Silence Your Sidekicks: God of War Mod Stops Chatter
God of War: Ragnarok has captured the hearts of many gamers, but not everyone is thrilled with every aspect of the game. One of the main complaints has been the constant backseat gaming from companions like Atreus and Mimir, who tend to give away puzzle solutions too quickly. Thankfully, a fan-created mod called "Please Shut Up" has come to the rescue, allowing players to enjoy the game without these frequent interruptions.
The Popularity of God of War: Ragnarok
Released in 2022, God of War: Ragnarok quickly became a hit, selling 11 million copies in just three months. It also scored an impressive 94/100 on Metacritic. Despite its success, the game faced criticism for its companions' tendency to offer unwanted hints during puzzles.
The "Please Shut Up" Mod
While Sony introduced an option to "reduce the frequency" of hints on the PC version, many players felt it wasn't enough. Enter the "Please Shut Up" mod, created by a user named Mophead01. This mod removes over 1,500 lines of dialogue, allowing players to solve puzzles without interference.
- Removes hints from companions.
- Eliminates repetitive combat advice.
- Disables Mimir's frequent commentary.
Limitations and Future Updates
Currently, the mod is only available for the PC version, leaving PlayStation players waiting for a similar update. The gaming community hopes that Sony will address these concerns in future updates for the console versions.
The Developer's Response
Santa Monica Studio, the developers behind God of War: Ragnarok, acknowledged the feedback. Matt Sophos, the game's narrative director, admitted that the initial hints appeared too quickly. Players now eagerly await Sony's next steps to enhance the gaming experience.
