Elden Ring vs God of War Ragnarok - Game of the Year

Submitted by Novitec96 t3_z86uqy in gaming

As always I never want to make a judgment call when it comes to pivitol title's such as these... my opinion comes to the conclusion that Elden Ring Comes out on top.

Reason for this were some qualms I had with Ragnarok's Story.

  • I loved the story beats
  • I loved every character (especially Thor's - albiet somewhat of a tragedy)
  • I've always had some minor issues with the newer entries combat for the main reason that 1-3 were top notch

My Qualms

  • Story pacing ... especially in the 3rd act
  • Combat (although improved still lacked some sort.
  • Did not feel as coheisive as Elden Ring imo

Other than those minor gripes, I enjoyed myself, especially freya's side quest!

What do you think?

Elden Ring, and I don't think it's even close personally

Elden ring. I just finished GoW last night. Felt like Game of Thrones all over. All the build up for it to be over so quickly.

I'd predict Elden Ring, particularly The Game Awards. That platform worships Miyazaki and Elden Ring has made the biggest cultural splash of his recent games (though I personally think Bloodborne is considerably superior).

I think GOW Ragnarok is going to lose some votes for being such a close continuation of an arguably better game (which isn't fair, but 2018 GOW happens to be widely considered at least a top 10 all-timer. Elden Ring is a fresh effort).
