I bet people wouldn't be so mad if there was another main line God of War sequel in development and this was a spin off that was developed in parallel.
But since that apparently became a lost skill and these AAA studios take at least 6 years to develop a new game (which means that even if Kratos returns in the God of War after that it would have still taken 12 fucking years), of course people are angry.

I'm happy there isn't. Putting all their chips into Laufey will kill them faster.

That makes me think. Since entertainment changed from watching movies and playing games to watching red letter media and watching someone play a bad game for you, do corpos pay money to shit on other corpos?

Why is nuGoW popular anyway? Sure, the game looked phenomenal on release and still looks decent to this day, but it's dull as shit otherwise

It seems like a culture of toxic positivity over at Sony Santa Monica.
They also blow smoke up their own asses.
I thought they would learn their lessons after GoW2018. However in Ragnarok they doubled down on the things no one liked.
And so this game is going to be much the same. They will alienate even more of their fanbase all the while "knowing" that they made the correct choices.
The hardcore sNoys will still try it though so it will still do ok.

It's an action game designed for the lowest common denominator casuals and people who hate video games and would rather they be movies instead. Hence the single shot camera following Kratos' back and the removal of the jump button.

my wife loves all the classic GoW games across the PS2/3/PSP. played them multiple times when they were new.
nu-GoW was a PS+ monthly game at some point so i downloaded it thinking maybe she'd try it. After she ignored it for a year i said i was uninstalling it to make room on the drive unless she played it now.
She picks it up and silently plays it for about 2 hours before crying and telling me to uninstall it because it's fucking terrible and she hates modern video games and she wishes she never knew the game existed let alone tried it out.
like i knew she wouldn't like it but goddamn i expected her to finish the game and say "it wasn't that good" like she does with most of the harvest moon-likes or new fire emblem games

Kathleen Kennedy was out for blood with that show. The first season did basically all the things everyone wanted from a Star Wars show, and it wasn't even by any of her sycophants. So naturally, she had to kill it out of spite.

>>750202904
The real story is that Filoni took over Star Wars and made it all about his shitty OCs, as usual.

>>750201620
why would you ever order a garbage oil-saturated, overpriced pizza from dominos when you could just make your own with your own ingredients that's 10x healthier for you and tastes better and costs less? are you fat AND retarded?

>>750202904
And the movie was actually good for what it was. A full season arc with extra budget, solid AA movie. Sadly it cost like $200 million to make lmaoo

>>750200581
It'll be like Ghost of Yotei: It won't be an outright flop thanks to automatic franchise buyers but it'll see a sharp drop from previous entries.

I predict 5-7 million copies. If this wine aunt tone represents the next decade of GoW, in 2040, GoW will be struggling to break 3M copies even with Kratos.

>>750203121
>Filloni fills every single Star Wars propety with his crappy waifus.
>Somehow this is Kathleen Kennedy's fault
I mean indirectly it is, since she put the fucking idiot in charge. But Filoni just did what Filoni does: shoehorn Asohka, Bo Katan and Sabine into everything he possibly can while furiously masturbating.

>afterlifes afterlife, for realsies now

huh? And ignoring the giant whedon cube in the room all combat animations looked choppy. I bet it's finest magnet slop.

they could have avoided so many problems by just making it a spin-off.
But of course their hubris wouldn't allow it.

>>750203317
Well it's primarily Kennedy's fault for a lot of the incredibly stupid decisions made with Star Wars when Lucasfilm was bought by Disney. The whole "the force is female" shit was also her and also the big reason why this IP that was primarily aimed at young boys and men (a group Disney famously struggled with) and then went and tried to feminize it because she just had all these great ideas and finally had the power to force them into being. The problem was that her ideas were, and still are, fucking stupid.

>>750203453
Rey is certainly her fault. The Mandalorian becoming a vehicle for Filoni's cadre of waifus is Filoni's fault.

>>750200581

>>750203547
It's the fault of an internal struggle between the shows original creator Jon Favreau and Kennedy even making the show the way it was in the first place. Internal politics is also why Filoni got the job and Favreau eventually got sidelined from the project.

2018 was highly magnetic, especially the enemy attacks. Ragnarok was slightly less magnetic when kratos attacked, but once again very magnetic when enemies attacked.

If Filoni was into making waifus, Star Wars would be in an okay place. I actually think that having a parade of likeable 10s would fit perfectly into Star Wars.

The problem is that he's more concerned with virtue signaling to Karen than making female characters that the guys like. Calling Dave Filoni a waifufag is like calling Neil Druckmann a waifufag.

>>750204414
I never bothered reading the panel but you're right. Thanks for ruining it fag.

>>750201698
45 year old balding dads identify with that version of Kratos, and they also really seem to like the Viking aesthetic for some reason so it attracts them like flies to shit. Laufey is probably also designed with them in mind, specifically to give them an excuse to their wives about why they're playing the game. "See honey? It's got a cool 50 year old lady in it, like you!". No one under the age of 30 is buying this game.

>>750204496
He makes waifus to his own tastes and doesn't give a fuck what anybody else likes.

>>750204563
Oh yeah, the big tough guy known as Dave Filoni. Kathleen has more testosterone than he does. He's 100% about virtue signaling and thinks that men just need to get used to nothing being targeted at them because things were targeted at them back when the industry was healthy thanks to men's patronage.

>>750200825
>I bet people wouldn't be so mad if there was another main line God of War sequel in development
Iirc, there literally is.
Pretty sure back in SDCC they said that Laufey is basically set-up for the next mainline Kratos game. And that the Kratos game is whats coming next from the studio.
I even remember some kind of "imagine being so stupid as to think the main character would be dropped from his own franchise" comment, a stick-it-to-the-chuds sort of thing.

>>750202656
>Why is Kratos' wife named Laufey? Isn't that the king of frost giants?
This is actually just according to Norse lore. Loki's father was named Farbauti, and his mother was named Laufey.
Iirc, in irl lore Loki goes by Laufeyson instead of Farbautison because he was a bastard child.
One of the meanings of "Farbauti" is along the lines of "angry guy who hits shit". Which fits Kratos.
The new GoW has its problems, but they actually just pulled from irl lore and spun it into GoW when it comes to Laufey, Kratos, and Atreus.

Alan Wake 2 is one of those games where it flopped because of budget, not because of underperforming in sales (honestly how the fuck is Remedy getting the budget for both AW2 and Resonant to clock on the highest budgets scoreboard).

Who gives a fuck? Tsushima was a new IP by Suckerpunch, it wasnt a hyped game that sold dozens of millions on the first month.

Its also assuredly more costly than tsushima was, so it needs to seel far more than Tsushima did (after all Tsushima was sucessful).

None of these PS5 sequels is outperforming their PS4 originals. Not a single one of them. Not Yotei, not ragnarok, not one. These are for reasons beyond simply libtard faggot writing but concord and Wolverine are very clear indicators that things are bad, for western games that is.

Wukong probably brought in more profit than Spider man 2, yotei and Ragnarok combined. China is taking over soon. Western culture cant produce anything, its all hype tactics. No one will remember Yotei or Ragnarok like they did the original God of Wars, even though they admittedly sold more copies. That just not how it has ever worked. Western culture is rapidly decaying and turning into a gay ghetto. In fact thats the best term to describe what it is turning into. A celebration of faggotry and poverty.

The fact that corporations who would have all lined up to say how great the girlbosses are in 2020 are now marketing themselves by countersignaling the western entertainment industry's feminist agenda is proof of how weak the western entertainment industry has become.

"Pepperoni Passion" is a gay-ass name for a pizza but they're right.

>>750201698
I actually play the games:
It's action, adventure, exploration with RPG Elements and a story at a AAA budget that actually uses it for polish rather than just graphics. It's also about an established cool character, and it doesn't exist to chastise Kratos for being a God of War - in fact the last two games are all about everyone telling Kratos to be the God of War, and when he does it, it saves the day.

Dragon Age and Halo flopped for years. God of War has:
>Ascension
A game from 13 years ago, that was then followed by the most successful game in the series.
>Sons of Sparta
A 2D spin-off game by another studio.

God of War is one of the few long-running IPs that's still successful

>>750200581
God of war still has some legs, and Kratos is somewhat tied in, so there will still be a following,
It's on thin ice though. The internet will shit on it at the first sign of modern girlboss writing

>>750201751
Dominos is from 1960, before the videogame industry existed.

it's not going to flop simply because snoys have no games to play so they will buy it en masse just like 90% of other exclusives

>>750200581
It'll flop, but they'll just put out some fake sales numbers to save face and blackrock will subsidize the cost.

They try too hard to scaffold off of succesful male led games. TLOU, Tsushima, Uncharted, Spiderman (I'll count this one), and now GoW. I'm sure I'm forgetting others,
I still don't understand. We now have over 10 years of evidence of this being a bad play. Why are they still burning money on it?

>>750200581
I do feel like GoW Laufey will be dead on arrival, i don't think it will be catastrophic, but it will kill the normie playerbase in due time.

Crying? Full on crying? I know the "game" is shit but damn, women are overly emotional.

The only way Dominos would die is if cheap delicious indie pizza popped up everywhere and people were able to hoard hot pizzas in some sort of backlog and then Dominos started putting used tampons in their pizzas for no reason and telling customers to fuck off if they didn't like it.

Nah, people like God of War, it's not killing off it's protagonist like TLOU2, it's not been woke despite what 4chan and reddit thinks.

I don't know if this will sell better than GoW Ragnarok, but this game will be much more polished and probably set-up several other spin-offs. I also think this game has a huge chance of winning GOTY unless something else AAA story-heavy releases in 2027.

>>750212550
>Why are they still burning money on it?
Because the industry is filled with people that can only do this. The old guard either quit or got phased out, and there's nobody left to impart any wisdom.

It's on it's sixth mainline entry, seventh if you count GoW Acension. Of course you gotta know some of the basics. But these games are very talky and walky, so casuals learn the basics without.

That's a farcry from GoW Ragnarok or 2018's combat.

Yes, because I play the games and know that the last two games have been setting this game up the whole time. 4chan said GoW2018 wasn't going to sell. 4chan said GoW Ragnarok wasn't going to sell. A female protagonist doesn't kill a game's sales. It's only when they disrespect the main lead that pisses people off. People like God of War more than ever because of how much they respect Kratos, why would these games be so popular now?

You can't say "Go Woke, Go Broke" then turn around and call successful games woke.

>ok thanks for the reply, santa monica studio corporate account

>>750215662
I agree, but people think Deborah, even old Deborah is hot. She doesn't put a layer of make up on in Daredevil or w/e. She's always looked odd to me.

>>750207678
I refuse to watch it simply because it was sold as an adaptation. If they just told me it was a sequel beforehand I wouldn't have minded, i hate the fucking twist of "Its a sequel instead of an adaptation"

And like so many other Sony first party games, it will only reach that after being discounted by 70% a week after release and bundled in with consoles for free.
