I am more into the story/phenomenal artwork with the original God of Wars, as well as the scope of the boss fights, more than I was into the gameplay. So that is why I was so fond of them. I really enjoyed their rendition of the Greek Mythos.

Now after seeing this gameplay trailer, I am actually just as pumped for the gameplay/immersion aspect, as I am to see their rendition of Valhalla and the amazing artwork to accompany it.

Some people have said the boss fight reminded them of a Souls boss fight a bit. Have not played a Souls game since Demon Souls on the PS3 (in which I only played a couple of hours before it got shelved when I was taken away from gaming for contract work), and just recently got Bloodborne which I have to play soon.

E3 2016: We Came So Close to Getting an Egyptian God of War

Quote:

"We are parsing it as the time in which the Vikings spoke of their Gods walking the Earth," creative director Cory Barlog told a panel at E3 2016, as reported by Eurogamer.net. "So it's not in the era where the Vikings are around, we're predating them by a considerable amount of time."

Quote:

Of course, Norse mythology wasn't the only idea that the developer had. "Egyptian mythology was the other one and half the team was way into that," he said. "All of them had great reasons. I think, for me, as I looked at both of those, Egyptian mythology is about the pharaohs as embodiments of the Gods on Earth and there's a lot more about civilisation – it's less isolated, less barren. I think at this time, we really wanted to focus on Kratos."

Quote:

The new God of War represents a departure for the series, with Kratos living life more prosaically with his son. But fans of the franchise for its bombast won't be left behind. "I think spectacle is part of our DNA," he admitted. "I made a very deliberate choice not to put that in this demo. We needed to stand out a little bit and show people why we changed this game. But there's still the David vs. Goliath. The troll fight is a small version of what we really have to show."

Might be too old and have arthritis by then lol. Hopefully by then we can control games with our mind.

Man, not to me. The Norse take on this is badass. But yah, who's to say that won't be another option down the road...

Some interesting theories on the story. Possible spoilers.
