      Nostalgia sells and people who have played those games when they were young are now working age so they have money to spend.

      Also the first game is over 20 years old so there are complete generation of people who havent played the original and getting more people intrested on the IP is good for the next new GoW game.

      You may groan, but i 100% see why companies are doing this. And personally i will play these and im glad they are being made. Its not like they are milking the same game like The Last of us remake was or how ever many different releases Skyrim has had.

      Why take a risk on new IPs when you can milk existing ones for guaranteed profits? That’s just basic capitalism. Speaking of, I wonder if we’re due for another Last Of Us remake soon.

        Slog through most of it, and underdelivered for what Ragnarök the myth is. Also apparently it must’ve been a trilogy, the Norse saga of GoW, but someone decided for cramming two games into one.

          The decition was not completelly unreasonable. It took 5 years to make the GoW2018 and another 5 for the Ragnarok. At some point during the second game the director started to think if they really want to spend 15 years of their life by making the trilogy so they decited to jam the two last games in to one.

          I dont like how the game ended up, but i honestly understand why they cut the third game.

    Yessss, GoW3 is the best western action game to date. No competition.

    This better make its way to PC eventually.
