+Rusty Shackleford They tried to do something unusual and they just ended up with something incredibly awkward to play. A pity it was attached to such a promising story premise.
@@shl6367 I'll never lose hope man. This game really was a powerful adventure. I feel that there should be a resurgence of online gameplay of this game. It would do so well to see quality games played agian.
The combat was okay. I played this game for the story. Totally original and inventive. I'd give my right arm to find out how the story played out through the next 2 games.
+Chris Lucas it was meant to be a grindy dungeon crawler type of game a la Diablo, but with a flashy camera. It just never found it's niche. Also, the fact that it was in development for 10 years didn't help it along.
The Iron Hobo I was killed because they stole code and assets and claimed it as theirs ...epic filed a lawsuit and silicon knights lost and had to destroy every copy of the game..there was supposed to be a trilogy
TREE MASTER BOB Well, Norse mythology is a bit funny about that. Apparently in most stories Baldur’s mother is named Frigg. However, sometimes Freya and Frigg are the same goddess and sometimes they aren’t, the sources are inconsistent is my understanding.
damn man, props for replying to a comment on a years-old video. Yeah you're right on that count. Most of what we know about the Norse pantheon is a collection of poems, not a lot of solid written record.
Well.. even if we consider the myths where Frigg and Freya is't the same, Baldr is her brother. Is not hard to see the "inspiration" of norse mythology on greek, in personality Odin is a less sexual Zeus, Thor a dumbest Ares, Baldr a spoiled Apolo... and Freya is almost the same Artemis so... his sister LOL
Does anyone have a timestamp in this video for the second cutscene featuring the Valkyrie where a soldier desperately tries to save his friend and then a Valkyrie comforts him before taking his dead friend to Valhalla? I've been looking all over TH-cam for that scene, since it was the best part of the whole game for me, and I haven't been having any luck so far. I'm hoping to find it in this video, but it's really long and I can't remember when exactly in this game it happened. Edit: Nevermind, I just found it. It's at 1:30:45
I remember playing this game when i was like 10 and got stuck at some horn part and never played it again lol. My grandpa bought it for me at blockbuster for like 2 dollars or some shit.
Good thing this was released before the Marvel movies. Or else it would been ruined by capitalizing on their success. Then again, this game was a failer, sells and critically wise.
Really wish this game had gotten a second chance
the story is so freaking good
If they really wanted a second chance, they should have made it possible to skip the Valkyrie scenes when you die.

It’s back on xbox. Free to play right now.
Game premise was one of the coolest but that combat was god aweful.
+Rusty Shackleford They tried to do something unusual and they just ended up with something incredibly awkward to play. A pity it was attached to such a promising story premise.
The story could have been a real legendary one. Wonder how much of the story they actually completed.
+Rusty Shackleford Not sure, but it was planned as part one of a trilogy, so they were prepared to tell an epic.
Hehehe 'god' awful X)
They need to remake this game and improve the combat then make a sequel
Yes
Sorrows Ending thx to epic games back then it is not going to happen

First Wolf: "Wolves, take the high ground! Let them come to us!"
Squad: *Runs the down the stairs into the goblins.*
hyperion the good old days when high ground means low ground
The creativity of this game is amazing. I remember buying this when it came and really loving it, it’s the game that got me into RPG’s.
This is such great story! I wouldn't mind completing it even by book or comic form! So sad!
Thor was the best character. Loved the story, even for a 'part one' story that probably will not complete.
i miss this game so much :/
this WAS the coolest game
+Lukasz Badowski Still is, I play it to this day. Sure the controls are shit but the games history and rich storyline keeps me going.
+Lukasz Badowski Pretty good story, awful, repetitive game play.
@@paragonaesir1957 if youre still playing it...then youre a legend
@@spartans7694
Yup still do!
game play was godly awesome, people never really understand the game play. RIP too human. sorry no one give you a chance.
+Psychedelic Colors Nah, it was awfully repetitive bro. I enjoyed completing it, but never touched it again.

this would make a great movie.
Yah
i have this game in australia it was banned...............i got it in fucking australia
After playing God of War 4, its weird seeing Baldur and Freya have a thing for each other in this game.

And to think, this game came out almost a decade ago..

STILL NEEDS A REMASTERED!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ or REMAKE! Where it’s exactly the same just way better graphics ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
The loot system was awesome. The plot/story too. The combat not so much.

The one at 3:26:33 is good too
make too human 2 for x box one and i goona by a one
Best game And once you get your epic set it feels amazing
this game was actually legit, enjoyed it alot myself
This story feels like it expects me know what’s going on without explaining anything about the lore
Fun fact, theres an achievement for dying 100 times.
I remember playing this game when i was like 10 and got stuck at some horn part and never played it again lol. My grandpa bought it for me at blockbuster for like 2 dollars or some shit.
Is the sword you're using an easter egg of Frostmourne?
remake this with God of War 4 combat and graphics and you've got something good
Good concept with SiFi Norse mythology but the gameplay just ruined it.

Great art direction. Terrible everything else.
Good thing this was released before the Marvel movies. Or else it would been ruined by capitalizing on their success. Then again, this game was a failer, sells and critically wise.
I like names of monsters in this game: Razor Sky, Rending Fire, Gut Rip, Skull Crusher, The Cruel Death from dark and so on
