Honestly it’s wild it didn’t happen sooner. Here’s hoping it comes to PC eventually, but until then we have emulators.
One can hope, but while Uncharted: A Thief’s End and Ratchet and Clank: Rift Apart came to PC, the remasters of their previous games have not. It seems unlikely this will be any different.
Ah, that’s fair. Emulation it is.
Now that we have “relatable dad Kratos” I don’t really want to go back to the original games.
The new games I honestly think improve the originals. It makes it far more interesting than just the revenge story it was before
Yeah I agree. Even the new ones aren’t great storywise, but Kratos being a dad is way better than the old scenario I don’t even remember.
Wasn’t he a dad in the old ones, too? I vaguely remember something about him protecting his family or some kind of tragedy related to them.
yes he was already a father. Ares tricked him into killing his wife and child. so his whole revenge arc spirals from that.
Even his skin is white/gray because it’s covered in the ashes of his wife and daughter.
Right? It humanizes the half-god. And yet I just saw earlier that that was David Jaffe’s (original creator) biggest complaint of the new Kratos.
I was also surprised to read that. I even tried to forget who Kratos was in the first games to focus on the new ones.
Kratos was a bit one note in the originals.
I just hope they update some of the outdated mechanics like all the quick-time events. The accessibility features in the newer games are excellent.
is Sony now also creatively bankrupt? I mean come on how many games do they want to remake? Release the HD collection together with the third part for current systems and put your devs on something new, the games are perfectly playable even by today standards…
Both gow 1 and 2 are classics, maxing out the ps2 hardware - not sure I’d revisit via a remaster though given the button mashing / ate but still worthy for an update.
