Yagmur Sevinc from NoobFeed writes - Combat is incredibly important in a game where the majority of the time is spent kicking and screaming. When the type of combat mechanics a game employs speaks to us, it instantly elevates the mood and makes the game an unforgettable experience. Let us look at some of the games where combat is so addictive that it leaves you with a smile on your face every time you look back at it.
Tom Henderson and Jeff Grubb suggest a 2.5D Metroidvania-style God of War spin-off is in development, set in Greece before Kratos becomes a god.
I wouldn't mind playing that, I'm guessing somewhat in the vein of Prince Of Persia:TLC but hopefully with better graphics.
🤔 Interesting. Nothing wrong with switching it up to a different genre of game for a side project. Hope they don't try to do that to a main entry.
PlayStation - The Concert is a magical musical experience for fans of the brand.
Former PlayStation Studios boss Shuhei Yoshida saw God of War as a "problem" when he first played it, and advocated for its delay.
And it became one of my most favorite games of all time and I still like it more than the sequel.
Well if a game/movie/project needs fixing, especially something with the legacy that god of war does. Delay and fix it, don’t ruin the legacy by releasing crap.
Way to go.
Like Miyamoto famously said.
“A delayed game is eventually good, but a rushed game is forever bad.”
the combat in Control is deeply satisfying imo. you really feel powerful and its slick too.
Oh…how God of War left me in awe of its combat mechanics🤯 And throwing that 🪓 again and again, NEVER gets old😊 Never have I felt more like a complete an utter badass lol. Pardon my language. Well, come to think of it, maybe when I played as Joel in Last of Us, but idk, that’s up for debate haha!
Nod to Control, that has fun combat mechanics.
Could have gone a bit further and checked older games. God Hand had an incredibly addictive combat style imo.
Let's not forget Devil May Cry 5 too!
I would add:
-Doom Eternal
-DMC5
-Spider-Man (I think they managed to differentiate from the Arkham formula, since they don’t have a “counter” button. And the zip-punch is perfect to keep momentum going)
My personal fav combat:
1. Destiny 2
2. Skyforge
3. Control
4. DMC 3
5. BF3
6. Titanfall 2
7. Arkham Series
8. Tekken
9. HL2 series
10. Homeworld series
All for different reasons
