Popular Post Mr. House 3,371 Posted September 14, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted September 14, 2018 I can't believe I'm saying this, I always hated the GoW series but this one is a different beast altogether. It's more Legend of Zelda than a pure action game and the puzzles, level design, traversal mechanics, secrets hidden throughout are so well thought out. The combat is also excellent, great boss fights too, I keep getting RE4 vibes while playing this. The game is phenomenal. If you have a PS4 and you haven't played GoW, you're doing yourself a great disservice. Get on that shit asap. 3 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

jehurey 3,273 Posted September 14, 2018 Share Posted September 14, 2018 It makes a solid argument. We'll see after RDR2. Its easy to point out the flaws in older games, but some of them are quite amazing experiences. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It's not Naughty Dog overrated type of game at all (which is what I was expecting). Honest, I'm not being a fanboy here. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Well the camera system is near identical but it's also the little thing like the hidden ravens that you have to throw your axe at, which reminds me of the hidden blue medallions in RE4.

Forget SW for a second, this beat Bloodborne for me as game of the generation and it's not something I say lightly. Plus I never liked GoW and I always been biased towards Japanese games. I'd be hard pressed to find anything negative to say about it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Pretty sure the level design and combat in BOTW aren't nearly as good as this. I haven't played it though but when I hear about the shrines and the combat, yeah it's a safe assumption. Anyway, apples and oranges. GoW is not open world, it has a huge hub world to explore but still far from being a sandbox. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It's basically Dark Souls/OOT/Metroidvania. It's amazing stuff. It's the best action adventure game I ever played on a Playstation console. But you're just gonna hate instead of playing it. lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Mr. House 3,371 Posted September 14, 2018 Author Share Posted September 14, 2018 So many ignorant worthless fucks on this forum. Goddamn. Nevermind the fact that everyone who played it think it's a masterpiece, we are all wrong and being fanboys I suppose. You guys are right of course, GoW is teh overrated PS excloosif! I'm going back to play Shadow of the Tomb Raider! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I haven't played BOTW so I'll give you the benefit of the doubt, you might be right, I was thinking of the shrines when I said this. Regardless, GoW level design is excellent and has great traversal/mechanics puzzles. It's quite brilliant and one the level of something like a Legend of Zelda game, the hub world alone is pretty awesome. I wasn't expecting this out of this game. I'm so pleasantly surprised by all of this. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
