I didn't grow up with it. Played the first one from 2005 about 8 months ago for the first time.
Playing God of War 2 now. Will play God of War 3 and the PSP games and never touch the reboot.
I'm not "they ruined my childhood, Kratos was my guy and he was so awesome to me and they did this to him", like that.
I just objectively see that God of War PS2 and PS3 era is just some pulpy testosterone fueled Greek adventure, like a Jason and the Argonauts sort of deal on steroids and meth, whereas the reboot is clearly a feminine "muh modern writing" garbage.
Yeah I'm not team "Kratos 4 lyfe" like I am with Max Payne, a character I really love, but I recogonize the difference in the characterization objectively.
Same with Doctor Who. I don't give a crap about Doctor Who. Don't watch it. But I can see from a distance what they're doing with that character as opposed to what it used to be.
I heard theyre not as good, but I figure after the third one, just some hack n slash fun, not expecting much. They run pretty much perfect on the hd remaster on rpcs3 (PS3 emulator).
Just will be playing it for some somewhat similar gameplay, not expecting it to be as good or "epic"
They even ran pretty well on the psp. Does the third one run without issues? I remember playing through all gods some years ago and when i got to the third one it had all sorts of bugs.
Idk I always thought Kratos was a pretty shitty character.

I wouldn't recommend the psp ones.

Nah, he was great, unless you mean shitty as in he's a villain, then yeah
Yeah, I remember that game for the art style, more than anything else.
