  Honestly, Zachtronics really outdid themselves with this one.

  &quot;The business itself now mirrors the Hollywood machine.&quot;<br><br>That... that comment cut deep for some reason. And it hurts.

  imagine if boy only learns what you teach him, and then he becomes cold hearted and uncaring cause you don&apos;t do the sidequests.

  fuck man your point about how they should have used kratos&apos; strength as a way to make fun of other games and reduce tedium in certain parts was brilliant and i can&apos;t believe i haven&apos;t heard anyone bring that up before

  the way the boy flies at kratos whenever they&apos;re about to climb a wall together is hilarious it looks like he&apos;s being pulled by a magnet

  Why MatthewMatosis is currently one of the greats in video game criticism:<br><br>1. Doesn&apos;t waste time on going in a hissy fit about other people&apos;s opinions on the game or talking about his own expectations.<br>2. Regards the merits AND flaws of a game to bring a balanced overview.<br>3. Analyses extensively so the eventual judgement doesn&apos;t come out of nowhere and is understandable.<br>4. His analysis, although extensive, is still <b>concise</b><br>5. I&apos;m gay for his voi- uuuh I mean communicates in a clear voice :)

  As a AAA dev myself (And an environment artist for most of my 22 years) I find this video incredibly sobering. &nbsp;And important. &nbsp;I haven&apos;t played GoW yet myself, but this piece is clearly an industry critique first and foremost. Great work! &nbsp;I&apos;m sharing with all my coworkers.

  The fact that Sony Santa Monica and Corey Barlog actually listened to this makes me extremely hopeful for the future of this series.

  &quot;No matter what topic I was discussing, I would never have referred to Norse God as an example of anything, because everything it does is better represented elsewhere.&quot; -The entire video&apos;s great point. Excellent summation.

  The “petty complaint” about the loading times on PS5 was spot on lmao

  Matthew is in a class of his own when it comes to this stuff. He was years ahead on Zelda, God of War, and Elden Ring before everybody else started to catch on.
