A lot of 3rd person games are starting to become very formulaic. Cinematic over the shoulder view, interrupting narration, heavily scripted set pieces and pretentious writing with overly brooding characters. If a game takes itself too seriously, it'll age poorly, assuming it hasn't already fallen flat on release smelling like a bad B-movie. These things might not all apply to God of War, and it might do a lot of things well, but I can understand why a fan would be disappointed that a series that had quite an original theme and gameplay ends up being rebooted with a burnt out formula. |
