Atreus is so fucking awesome in this game. In 2018 I barely could stand him. That's pretty damn disappointing to read. I mean, its not bad at all, and there's reason for it later, if its the areA im thinking. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BloodyHell Posted November 19, 2022 Share Posted November 19, 2022 I can't get over how much I've loved this story (counting both games as the story), and the way a personal journey of the first flows into the grand adventure of the second so well. Atreus was an incredible character. The allies made along the way were incredible. I would have done two things differently with the ending. Spoiler 1. Allow the player to fight Odin as thor after Kratos battle with him, then let odin kill Thor, and go to the final Odin battle underground where they finish him. 2. It feels like we didn't sacrifice enough considering the battle they fought. I think I would have taken out some Valkyrie. Freyr and Thor didn't feel like enough. Also, I was shocked they didn't put the mask on Mimir and shove him into Mimir's Well (the tear Odin was obsessed with is known ln as Mimir's Well in the mythology), possibly sacrificing him inside of it. I didn't expect that thread closed so easily. Also, Sif... Goddamn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bacon Posted November 19, 2022 Share Posted November 19, 2022 Man, I am like hard stuck at level 4. Prolly because I am doing side stuff which doesn't grant the majority of your weapon upgrades. I can upgrade a chest piece or both an arm and a leg, but that wouldn't put me at level 5 either. I only bring it up now cuz I've hit my first purple hp bar enemies and I'm too lazy to fight them until they are downgraded to at least orange.

Is there a difficulty setting or some specific fights in GoW that might be a good analog for the general combat in Elden Ring, or are they too different for a comparison to be useful? As someone who's only seen someone play on the hardest difficulty of GoW I would say by that metric Elden Ring is easier. In Elden Ring the more progress you make the easier the combat becomes. Depending on how you built your character there are tons of possibilities to take on a fight. In GOW there is a set way the battle is, enemies always hit you from off screen and you can take like 3 shots max (on the hardest difficulty) That being said combat isn't a focus of Elden Ring exploration is, there are just fights along the way. I actually just started playing it again yesterday and was reminded how awesome it is, just the scale and denseness of the environments is mindblowing.

Bacon Posted November 19, 2022 Share Posted November 19, 2022 Man, I omega teared up Spoiler Spoiler when I got the spear. Spoiler Kratos was perfect. More kind than I could ever have imagined towards Brok. Still sad that his lady couldn't see him. That is the only thing I want to see happen by the end of the game. I hope Brok's blessing somehow comes into play, but it is fine if it was just for Brok to realize he is still Brok. That scene had to be the first moment in both games that really tug on my heartstrings. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No spoilers beyond how long I played before beating main story: Spoiler 46 hours, but I did almost every side-mission that I could along the way. I also put the console in rest mode a few times between playing so I don’t know if that messes with the time played since the game was essentially left open. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah, just past tense wording. Kratos was great too, I just pointed out Atreus because he has changed so much since the first game. Like, I seriously found him annoying a bit in the first. So much so that I thought they had changed his voice actor when I heard him (they didn't). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best Posted November 19, 2022 Share Posted November 19, 2022 Played 3 hours and finished all my side quests. Still have a ways to go in the story. My one complaint in this game is the damn compass and trying to follow where a quest is. It is really confusing in where to go because the quest on the compass moves all around it is very difficult sometimes knowing where to go.

Bacon Posted November 20, 2022 Share Posted November 20, 2022 Please only answer yes or no to this spoiler. Spoiler Boy is back, and Freya is out for now. I prefer Freya's Bifrost abilities over Atreus' non-bifrost having ways. So my question is, without you going into detail, will Freya return as a companion before post-game? And I don't mean in some 2-bit way like how Brok or Sindri joined. What I really want in Freya for the Berserker fights. Best funny moment in the game so far Spoiler Optional Boss fight that kicked my ass for way to long and I still sucked when I beat it. My only excuse it just that I really wasn't in the mood to fight this when I had just fought one a bit ago in the same zone. Spoiler Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
