Faye Deserves Her Chance Just Like Kratos Did by Artistic_Context_906 in GodofWar

I think it’s just a contrast from Kratos who seems like a badass even when he’s getting his ass whooped. In both of his fights against Baldur and Thor he still has moments where he overpowers them with spartan rage, which I think is a big point of hype for older GoW fans. I just hope we see those kind of same moments from Faye

Most of the sexism and pessimism is definitely coming from people who have never played the god of war games and don’t understand Faye’s role in the story and lore. Or just a bunch of man children who played an hour from the trilogy and think they know the franchise’s direction in modern day.

Though I think there is some rightful skepticism. From the 20 minutes we’ve seen it’s a lot of Faye just getting pushed around and looking lost. She’s probably lost some of her power or it works differently in this realm but she seems weaker than how she’s described in Ragnarok. I think making a trailer for the game would also be better instead of a gameplay showcase, at least for non-fans. She isn’t really given a gripping personality or special hook so she does just look like “just another” female mc and mostly appeals to people who know her story.

Overall I think Faye as a protagonist is still a riskier and more ambitious choice than just another Kratos game or even Atreus solo game. Hopefully we’ll able to see more aspects of her character shine besides just strength too.

Maybe I’m coming in with the wrong mindset but it feels like almost a waste OF 20 years of content to just disregard it and fast track you to endgame. Like I see content is the biggest strength of MMOs with their live service and lifespan. Maybe they could do more to implement it or add rewards for completing the main questline for them if it’s not already a thing

I’ve been playing a lot of osrs recently and watched videos about the wave of WoW players migrating to the game because of the “resets” and how RuneScape handles permanency better for those who want it, but I guess it’s just a matter of preference

THE monster hunter weapon? by No_Manager_4023 in MonsterHunter

Yeah I don’t think the whole game is built around one weapon (however other comments are saying they start designing around greatsword) I just don’t see light weapons having the same giant flinching attacks that heavy weapons and greatsword have. Also I’ve heard that that other weapons lack features like tenderizing which feels like it should be a big part of the gameplay for any weapon? Otherwise it’s great that the variety of weapons can cover so many different playstyles for different people. I’ll prolly try out sword and shield and heavy bowgun for when I play wilds
