God of War III — Early Thoughts
Posted by Allan in Games, Prose on March 17, 2010 1:30 am
Just a few random things…
- Running on Normal Difficulty ’cause I’m lame like Hephaestus
- Turn on the captioning. I realized this late enough that I missed a few things early on.
- Water-horse. Ha! Hopefully the Loch Ness Monster was not offended.
- ..aaaand of course the requisite Kratos-gimping. (yeah, SPOILER ALERT!)
- With all the notes I’m finding, I assume that someone must be handing out school supplies at the entrance of the underworld. Also, I wish I knew more mythology to understand some of the allusions. The Persephone storyline is a nice touch though.
- Blades of Chaos/Athena/Exile — the chained swords change names more frequently than Puff Daddy! Yeah, I know they’re supposedly different swords each time. Right. Same shape, new paint job, new name.
- Why can’t I use the blade of olympus in regular combat? Am I missing something?
- The magic has been pretty mediocre so far. Where’s my force-lightning? I like my force-lightning.
- And lastly, for now, one of the main thoughts is “damn, I’m sure I’ve already missed collecting a few items along the way.”
