The puzzle and platforming are not bad you just don't like them in my opinion and that fine they are hard as fuck !
For my part when I was 9 I could not pass the trap with the box and spikes on the floor , I have rage so mutch on this trap , I can't count how manny hour I've wasted on this section of the game.
That game is like a brother to me I growed up with it , more than mastered it.
@@mathmath_I honestly hate them but opinions matter and remember he said that’s MY OPINION ON IT that’s his vision on it that’s how he sees it
I never understood why 1 he he's such a huge blades 2 why one of them turned red and one Yellow I mean ok he collects red orbs he's blades woud turn red but why yellow I still have no explanation
I've always loved GoW 1's platforming and puzzles. They made me feel like I was Kratos, they felt like a challenge, something I had to think about and push myself to do. After completion, the feeling of satisfaction was really great. I think this has made the Cliffs of Madness puzzle and the blades tower in Hades some of my favorite parts of the game and the franchise :)
Interested take!
Cliffs of madness puzzles are just slow. That's what i hate about them
@@ExtremeGameplays1 I understand you bro, Kratos could push those blocks faster lol
You right man, because the platforming & puzzle, it make me feel the actual adventure because it's challenging, deadly but it can get frustrated unlike the new gow it doesn't make me feel that, the puzzle not that challenging (atleast better then tlou and skyrim puzzle), & no platforming, they even took away the jumping because they think it's not emmersive & there's no platforming after all, just the stupid automatic jump that give you zero challenge, i just don't like exploring semi-open world game that doesn't give me a freedom to moving around it's just make me feel like I was exploring a horror game why they just took some inspiration with darksiders (it's a good game btw I highly recommended) but thankfully atleast there's some verticality in ragnarok
The 6th thing it did wrong is that there aren’t enough THICC characters
Bruh THEY ALL THICC
@@ExtremeGameplays1 BUT NOT THICC ENOUGH
@@a-simple-normal-toaster bruh they all thick
@@Aphrodite-85 still not as thick as ares’s ego
@@Aphrodite-85 well ur aphrodite you would say that -_-
My only complaints of this amazing game are: the damn minotaurs block too damn much, every enemy is too tanky and that whole damn Hades level janky as hell
Yeah. It's annoying
@@ExtremeGameplays1 But that's realistic. The minotaurs are trying to save there lifes.
God of war 1 has the hardest enemies in the entire series especially the minotaurs with insane HP pool
tbh I didn't find them so hard. All I did was swipe them into the air and cyclone of chaos them back to the *DEPTHS OF HADES*
random fact: i discovered that if you have all items upgraded (blades,magic,blade of artemis)
all red orb chests transform into magic chests instead 🤓(same as the white chests turning into red chests when you have all HP and magic upgrades)
i dont know if this was a feature or something but here you go :)
Yeah I remember that happening in my last playthrough. Well spotted bro.
The thing I hate the most about the first one is the button mashing when you need to press circle. Anything after normal mode almost breaks the controller because they expect you to press circle 50x in a second. It made Godmode nearly impossible to beat. Thankfully, these are fixed on later episodes.
One of the things I disliked was that Ares always gave you tons of Magic and Health, giving you the chance to always spam magic. They should've given the Bossfight more resource management so the fight would be even more epic.
*Cries in Godmode
Hell no it would've been ass without it on harder modes when you get spanked out of parry ING
@@thatitalianlameguy2235 Never said they should scrap it. But during the fight, he just gives you way too much health and magic so you can easily, even on the hardest difficulty, get through the first phase, which is also the best part of the fight.
14:07 My man described my first playthroughts, for real, I never used my RotG's because unless I was facing harder enemies, it never really my mind.
15:27 AYO, the hell is this rollercoaster of a story? It feels... so damn ACCURATE.
I would like to mention, 2005 brought to me the best action games of my life: DMC3 & GOW and they got bested only by their sequels.
Zesty,
Brotha you have taken the spot of my new favorite channel. None of my friends are as into God of War as I am (i’ve platinumed all the games and even bought god of war 3 on ps3 on ebay to platinum it again after just doing it on the remaster) but you are about my age and watching your videos feels like talking to a friend my age in depth about God of War in a way I usually can’t because none of my friends prob care to hear me talk about God of War that much LOL. Keep up the good work bro, love your content and I hope it loves me too 🥺👉👈
Man i feel you! Same thing here, i'm the only one THAT interested in gow!
Me too no one is interested in this, my brother used to love so much but since release of Gow 4 he just doesn't care about it anymore
I feel you to man, I know that kind of pain, you wanted to tell someone (your friend or brother for exemple) but no one could understand or even care what you talking about, but don't worry you welcome in here
We all gotta respect santa monica for the amazing soundtracks not only in gow1 IN EVERY SINGLE GOD OF WAR GAME
I forgot to mention the Cyclops with Bone shape swords they are exclusive to God of war 1 only and the hardest Cyclops to defeat from the entire series if anyone noticed that and God of war 1 also have the best soundtracks tell me if anything can beat Ares Theme will be zues but nothing can compete against it
The original trilogy had some of the best music PERIOD
GoW2 has the best soundtrack for 😤
These bone sword cyclops on god mode can fuck right off, jesus christ
You mean the "Cyclops Desert Kings"?
I think that Magic is in This game is both vert good and terribly wrong:
The magic is fun to use flows very well Into the game and most of those magic attacks are All incredibly Strong. Which is the down side. Magic in GoW 1 is completly Overpowered. Not just Hades’ army, Poseidon is the first Magic you get and you can use it all throught the game because of how broken it is and medusas’ head is medusa’s head.
It’s obvious Why They Did Rage mode that away, But… If you max Out the Blades you get infinite magic while on Rage mode.
Yeah it felt as if The Lighting of Zeus felt useless. I did like to use it against Ares, but they should've given it way more features
One thing about the end cutscene of the game, I don't think they got it wrong, I think they just didn't explain it as well as the novels
Where instead of him overseeing all the battles in real time
They were just visions he saw as he sat on the throne
Combine the fact that i get worried to not waste the rage mode in a easy encounter makes me not use it 95% of the game.
Right? And that sucks
Am I a psychopath for rarely failing at the spinning bladed climbing column in Hades? Should I seek help?
No. You're just good at it
I think the reason the blades are gone in the Thor fight is because tyr took them along with Atreus on a journey of some kind, that is why he was getting them (just for the journey) and that is why they were holding hands like that bidding eachother goodbye for now. Just a theroy and my first theroy I put out. Not really a theory either
Wow
@@ExtremeGameplays1 I mean for there own journey😭 that sounded like I mean kidnapping, but would explain the reason they were embracing like that maybe as a goodbye while tyr took Atreus on the journey and did not want tyr empty handed
Lol... Thor fight happens very early in the game, they haven't even left for Svartalfheim. Explanation is way simpler.
EG: Hades spike tower is hell!
Speedruners: And we took that personely
I loved this video man, I couldn't agree more. There's so much combo you could do with blade of chaos that's why I love blade of chaos more then laviethan axe because there's so much potential with blade of chaos (sadly in gow 4 or ragnarok they still not adding auriel combat, the one of the reason why blade of chaos is such a cool weapon), the animation in this game are one of the most smooth animation back then and it's also flashy and more acrobatic rather then the new god of war, I just hope whem they remaking this game they at even more combo, two different type of dodge, balancing weapon, more weapon (if they wanted), more enemy & balancing them, fix the rage mode, adding ascension grapple mechanic, more brutal axcecution enemy and more smooth gameplay also making all the bosses in that game more fun to combo with them and changing some platforming section to be more easy, & also 8:14 I like the soundtrack and F*CK YOU THOR FAN IMMA F**KING ARES ENJOYER 😎
I like this vid and I love GoW 1 but three of the flaws are literally just personal cuz if u think that not getting orbs cuz ur so damn fast and far away and dont want to wait for all of it to go in ur bar or taking too long to upgrade or rage taking forever to recharge is what someone would say if they are impatient. I wouldnt say this cuz I aint impatient.
Bro :) there's a reason why all of the points i mentioned got fixed in god of war 2 :) it's not just me. The DEVS realized they're bad as well
I bet u those ":)" mean no offence since u now know that if I take offence from my fav ytuber, I will cry. But I'm sorry for not knowing that's why made that into a flaw but I won't cuz not all of us think the same and that's why I made my point. Now, will you forgive me brother? (act like this is a Kratos & Deimos type of dialogue)
@@HajjDoDo a spartan never let's his back hit the ground
@@ExtremeGameplays1 Come on, the battle isn't over. we must destroy Rangarok and show me if there is a way I can appreciate the new gow games!
Put commas next time
15:18
I completely agreed here i played the game again like month ago it pisses me off so much.
Ah yes God of war 1 platforming peak gaming experience
Great Video...as always. As far as the soundtracks is concerned....MAN you don't even realise the feeling you get when you can understand the lyrics of the orchestra. I am Greek and it took me years to mature enough and be taught some ancient greek to be able too. But even now after this game even inspired me to give more attention to the ancient form of my tounge, holy shit it uses some BIG words in ancient Greek some of them even useable nowdays. They actually praise Kratos and his might and the mad lads even succeeded into rhyming the actual words with that awesome music. I mean soundtracks like ,The splendors of Athens, path of hades. Zeus wrath divine ,duel with Ares, Temple Minotaur, The architect's maddness, challenge of poseidon and Amphitrite's secret or my favourite , Winding through the temple. Those themes man are my childhood.
Yoo this was really interesting to know! And i'm sure it was awesome to learn it bro!
@@ExtremeGameplays1 Indeed dude. An experience that follows you for the rest of your life ! Keep it up man with the content love it!
Bruh, I beat the climbing puzzle in 10 minutes... ON MOBILE! On damon ps2, which is saying something. Ngl, I thought it was a meme to hate on it on the Internet.
Alright, so I watched the video, and I agree with a lot of what you said. Here are some of my take aways of what I feel that the game did wrong. Keep in mind that most of these things that I think that the game did wrong are mostly due to the devs not taking certain things into account and perhaps having oversights that were improved upon in the sequels like you mentioned.
1.) The first thing that I feel that the game did wrong was the spacing of certain areas. The footage you used in the video is actually a perfect example of this. A lot of areas in the game can either feel very open or very cramped. This isn't an issue per say, you can manage just well in some of the more claustrophobic areas, but it is notable considering how some areas were so open that you can actually just ignore the enemies by running past them until you reach the next danger zone and so closed together that you felt like you were fighting enemies inside of a box. God of War 2 solved this issue by not having the camera so zoomed in on Kratos' body or the action and open danger zones with more enemies, sometimes bigger enemies, and more aggressive enemies types from what I remember. And the camera angle in GoW2 was also used more cinematically as mentioned in your video about how it always showcases the Temple of the Fates in the background. That's already 1-2 things that GoW2 does right.
2.) The second thing that I feel GoW does wrong is its use of backtracking, specifically in Pandora's Temple. I understand that thematically the Temple is supposed to feel like an impossible maze and the climax of Kratos' journey (Or so we thought.), but it really felt like the level overstayed it's welcome a bit once we had to keep returning to the center wheel several times. Backtracking is a staple of the GoW games and it's good to see that the later games were a bit more lenient and creative with how they had the players returning to different areas.
That's all that I can think of at the moment.
Video idea: After you finish god of war ragnarok you can make a video where you say what you liked about the greek era and what you liked about the norse era and compare them
One of my favourite games of all time, and probably still my favourite in the franchise. This game was just epic on a whole other level back in the day, and it's extremely nostalgic and sentimental for me. ❤
We are close to end of gaming... graphics and details rich the max on 400 fps or someshit idk... the vr could be the savior of it also gow 3 is overrated
I don't like the fact Kratos can't use the blade of Olimpus as he coud in the 2 and the fact the blade it's golden and has blue magic in it I mean comon I want red weapons I want to turn all of them into red I don't like the glows of Hades because they are purple
"Crazy ass GTX 1080 ti graphics" *Laughs in rtx 2080 ti*
God of War 1 is ahead of it's Time this Game introducts me in this Series and it's one of my Favorite Game Franchise of all Time.
Imagine attempting the no hit challenge on gow platforming💀
Yeah bro. No bro.
i only hate the graphics in first 😂
Why tho? What game looked this good in 2005
Except for re4
For me the biggest change I would make to God of War 1 is to have challenge select for challenge of the gods
I dare you to compare God of war Ragnarok to god of war 2 their both Cory barlog sequels
Btw did you know a guy who goes by the name satvara speedran this godly game in an hour and 20 minutes and you should see his methods
5:10 STFU I love this place! 😂
I somewhat love it too for the combat encounters :D
@@ExtremeGameplays1 It’s the appearance, HEIGHT and overall concept for me
the cliffs of madness jigsaw puzzle idea would have been cool if you could spin the blocks like you can in GOW3 when you move objects
Great idea... BUTT (naked kratos picture) god of war 2 did everything right and i can't wait to see your favourite game of all time WRONGS 😈
Yup. Gonna have to REEEAAALLY nitpick about 2 and 3 😂
ExtremeGameplays: Where you snatch an enemy and play with him however you want
12:51 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
What really is the best thing about all that you mentioned is that it was made in 2005!
Imagine being a Santa Monica employee in 05 and some guy just presents you with so much stuff to create!
The Spike Trap Room in the Cliffs of Madness keeps ticking me off
Do one for chains of Olympus or ghost of Sparta 😀
Will do
i think its amazing how gow2 fixed like almost all of these problems if not all, like gah damn
Another thing I hated was the fact that your weapons and magics ended up turning red at the higher levels.
Blades of Chaos? Red, ok that's cool.
Souls of Hades? From pretty to Red. Uhhhhh......
Zeus' Lightning? Add a bit of red? DONE
The pretty bluey-purple Blade of Artemis? RED, NOW!!!
LET'S ADD RED STREAKS TO RAGE OF THE GODS TOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Like bro, chill out with the red pls. We like other colours to the spectrum too.
Damn i never thought about that 😂 they DO add a of red to stuff
@@ExtremeGameplays1 I thought Medusa's Gaze was Red too. But I think that was GOW2s Eurales Gaze.
bro said without needing crazy graphics card like a gtx 1080 Ti in thin gen that card is trash lol love ur vids man
Idk man is it good :D not that familiar with pc stuff
Thing God of war assencion did better than god of war 4
God of war alone made my childhood epic and made my mind blow.
The problem with gow4 music is ..... in previous games we Connot return to the same place as much as we like ....
So the story continues as we play and music is set on the specific part ....
But in gow4 you can return to the same place again n again ( except for freya's house, Jötunheim, tyr's treasure's, etc ) so according to my theory gow4 only used music in some special places and fights.
BTW Love your videos man❤️❤️
And I really love your combos in each and every series 🤩
You can return to Týr's Treasure Room wtf
@@ВладиславБулаев-л3э sorry bro my bad..... But My point was about the music
Nice video,now continue making this series with other installments
cry raging also known as baby rage
11:29 here comes the good part??? really. hahahaa
I freaking hate the spinning blades in hades.WHOSE IDEA WAS TO PUT THAT SHIT ON THE GAME oh my god I remember screaming because I kept on falling over and over again
One of the best games , and i agree some puzzles we're just anoying and unnessesary , i can only imagine a GOW 1 Remake with better combat like GOW3 but the same good story , oh man !!! 🤔😃🤩🤯 hope we'll see it some day 😅
Come one man! Have any idea?
Why the baldes of chaos stays on Kratos back without any hook or support?
Idk bro. Cuz they follow him wherever he goes?
@@ExtremeGameplays1 I know but. The Axe has a hook on Kratos back on his armor. but in every GOW game. Blades are just on his back without any hook or support and when Kratos put them back on his back. They gets stuck in air.
How is it possible.? is there any magic for it? .
Even Kaptain Kuba didn't know the answer.
how did you play god of war 1 and 2 in ps4?
Ah, yes. The challenge of hades balancing section. It was FUCKING SHITPEANUT on the PSVita version, for if you slipped off balance, Kratos did not use his arm not to fall, so, insta death if you happen to hit the left stick a bit off
Hiiii zesty
Hiii
I always thought that god of war was annoying but I never got the chance to play it so I just said that but when I found your stilysh channel I CHANGED MY MIND and I pulled my crusty dusty nasty psp and I bought god of war chains of Olympus and ghost of Sparta and god I loved that game so much that I played it for over 100hours in 2 weeks
Wow you changed me
If you're a gamer, never listen to IGN. If a game seems interesting to you and you like it, that's all that matters. God of War is such an awesome series, great story, gameplay, music and everything you want out of a game. There's DMC and GOW, they are hands down the GOATS of action/adventure games. ✌😎👍
"you should know how to play with your food" - heh, i see what you did there. NGL, man, GOW will allways have a special place in my heart.
Ghost rider playstyle is more like bayonetta than gow
Only simmilarity is camera and doge mechanic
Also Johnny was fighting using chains before Kratos:D
Are you Ethan Winterss voice actor from re7?
Yes
I was wondering, how long did you punch Zeus after the screen faded to red in GoW3? I dunno about my record, but no less than 30 minutes, after Finally finishing GoW2 in Titan mode, I swore I'll punch his face off for an entire hour...
Ohhhh the menu ost is the best ever
God of War 1 is still my absulute favourite game of all time. For me, it's the best from the series. If there wouldn't be any sequels, GoW still would be a whole, finished story. But thank god we got the sequels (and prequels). Fun fact: Cory Barlog's favourite game is the very first GoW too. He said it in the interview with Jon Ford. I completely agree on the list, however I think the puzzles were really good and I didn't struggle with the Hades section a lot, but that's maybe just me. :D Might be strange but I think I love the music the most from the game. It's so nice that you mentioned ambient tracks, they're well fit especially when you're in Pandora's Temple. It gives you a feeling that you're in an ancient and dark place with full of mysteries. However there's a bug, if once the "Architect's Mysteries" starts to play in the Rings of Pandora, it never stops until you quit the game and reload it. Great video! I think I'm gonne play some original GoW again soon on my PS3. I just can't get bored of it.
The novel mentions Zeus refusing to wash away Kratos's memories, being a dick as he does, unlike Athena who wanted to fulfill her promise but was prevented.
I have a ps2 and i am getting money to buy a...
Ps3
No realy a ps3
Maybe buy a ps4 or ps5 lol
@@skillzas1557 my money dosent double double it shrinks
also I agree with everything in the video I hope Gow Ragnarok does the same for Gow 2018
bring gow 2 vid asap
But🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣
As time passes by I start to see more and more why the original trilogy is better and superior to god of war 4 imo
9:50
The most soundtrack i have heard
Well becuse of god mode diffculty
And about the no music part of some places in gow asecntion and gow 4 i didnt give much attention well becuse i played dark souls 1 a lot
(love your videos btw)
Yaa man these puzzy and platforming were hard but it feel epic and mythological. wish they add a little in Ragnarok because gow 2018 have literally no puzzle and platforming
11:29 ayo, bro got cake?
11:28 😂 wtf was that
Bruh splendor of Athens is my favorite soundtrack. It's every underrated
Ah sweet. You did my suggestion. I'll have to check it out later and make a follow up comment.
Ami me encantaron los puzzles de god of war 1 ,pero siempre detestare las partes de parkur que tiene el juego unas mecánicas son muy creativas y son fáciles de entender pero IMPOSIBLE DE EJECUTAR un ejemplo es el desafío de los dioses , la torre con cuchillos del infierno ,el parkur con ares ,el desafío final antes de tener la caja fe Pandora etc
12:00 MY EYESSSSS!!!!
wide kratos skin
Good idea of a video
Actually Kratos didnt want his revenge on Aries he only kill him bc the gods said they would take away his nightmares if he did which they lied 🤓
bro challange 10 guide
EARLY GANGGGG!!!!
The path of Hades is my all time favourite stage in God of war franchise
Yaa it's damnn hard but that is the reason why I like it very much
gow 1 is very underrated imo
Honestly yeah
Depends on who you're referring to. If you're talking about the action community, then yes, the main series as a whole is very underrated when it comes to combat, especially with all those jokes about S,S,T spam.
As for reviewers, the games are praised a lot, but at least in part for the wrong reasons.
The lack of music makes some scenes better imo. Just like in dark souls
idk but i wanted to comment this the writers and creators of this game are big brains and in the ending of god of war 1 it is told that kratos looked and was "present (as in supervised or seen)" all wars of mankind therefore kratos will not die
2:20 game name ?
I love this video. Can't wait to see more like it!
1:26 what was this music from?
YOU'VE PLAYED GOW1 THIS MUCH AND YOU DON'T KNOW?
it's the desert soundtrack from god of war 1
One thing I don't like: Kratos sitting on the throne at the end of the game. His neck just looks so weird
No NG+
That would’ve made the experience so much better imo
Common W for my man ExtremeGameplays. Your videos keep getting better and better.
i don't know man, the chalege of hades didn't that hard, it was difficult, but not that hard.
I think the climbing thing in hades thats so hard is like a reference to sisyphus or however you spell that
This game doesn't even let it call itself a 2005 game it should be released in 2015 and to be chosen as the Game of the year
what a great video u impress me video after video zesty but iam a little mad cuz u didnt mention gow 1 main theme (my fav) but other than that it was awesome
