Ascension is actually very good better than midnarok but nowhere near 2018 imo

greek gow will always be my favorite

Soyboys disliked :D They should go do gay side quest and stare at the rainbows coming out of the campfire :D

Very informative

NICE MATE🔥🔥

god of war franchise all the way from greek to norse is a chefs kiss

It's crazy to me how the first god of war, released in 2005, has more enemies on screen than the last 2 games of the series all because of a stupid camera choice.

god of war 2018 i fight the camera more than enemies over th shoulder camera IS GARBAGE bring old god of war games please

game stdios should never stick to formulaic approaches when maaking games. every beat has a purpose; when you are vulnerable, it is by design; when you are overwhelmed, it is by design.. It really comes down to pushing boundaries and keeping it fresh (especially when Ascension failed due to being too much of the same). not to modernize, but to engage players at all times, especially during combat, regardless of what genre it fits. The genre is video games.

Two claims were made in this video: can't properly assess combat and the environments aren't as grand 1. I hate using this argument because I think it sucks but this genuinely just sounds like a skill issue my guy. If you can't juggle enemies you can't see momentarily then it sounds like you just need to focus on your spatial awareness. They also have companions saying when there's an enemy behind you. Idk why'd you ignore that 2. The Norse environments aren't as grand as the Greek environments by design. If you have a problem with that, then that's ok, but that's not an issue with the camera

As probably the biggest god of war fan I’ve been yelling this for years. God of war would’ve benefited from a 50% to 70% pull back of the camera and just the simple addition of a JUMP BUTTON. It would’ve expanded gameplay and exploration. Not a single person in the world would’ve hated this.

you made this whole video just to tell us you suck at God of War Ragnarok. that’s ok buddy boy we understand

I think over the shoulder camera angle contributes positively to God of War: 1) This is a single shot story driven experience. Closer camera angle increases immersion 2) It allows for very visceral feel in some moves like charged heavy attack and executions without disorienting camera movement Overall I think the changed perspective is part of the narrative: Kratos has changed. This is not epic quest for vengeance against gods like previous titles, it's a story about a father trying to connect with his son and struggling with his past.

You can't compare an rpg hack and slasher with a 3rd person zombie survival shooter. Both have very different purposes. For example, the god of war camera is 1 shot, while the resident evil one has many cuts Edit:You all missed the point that the new games were supposed to be more story oriented, not action focused. The camera serves a very different purpose

I feel the over the shoulder view helps you connect with the story better

Well I'd say a focused spartan warrior such as Kratos wouldn't need/want the Fov of a prey animal, which might have been part of the reason for the over the shoulder camera when he is visiting foreign lands. He also got more cautious over time due to having a child and such, Also the physique of a god would be lost in a first person view, the over the shoulder Pov makes use of the companions, warning him of dangers from behind while allowing the fans to view the protagonist in his glory.

with pc you can mod FOV

Great video!

Imo God of War 2018 and Ragnarok should be 3rd person like GoW 1-3, not over the shoulder. Gameplay would be much faster and pacing of the game would be different.

Yeah true in the Norse games the beauty of the environment is not as evident as it was in greek games

Underrated channel Really love your videos

The Original trilogy was Soo much more epic than the Norse games, I wish they'd bring back that gameplay style and camera

I love this topic Keep up ❤

Awesome Video!

Great Video! The OG camera is a lost art. I wish more developers would appreciate its strength instead of just calling it "outdated"

Haven't even watched it yet, saving for later. Already know you're spitting FACTS.

Ragnarök

GoW 3, "easily"

Good video thanks for human voice and not some cringe AI that makes any video unwatchable

gow 2018 opening was far better imo

2016 was way better. it had also more impact because everything was new. story was also better and more compact.

Hack and slash vs 3rd person rpg

Great video! However, I'd personally count everything up until the first major boss fight (i.e. Baldur and Thor) as the opening level; imo the troll and the bear are just minibosses. That being said, either way I'd say that Ragnarok has a stronger opening level, although I will say that I prefer the Baldur fight in-of-itself.

Ascension better then 2018? Well maybe for replaying

Not only camera but game itself is goated all of them🗿 got all platinums

This is a baited title. There are layers to this. So the Norse saga are fantastic games. And a welcome change from the original style. I love them. Ascension made a few mistakes. The first mistake being it came out after God of War 3 and Ghost of Sparta. This is a horrible mistake. You can't follow up Zeus and Thanatos with the furies. They should have placed this games development and release realistically before 3, or in place of Chains of Olympus. Honestly I could have done without that one anyway. Another mistake was the lack of magic in comparison to other GoW games. Ascension really should have been an early release in the franchise. I think it wouldn't have gotten such a lukewarm response if it was just released at a better point for it. After 3 and GoS was a very bad choice.

Ascension is underrated

I had a lot more fun with Ascension

Ofc it is... Only "god of war" related thing in these new games is Kratos

which RESIDENT EVIL 3 SAVE ROOM version is this?

i find re4 remake's open entry level better just because of the better graphics (it's basically the same but remake adds new mechanics) ;/

Find the OG RE4 to be the better game, but I love the remake and its an amazing game.

This is so good. You literally deserve so much more attention and likes! ❤

Well Done Mate🔥🔥

I can't believe how dumb you are. Hollow Knight is an Indie game 😂

We had quality and quantity from 1995-2013.

The cutscene take is exactly right. Love that I get to interact with them now lol. Press X to have the player do something that makes no difference.

I prefer old camera bcuz the new one not give me a good advantage to dodge enemy attack from behind

Why did you compare it to just ascension? This is franchise not just 2 game, this video is invalid as heck

6:00 so first of all, you arent really using your downpad, if you used it, you will realize its a quick turn button that GIVES IFRAMES, you will have the chance to react before you even get hit, either dodge or parry. I understand that the close view is very limiting especially for a hack and slash game, but there are tools you have that are meant for those times of need
