God Of War vs Outer Wilds

That said, God of War’s story was written with sequels in mind; in the grand scheme of things, Kratos and Atreus's adventure is merely a prologue for what’s to come. There are a handful of the major mythical players present in God of War, with the rest only mentioned in passing. God of War still has a satisfying story arc, and both protagonists grow considerably by journey’s end. I had hoped to see more of the Norse pantheon and of Ragnarök, but that isn’t the focus of this story

This game's gonna get slept on compared to the other stuff announced, but Outer Wilds is legit amazing. It's one of those "go in blind and enjoy the ride" kind of games. Actually kinda mad they talked about the >!22 minute time limit and the sun going supernova, since that's kind of the first big surprise of the game!< but whatever not a big deal. There's an excellent story to uncover in this game, and I still think about it months later

Returning back to their home and failing to pass his fathers test a stranger mysteriously turns up at their doorstep revealing he is aware of Kratos's past and demands he turns over something that had been promised to him. After dealing with the stranger in familiar Kratos fashion, Kratos decides to go through with his mates last request earlier than he had wanted to, despite feeling his son was not completely ready for journey, leaves their home and travels to Midgard to complete his mates request and keep his son safe from this new threat. During the journey Kratos is forced to reconcile his past while trying to insure not to pass on the same mistakes to his son. Game Mechanics: As mentioned in the description the Game Mechanics of God Of War have been COMPLETELY re-invented from literally the ground up

Outer Wilds has both excellent spaceflight and jetpack-based on-foot gameplay. Just wonderful movement all-round, they struck a perfect balance between arcade and real-world physics.

Outer Wilds. Not the most disappointed per se, but the biggest difference in my experience versus how people talked about it. The flying controls were super frustrating, and although I loved the "time loop" concept, constantly having to retrace my steps over and over again got pretty annoying. This is mostly a personal taste thing though, as I don't tend to enjoy games where the onus of exploring and discovery is on me as a player
