I've played the game through on hard and got up to the trials with only two magic bars and 4/5 full health bar, so I'm pretty much screwed. Started the game again earlier on hard but this time I'm going to have to max out kratos. Graphically it's the best game of this generation on consoles. It looks and runs amazingly well. A definite improvement over god of war 3. It's already been mentioned by others but there are quite a few sound glitches throughout the game. I wouldn't say the bosses are as memorable as those in god of war 3 but they are very good. Poseidon and cronos were the pinnacle of the whole series I think, however the hecatoncreas is definitely up there. I've yet to see the final boss but I've heard it's epic. A few problems I have with the game are the enemies which I think are completely unbalanced. Some enemies take farrrr too many hits to kill and they make kratos seem somewhat underpowered compared to previous god of war games. Also, seeing as this is a time just after kratos murders his own family and breaks his oath to ares, I just feel like there's a lack of emotion from him throughout the game. He just seems a bit too plain to me. Overall it's a great game SO FAR. A solid 8.5/10 for me. It just doesn't topple god of war 3. |
There are plenty of white chests in the game. I pretty much maximized everything in the foot of Apollo I think. In the temple of the Oracle, there are 11 upgrades 6 feathers and 5 eyes. You just need to be more curious :D
The enemies you are referring to are the goats with armor?? If so the key is trying to parry them, so that they become vulnerable to graple. The amazon can be hideous at times but you can block most of the attacks too. A thing very helpfull is that the Fire of Ares charges a lot faster the rage, and stunts the enemies too, so consider it as your blades by default untill you get the rage bar full, after that you can begin to use other weapon.
For the challenges I recomend you to have all your equipment upgraded. Because the Orkos Stone is very useful. Your doppleganger kicks a$$! And the Uroboros Stone is very useful too. So it is for your best interest to use them and to have them fully upgraded.
The "lack" of emotions is because the visions, and madness the Furies are causing him, that he SPOILER: has forgotten that he killed his family. He knows they are dead, but not by his hand.
The last Boss fight is the best of the series, I know you will love it XD
