runs great on my 570 8GB card, Ryzen 2600,,with xbox controller. Very suprised. No settings changed..FLT+update..good game so far..just killed that troll..
What fps are you getting, not 60 locked i guess? I put a 580 in my GFs old PC with a R5 3600 last year and it's 50-60 most of the time. From what i can see from the DF video with exactly the same hardware that's just how it runs atm on AMD.
Wow thats actually a gamechanger for me. I hated the fov on ps4 to an extent that i could not enjoy the game as much as i should have. So ill probably have to try out pc-kratos after all. Thanks for sharing!
disgusting.
that's going directly against the design philosophy of the combat (visibility, enemy awarness and so on).
What's up with all the people complaining about fov all the time. Its a 3rd person game lol.
At this point - I don't evne understand why they don't include that in-game. Ofcourse people will complain about fog

Design philosophy )) There was no design philosophy involved. It was cory balrog's fetish for being cinematic, plus performance saving. Nobody on the dev team wanted to make the "single cut camera", but he insisted. I have to say it adds nothing to the game. Nobody wanted to have the camera that close and restrictive, they all wanted it to be like the Arkham games or ACreed. Again he forced to make it like this. Also the reason kratos cant jump. All of this is the fixation of one man that was in charge of the project so he forced everyone else to go along.
Having played some hours, its another game where its reception just boggles the mind. Just absolutely mind numbing. You go from hallway to halllway, battling 3 or 4 enemies, then doing some simplistic puzzle, and going on the next hallway, another 3-4 enemies, puzzle and this is the only thing ive done for 6 or 7 hours. And on ocassion you battle the same reskined miniboss.
What were journos grading exactly when they gave this 94 in 2018 ? What exactly were they playing and seeing here ?
stick to pc games and indies.
You guys forgot what a good single player game is ?!
It's not perfect but it's good

Its far from good. I swear, at this point it feels like we're all being punked when a sony big game comes out.
I mean, this game is some rudimentary and primitive gameplay the likes of which you rarely see. Im bored out of my fucking mind. You're just doing the same simplistic and short loop over and over.
Thats not the issue. Ok, thats the game. Narrow hallway, 4 enemies, throw axe in shinny bulb, go to next hallway to do the exact same thing. Ok, awesome, thats the game. But how did this shit get 94 ? Game of the generation. Masterpiece.
This dud has the same grade as Civ 4. One of the greatest achievements in gamedesign in the history of the medium. Baldurs Gate 2 has a 95. Thief, a founder of genre, a revolution, has a 92. How does a simplistic piece of shit action game that does nothing great get a 94 and people soil themselves at the mere mention of it ? Where is the 94 content in this game ? Whats the outstanding achievement in the medium this offers ? Where do i find it ?
I don't get the people who say God of War has good gameplay. The gameplay is the basic stuff from the PS2 era. You explore small areas of combat, to collect a few limited items, some of which are blocked behind new powers and that's about it. It's very repetitive and quite repetitive with a progression based on a not so exciting itemization. You can find higher quality gameplay in a Ubisoft game...
Sure, the story is amazing and they did a fantastic work with the world building and lore. But the gameplay is pretty mediocre.

That's the point !
Simple MetroidVania type game. WE dont get a lot of these anymore.
I just want single player experience without bs and bloat.

This game looks like that crap DnD game that came out a while ago. They made a god of war game without any of the positive aspects of a god of war game, no thanks.
I loved the scope of the game. I love single-player games that are not open world, because they are paced a lot better. And this is a finely tuned game in regards to combat / story balance.
I loved the combat, too. I played on hardest difficulty, and it was punishing at times. But once you get in to the rythm of it, it was very satisfying, imho. Mobs were very readable, timings consistent, very good animations, super tight controls. What's not to love?
I never agree with stupid gaming journos, but this is a very, very well done game.

didnt buy/play gow yet but if you see it as repetetive you could claim the same for lets say dark souls, sekiro or hellblade senuas sacrifice.
in hellblade the combat was only filler and no real challenge in gow there is at least challenge i assume.
well anyhow as i said didnt play it yet but the arguments sound weird.
I've only played gow on release on ps4 slim but it was difficult. I lowered the difficulty to easy later on

The challenge is there. But the game is consistent. So no bullshit. You learn your toolset well, you will have a lot of fun. Combat is challenging, but if you think a bit during your encounters, and avoid spamming (important), then this game is hella good on higher difficulties.
• combat is far from special (couple it with a low FOV and it's a disaster in terms of immersion)
• script (dialogues) change from deep to derp when not in combat, with the 'boy' treating you (Kratos) like you are a retard ('where are you going?' 'it's this way!')
• and most retarded of them all: instant gratification is top tier feature
Take 10 steps away from your home and behold: shiny chest with loot!!1 We Must be sUre to keep NorMies motiVated and enTerTained!!!1
The dramatic, realistic, dark and serious tone doesn't match at all with those fucking shiny loot chests littered literally everywhere in levels.

1: Have you ever fought multiple people in real life, you disgusted console player?!
No, you didn't.
2: Do you know how important peripheral vision in these situations is (implies a natural, WIDE as fucking possible field of VIEW)?!
No, you don't know.
So then...
Conclusion: WHY do you insist on me to skip your posts due to their derp nature? We're just 3 (fig.) people posting on these forums. Is it really that hard to maintain at least a decent, good sensed discussion alive and maintain motivation to further visit this place?!
It's too cinematic for my taste. I really don't need "cool" camera angles and 1-2sec mini-cutscenes mid-combat all the time. FOV sucks. Game is too gamey in the worst consoley way with gamey loot chests and gamey puzzles all over the place. It's like the antithesis of everything I like about games. Cool graphics, though, I guess.

Even the graphics are so dated. Flat lightning, low res textures, horendous water rendering. The character models have been utterly outclased by several games since.
For the fov just install flawless widescreen, click god of war from the list and just adjust the fov slider.

Don't agree about the graphics. The game runs like a dream on modest systems and if you're not nitpicking the game looks very good. That's smart programming. Compromises have to be made. You can max out the game at 4k with high end hardware: that's a good design. And having some room to push future hardware isn't an argument. The game will look dated anyway in the future and the six people playing this in 2025 could not care less about pushing their hardware with an old game
Shame the game is boring as fuck. I play it like an action adventure at medium difficulty cause i'm not into souls like games. Perhaps it's better if you are in to that stuff and play it at a higher difficulty.
The game looks just alright and it runs like a dream because the game targets ps4 hardware. The maps are extremely small, completely empty and static, the 3-5 enemies you battle at one time evaporate after they die to lessen the load. The lightning is baked and fixed in the entire game.
There's nothing particularly smart or noteworthy in what they did, its pretty standard stuff. Thats the reason why im not especially impressed by anything really tech wise in here. I can see everything they had to do to get the results.
Over the last few years just by playing what came out, you get your eyes accustomed to various things. These old gen inaccurate baked lightning sticks out the most. The way certain scenes are lit, the way characters are lit, your brain just goes "oh, thats not how things should look in this situation. Oh, why is kratos lit like that when the light source is behind him. Oh, why does it seem like he's floating above ground here, instead of being grounded to the scene by proper light and shadows". And so on
Depends on the person looking i guess, i saw a lot of people being impressed. There's a thread on steam asking if this is the best looking game on PC now. Personally i havent taken a single screenshot of this game, because i never thought anything so far looks out of the ordinary or worthy. I did take 3 shots, actually, where the lightning was so bad i wanted so save them.
Gonna give it a go, despite not enjoying Souls-like games, and outright hating Hellblade because of its retarded fov and simplistic combat.
At least fov can be fixed....
There must have been a door there in the wall, when I came in.
Truly gone fishing.
