Hm, love the game, don't like the colors. I know the old WAR/Wow debate on models but I have to say this looks more like an alliance npc guard than the god of thunder, I say this because all the other gods are highly Iconic. Where are the ravens, and other things associated with the mythos, dark colors for instance. The hammer is rather meh too, considering it's practically Thors life force entertwined. This character needs to represent Yggdrasil and not the comics |

Originally posted by Astropuyo still looks far better than the movie thor. pfftt.. the movie was even highly succesful, wonder what kind of shit ppl have inside their heads these days. but on topic, to me he looks cool, but not his 1-3 skills. none of them has anything to do with his "god of thunder" title. his ultimate is pretty awesome, but other skills, they are very much not god like. |

Berserker Barrage...? Sounds awfully reminiscent of Wolverine's attack from MvC

this looks like LoL with WASD controls, is that essentially the case?

They really didn't go to the original myths for inspiration. It seems more like they just watched the Avengers movie and based Their Thor on Marvels. Too bad really the Poetic Eddas have some of the best mythical stories to draw from.
Also i was really surprised to see Kali still in the game. i figured they would have changed the name or taken her out altogether, because of the protest from that civil rights group, or whoever they were.
Oh what's messed up, if you google "Thor" the marvel comics link comes up before the Mythological link...lol |
