Oh yeah, forgot about that snake...

I usually don't care for trailers for video games, I focused mostly on the gifs as far as this thread is concerned.

Combat style & gameplay are complete different other than previous GoW, I don't know when will i change my mind, i'll see if i have a chance.

My point is that with older GOW games,i could take all those enemies together with the chains for example.... Now i have to take them down one by one...... Thats why i im concerned about the repetitive part.

Seems like God of War as a franchise was always doomed.

There were already complaints about the repetitive nature of the franchise, and sales definitely dropped off with Ascension. Would a typical God of War hack and slash game do well in 2018? I highly doubt it.

God of War was in need of a change up. It seems like the change up is generally good and will probably cater to a wider audience than before. The risk with change is always going to be losing your existing audience. I hope it can manage to appease both. The footage looks good from my perspective.

You only saw a small portion of the game and almost no "skills and weapons" from kratos. That said, to conclude that there are no "area attacks" and you need to deal whit enemies one by one is hasty. Let's wait and see, i'm sure we are going to see lots of "Area attacks" that can take many enemies at the same time.

Yes, and then you'd move on to another bunch of enemies and then more bunches of enemies. ... The only difference is we have single enemies and then other single enemies. And we have no idea whether or not we'll be getting weapons that allow us to take out more enemies at once. We've only seen the intro and the tutorial section so far. 

Never played one, wanted to but too short for me.

Video's down.

Here it is split into 4 MP3s:

God of war 3 was ~10 hours for the main story.

This new God of War its ~35 hours.

Is that too short? If not might be time to give it a shot, game looks pretty epic.
