Actually, saying that it suck would be an exageration. Not as good as GoW maybe, but suck, I dont think so. There is a damn lot of things and special moves to unlock, way more then any other game of this type. I wasnt looking forward to something special in this title, but im positively surprise. Its not the game of the year but better than your average multiplatform title for sure.

this is what i said in the other thread seens as this is the impressions thread il post it

"lol its good i laughed at 2 or 3 parts like just before u see death some guy just runs up and stabs u in the back LOL , opening chests is annoying, graphics are average at best, pacing was of imo, controls are good grabbing with R2 felt weird, not a big fan of the main character, the story is interesting i thought... i did miss kratos and hes badass ways"

how do you open chests? by mashing buttons like GoW ?

Yep. And it's annoying in both games IMO. I think I'll get this when it's cheap.....

oh and i forgot SPOILERS to does who haven't finished the demo

controlling the big thing at the end was awful very clunky and frustrating imo



I liked it, unlike most people, I love the fact that it is a GoW clone. One thing that I really liked about it is that there are two sets of moves you can learn, unholy (which you use your scythe) and holy (which I assume you use cross/items). Besides that, what can you say, its a GoW clone, even down to the camera angle/style.



Here's what I said in another thread:

I have played the Dante’s Inferno Demo in its entirety and I have 2 words to describe it...

Impressive and disappointing.

Now you may ask, how the fuck did I oxymoron that description? Simple, the story was impressively engaging but the gameplay fell well, WELL below what I thought I was going to experience.

TBH, I hate the comparison this is getting to God of War. I think it's unfair when one compares the defining series of a particular genre to a game that comes after it. But after the demo, it’s inevitable; this is GOW paint-by-the-numbers. I don't see anything in DE that does anything even remotely as good as I’ve played in the God of War 3 E3 demo.

But the story is INTRESTING. This is important for this games success.



I really enjoyed it, was basically a button masher but I have a feeling the farther along you get the harder enemies will require the combos you unlock/purchase. It is a blatant rip-off of God of War III, but there are worse games you could rip-off. This will be a first day buy for me, its great I enjoyed it since I wasnt impressed at all with Bayonetta and it was going to be one or the other for me.



I'm downloading it atm but too busy watching Lost season 5.  Will try to play it tonight.
