The game takes the inhumane view against God Eaters to a whole different level, as the protagonists continue to be shackled and thrown in a cell every day after doing dangerous missions for the Port that they work for. God Eater 3 continues that tradition with a narrative that focuses on several hard-luck protagonists who grew up in prison.
GOD OF WAR 3 HLTB SERIES
But at least God Eater games had a story, which the series deserves props for. We can debate whether the stories were actually good. One thing I’ve always thought God Eater also did better than Monster Hunter traditionally was storytelling. The weapon and attack animations, meanwhile, are over-the-top in a good way, not shying on the use of all sorts of effects to fill the screen. While its environs are starting to look a bit dated, the models for its characters and monsters still look good while exuding that unique God Eater style. That being said, God Eater 3 still looks great.
GOD OF WAR 3 HLTB PC
The return of Monster Hunter on consoles as well as the arrival of its mainline game on PC has since changed the graphics equation. And while I also love Monster Hunter’s more “realistic” style, I thought God Eater gained the upper hand in visuals when the Monster Hunter series moved to 3DS. I especially loved the lion-style Aragami monsters of the game, which I thought looked incredible, but its monster designs overall have this wondrous ethereal look to them. The monster designs also lean more toward fantasy, which I thought was a nice way to set it apart. Just do a Google image search of Hilda Henriquez if you don’t understand what I mean. I’m talking anime eyes and hair as well as anime, um, physics. Like Phantasy Star, the visuals in God Eater adopt an anime style but Bandai Namco’s game takes it to the next level. It basically feels like a combination of Phantasy Star and Monster Hunter. I also like how God Eater combines the feel of two of my favorite action games. Personally, I consider a 3.5 out of 5 an above average game. I’ve given the last couple, including God Eater 2 Rage Burst the equivalent of a 7 out of 10 (3.5 out of 5) back when I was using a 5-point score system instead of the 10-point system I use now. Admittedly, I’ve scored God Eater the lowest out of all these monster hunting games. That’s the same score I gave Monster Hunter Generations Ultimate. That being said, I’m not averse to playing so-called Monster Hunter “clones.” I actually gave Toukiden 2 an 8.5 out of 10. I even named Monster Hunter World as my 2018 Game of the Year, although it is my first time picking a game from the series as my GOTY (that’s how much of a game-changer World was).
GOD OF WAR 3 HLTB FULL
Now in the interest of full disclosure, people who follow me regularly know that I absolutely love Monster Hunter. It’s easier to pick up but still provides plenty of nuances that you can learn the more you play it. God Eater, on the other hand, is like skiing. Monster Hunter is like the former, a bit tougher to learn at first due to its unnatural positioning but an incredible hoot once you get the hang of it. It’s like the difference between snowboarding and skiing. Both are so different in their approach to the genre that I can legitimately see people liking one much more than the other. As someone who can appreciate both games for what they are, I think that’s a mistake.
