In response to some negative comments about his new game, David Jaffe told certain gamers to "go fu** themselves." Is this all right? Absolutely.
Terri writes: "In a recent video released by the creator of the God of War series, David Jaffe, we can see that Jaffe is not fond of the direction PlayStation took regarding the franchise, and in particular, Kratos himself."
Well, I personally think that Santa Monica did an absolutely phenomenal job with Kratos, showcasing insane character development in all the right ways.
Wasn't Jaffe the one who got stuck on something easy in Metroid Dread and started bashing the game because of it? From what I played of GoW 2018, they actually gave Kratos some much-needed depth. I definitely plan to finally go through the newer entries once my PS5 comes in.
This whole video was essentially him finding comments to back up his own opinion. "It looks like a lot of people think..."
Yeah, well what do the review scores, sales, user scores, and completion rates on the last two say? Anything on that?
People won’t like it I know but he’s entitled to his opinion being the games creator
I totally disagree but it’s not going to ruin the game for us who do like it
Game director David Jaffe reveals that the original God of War 2005 was considered for a first-person viewpoint.
Im very glad it did not end up that way. In first person you would lose the scale the game has. That is something i really appreciate about the GoW games is the immense size and scale of the environments and how the camera zooms out to show it in a much grander view.
One of the unlockables in the original God of War was a first person representation of God of War. A consideration for a spin-off/sequel was presented as a FPS in modern times. The military finds the dead Titan (Chronos I believe) and goes into the mountains where Kratos found Pandora's Box. Very interesting idea and gave me Clive Barker Jericho vibes.
Maybe the Egyptian era for the PS6 would switch to first-person just to keep things fresh
David Jaffe says he doesn’t believe a new game is in the works; “I haven’t heard a thing".
IF a new game is in the works (I hope so), I don't care if Jaffe is part of it or not. There are a lot of talented game directors out there. Twisted Metal might be his baby, but Jaffe isn't a guarantee lock in developing the best version.
Jaffe is all over the place now. Whenever he gets brought up it’s on some weird shit. I wouldn’t blame Sony for leaving him out of the mix even though I still respect his older works.
Well his "revival" of the franchise sucked out loud, so not sure what he expects.
I don't get the negative comments... The game looks really original, and could certainly be fun as hell based on the preview we got to see. Thank goodness we still have people creating unique things for the industry.
David Jaffe did Twisted Metal and God of War, and Drawn to Death looks unique and fun.
He can say what he wants, he clearly knows how to make awesome games
Personally, I think the game looks pretty bad. I never really cared enough to bad mouth it, but I'm surprised how he reacted towards the negative criticism. He comes off as childish.
Sure why not, I mean if people can drop the comments they were dropping about his game he has every right to reply with the same negativity.
I personally don't see the appeal in the game but if I left "it sucks" comment in his thread I wouldn't be surprised when he comes back on me with an equal negative comment.
Play nice and expect to get treated nicely.
Jaffe loves to act like a whiny 14 year old girl.
