[QUOTE="Admin, post: 64997, member: 1"] [URL='https://www.ign.com/games/god-of-war-ragnarok']God of War Ragnarok[/URL] is now available on PC and, while Sony itself released an option to tone down puzzle hints from companions, one fan has released the Please Shut Up mod to cut them altogether. Though 2022's God of War Ragnarok was incredibly well received, [URL='https://www.ign.com/articles/god-of-war-ragnarok-reaches-11-million-units-sold-milestone']selling a whopping 11 million copies in less than three months[/URL] and [URL='https://www.ign.com/articles/god-of-war-ragnarok-review']earning a 10/10 in IGN's review[/URL], one gripe players had was with companions throwing out puzzle solutions before players had a chance to solve them themselves. Sony took action almost two years later by releasing a feature that would "reduce the frequency" of these hints, [URL='https://www.ign.com/articles/god-of-war-ragnarok-finally-adding-option-to-tone-down-puzzle-hints-but-only-on-pc-for-now']but this is only available in the PC version for now[/URL]. NexusMods user [URL='https://www.nexusmods.com/godofwarragnarok/mods/66']Mophead01[/URL] said these changes did "little to resolve the problem," however, so made the Please Shut Up mod to remove more than 1,500 lines of dialogue. "Tired of companions telling you things you already know?," asks Mophead01. "Tired of the game treating you like a child if you don't instantly solve every puzzle? This mod removes over 1,500 pointless, patronising voice lines from the game." This includes the puzzle hints alongside companions telling the player to Shield Strike, companions reminding the player to block if they get hit, Mimir reacting if the player is hit with fire, frost, or bifrost, and more. The mod therefore goes the extra mile for those tired of the snippets of dialogue who weren't satisfied with Sony's changes. PlayStation players don't have either option at the moment, as Sony still hasn't released the update for console even two weeks later. Developer [URL='https://www.ign.com/articles/god-of-war-ragnarok-devs-didnt-realise-that-allies-spoiling-puzzles-would-annoy-players']Sony Santa Monica made clear it was aware of this frustration in February 2023[/URL], with narrative director Matt Sophos saying "the timing for the first hint was too aggressive and should have had a much longer countdown timer before something comes up."
