Now that GoW is delayed, as expected...

[Gizmo_Duck]

But this is different, Ps5 can handle shyt the PS4 can't.

And I’m sure it’ll be a major step up with more time, money, and next gen features on the PS5 just like Horizon.

People are gonna feel stupid crying about cross gen after these two games come out

Corey Barlog never said features were cut from GoW because of power constraints he said they were cut because of time.

you right, thought it was features, but content.

We cut a lot of bosses. A lot. We had so many more," he said. "It was a much more ambitious, crazier game. And as you go through development, you start realising, 'No, it's too big, we can't do this.'"

Barlog said a single boss battle took 18 months of work from a team of 30 developers, so as such, the number of boss fights had to be scaled back to make sure the game actually came out this decade. "One boss takes like 30 developers a year and a half. It's an absolutely massive scale when you really consider it, and you measure it against other games in which we finished the game in a year and a half," he said.

The developer also pointed out that the "boss team" had other tasks as well, which took up even more of their time. At the end of the day, Barlog said, "It became a reality that some of these things will have to be cut."

And since then SSM has doubled in size so that won’t be a problem this time around

Horizon gameplay trailer shut all that shyt down in my opinion.
Could it have more stuff that Ps4 can't handle? Probably? Who knows? Could be two different teams working on the different versions.

Meh I'm sure it will still be amazing graphically and be a great game. TLOU2 and GoW at 60fps on PS5 look better than most new games already.

Horizon is last gen too and that gameplay they showed is some of the best graphics I ever saw in my life. Not too worried about GoW being held back.

Games get delayed sometimes it ain't the end of the world.

Demon Souls remake was great, Returnal is great, Spiderman was fun. Ratchet is coming. Some of the best games from last gen got 60fps patches. 20 of the best last gen games are free. There is stuff to play, it ain't the worst experience especially considering Covid.

PS4 had a lackluster first year and ended up with one of the best 1st party libraries ever.

In the end sony is the only platform right now getting 1st party games, both next gen and cross gen and they have mostly all been fire.

The fact that craigbox stans are throwing a parade while literally having nothing new to play on their console since launch is the most divine comedy.

Oh so it's no longer a "horrible idea" now that it's actually reality and not some hypothetical talking point for Stan wars with @The Mad Titan ?

Also, i wonder if other cross-gen titles are gonna face downgrade scrutiny in the same way. Which is why i think making GOW2 cross gen would be a horrible idea and if it’s not cross gen I don’t see it coming out so soon.

I’ve always maintained this energy about HZD FW I’m not even the biggest fan of the original, its a wait and see for me. You can tell even the energy on here and other places on the web is different regarding cross-gen stuff versus new gen only stuff. People will flip the fukk out if GoW is announced to be cross gen. No one wants that because the expectations are dramatically lowered after that.

Just like with Halo, and if they announced Starfield is cross gen there will be backlash also

I'm sure the game turns out great but you're full of shyt as usual

The feeling when you never really said shyt about God of War PS5 in threads so you got receipts proving you're innocent
