I do not care for God of War either.

Which one?

I couldn't do the remake. I loved the story of the first game but the following two did not have great stories. That being said, I did quite enjoy the gameplay of them, and the new God of War just doesn't seem to capture that very well.

Capture what?

u/beybrakers Aug 20 '26

The gameplay of the original God of wars and the new one are very different. The new gameplay doesn't really capture the same spirit as the old one did.

Ummm, that's....the point? 🙃

u/beybrakers Aug 20 '26

Yes and that's why I couldn't get into it. I found the new gameplay to be jarring and unpleasant.

Do you only play the first three God of War games over and over and over again?

u/beybrakers Aug 20 '26

No, I've played plenty of other games? I just don't find the gameplay from the new God of war Game to be especially engaging nor do I find the story to be especially engaging. I think Yahtzee Croshaw does a fairly decent video explaining what the issues some people have with the new games are. I also can't say I appreciate your response. If you had fun with a new games more power to you they just didn't do it for me.

Why don't they do it for you? Do you only play games like the first three God of War games?

That's such a disingenuous response. Do I only play games like the first god of War trilogy? No, no, I don't. But if I played other games, surely I would be able to accept the total change in game style? In theory, yes. I think it could be said that I'm not a fan of the new genre that God of War is going after; that could be it. As to what games I normally like and play, it seems like you clearly want me to list a few, so here goes. 1. I've generally been a fan of BioWare games, and I've been having fun with the Owlcat games, as well as BG3. 2. I adore mystery and puzzle games, Sherlock Holmes games by Frogwares; I've had some fun with the Poirot games as well. 3. I've had fun with the original pre-Origins Assassin's Creed games, as well as the Batman Arkham games (Arkham Knight notwithstanding). Ummm... I'm trying to think; it's so hard coming up with games I've played and enjoyed when I'm on the spot like this XD. The original GreedFall was super fun; I loved CoD 4: Modern Warfare and had some fun with the Telltale games, with less stellar titles like Guardians of the Galaxy notwithstanding. Disco Elysium has been quite a blast. BioShock is good; oddly enough, I preferred BioShock 2 to Infinite.

Did you like Dragon Age: Veilguard?
