Game really difficult and unfair

[InfeagleAhaan]

Alright this game is just too difficult I swear to god the challenges of Olympus are so annoying and enemies hit you faster than the flash runs and come on the bare hands challenge was utter bs like come on man and the controls are easy thankfully but this game made me rage a lot and titan is still fine and not ragey unlike these 7 challenges which are definitely the most difficult out of all 3 main trilogy games and I managed to get the platinum trophy in this game and there is no way in hell I am doing it using ps now on the ps3 version at least not now I didn't complete other 2 games challenges and I regret that because don't straight away do the challenges in this first go do 1 or 2 challenges and then the experience should be better. That's all thanks to everyone who read this.

Not sure the story-line game is hard but the challenges are an annoyance ? like every single one of them, from every game in the franchise. There's just no other way around it tho.

your right about challenges but story also had a few challenging parts like the labyrinth

Not to be a dickhead, but a little grammar goes a long way and your post could really benefit from some. Even the occasional period or comma would go a long way to making it more readable and make you easier to understand.

 

This game can be tough at points, but I wouldn’t say it’s unfair. It’s actually pretty well balanced, some encounters will just require a bit of practice or experimenting with different strategies before you find a way to succeed. I feel your pain when it comes to the challenges, but that is pretty standard for this series tbh. If you think the Challenges of Olympus are frustrating, you should stay far away from the other entries, particularly the very first game where you can’t even save your progress between challenges. ?

Personally I never really struggled with any of the  God of War games challenges. Sure some are tougher than others but compared to say the Dunwall City Trials in Dishonored or the Batman Arkham combat challenges they are a breeze, to me at least.

 

Now, the cerberus miniboss fight before the 3 judges - that has always been a pain in my butt. Second only to fighting Zues in the 2D sections of the boss fight.

Sorry about my grammar I am not fluent at english

I don't remember the 3rd God Of War challenges being all that difficult. the first God Of War though they were tough, I still haven't done them even today.

That mini-boss was the most annoying and frustrating part of God of War III to me. lmao Especially on the harder difficulties, dear lord...

The challenges from original GOW are worst, especially as someone said because you cannot save.

The challenges aren't too hard, I got a little pissed at some, but it wasn't brutal. God Of War 1, however, was a pain in my backside, as it took me two days to conquer the BS that is Challenge 10.

I think in some of the challenges you are on a pedestal and can hang off the edge for most of them and slice enemies at their feet for safety, although to be fair, when I did GOW3 it was years ago, so my memory of each challenge is getting old now

You can practically stun lock him by spamming Nemean Cestus and dodging every now and then, he never managed to even hit me and I suck at GoW. A fully upgraded one and he'll go down pretty quick. And then whenever you get crowded by other enemies, just use the L1+Square attack to push them away. Pretty much the strategy I used through the whole Titan playthrough and it made it pretty easy for the most part. 

 

I found the Hades boss fight to be the most difficult aside from Zeus. Just because it's early in the game in you're pretty underpowered then. No checkpoints during any of his phases either and he has some powerful attacks that can nearly one-shot you. You can't afford to take many hits early otherwise you'll stand no chance in his last phase. 

 

Zeus is easily the most frustrating fight though. The entire first phase in 2D is just bullshit. One mistimed parry and he takes half your health. It seems like with every GoW game, you can get through the whole game no problem without hardly ever using parry and then there's always that one fight that forces you to use it and master it.
