AA was a good start and they can really ramp everything up next time around. |
You're saying the combat is easy, and in the story mode, it kinda is. But I'm doing the challenges now, and they have an evil touch. The battles are more about situational awareness and tactics than anything else, and that makes it rather difficult when lots of things happen at once. Taking out enemies running for gun cabinets isn't all that difficult, but doing so while dodging titans, stun gunners and knifemen gets to be a lot more tricky, especially if you are going for the variety bonus.
But I never really got the hang of the combat system in God of War. Or maybe I did, but the game didn't make me feel as in control as I wanted. I play as the god of war, and I have difficulty taking out tiny little wimps? Something in the controls just didn't work for me. Kratos is awesomely cool, but controlling him isn't. I think I played God of War for about 2 hours, and God of War 2 for about 3 hours, and after that I've felt no urge to return to them.
So really, what I want to know is, why do you like the battle system in God of War so much? What's the pull, apart from the brutalities?
