Gaethje was born to fight.

A good friend of mine is best friends with Gaethje (was in his wedding) and grew up fighting with him fighting at the same gym. Said he is a quiet little nerdy dude until he puts the gloves on, then he totally transforms. Love it

$400M budget for this :rotflmao:

Even if it wasn't on Gamepass, this had a 0% chance of touching that. With Gamepass and no PS5, this will be lucky to break 4M units sold

Why would you only add 2.4mL of BAC to a 29mg vial? Add 2.9mL

Because a reasonable person would expect to be getting 24mg when they purchase 24mg vials :lol:

Ok, lets say a buyer sees this and says "ok it's actually 29mg, let me do 2.9ml." Suppose they got a batch produced several months after the 4 from your testing. What if this new batch has variance in the other direction and its 20mg? Or less? Crazily underdosed.

Take a look at their Finnrick page LINK. People send in their vials to get tested and the results are published for all to see.

They tested one 24mg vial at 39.4mg. Another at 46.4. Out of 31 tested 24mg vials, only 4 came within 0.5mg of 24. :lol:


It's certainly pure, at least. Lots of 99.8s and 99.9s

Nah dude, carson just explained how not liking the game makes you so much smarter than everyone that enjoyed it.

I specifically said it's mechanically sound and highly polished. That other comment was just in regards to the writing/narrative.

It's like ordering a steak well done - it's ok to like the story and the writing, but it's still bad :lol:

Marino and it's not even up for discussion

In 2018, I was waiting anxiously for every single cutscene and dialogue exchange because I just couldnt wait to see what great lines were coming next

In Ragnarok, it was the opposite. I'm having to listen to this talking frickin squirrel endlessly quip like something out of Guardians of the Galaxy. When you see that the Borderlands 2 writer was one of the writing leads, it all makes sense. There's nothing godly or epic about the way the characters speak, just non-stop one liners. The only remotely well-written scenes were Mimir's boat stories

Then you have:

- The utterly pointless Tyr twist
- The utterly pointless mask mcguffin
- Freya changing her mind in 5 seconds
- Ragnarok lasting 45min and consisting of a corridor fight sequence against regular Einerjar mooks while all the cool shite happens in the background
- Never find out who blew the horn (let me guess, it's gonna be Faye now)
- Freya's ominous Bridge of the Damned warning and Kratos' death prophecy in 2018 are utterly pointless and disregarded
- Garbage pacing (the dogshit Ironwood section is longer than Ragnarok itself)


There's not a single bold narrative choice in the game's entirety. You could really feel the spots where they compressed things when they decided to go from 3 games to 2, like when the big dude in Vanaheim jumps off the flying boat to sacrifice himself. They do this slow closeup on him brooding with the music and it's this whole ridiculous ordeal, meanwhile you're thinking "I just met this guy 5 minutes ago" :lol: It's clear he was going to be much more fleshed out originally.

In God of War 2, Kratos has to murder the sisters of fate to change his fate. In this, they're like "prophecy doesnt define us, it doesnt matter." Pretty big microcosm of where things went wrong.

Almost every fan theory that was made between 2018 and Ragnarok is better than what we actually got.


Like I said, it's not a bad game. It's polished, mechanically sound, has good performances, etc. But it could've been so much more

Anyone who thinks Ragnarok was satisfying or well-written is suffering cognitive dissonance or they just don't have a fundamental understanding of what good writing is. It's as simple as that

Ragnarok was well-made, highly polished, and had the Sony Spectacle moments that people eat up. Games like that will always review and sell well just because most of what we get from AAA these days is shite

Ragnarok is Top 3 biggest gaming disappointments of my life. Cory would never admit it, but he has to be sick to his stomach with how the story played out and how ignored or brushed aside all the shite he so deftly set up in 2018.

but just getting to see and fight in a Sera city getting torn apart by the locust invasion has an appeal.

Yeah im in for this alone. I gave negative fricks about the 4 and 5 stories, glad they wised up and gave us a compelling narrative again
