratos..
>>740299534>bitching about people using images on an *image*boardyou ever heard the expression "a picture is worth a thousand words", dipshit?
>>740299686even the absolute worst brain-damaged fanfic writers and deviantart fags actually make something. I can respect that.and critics can make something too, but only if they actually explain their point of view. If you can't even articulate a coherent thought without parroting the same five empty buzzwords you saw on TikTok, you are literally less than nothing.
>>740298502>press the same button in the air a few times>aerial combos
>>740298502So it's FFXVI woman edition?
>>740298319It's a part of the marketing
>>740298743I explained it multiple times but my posts get ignored because /v/ is too busy complaining about a woman being the main character, wich is a non issuie compared to all the other shit this game has.
>>740299534
>>740300140So old God of War? The hell are you expecting?
>>740299923>Suits are right. People slop up anything, as long as it has a label they recognize.Not always. The Mandelorian and Grogu is one of the worst performing Star Wars movies ever. Star Trek: Starfleet Academy allegedly only had 40,000 viewers and was canceled as soon as the first season ended. Amazon says Rings of Power is their biggest show, but nobody ever talks about it.
>>740298319Your criticisms are invalid and no one is going to entertain them anymore.
>>740300910Do you feel in charge?
>>740298319daily reminder nobody would care if this was an independent title. they can not create, only defile.
>>740300802>when the IP well runs dry and they realize they haven't created anything to take the places of legacy IPs because they murdered all of them in the womb/crib and also that cocaine is still illegal
>>740301236Indie titles at least try to have main characters with more interesting designs.
>>740298743Nobody cares about the vision. People on the other side of imaginary fence certainly don't. They will only see:>no like our new thing?>that means you're something-ist and somesuch-phobe and basically an economical terrorist
>>740300465No it isn't, there's no Kratos.
>>740300910Why are you here, then?
>>740298319>the villains look like a combination of Egyptian and Indian mythological figuresThis is just a woman killing the gods of rapists, then?
>>740300465>The hell are you expecting?She's going to be a "mage". So I expect more cooldowns.
>>740298319>nuGOW gameplayShe's doing air combos and knocking souls out of enemies and shit, bro. She isn't the lumbering Dad of War with his busted ass knees.Just admit you didn't watch.
Where's the automatic filter for woman threads? 75% of this garbage board would be gone.
sony just made a game for girlsit's weird to use the gow franchise for such a thingbut i predict it won't sell very well
>>740298319I've seen people unironically say it's not MCU writing. How do you even argue with people that deny objective facts?
>>740302556>i predict it won't sell very wellyou guys said that about Ragnarok, too
>>740302646Try to keep up with the current state of things, please. Contrarianism for it's own sake only makes one worthy of a bullet.
>>740302646most of those must have been pre-orders, people expecting a normal gamebut when it was out and revealed as propaganda it didn't sell anymore copies
>>740302634Because you retarded niggas are too fucking stupid to hide your power level and are posting God of War "Laundry" type AI slop shit.
>>740300262I agree that the woman is not an issue. What's bothering you the most?
>>740302463Most of the game trailer is just a walking simulator with feature length films in between. And of course let's not forget the obligatory "squeeze through small gaps in a wall" segments.
Learn to Deal with it faggot
>>740302556It will sell 10 million copies at least. We all know it. If you deny it you're just ignoring reality
>>740302853What the tuck are you even trying to say here, you brown.
>>740302821Everything is propaganda to you faggots these days, you are as bad as they were now as far as insufferably taking everything as being somehow political.
>>740302853sorry troonie, the days of hiding powerlevels are over
>>740302916funny how all the before were also woke trash
>>740300262>/v/ is too busy complaining about a woman being the main character,Why do you have to be so dishonest like that. There are tons of games with female protagonists that /v/ likes. But you know what the difference is? Those females are attractive, and they did not replace the series' male protagonist.
>>740302985>you are as bad as they wereFuck off you pussy ass nigger. You eat cum from other men's assholes. You take a shit and moan from the feeling.
>>740303213Nice projection, faggot.
>>740298743>People who have a vision of what they want and can at least explain themselves. They can take a piece of media and make others understand their point of view about it.That's impossible because you can just dismiss their opinion as "endless incomprehensible screeching and emotional breakdowns"
>>740298846That's antisemitic.
Jedi Master Cal will rape Karen's game!
>>740298319I don't want to play a woman who looks like my scrum master.
>>740303107>There are tons of games with female protagonists that /v/ likes>/v/>playing games
>>7402988461. Don't buy it2. Continue to spread negative sentimentThey hate this
>>740298319>any criticism of this gets deflected as "huuurr youre just an incel who hates women"this is the most baffling fucking part, i'd get it if it was just a few retards but there are drones of dumb fags saying this, with zero proof of course.The internet is full of nothing but bots now
Ive never actually read a "comic book" but Ive seen a chunk of MCU slop because my dad and a friend awhile ago was into them.Are those classic stories really like this with the "quirk chungus" writing? Like we're they doing this back in the 60s when Iron Man first appeared or whatever or is this a new thing?
>>740303442>>740301389now say "I'm sorry for being wrong" :)
>>740300224You can shit on FFXVI's story, encounter design and Odin all day but the basic combat engine was great. The freedom and depth it gave you in coming up with cool combos https://files.catbox.moe/z6inr5.mp4
>>740303442>with zero proof of courseThis isn't true though.
>>740300262>/v/ is too busy complaining about a woman being the main characterYou mean the people you criticize for wanting pretty girls in their games? We both know pretty well the problem is not about a woman as the MC, so, please, let us skip that stupid part, shall we?Agenda. The problem is the political agenda and all the shit that comes with it as well. You may now call me a /pol/ chud, that will show me.
>everything entertainment media does is propaganda to you!umm.. yeah?
>>740303862Needs more visual effects, I can almost still see something
>>740303927>he is the kot
>>740298319Normies are genuine cattle, there is very little actual thought taking place in their brains. It's why they love generic over the shoulder cinematic slop made by talentless gen x/millenials with marvel tier dialogue and quippy gelatinous cube named doug baconfart, where there are no stakes and nothing can be taken truly seriously because they get to remain on autopilot and it feels good
>>740303887you can cherry pick some fag from /v/ all you want but the large majority of complaints are not from this "hating women" boogeyman
>>740303948Yeah, it's way too flashy but the systems to have fun are absolutely there. The game around it doesn't make great use of them but we're talking specifically about the combat engine here which is one of the most solid in modern stylish action games.
>>740298319It's called "reductive reasoning" and it's usually not worth engaging with such dishonest arguments. These are people who can't or won't understand what your actual position is, so they dishonesty reduce it to something like "you just hate women" or "you don't want any women in games." It's lazy, dishonestz and not worth engaging in at this point. If these people don't see the bigger picture of what is going on here by now, after all of these years and countless examples, it's because they either can't or don't want to see it
>>740298319I actually think she looks fun to play as.The writing and presentation is just so irredeemably bad I'm not interested in getting it.
>>740298319Let them be, that's exactly why this game will flop, just like all the other Sony flops.Toxic positivity is corroding Sony.I don't even care about it being a woman or her being ugly.Not having the MAIN CHARACTER on a MAIN GAME is insane and also that over the shoulder camera for an action game is absolutely atrocious design.
>>740304114They are all over xitter too.
>>740303862Yeah but they ruin it with the extremely bad stagger bar (Will bar) on all the medium-large, large enemies and all boss fights (even humanoid boss fights Clive's size)Fighting the juggle-able enemies is very fun though.
>>740298846Then you're a chud
>>740298398I think this is really reductive, sure there is a whole industry of grifters on "both sides" who make money with ragebait but what is often dismissed as culture war shit is tied to the subject matter, "woke" products are often mediocre and derivative due to how "woke" media is created, and because it's a pattern people can recognize they are quick to call mediocre products "woke".I also think people can inherently sense when something is wrong but they don't know how or don't want to take the time to explain why so it's easier to just say something is "woke trash" and everyone else knows exactly what they're talking about.
>>740298452This. They act like the most obnoxious cunts imaginable & then act surprised when people start hating them lmao.
>>740300262Most people are not articulate enough to give words to the real reason they dislike something, but they sense it all the same. We soak in degen shitlib culture and it's as invisible as the air we breathe.
>>740298743>Ok then either ACTUALLY FUCKING EXPLAINBut thats what I've been reading about Laufey, people talking about how garbage the game is, not only 'women le bad'>ACTUALLY MAKE YOUR OWN!>because everyone has the same resources as Sony Santa MonicaSo this was bait or the ramblings of a retard who's having a melty because he's seeing how everyone is rejecting this abomination of a game, kek. Go back to Bluesky.
>>740298853No he means Sony
>Some random Jotunn solos a pantheon of war gods
>>740304594You don't understand. She is stronk womyn
>>740298319>everywhere else on the internet, any criticism of this gets deflected as "huuurr youre just an incel who hates women"This has been the playbook for the past 15ish years, where have you been?
>>740298743>People saying that GoW without Kratos isn't GoW>People saying that Laufey isn't a character that deserves the spotlight when their fucking son was made for that.>Gameplay looks the same shit with a jump buttonAll of these talking points get reduced to "incel hates women", there's no point explaining.
>>740298452
>>740298452>pathetic incel thinks he is a chadlol
>>740304132Yea I can agree with that much
>>740298319>20 minutes of "gameplay>literally 20 minutes of MCU garbage and quick time events Anouce fucking Stellar Blade 2 you cunts indent want this shit
>>740302916>Deal with itBy doing nothing.
>>740304594If they were good at being war gods, they wouldn't be fucking dead and in a place where they're weaker.I did like the theory I saw someone put forward that maybe a lot of the other pantheons saw the Kratos shit go down and just ganged up to off their war gods before they got any ideas, though.
>>740304865SB starts with a 20 minutes of cutscenes bro. And then when they drop you in the city you get a cut scene every 5 steps for another 20 on top of marvel yapping from Adam.
>>740304909>say the pcfagskek
>>740304174Sure, but there's a lot of retards actually shitting on the game for that sole reason, for instance this thread, or X, or Facebook, or Youtube, anywhere you look there's tons of brainwashed men crying specifically about middle aged women.
Faye aside I have problems with how stupid the slavers are. We see Faye crawl through a crevasse but then get grabbed by two guards. She struggles mightily, attacking and wounding both but neither raises a hand to subdue her. As they drag her along they know she's got a magic left hand because her first attempt one of the guards shuts down, then she explodes a purple barrel. After some monologue they throw her in a cage then leave her unattended for some reason and right next to a purple barrel that they know she can blow up.
>>740304965>implying a /v/ poster played any of the /v/ darlings >>740303398
I think it looks decent, the best nuGOW has looked gameplay-wise. Not enough to get me to buy it based on what they've shown so far though.
>>740298319that's exactly why they made the model look the way they did, a deflection from more substantial criticism
>>740303107Name them.
>>740298319Just switch to Chinese games for a while bro. It´s still slop but it´s slop for manly men.
>>740305010Lower your tone, consoletroon
>>740305174And people always take the bait.
>>740298319if resetera and reddit can hate on it so can you
>>740305083They had Begtse there. What reason do they have to worry about some "godling"?Big Red seems a lot more worried about whatever mythological sword it is that she got her hands on than her.
>>740298319>huuurr youre just an incel who hates womenyes and?you want my money? give me something I don't hate
My favorite side character in Ragnarok was Kratos. I sure hope he gets a spinoff some day!
>>740305174You give them too much credit assuming they're playing 4D chess when they already have a track record of intentionally making women uglier for far simpler reasons
I would love for MCU writing and nuGOW gameplay to go away but until then Ill play the game cuz it ain't that bad desu and the story is good too, I'm saying yes I wish for a better world but this world ain't that bad as is, unless you're an incel then you're fucked
>>740305083Story telling logic. Why did Odin not just deal with Kratos in the first game, send Thor and Baldur at once. but also if she were deemed a threat they wouldn't have been able to drag her with barely any fuss. Its really only after she gets a weapon again.
>>740305510Who is buying a PS5 Pro to play God of Wife?
>>740304764kek
>>740298743You want me to explain why I think the game about they psychotic manipulative Mary Sue made by the people who ruined GoW and turned it into a retarded water downs NPC power fantasy is going to be a bad game?
>>740305569Wait I have to buy the PRO? I have a 5 man
>one spin-off after ten games>/v/ loses their minds and cries nonstopAre you that horny for the Big Black Spartan?
>>740298319Half the internet is bots these days. I unironically believe this place is one of the last places where people actually talk because there is no value botting here unless it is like feds on /pol/.Everyone has basically quit the internet except for real life insta/facebok shit.On the topic of this game, it looks like shit. Listening to the devs talk it is clear they hated the positive masculinity of Kratos being a good dad. I also agree with the bald youtuber when he said roughly the following>I hate these fucking games>They can't decide if they want to be a narrative artform or a 60 hour game>No one wants to pay $100 for a 5 hour movie>So these studios are required to fill their games with 55 hours of repetitive bullshit to justify their existenceI have more opinions about this but who gives a shit.
>>740305680no one is losing their mind, no one is crying. you think any of us still play this series..?
>>740305680It's literally not a spin-off, retard.
>GUIZ I JUST HATE MCU WRITING GUIZ I DONT HATE WOMEN CAUSE IM A VIRGINValve make MCU writing in their games>ITS OK WHEN VALVE DOES IT!!!!!!Its funny virgins are ok with valve cause they own their game library
>>740300802The numbers don't matter anymore. It is all just algorithms funnelling reserve bank inflation dollars into major companies to keep them propped up.
>>740305825>Anti-valve schizo out of nowhereLmao wtf
>>740305639>the people who ruined GoWYou mean Barlog? The same guy who wrote GoW 2 and CoO and did the outline of the story of GoW 3? You know, the good ones?
>>740305680This isn't the PS2 or even PS3 era where iterative sequels get shit out every year or two. In current hellscape that is modern gaming, sequels take many years to come out. It was 4 years between GoW 2018 and Ragnarok, and it has been 4 years again since Ragnarok. With Laufey as the only GoW even on the horizon, we'll be into the 2030s before we get another GoW game with Kratos. The "it's just one little detour" argument just doesn't hold up when you're waiting many years between games
>>740305195homura hime
>>740305825>Valve make MCU writing in their gamesNo they don’t, you fags always go this route and try to say “oh well valve didit” but whenever you try to argue it you have to ignore and reduce everything to its most basic level. Half Life didn’t have a bunch of quippy retards who had dialogue that consisted of them constantly commentating on shit as if they were aware they were characters in a story and treated everything with the same kind of ironic and irreverent tone. When the fucking citadel explodes Kleiner doesn’t say “erm well that just happened”. >Its funny virgins areYour immediate and desperate attempt at damage control makes it clear to everyone that you know the game is shit and are incapable of defending it on its own merits. Maybe don’t regurgitate the same DOA game talking points.
>>740305964Writing the story is very, very different from directing a whole game.His job was to write a good story and he was probably shit down on many stupid ideas by superiors.
>>740298452based
>>740305951>claim you hate MCU writing >get proven wrong as HL2 is loved hereBy simple logic this shows one thing, most haters just hate Sony. Its not the writing like you want to pretend its just fanboyism and we know the biggest fanboy base on this board
>>740306129>No they don’tStopped reading thereZombine
>>740305964Noticing how you’re not addressing how they fucked it up and are trying to go for a cheap gotcha about how because the retard worked on the games that weren’t shit he didn’t help in ruining the series with the shitty Norse games.
Why bother with this sort of side story as opposed to Kratos or Atreus games? f its really worthwhile why not give it its own title separate from God of War's branding? Why does Sony need yet another female-led exclusive? Are they going to give her a lesbian relationship at the end of this one (and is it going to be the sword-ribbons Asian woman ?) Why the ever loving fuck did they give her a talking cube as a sidekick too and is it going to be quippy Jack Quaid non-threatening mush level of interaction? Also they're not doing well for the "women are downgraded scanned into Western vidya" with Woll's appearance hereLet us fucking hope they don't make this some sort of >Oh see ACKTUALLY Laufey did all the stuff in the parallel afterlife thing that makes her the REAL Hero, Kratos and Atreus could never have done it themselves in GoW / GoW Ragnarok, she basically made it all possible! Behind every great man is a woman who's story wasn't being told...UNTIL NOW CHUD!
>>740298319its pretty awesome that if you have a critique of the game being triple A moviegame slop where the gameplay is just one quicktime event button every 5 minutes, people derail the criticism and strawman you with some gay bullshit 10+ years ago if your trailer didnt show gameplay everyone clowned on you but now you can get away with your gameplay just being a cinematic and the normies that infected the hobby let them get away with itdegradationofahobby.jpg
>>740306240I accept your concession go piss yourself and say how nu-GoW helped you accept it was your fault your gf cucked you on reddit.
>>740305331>whatever mythological sword it isaccording to an older leak that got the cube and different mythologies right the talking sword is Merlin so I assume the ribbons are him and the sword is Excalibur
>>740298452>haha hating women is cool guys!You know admitting to hating women makes you sound gay right
>>740306321>why does the game in the God of War universe have God of War in the title
Do we really need Kratos? The next God of War could be about Atreus and Angrboða and their blossoming romance
>>740306339No one cares valve cultist, everyone knows valve is woke and have MCU level writing. Your copium won't change that
>>740306470Go back to bed, Cory
>>740306495>He's an Epic shillOy vey saar
>>740306321Sony studios are COMPLETELY taken over by LGBTfags, it's unironically over for them.
>>740298743but they use to make GOW games I likedand then people who were not the original creators hijacked itif it was just called "Nordic God-Queen: Laufrey" no one would even bat an eye at it
>>740305825>LE VIRGIN VIRGIN VIRGIN kek, my 3 year old daughter would choke your limpwristed faggot ass out
>>740306495>No one caresYou do, since you keep replying just to shit your pants over valves. But I see now you’re just one of those gcj troons throwing a tantrum. >everyone knows valve is woke and have MCU level writingIt doesn’t and when I pointed out how you were wrong you just ignored it and started crying louder.
>>740306359How and why is Merlin a cube?
>>740306560You first, David.
>>740306321>Let us fucking hope they don't make this some sort of>>Oh see ACKTUALLY Laufey did all the stuff in the parallel afterlife thing that makes her the REAL Hero, Kratos and Atreus could never have done it themselves in GoW / GoW Ragnarok, she basically made it all possible! Behind every great man is a woman who's story wasn't being told...UNTIL NOW CHUD!That's exactly what this is going to be. It's already confirmed that this game takes place alongside 2018 and Ragnarok. The only way for the story to have any significance is if she is constantly interacting with and helping Kratos along his journey
>>740306321Most likely, it will just serve as setup for what Kratos does next. Honestly this route was kind of needed because for the last two games she was the background mover of the plot but was dead so the actual reasons for her goal or motive are not well understood.
>>740306563Aw the classic cultist behavior to deflect to their devil lol>you dont like my [company] so you must like [other company]!
>>740306403gay bashing? during pride month?check yourself my dude, not a good look
>>740306437So what you're saying is >SEO MARKETING SEO MARKETING BRAND AFFILIATION MOST IMPORTANT MAKE CUSTOMERS INTO FANATICS This game does not star the God of War.

>>740298319Is the game coming to a PC?If not, I don't care.
>>740298319So what you're saying it you hate women?
>>740306623>I pointed out how you were wronglol your delusions dont change anything, valve are clearly woke and you have to be delusional to say otherwise Its cognitive dissonance cause they own your game library and you dont want to acknowledge that

>>740306754>This game does not star the God of WarBrother, Kratos isn't the God of War in the majority of his own games.
>>740306663>>740306715I don't see any problem with her having a role to play in the afterlife (which also sets up potentially interesting shit if it means that all the Greek gods that Kratos killed are stewing in the Elsewhereverse or whatever the fuck its called, or just giving a chance for other pantheons), but its going to be obnoxious if Kratos/Atreus 's victories in the past games are are SUBVERTED EXPECTATIONS into it being Laufey's story and triumph and that they were not capable of doing anything without her doing this shit in the background. Her having a parallel story trying to help her loved ones is fine, so long as it does't negate their strength, success etc.
>>740298846Wtf you can't do that!
>>740298319While I do typically hate women, it's true that my biggest issue with this game is its writing. The M rating used to mean something. Now we've got an M rated game with family movie tier key-jingling via the fucking cube that quips. At least Atreus was an actual person and not just le quirk chungus mascot character to appeal to the kids in what is allegedly intended to be an adult experience.
>>740306914It’s amazing how you keep desperately pulling up random shit that was debunked years ago just to continue your pants shitting tantrum to do damage control for the shitty god of reddit game. And by the looks of it you have been seething about Valve for years. https://arch.b4k.dev/_/search/image/cl38FVF1pq7SybVz2397Sw/Go cry your kike patent trolls lost shitjeet.
>>740307026Now we're just being disingenuous. Kratos, the primary protagonist of the God of War series who has held the title of God of War (and his attainment, loss etc.. of that title and moving beyond it is all part of his story), has been in and is the primary playable character in every game to date. This one he's not going to be there, the primary character is someone else entirely. Its a spinoff or side story
>>740298846AIEEEEEEEEEEEEE, XISTERS, REPORT THIS FINANCIAL TERRORISM!!!!
>>740298319reframe your argument to include how it's fucked up that a pretty fair-haired scandinavian white woman is slaying the monstrous looking gods of dark-skinned cultures and that you want to play as the Egyptian lady instead
>>740307045I would genuinely love to pick the brain of one of these dishonest cucks just to see what basis they have for always throwing these kind of comments out to deflect
Can Sony just stop with the cinematic slop movie games? All they talk about is characters and the writing, they barely talk about gameplay. That "gameplay" reveal was 98% a cutscene. The only reason Laufey is the main character is because the writers wanted to flesh out the story of someone other than Kratos. Just look at the gameplay: instead of doing something unique with her they just lifted everything from ragnarok. Sony really has run out of ideas.
Guys, Im sorry about crashing out in this post: >>740299534My dilation was VERY painful this morning and put me into a bad headspace. You win, cat poster.
>>740307316It'd be a waste of time. Lefties argue like jews, always deflecting, mocking, dodging questions with sophistry and bullshit etc. They never give straight answers.
>>740306158I mean, you're moving the goalposts to the moon, this shit isn't relevant to the thread at all.Also HL2 is nowhere near as egregious as Nu-GoW, you'd have to be out of your fucking mind to even believe that.
>>740307316It’s not nearly as interesting as you think. They’re just pathological liars. They know they’re lying, they know that what they say can be refuted with a quick but of research or even just cursory knowledge of gaming history. The idea behind it is to tell such a blatant and retarded lie that people will second guess themselves since their immediate thought is “there is no way someone would just lie like that, it’s too obvious”
>>740307191Its funny you say nothing of note, like you just say its debunked without any proof. You just hope people take your words at face value. Valve is woke and you made no argument otherwise. Just a buzzword mess of saying reddit and talking about Indians
>>740307208>it can't be God of War because it doesn't star a war god!>Kratos wasn't a war god for a lot of those games>Shut UP!!!Just admit you never played them and only watched "God of War All God Deaths" compilations on Youtube.
>>740298319Im getting tired of people complaining about MCU writing.It’s objectively a good formula and only the most miserable sad sacks hate it
>>740307398KEK
>>740307045That's funny because Dansgaming is gay IRL and prefers to play male characters
>>740307316Maybe you are not saying you don't want to play as a woman but plenty of people do, even that disgusting draugr looking streamer is saying that, the main problem here is that you are siding with the radical people for no reason other than believing there's only two sides.
>>740307473>Also HL2 is nowhere near as egregioussome me a line in GoW like Zombine, its funny you now acknowledge its MCU writing but uhhhhh not THAT bad. A lil MCU writing is good!
>>740307526>Its funny you say nothing of noteI pointed out how you were wrong in another post, and all you could do is ignore it and started sperging out like you have for years. And now that that has been proven you’re just doubling down on ignoring everything while pretending to be smug so you don’t out that I struck a nerve and outed your schizophrenic hateboner over valve beating some kikes in a lawsuit. >Just a buzzword mess of saying reddit and talking about IndiansOh man, I did strike a nerve.
>>740298319You incels still seething, huh?
>>740307653>Zombine is MCU writing>came out 1 year before the movie that started it
I can't wait for all the nigger snoys to have to defend this. At least with TLOU2 they could stop pretending to like it after the PC port came out. Now they're stuck with this shit.
>>740307695No. I am a gooner. I can't fap to this hag.
>>740307532>U JUST WATCHED UTOOBERINOYes okay, zoomer brain damage confirmed. If you really can't wrap your head around how a series that has been predicated a consistent lead character who held the eponymous title not being present any longer is an issue, I don't know what to tell you.
>any criticism of this gets deflected as "huuurr youre just an incel who hates women"wutare we actually pretending like this is correct nigga it's being made fun of even on fucking 9gag out of all places
>>740307730"Marvel writing" is just the modern term for Whedonisms, which did not actually start with the MCU.
>>740307653I didn't acknowledge shit, I just said that the writing isn't stellar, but it also isn't nu-gow levels of retarded.Eat shit.

>>740307816What were you expecting? Just take a look at this thread, there's always one retard making a lot of noise about it and some others(most likely samefagging) calling him "based", and this is the same everywhere.
>>740307939Oh so you're just a poor jeet shill for Sony, got it.
>>740307641>the main problem here is that you are siding with the radical people for no reason other than believing there's only two sides.I find it ironic that you're trying to suggest I'm falling in to the "there's only two sides" camp, when your very first response to me was assuming I was siding with the roach streamer and the people who think the same way. Makes me think you're actually just another one of those dishonest people who is more concerned about finding a way to label anyone who doesn't think the way you do, rather than engaging in a good faith discussion.

>>740307956https://www.youtube.com/shorts/EwE-CrfrrtwRemember when writing was used to express the person themselves, their language,culture and upbringing. The very setting they are from? instead its just default modern dialogues. So no matter the setting, if its a fantasy world, to the real world in a historical setting. Or a foreign nation in the middle of nowhere. The way the characters speak will always default to millenial/modern dialogues.fuck fuck fuck, shit ! AHHHHHHHHHHHH! i hate you!! did you just! haha very funny! GET IN WE ARE GOING! once you notice this shit its hard not to get annoyed.
>>740298319I am too, you want to know how I am avoiding the incel accusation? by talking about the dialogue writing and boring gameplay.

>>740308070No, retard, you replied to a post with a screenshot of someone talking about that kind of responses, calling them cucks. Is there other reason to go against them aside from feeling identified?
>>740299251>>740308270it plays closer to GoW than the other new games, but yeah it's long dropped the DMC-lite gameplay experience.
>>740307316You'd get the same experience if you just grab an empty bowl out of your cupboard and poked around in there.
>>740298319The story was literally written by a terminally online activist feminazi.

It's fucking madness.
>>740308732feels genuinely exquisite to have given up western games long before this all started. my life is nothing but keks and i-told-you-so's
>>740308029>youre sony! Youre Nintendo! Youre epic!Why is this the only thing valve cultists can say

>>740308972to be fair, being one of those things is worthy of ridicule. this is like saying it would be bad to call an obvious tranny a tranny or an obvious jeet a jeet. these things need to be pointed out.
>>740308431Oh is this the part where you're pretending to misunderstand or are you genuinely just low IQ? Either way the comment he makes is a sweeping statement directed at everyone criticising the game (and he would know there are people bothering to make more genuine criticism if he actually bothered to look). But it's uncomfortable to actually adress that, easier to just imply anyone who has an issue with anything hates women. Kinda like what you're doing. Your playbook is so old and used up that everyone can immediately spot what you're doing.
>>740308732Incel

>>740309592Yes
>>740298452social media has been justifying misogynists, just like police cams justified racists.
>>740309830to be fair GoW 2018's writing isn't really a problem, the combat is the only real thing wrong with the game. Ragnarok was a step down writing wise, but it was a smidge better combat wise. This new game seems to be following that trend, where it'll have the worst writing of the 3, but likely the best combat. In a perfect world we would've had this new game's combat in 2018 but for some reason everyone making that game thought they were too good for jumping and air combos
>>740298319How can you be tired of something you don’t even play in the first place?
>>740309723Thats not the full image retard
>>740310029GoW 2018's writing was dull and full of marvel quips.It was always shit.
>>740310072Cause he doesn't want to just admit he simply hates women, he has to pretend to hate the gameplay
>>740310167Can i see your copy of the game, oh wait you never played it
It bothers me how she keeps talking while you move around. I don't need my character to describe what I'm seeing, I'm already seeing it. And anything else you got to say, you fucking say during a cutscene. This pissed me off so much when I played Transistor and Bastion. Just fucking shut up.
>>740310167>marvel quipseasy way to out yourself as someone who gets all their opinions from 4chan posts
>>740310264Not an argument
Why do PlayStation games attract so many seething tourists? You never saw anyone kicking up a stink when they replaced bayonetta with a tranny.

>>740309595>doubles downYeah figures, that's all you cucks can do, because you have no logical basis for anything in your argument. You circle the drain until you tap out because you know you're wrong, you just want to be perceived as virtuous because chances are you're a morally lacking individual IRL. Pathetic desu
>>740310184Shut the fuck up with this woman hate bullshit. The people who made this dog shit are ones wgo hate women.
I'm convinced that everything Santa Monica or Naughty Dog does is specifically designed to cause flame wars fueled by their employees calling everyone an incel for hating their games so people end up talking about their mediocre games more by rehashing the same arguments that followed their previous releases

>>740311850Resembling like reality was never a massive selling point for video games. I never understood people who think there should be ugliness just because it's more 'real looking' while you T-bag demons after performing four somersaults and then cross-kicking a pillar into God's face.People complaining about realism are posers and should be summarily ignored
I think the game looks pretty cool from what we've seen. Not every character that quips or brings levity is 100% disney soi. We'll have to see what the entire game looks like.That said, I played probably like 70% of GOW (2018) and thought it was a bit boring. The story was alright, but it was slow and really lacked enemy variety. The camera direction also got a little old since the movements were so slow.I never played the original trilogy, but may check it out when they release the remaster.
>>740311850>am i the only incel chudstopped reading there. who do you think you're fooling you mutilated faggot?
>>740309970The internet in general has done that. Thank God for it.
>>740311881I want to return to the halycon days of jerking off to women that look like Megan Fox but instead the jews in California hire mystery meat like Zendaya.
>>740304504That's it. The thing people couldn't put their finger on was the anti white anti male bias in the video game industry. It's so difficult to believe so everyone was afraid to say it. They've been systematically replacing all white men with females or niggers and then they call you a chud for noooooticing.

>>740312000She's not "ugly" though. I think she's way more attractive than a character like Yennefer.
>>740312976In fact its almost accurate to reduce it to woke because the only slight meaning that is mixed into this corporate product is the result of the small amount of influence some nepo hire progressive californian director was able to squeeze in when the shareholders werent looking.
