GoW: >already at 11 million sales with no signs of stopping and on 1 ONE platform >94 on Metacritic >GOTY >heart-wrenching, beautiful story >deep satisfying combat >gorgeous, industry leading visuals with open exploration
DMC5: >hasn't even surpassed the sales of DmC and sales momentum has plateaued >couldn't even score above 90 on Metacritic >won't be GOTY as it is already forgotten 3 months in >ridicuclous, retarded story filled with obnoxious and unfunny Japanese humor >"lol just hit them" combat on punching bags >drab hallway simulator on the shitty RE engine with tranny Trish & Lady and 5head Vergil
.....Woah.....kratos really is black, doesn't have the face structure of a white man at all kek

Waiting for GOW to hit the Epic store next year. My 4 will confirm that.
Hunter Roberts
GoW is such a good game there's no need for a DLC and just the base game alone gives you a complete gaming experience.
DMC 5 on the other hand... >non-stop begging for Vergil DLC, Trish and Lady DLC >fan's complaints here and there because lacking turbo mod >also begging for co-op mod
Or it just means they love it so much they want more. GoW fans simply can't ask for more character dlcs, seeing as you know GoW's entire history is filled with just playing as one character.

Westerners don't give Japanese games GOTY consideration any more unless it's a first party Nintendo game. Who fucking cares about these awards any more
Brody Brown
imagine if GoW went multiplat (including PC) it would have sales far more greater than the total sales of the DMC Franchise COMBINED (yes, ALL the DMC games, including the overly hated DmC)
Don't you nu gow fans have something to carry really slowly and get emotional? dmc takes a dump over gow and yes I finished gow and can't even watch footage of the game. Also the kids design is shit.
Only to showcase what you can do. In Nu-Gow you can block....you, can spam basic attack, and you can throw axe. It is INFERIOR to previous GoW's and a gimped Dark Souls 100%
Ryan Thomas
NuGow had a very interesting norse concept. Too bad they wasted most of it on fighting braindead variations of troll bosses.
Joseph Baker
Imagine if DMC fans played their game half as much as they repost the same combo videos over and over again, they would probably have more than three people on youtube to watch. actually based
That's what happens when you abandon your core gameplay literally reboot a character (because lets face it this is not Kratos from previous games at all) and recoat yourself as The Last of Us. It gets you easy cred from all the casual journos and streamers, but leaves the actual core gameplay underwhelming.
FFXV will never be anything more than a giant unfinished piece of worthless shit that tanked the goodwill of fans, killed a studio, and lost square massive amounts of money, no matter how many of these threads you make. And Nomura would have made an infinitely better game.
Christian Wilson
Wrong thread, but I totally agree.

Bentley Cruz
All facts which means Yea Forums will seethe itself to death.
Aaron White
People have forgotten DMCV 5 month after release. Its also average DMC3 is still king.
Caleb Johnson
GoW made the mistake that anyone gave a shit about the story while making the already only okay combat actively worse and DMC made the mistake of holding off being able to play Dante until halfway through the game (again) and not having playable Vergil or even a hint of an SE. Really at this point I'm just hoping for NG to make a comeback and somehow be good again even without Itagaki and friends, though I doubt that'd work out either.
Brandon Roberts
ive never palyed a ff game should i start with ffxv no bully
Owen Butler
it's true. it sold faster than DmC, but the sales slows to a crawl after it hits 2 million. Now it's only at 2.1 million.
DMC has better combat but GoW does everything else so much better that it's hard to say DMC5 is better than GoW.
Of course DMC3 is the true godly game of the genre. Shame it was a fluke.
Brayden Clark
I liked GoW but what do you mean by "everything else"? You basically mean the presentation and story right? Because the non-combat gameplay is crap. The puzzles are insultingly simple and the RPG mechanics are half-baked, to put it nicely. I guess the level design is "better" but it's not great, and if you consider forced walking sections as part of the level design (which I would) then it goes down to bad.
William Ramirez
Kratos was never white, retard. He's fucking Greek.
Parker Perez
Say it again dolboeb
Jacob Jackson
>GoW >no black the fanbase as a whole and Kratos himself to a degree is a nigger
Gavin Robinson
What everything else exactly, dumbass? Nothing but combat and content matters and these types of games. Nu-GoW is fucking garbage.
Henry Kelly
God of War was always the action game franchise for people who don't really like action games. Which is why GoW18 could get away with changing as much as it did. There's a ton of overlap between DMC, Ninja Gaiden and Platinum Games fanbases but very little with GoW.
It's like how Mortal Kombat has a very niche appeal in the FGC yet it basically outsells every other Fighting Game.
Michael King
2.1m by the end of March its been 2 months since then
Aaron Martin
I like how everyone already forgot about your game with the threads being as stale as my dick.
Mason Gutierrez
Didnt know that about MK11, but i guess it makes sense. It was a smart idea for NR to focus on singleplayer content then
Evan Hall
They announced the sales figures were 2.1 million on March 31 for the end of their fiscal year. They haven't talked about game sales since then so we might not get accurate figures for awhile.
Also IIRC DmC didn't break 2 million until they released the Definitive Edition, so it's not really apples to apples anyway.
Jace Clark
I mean most action games are, but the point of GoW bait is that it won more awards.
