    If they were to do this I would want it to be a ground up remake with the new camera style and gameplay.

    That said with that much required I'd rather just see an entirely new game. I don't think that era needs revisiting.

    For the Gna fight absolutely. This was the only fight where I used the poison build. Maybe in a lower difficulty you can zerg down Gna with the berserker build but in GMGoW it still takes too long and with Bifrost she pretty much 1 shots you during the increased damage buff.

    The poison build lowers her stats enough that I can eat 2 unblockable hits and still survive. I'm hoping they'll add the Zeus set again in NG+ so I can do full glass cannon if they turn some of the base game armor sets or relics into enchantments like they did in 2018.

    How long did it take the 2018 game to release NG+?

    Several months unfortunately. Like 3-4 at least.

    Was really hoping they would have it at launch this time.

    I don't think there's anything else to...actually do anymore after platinum since I can't even fight Gna again (with the new drops from her) or the Berserker King.

    Has anyone messed with any of the aim assist or recentering options or is it best just to stay in classic. I did turn on the full pickup items thing.

    That 3 on 1 fight at one of the grave diggers sight is ridiculous. Can’t see shit with attacks because the camera is too close. Also getting stuck in attack animations while they can break free and hit you

    The heavy runic Axe attack you get where you create a storm is the only way to fight these fucking berserkers

    The poison build really is nuts for them.

    I just don't enjoy it because I don't like fighting with fists.

    Eric Williams (game director) has been making the rounds doing interviews. He said on IGN that there is at least one secret that has yet to be discovered.

    Aoe runic spam makes the fight worse because it messes up the AI tagging, its better to keep track of which one has aggro on you than to just spam them and they randomly tag in from offscreen to jump you.

    When I fought the 2 berserker grave I was so under leveled that their basic attacks 1 shot me, beat them by not using any runic attacks and just focused on them 1 at a time and when they tagged out and other jumped in.

    I haven't beat any berserkers yet.
    It would help I'm sure if I paid more attention to my armor and amulets and stuff.

    Also I'm not sure if it happened after the patch or something else but now anytime I go to the shop, I have an exclamation mark on weapons like I have some new option but there's nothing new.
    Hope it's just a glitch and I actually didn't lose out on something.

    The only thing difficult about the berserkers were that they sometimes had more than 1 per fight, and that jackass that summoned adds.

    Valks had a higher difficulty moveset, especially given the limitations of the gearing options in the last game.

    Finished the Path last night. Outstanding game, easy 10/10. GoW and Ragnarök as a pair are probably hands down my #1 choice if I could wipe my memory and play a series for the first time again.

    My only real complaint is the companions, especially Freya, not doing shit in fights. You know how many times she's just sat there and watched me get my ass kicked by GNA?
    I'm giving up on that bitch till I finish most of the other stuff.

    I like they they toned down companion damage, unlike how OP Atreus was in 2018 after u fully upgraded the bow damage and shock arrows where it could just murk entire mobs on its own, felt cheap af.
