Zhang Yi looked at the final game screen with a surprised look on his face, and he was a little dazed.
Regarding the death of the protagonist of Nebula Games, Zhang Yi is actually not surprised at all.
Every year in the games developed by Nebula Games, several protagonists or important characters were killed, and he felt that something was wrong with Mr. Chen.
Arthur Morgan, Soap, Xiaoqiang, and Ghost who are far away in heaven, as well as Ethan, Ezio, and Elizabeth in recent years...
These are all bloody examples, so if Kratos disappears directly, it will not be a big surprise to Zhang Yi.
Moreover, it is actually expected that Kratos's extremely crazy character will eventually lead to destruction.
But now this final shot clearly implies that Kratos is not dead.
This couldn't help but make Zhang Yi feel surprised, but at the same time he was a little bit puzzled.
If you are surprised, it is that Zhang Yi actually didn't like Kratos, a crazy character, at all at first.
After all, judging from what Kratos did at the beginning, he was a complete villain.
But as the game's plot progressed, and after learning about Kratos' life of being toyed by the gods, Zhang Yi felt a little pity for this crazy character.
It can be said that Kratos, the craziest character in the history of games, was born because of the actions of the Olympus gods.
Compared to Kratos, these superior Olympian gods are obviously more hated.
In addition, Kratos, the protagonist controlled by the player, obviously assumes the perspective of a victim, and you will unconsciously develop some affection for this character.
I have to say that playing God of War will indeed give players a depressing feeling until the end.
Because in the third part, Kratos really felt that he had lost his humanity and became a revenge machine, until he finally committed suicide to return the power of hope to the world.
This act of sublimating Kratos made players feel deeply for Kratos.
He also believes that this character can definitely be called one of the most masculine protagonists under Nebula Games and even in the history of games.
Not dead, which is good news though.
But what really makes Zhang Yi wonder is whether there will be a sequel to this game.
After all, this is a very common open ending. It can be seen as Kratos is dead, and it can also be seen as Kratos is not dead.
If it were other game manufacturers, then Zhang Yi thinks it might be the end of it.
After all, killing the protagonist of a series of games is a bit difficult for many game manufacturers, but Nebula Games is different. The number of protagonists killed has long exceeded double digits.
One more Kratos is not too much, and one less Kratos is not too much.
So if you really want to kill Kratos, Zhang Yi feels that Nebula Games will not use this kind of open ending. It is very likely that a knife will be stabbed in, and they will never play tricks with you.
But now it's a trick for the players, and it feels like it's intentional.
But the key question is, if there is a sequel, who will Kratos kill
There don't seem to be many gods left in Olympus. The more famous ones are Aphrodite, the goddess of love, and Athena, the soul of the dead.
At the same time, in "God of War 3", the aesthetics of violence have been raised to a peak. If it goes any further, Zhang Yi feels that it may be counterproductive.
At this level, will there really be a sequel to "God of War"
Zhang Yi expressed doubts about this.
In fact, it is not just Zhang Yi, but all players who have truly fully experienced the "God of War" trilogy have this doubt.
On forums and related communities, while the popularity of "God of War" continues to rise, it is also accompanied by players' discussions about this series of games.
'It feels like Kratos should have died in the end, right? After all, it is the God of War trilogy, and in the final step, all the Greek gods have been slaughtered by Kui Ye, and there is nothing left to kill, right? '
'+1, I still feel that this is just a regular open ending in the end, and there will probably be no sequel. I feel that this game has taken the aesthetics of violence to the extreme, and it will be difficult to surpass it if I try to do it again. '
'That's true. In fact, I feel that God of War 3 has gone a little bit too far in terms of violence. Especially the introduction of the victim's perspective makes me feel the madness of Kratos. If you still want to be violent, As far as aesthetics are concerned, I feel that if there is a fourth part, it will be counterproductive. '
'Not necessarily, right? Although there is no breakthrough in the aesthetics of violence, I think we can still delve deeper into the combat system, and the dark mythological style of God of War is also quite deep. '
'depth? How deep is the game God of War? Isn’t it just about fighting from start to finish? A pure lawn mowing game. '
"Catch a cloud player alive. God of War is a grass-cutting game. Please play it on high difficulty before you say this. And although the plot of God of War is indeed not as deep as Bioshock, the performance effect is quite explosive." '
'That's right, and since the gods of Greek mythology are gone, can't Mr. Kui go visit other places? '
The players on the community forum were very noisy.
Players who think that Master Kui is not dead and there will be a sequel to God of War have their own explanation.
Players who think that Kui Ye is dead and the God of War trilogy is over also have their own reasons.
Of course, there are also many players who take the opportunity to fish in troubled waters and belittle the God of War.
However, these individuals were quickly targeted by players from both parties and were caught and arrested.
Because if you have played "God of War" yourself, you can clearly understand what is so exciting about this game.
The earth-shattering battles with various gods and monsters, coupled with the game's performance effects, can be said to be extremely exciting.
As for the combat system, considering the use of various magics and equipment in different scenarios, as well as how to abuse monsters in various ways, this is the gameplay of God of War.
Just looking at it, it doesn't feel like much, but when you try it yourself, you can understand that this is a completely different gaming experience.
For two consecutive days, players who had played "God of War" online were in a quarrel.
Until Nebula Games and Chen Xu's official blog released a video of less than 30 seconds.
The brief black screen ends, and a thick tree trunk appears in the shot.
There is a golden palm-like mark on the big tree, and next to the big tree, a bald, middle-aged man with red tattoos and a beard is staring at the big tree intently, holding an ax in both hands.
Kratos!
Almost all players recognize it at a glance.
But unlike Kratos, who violently brutalized Hydra and killed Poseidon as soon as he appeared on the scene, the current Kratos looks downcast and old.
Gauze wrapped around his arms that were once bound by the chains of the Blade of Chaos, and he swung the ax in his hand vigorously.
As the trees fell, the screen plunged into darkness.
Countless players looked at this 30-second video and were all stunned.
There is no doubt that this is the answer given by Nebula Games to the topic of their quarrel.
That is, after the "God of War" trilogy, Kratos is not dead, there is really a sequel.
But the real key point is, is this still Kratos
Is this still the extremely crazy Mr. Kui
Why is Kratos getting so old
Countless questions and curiosity arose in the minds of countless players.
