Fair. I don't mind the combat. Its fine enough for me that I want to do optional challenges and stuff I found upgrades helped out a lot and I'm playing on hard. You just have to know when to use combos and when to go for a quick hit or two. And I had the opposite problem with loot: it makes too much of a difference since if you're 3 levels below an enemy they one shot you. Upgrading luck if you have decent perks can make you op as well.
In the end though it's subjective. I liked the approach they took and mainly just wish the camera could zoom the fuck out. This is God of War not resident evil 4. Actually, this game reminds me a lot of resident evil 4 for some reason. It's also maybe more tomb raider than the reboot tomb raider series.
The camera didn't bother me at first, but during some of the tougher battles with swarms of enemies it seriously pissed me off. Especially the Valkyrie that spawns multiple enemies and during the kill 100 enemies challenge. I mean, I should maybe have levelled up and gotten better gear, but I feel like if the camera was pulled out I could reasonably taken them.
The boy hasn't annoyed me yet, I only just finished Tyrs vault though. He has some weird Ai moments when I want to shoot something in the terrain but he won't come to where I am so he can't get the angle right. Those were rare though. I like his character arc so far personally.
God of War is pretty great. Has it's fair share of problems, but mainly in the side content. The main story stuff so far I still excellent!
It was my game of the year last year, and it's only getting better with free content patches tha add bosses, npcs, and hidden areas. Plus it's only $15 on switch!
The only downside is it's a bit slow to start, but it's $15 on switch, and they're constantly updating it for free and adding bosses, quests, and apparently some new areas in the last free update before they do a paid dlc. They've brought done three major free updates that actually add a lot to the game!
I'd love to read it. What are your basicthoughts though?
im the same, switch prices can be a bit ludicrous. And they never come down in price! At least physically.
I spent so much time on Beyond Oasis and Gain Ground when I was younger. I don't think Gain Ground has held up well though. Beyond Oasis still looks gorgeous.
They probably couldn't get castlevania, rocket knight or contra due to konami being jerks. They're kinda stingy with their licensing these days, which is shame given how damn good these games are.
