No Im not interested in yet another trash AAA game.
What makes you think it will be trash?
they completely scrubbed every bit of personality & nuance out of the game to make it another soulless story-driven, third-person over the shoulder action adventure game
Nuance.
We are talking about...God of War right?
Plus the genre of game is exclusive from whether it is quality or not. You just sound biased.
i posted this in the other God of War topic but it still stands:
God of war, like many games back in the
good ol days
, had its own identity. fixed camera angle, beat em up gameplay, tons of gore and nudity, hyper masculine, ultra pissed off protagonist, etc. all of it made god of war what god of war is, whether you like it or not.
nowadays most AAA single player games have pretty much rolled into becoming the same thing. over-the-shoulder camera, "emotional" storyline, light RPG elements, etc. they're designed to appeal to the largest audience possible, which in this case are casual gamers who didnt enjoy video games before they became more like movies.
I have never played the new God of War but I can guarantee it will be loaded with moments where Kratos and his son must walk slowly and talk, there will probably be some dumbass busywork element like crafting, etc. It is God of War in the sense that the devs tacked on Kratos to sell the game to Sony fans based on brand recognition, but it will play like every other game in the faceless genre
