I really enjoyed those games back when they came out, and I don’t mind the idea of a remaster in general… but I really don’t want to see certain scenes from those games in HD with remastered models/lighting. Some of them were absolutely brutal, but they were tolerable due to the “gamey” graphics.

goobermembson,

You’re bothered by the brutality in a game called God of War?

The article makes it sound like a load of nothing, let alone enough to justify people here getting excited for a PC version.

Just run them through PCSX2 or RPCS3. They upscale pretty well. They’re not from the PS1 era of everything looking abstract as fuck.

I have a vague memory of swinging milk jugs on a chain from some silly unlockable. Also the very first 10 seconds of the game and you’re fighting a boss really threw me off, but I loved every minute of it lol

It would be a demaster anyway.

Sweet, can’t wait to get it on PC when it gets there. Loved the originals on ps2 as a kid, seeing the hydra get its head shish-kabobed in modern graphics will be even more spine-tingling

Sir_Simon_Spamalot,

Seeing the god of sun having his head pulled apart in a literal sense would be exhilarating!

I’d hope this comes to PC. I only played through Chains of Olympus before GoW 2018

People that only played the newest two are gonna be a little confused when playing this lmao

peanutbutter_gas,

For real. The newest two are more in line with the Last of Us where it was story first, action second. The first games of God of War are a buffet of violence being propped up by a story. Don’t get me wrong, the story line is good, even now. But it was always button mashing, crazy boss fights, brutal kills first.

Hope it comes with story improvements. The best remakes manage to acknowledge future continuity that wasn’t planned yet

Canadian_Cabinet,

Agreed. I loved FFVII’s remaster even though it completely changed so much of the story

metaStatic,

that's why it's called a remake not a remaster

naticus,

And “Remake” is really a subtitle because it’s not a remake of the original, but rather a sequel.

I wouldn’t mind an epilogue in God of War 3 that clears up what exactly happened before GoW 2018.

If my memory is correct there was a comic that takes place in between the two but I’m not sure where to find it.

This would be the 3rd time I could buy it since it launched on PS2. Super weird feel old post of the day for me.

I’d be a lot happier if they spent all of this money making a new game 1% better than getting another lazy fucking cash grab.

Source seems really shakey and… Honestly? I can’t see sony doing this. Kratos has become top sad dad that everyone loves. Going back to mass murderer, rampant misogyny, and questionable consent undermines their brand. Greek kratos had to flee to a non extradition treaty pantheon for many reasons

I also question how much people would actually want to play those at this point. They were b tier spectacle fighters at the time and the overall quality has very much been stepped up in the past twenty years or so

dpkonofa,

Agreed. A remake with the newer mechanics would be welcome. A remaster is just lazy.

Goddamn it I just finished the originals

JackDark, to games in Original God of War trilogy remaster rumoured to be on the way

I already own the originals and the remasters. Let me know when it’s a remake.
