Not very often I agree with you, but on this we are 100%.
After rewatching this footage, not only is it bad but it now pisses me off and here is why. The entire idea of kratos riding around on the back of the creature causing it to kill your other enemies is a joke. Why would the creature not try and get you off of its back instead? I am pretty certain if someone jumped on my back and was hitting me in the head I would do my damndest to knock them off. I certainly hope the game doesn't do this stuff often. |
If you remember from God of War 2, there's an enemy type that could not only call a Cyclops to fight (though that was in just one section of the game), but they would hop onto the cyclops and control it by lodging axes into it's neck.
This isn't radically different from God of War 2, just that you can now hop on the Cyclops and have it flail around before you do your usuall business of tearing out it's eye.
The gameplay looked very simple and was probably just a small arena to show off the new fighting mechanics. I would wait till more gameplay footage gets shown, and gameplay that looks like it could be from singleplayer storyline. I think people shouldn't be too critical of it until then.
