God of War III: Remastered

March 12, 2023 | Reading time: ~1 minute

God of War 3 Remastered is the last of the traditional God of War games before the 2018 reboot, and it's a great send-off. GoW 3 retains the series frantic hack-and-slash gameplay and supplements it with epic boss battles. I'll never forget the opening of this game, travelling across Gaia in the...

Priest of Lies review

About

My name's Mike, and this is the Lore Depository - my spot online where I can write out my thoughts on games, books, tech, movies, and anything else I find interesting.

My biggest project is my Game Library Project. I have a ton of games collected throughout the years, and have barely played any of them. Check out the linked post to learn more about the project, and click here to be taken to the category page where you can see all my posts for the project.

Another project I'm working on is my Pokemon Living Dex Challenge, where I try to obtain one of each available Pokemon and transfer them into Pokemon Home.

Yet another project I'm working on is my Old School RuneScape "Completionist" Quest, where I'm attempting to max out all skills and see everything the game has to offer as a completely new player.

Other content comes mainly in 3 forms:
• Reviews, where I post longer-form review writeups
• Thoughts, short & quick first impressions posts
• Guides, detailed how-tos and walkthroughs
