They have no financial reason to make that game.

Other than releasing it with GTA Online 2 and making everyone re-buy everything they bought in the first one.

I enjoyed it, but it definitely has that DLC made into a new game feeling, kinda like Dead Rising 2: Off The Record or Infamous First Light.

Wish it had more boss fights and that they didnt lean quite so hard on Miles electricity powers. It got ridiculous by the end that almost every single problem encountered could be solved by either absorbing or discharging electricity.

I actually liked how the combat got easier as the game went on. By the end, I felt like Batman, taking down a huge group of enemies with all my gadgets. Helps that the combat feels so good too, especially a perfectly executed standoff.

I was really hoping that the enemies would get smarter with standoffs later on and start doing stuff like trying to set me on fire like in the opening instead of the same old made you blink feints they kept on doing, but it looks cool, so Ill forgive it.

So it's not the sorta game where you'd be interested in an improved port on PS5 or something?

If it was just improvements to the graphics, load times and framerate, no. Those all need fixing, but the technical issues in that game were the least of its issues. The bigger problem is that it's unfinished and the narrative is a mess, to the point that fixing it would be such a huge undertaking that I don't think SWERY can be bothered.

Momonosuke? Gross. That'd just be a cliche, like Nami delivering the final blow to Arlong or something.

Well, it's the X-shaped scar on Kaido made by Oden's swords that makes me think it. Zoro only has one and Momonosuke has the other, so, I think Momonosuke should at least get a hit in. At least do SOMETHING, he deserves it.

My prediction is Luffy fighting Big Mom and winning, but being exhausted/wounded whilst Zoro fights Kaido and loses, but Kaido is also exhausted/wounded and then Luffy and Kaido fight with Luffy/Momonosuke delivering the final blow.

The big question is, does Luffy 'awaken' this arc or are they saving that for the next one?

Yeah, the Korok hunting was a bit of a boring way to finish the game, especially since I missed so many playing through the first time that I had to replay every level.

The narrative is the thing holding the game up! It sure as hell isn't the gameplay that schizophrenically goes from solid to truly horrendous. The set pieces in that game are a mess, but you slog through it for the characters and narrative.

Think he was dead by the end of it. Think the plan was to turn Harry into the Ultimate version of the Green Goblin instead, but they never got that far.

I'd be fine if they were just cameos. I just don't really know what they could do with them that wouldn't just be a rehash of Into the Spider-Verse. And there are way more interesting alternative universe Spider-Men they could use instead. Imagine if they made Takuya Yamashiro and Leopardon canon to the MCU!

It's interesting, because I loved BotW, but after ten hours, I still only think this is just alright.

I disagree that the world is interesting. Colourful, certainly, but the world map just feels like a collection of landmarks dotted around with the gaps inbetween filled randomly with standard collect-a-thons and tasks. And the navigation is too convenient too quickly. I've barely cleared one region and I already have a pegasus which I can summon instantly, a dash boost which lasts for ages and a dozen stamina potions to hand and since you can mark locations from a great distance, I can just fast travel as near as possible, then travel in a straight line towards it. As I said, convenient, but I don't really feeel a sense of exploration. It's more like I'm just working down a list of objectives.

I also disagree that the combat is more dynamic. For a start, you only have one moveset and your combos are either 'Weak x 5' or 'Strong x 5'. I mean, it's fine, but BotW had unique mechanics for certain enemies, like shooting the Hinox in the eye or riding on the Lynels back or stealing the skulls of Stals, etc. Every enemy so far is just 'hit them until they die or their stun bar fills up, then hit them until they die'. And your Sheikah Slate gave you tools to assist in fighting, like using the ice block to get higher or magnesis to grab an enemy's weapon or throw boxes and stuff around. The only comparable thing is that your gauntlets let you throw rocks and trees. Plus the dodge into Flurry Rush felt so good, but getting a perfect dodge in this just affords you enough slowdown to get in maybe an extra hit? At least your weapons don't break, I suppose.

I was super disappointed too, as I did my first vault last night (the equivalent of the Divine Beast dungeons in BotW) and the puzzles and stuff were neat, but the boss was just a more powerful version of a regular enemy that summons mobs. Like, BotW sucked for bosses, but it still had unique ones for its main dungeons at least.

The side quests have been terrible so far. I did one where literally Zeus and Prometheus said a few lines, I shot an arrow at a stationary target, they said another couple of lines and the quest ended with no reward.

As for the voice acting, I like Zeus and Prometheus's banter, but it's not great quality. Hermes too. The writing is mostly fine, but the delivery is off. I'm guessing they had to record most of it in isolation and couldn't bounce off each other's performances, but eh. I'm also struggling to find a motivation to care about saving the gods either, since all the jokes revolve around how awful all of them are. Fenyx is a delight though. Their animations are great and I enjoy the greek mythology superfan aspect of their personality.

I do like the puzzles a lot though, they've been great fun (although a couple could have done with being signposted a bit better) and I like how they've handled new equipment, with you being able to equip whatever you think looks cool and it not affecting your stats. I maintain that the game is good fun, but I'm just not feeling a strong desire to finish this one yet. Maybe that'll change, but I think I'm gonna go back and finish Miles Morales and Yakuza before I put much more time into this one.

It's alright, from the 4 hours I've played so far. I'd probably put it on the same level as Days Gone in terms of open world games, in that it's decent, but you wouldn't be missing a lot if you skipped it either.

Also, it HEAVILY borrows from Breath of the Wild in terms of structure. To the point that the starting area can only be left once you've completed your wings (glider), the story revolves around a great evil sealed away thousands of years ago underneath a mountain in the centre of the map and you have to awaken the four heroes in each corner of the map who were defeated previously (which you can do in any order, of course). Also the whole 'climb everything' mechanic, with a stamina bar that you increases by doing trials dotted around the map, which include combat and physics puzzles, as well as a few other things.

Voice acting and humour is a bit hit or miss, though I am generally enjoying the narrative style of Zeus and Prometheus making up stuff as they go and arguing about what's happening. Also a butt load of microtransactions, as per usual Ubisoft, but they're all cosmetic and the game has daily challenges to earn more. Also, annoyingly, I thought the armour you got for completing the Stadia demo looked kinda cool, so I quickly completed that last night too to unlock it.

Why is fusing weapons so goddamn expensive

The cost is dependent on the sword youre fusing into, so the more powerful and higher level the sword, the more expensive it is. So, the trick is to fuse cheaper swords together first then fuse them into more expensive swords.

For example, say your Master Sword costs 200 rupees per sword, to fuse 24 level 1 swords into it would cost 4800 rupees. However fusing 5 of those swords into a level 1 sword only costs, say, 50 rupees each. So thats 250 rupees. Do that 4 times and youve turned your 24 level 1 swords into 4 level whatever swords for 1000 rupees. Then thats another 800 rupees to fuse those swords into your Master Sword.

Also, dont fuse high resale weapons, just sell them.

And dont bother derusting weapons until end game. The material cost is really high and theyre better spent on quests and cooking. Plus you get upgrades to derusting weapons later on.
