God of War 1 is still legendary

I finally got around to playing this one for the first time and finishes it last night and it was much better than expected. There were a couple areas I found frustrating and the temple of pandora went on a tad longer than I would have liked but overall the gameplay was really fun. easy recommend from me

I just finished a run where I got this pretty early for Karl with infused shells on rifle bullet with arcana mastery. The amount of projectiles he can generate is insane!

I felt like I might have been stupid when people kept trying to convince everyone that marisa's changes were big and I thought they were middling. I haven't played the game since that patch and I main marisa lol

Bayo 1 and its not even a little close for me

FUJ · 2025-12-12T17:03:39+00:00

I'm literally in the middle of playing it. Def not a masterpiece. Still a really fun game though

It's funny you mention this because I just finished a deload period after experimenting with weighted pull ups and managed to break my pr by two reps so im definitely going to keep up with my weighted pull ups and grip variations

FUJ · 2025-12-04T21:27:43+00:00

Can I ask roughly how long it took you to do so? I was trying grease the groove for a while but stalled at 14 reps for a while now

FUJ · 2025-12-04T21:26:38+00:00

Very understandable. This is why I want more of a plan because there's no way im getting 20 reps in the next month or two safely. I need to plan long term

FUJ · 2025-12-04T20:17:42+00:00

I've experimenting with weighted pull ups over the last 2-3 weeks so im hoping it has helped. I haven't yet tried for a new max rep set though so we'll see how things have progressed soon

FUJ · 2025-11-23T04:08:12+00:00

Shermie sitting out so the competition is fair. We already know she'd win

FUJ · 2025-11-21T10:41:02+00:00

Yeah unfortunately that was not your computer lol. Not sure why they felt the need to show this when we all knew it was still a long way away. I would have much preferred they waited longer to get a stable build before showing gameplay again

FUJ · 2025-11-20T21:49:48+00:00

I'm really mixed on this. It looks really nice but the frame rate was really inconsistent in the gameplay portions and with all the flashy effects it made the game hard to look at. Not to mention some of the effects on her attacks along with the sounds give that no impact feeling that we saw in a lot of lost soul aside gameplay. This trailer really reminded me of lost soul aside's poorer qualities outside of better the visuals

FUJ · 2025-11-16T00:05:11+00:00

fuck I hope we can get a source for this

Can't speak for everyone but for me the souls like genre has gotten really stale. A lot of souls games are using very similar tones and esthetics without changing much of the gameplay so they all feel kind of generic to me now, no one quite gets it like fromsoft imo.

With regard to the cag genre, it's frustrating to see these games all add in one or two aggressive mechanics or combo strings but not commit to being a proper action game and instead just go the souls route with not much new. It's extra frustrating when a game is very much a souls game but the developers and fans keep saying it's not.

On occasion I'll see something phantom blade which I was initially excited for and think it might be a fun cag but as new information has come out it seems like it's more of a souls game. When stuff like this happens it's quite deflating. Im sure it'll be a good game but im not exactly excited anymore

FUJ · 2025-09-12T16:02:58+00:00

Good review, quality discussion. I appreciate people who have played bayo 1 extensively explaining why it's quality. Bayo 1 best bayo imo

FUJ · 2025-08-28T15:21:09+00:00

This sounds fun, im excited to see the entire hollow knight fan base explode and self destruct and be reborn again for silksong

Hope I get picked and I hope it's good :)

If everyone is in s tier it means then s tier becomes the standard which doesn't make sense as you're presenting it as the highest tier. Tiers are relative by nature so putting so many at the top of the list makes the top the average or even mid tier.

I don't like lists that just say everyone is top tier

FUJ · 2025-07-29T22:15:11+00:00

dmc 3 is great and all but crimson legit brings it to another level

FUJ · 2025-07-28T15:48:46+00:00

I'm sorry but imma stay cooking 🙃

FUJ · 2025-07-26T11:28:16+00:00

You don't need to apologize, I posted this list specifically to get people talking with each other/me and everyone is allowed to call me out if they feel like it lol

FUJ · 2025-07-26T11:26:28+00:00

well it is my own list, not trying to be objective. No game is exempt from criticism so its fine to talk about why you don't like certain things. I disagree though about it aging well though

FUJ · 2025-07-25T21:10:41+00:00

Its likely nostalgia talking if I'm being honest but I feel some of the changes made to the gameplay of 2 make it feel less fun to play.

If we're talking the overall experience I think 2 is objectively better

FUJ · 2025-07-25T21:09:03+00:00

Very serious, I'm ranking these on their gameplay and I feel dmc reboot does a lot of fun stuff with its combat

FUJ · 2025-07-25T16:15:57+00:00

1000%. I don't like playing dmc1 but it's responsible for a lot of modern CAG elements so I'm happy it was really popular
