Putting this out there.
Joel from TLOU and Kratos have a ton of parallels.
Both are endeared to the player by loss of family members.
Both do terrible, horrible things in their quest for revenge.
Both can be seen as the bad guy when you look at their actions from an outside perspective.
Both attempt to find redemption through somebody who reminds them of their lost family member.
Both have great beards.
@sentinel-beach I've still got my Pandora's Box too. It sits on my computer desk.
Probably my second favorite piece of gaming tat I own next to the Infamous shoulder bag.
Don't need to make yet another post on these forums about why God of War means so much to me.
I love the series, and this game was an absolute mind blower. There were moments when I was actually physically repulsed by the lengths Kratos was going to to get his revenge. The finisher you do in the Helios battle actually made me drop the controller.
Would have been sour if it wasn't in a top five spot.
@bam541 Dunno. That was just what was being advertised on my FB feed.
Either way, that is a big increase over AC Odyssey's Ultimate Edition which was 120.
Welp.
Looks like next gen is going to be getting a lot more expensive.
@mbun lol dude those are some pretty wild mental gymnastics you had to do to discount Sony's support for indies this generation.
A cursory glance at Sony's history with indie devs will show you they've gone above and beyond supporting indie developers this generation. Whether you want to believe they did or not is neither here nor there.
I also don't understand how, using your own examples, Nintendo has done any better a job. In what ways have they supported indie developers that Sony did not?
I'm also not sure why you even brought up cross platform play. Sony were supporting and pushing for cross platform play for years before Microsoft tried to strong arm them into supporting their dying platform.
@dipset Welcome to my life.
I never buy games at launch anymore unless it's an absolute banger that means a lot to me like God of War or a game all my boys are playing.
The amount of money I've saved is probably insane. Like bro, I got the Ultimate Edition of AC Odyssey a few months ago, normally 120 bux, for 23.
@mbun I assume you're talking about Sky.
ABZÚ came first and was a timed PS4 console exclusive.
Sony has shown tremendous love to indies this gen.
Rezogun was considered one of the first "must have" games on PS4.
No Man's Sky was treated like a first party title. Undertale got a physical release on PS4 and Vita. Rocket League was given as a free game on PS Plus the week it launched.
Axiom Verge, What Remains of Edith Finch, Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice, Nex Machina, Firewatch, Everybody's Gone to the Rapture, etc etc etc...
Yeah, sorry, I'm just not seeing how they "ignored indies" like at all.
If he had a tempered and reasonable response to the leaks his fanbase would have eaten him alive.
Look at what happened to Idubbbz. Dude said his opinion on sex work had matured and his fanbase of ravenous edgelords turned on him and called him a simp.
@scotty answered your own question with that last line.
