Theory: every creation story is greatly exaggerated and that’s how all the pantheons exist simultaneously.

I know it’s been theorized a lot that all the different lands/pantheons exist in their own little universes and that’s why all their creation stories are different. But I’m pretty sure Cory Balrog confirmed that the very pantheons exist simultaneously in the same world.

With that in mind, it made me think that the stories we know about the Primordials or Ymir/Ginnungagap might not be 100% true. I also think it’s important to note that both creation stories are first told by antagonists (Gaia and Odin) who could potentially be unreliable narrators. Like I think it’s interesting how the Primordials we see in Ascension are colossal elemental deities but then we look at Thanatos who looks just a dark Olympian.

With the recent Playstation news regarding physical games, I'm never getting rid of these

I'm playing everything again to get ready for GOW Laufey

How far do you think the Norse pantheon would get vs the Greek one? (Individual fights)

the rules are simple: the gods of the norse will fight the gods of olympus in the order Kratos fought them, the fight has to end in a kill or making them unable to fight (aka Thor can't just... smack things back to the past) and them's the rules.

I have fun thinking of ways for the greek ones to to bypass some of the BS the Norse fellas have (Baldur's immortality, Heimdall's mind reading, so on.)

As a newbie to the series. What would you say are the 3 or 4 cannot miss games?

I do not own a PlayStation, I have played the last two games via Steam and fell in love. I plan to emulate the older games.

Which games are ones I HAVE to play and which ones would you say I could get by with watching cut scenes of?

Fell in love with this franchise and I have no idea how I went this long without playing it. That said, I'm pretty busy and only want to play the best of the best before playing the others

Is Thor really the most powerful Norse god as the Vanir said?

Dose that mean Thor is stronger than Freya, Freyr and even Odin?

The constant handholding is by far my biggest issue with this game.

I'm currently replaying Ragnarok on PC after only playing it once on release on PS5. I remember being annoyed by the handholding and constant NPC advice the first time as well but now that I'm playing it again after some years later it's even worse than I remember.

You literally cannot go through one minute without someone reminding you stuff or telling you where to go and what to do, not only in puzzles but in simple level progression as well.

"Hit the red pots", "Father this way", "Hey look up there", "Oh we must go up/down there". Like come on why did they do this.

No matter who the companion is, the moment you come across a puzzle or roadblock, every single time the NPC reminds you what to do in order to continue. Why does this game treat me as if I'm braindead?

I don't remember the first game being like this.

Some of my favorites from the photo modes of God of War III Remastered, God of War (2018) and Ragnarok

u/Kiki_And_Horst — 10 hours ago

Just beat 3 for the first time

This was my first of the og trilogy. I played ragnarok as my first ever gow game bc I gifted it to my brother on my console. I understand the preference in combat now. I like how seamless it is using the L1+X to switch between weapons and combo that way and switch again. I wish there was something like that in ragnarok rather than hitting my dpad and back buttons every time I want to switch. Can’t wait for remakes to play the first two games as well

Never played a PlayStation game before, is God of War (2018) the right place to start?

I recently watched my favorite YouTuber's reaction to God of War Laufey, and wow... the game looked absolutely incredible.

To give a bit of context, I've never played a PlayStation exclusive before. I've been a PC gamer my whole life, mostly because PlayStation isn't officially supported in my country, so consoles and games have always been very expensive. The same goes for Xbox. Because of that, I never really imagined owning a console.

After watching that video, though, I couldn't stop thinking about God of War. I looked into it and found out that the two most recent God of War games have been released on PC. I also saw that God of War (2018) won Game of the Year, so I started considering picking it up on Steam while it's on sale for $20.

Now, I know $20 doesn't sound like much to a lot of people, but for me it's about a week's wages because of the exchange rate and the fact that I have to pay in USD. It would also be my first time buying a single-player game. I've spent my entire life playing online competitive games like league of legends, so this would be a completely new experience for me.

So I wanted to ask: would you recommend God of War (2018) to someone in my situation? Is it a good first story-driven game for someone who's only ever played competitive multiplayer games?

Part of me is also hoping that if I end up loving it, it might be the start of a new hobby—and maybe I'll save up enough to buy a PS5 and experience more PlayStation games.

I'd really love to hear your thoughts. Thanks!

Where are my Anchors of Fog?

I have opened every chest in the centre, have unnecessarily bought all Niflheim armors (no upgrades so far), and I have enough Mist Echoes to open all 3 Realm Tears. Yet no matter how thorough I am with opening all chests, the game refuses to give me a single Anchor of Fog
