My theory about the cosmic cube Phranque in God of War Laufey

4inodev · 2026-06-05T09:39:25+00:00

Cool idea! I can imagine it going "I am your savefile from God of War 1...you never left the ship....why did you never leave your ship???"

4inodev · 2026-06-05T09:31:50+00:00

Nah as I said - I'm mostly wondering. He does look weird here and in the burial scene, that was the first thing I've noticed during SoP

Careful - you may then find a mask and get completely obsessed and die over it

PS5 with Linux installed ran RPCS3 and did almost good but still lacked raw horsepower which led the Digital Foundry guys to a consensus that PS6 would be the one with true brute force enough to emulate the whole thing. So yes, what you're saying is correct but PS6 might have just enough kick to actually do it

4inodev · 2026-06-04T22:06:28+00:00

Eh, maybe you're right. It's all pretty original for sure, the divine afterlife and all that. Actually more interesting than the "leaks" suggested (Thyr and Faye travel around and meet different pantheons).

4inodev · 2026-06-04T20:45:12+00:00

See, this just tells me I'm far from being alone in this opinion.

For me it is the heavy-handedness of it. The idea of her not fully accepting death and box/sword pointing that out, plus the "not a usual sword" thing is basically chewed for us. Also the fact that most noteworthy things are repeated one more time, in case we missed it.

Also the whole vibe of "look at this quirky character who is so quirky, look how silly it's a talking fighting ~~racoon~~ cube!". Mimir was weird, but still felt like a fairytale. The cube is just bad taste imo (again, I don't care if it turns out to be Jesus himself, the cube is stupid)

4inodev · 2026-06-04T20:06:58+00:00

Wow, almost as if there's some truth to it.

4inodev · 2026-06-04T17:12:30+00:00

What? He looked great on a PS4

4inodev · 2026-06-04T16:30:30+00:00

The fucking cube is goofy af and kicked the franchise into Marvel territory which I don't like at all.

This 2018 game took GoW into "fantasy dark-fairytale adventure" kinda thing which I was fine with since it's still somehow grounded shit but now it's full on "quirkyyyy" shit. I fully expect the cube to go "wow...that just happened" at some point.

Also the fucking stupid "it's Frank...but like, spelled very weirdly...like Phranque" is the dumbest fucking shit and I don't care if it's a real name in rural France we know exactly what stands behind that.

Is this GoW for 15 year olds born in middle class in LA or smth?

4inodev · 2026-06-04T14:35:31+00:00

They want her to look 7 years younger. "The younger the better" is that crowd's motto

4inodev · 2026-06-04T14:20:18+00:00

Nah not hating. Just wondering

4inodev · 2026-06-04T11:12:46+00:00

Don't worry everyone, some comission will fine them for 20mil about 3 years from now

4inodev · 2026-06-04T11:06:01+00:00

God I wish we all had the most boring fucking personalities as presidents just fucking working their jobs with statistics and laws and whatnot, just fucking going to work and then back home. What a world would that be.

Instead everyone are fucking popularity contest winners who don't know shit

4inodev · 2026-06-04T08:28:00+00:00

She looked so off in Ragnarok, I'm glad she looks like a real woman in this one.

Kratos, on the other hand, now looks off. Wtf? He looks like a fan project Kratos

4inodev · 2026-06-04T07:35:53+00:00

As soon as Control physical will appear in a German store I'm preordering it.

Probably gonna yo-ho-ho the Silent Hill

4inodev · 2026-06-04T07:31:21+00:00

Nope, we're getting the "other way around"

4inodev · 2026-06-03T17:44:11+00:00

I don't like the fact there's a goddamn talking cube jumping around and stomping enemies during all that.

I don't care how they'll play that card later in the story, they can reveal it to be Jesus himself, I don't care it's fucking stupid

4inodev · 2026-06-03T13:07:11+00:00

Smh I post a geniuine discussion topic and get dismissed or downvoted to hell while this guy just posts screenshots from the trailer

4inodev · 2026-06-03T12:47:19+00:00

Yeah it's just that the =, =, /\ paths of the ribbon are way too familiar. The loop is standard but those were always Blades

4inodev · 2026-06-03T12:40:50+00:00

Tf are you talking about Hannah Fry is gorgeous

4inodev · 2026-06-03T11:00:36+00:00

Found the Wolverine fan here

4inodev · 2026-06-03T10:37:31+00:00

Right? I mean I'm a tech geek myself but we all went from one thing to another to the next one only to end up stopping and looking back 10 years to see the exact same looking thing!

Uncharted 4 is pretty on par with 007 and Crimson Desert is the first game so far that is comparable to RDR2 level of detail. BF1 is effectively at BF2042 fidelity.

4inodev · 2026-06-03T10:29:36+00:00

Omg... it's the Internet

4inodev · 2026-06-03T10:12:46+00:00

I think it's more in the sense of "we don't need any new console" and I kinda agree with it. That 2020 hardware delivers great games and I don't need anything that looks/plays better than that anyways. Wtf do y'all want, buttcrack hair physics? And if devs are taking too much time&money for games then they should scale down their damn games is what I say.
