    An absolute masterpiece of a game, combat is fun, story is pretty good and Kratos is a **** badass. This game is **** amazing and surprisingly well optimized at launch. 10/10

    One of the best videogame experiences for me. It is a truly well-crafted scenery and story with a satisfying and fluid gameplay. Filled with interesting side quests, it took about 40 hours to do everything,except some chests that were left behind. Kudos for the single shot camera. Glad they ported it to PC.

    An extremely forgetful installment in the God of War Franchise. It attempts to do so many things and fails at almost all of them. The one thing I can say I enjoyed thoroughly about the game was the boss segments. The story was extremely dull and left something to be desired. While 100%ing the game on the hardest difficulty, I can absolutely say it's just not for me.

    But it's the story that really pulls you in. Kratos and his 'boi' are constantly chatting but it's never boring or forced.

    In summary: it's amazing what a talented gaming dev team can pull off. I look at crud AAA games like Far Cry 6, Cyberpunk 2077 (bugs), Deathloop and MANY others with disdain now. Why can't everyone make games like Santa Monica Studios? Now I'm sad because every other game is going to seem like garbage until GOW: Ragnarok releases in 2022 (and possibly a lot later for us PC gamers).

    Buy it and love it, my vote for best modern game of all time.    … Expand

    Хорошая история в красивой обертке. Если привык играть в игры с открытым миром, то игра может не пойти (игра жестко коридорного типа).

    Good performing PC port, but not without flaws (on release).

    On PC, God of War plays really well thanks to being a very competent port in many aspects, but this is another port from PlayStation that launches with bad mouse input, much like HZD did in 2020 (Edit: Feb. 12th: Precise Mouse Input has been added, working nicely). The main issue this game presents to the PC user is the    Good performing PC port, but not without flaws (on release).

    On PC, God of War plays really well thanks to being a very competent port in many aspects, but this is another port from PlayStation that launches with bad mouse input, much like HZD did in 2020 (Edit: Feb. 12th: Precise Mouse Input has been added, working nicely).

    The main issue this game presents to the PC user is the terrible Negative Mouse Acceleration it has, because the developers mapped gamepad input to the mouse camera and, in addition to that, it came out with very strong negative acceleration, meaning that very slow movements will quickly increase in speed, and swiping the mouse pretty fast will make the camera completely stop, therefore doing quick flicks will be detrimental to the player.
    This needs to be fixed, because other than that, the game plays pretty well on Keyboard and Mouse and, even with this issue, one can get used to moving the mouse in very controlled motions and constant speed.

    I completed (100%) the game on Hard difficulty, exclusively using Mouse and Keyboard so…even with negative acceleration, any experienced player can adapt to it, for sure, but it needs to be fixed.

    Moving on, the game also launched with some Memory Leak issues, which I personally didn’t encounter, and a couple patches have already been released, addressing some of the issues, and I do expect a few more patches for the mouse input, etc.

    On the Performance side of things, which is crucial to any PC game review, the game runs quite well on my Ryzen 5 3600 and [b]RTX 3060 Ti; At Original (Console) settings, it’s pretty easy to run at 100-120 FPS (120 FPS lock is not completely possible, but close, due to being a little bit CPU bound at times) and, if we want stable 60 FPS or anything in between, higher graphical settings are of course doable, pretty much.

    Ultra Shadow Quality is pretty demanding due to the huge amount of new shadows included in many areas where the original console settings didn’t have any or they were a lot weaker. This setting can impact performance around 20% or more, depending on the area, so be aware of that.
    Lowering Atmospherics, Reflections and Model Quality one notch down from Ultra to High can also provide another decent boost, and paired with DLSS (and DLDSR, which works with DLSS too), we can find a decent resolution and settings combination that looks and performs great, because the Graphics Settings have pretty decent scalability.

    Keybinds are another aspect crucial to PC games and many reviews omit talking about it; well, I don’t, since I’m left handed, in the first place, and that means I will always need to remap the default keybinds.
    In this game, all of the keys I would normally use can be mapped, and only a couple actions are not able to be remapped, like the one bound to “T”, which is used to access Lore we find in game, we have no option to remap that one action, so I ended up mapping it to one of my extra mouse buttons.
    The Arrow keys work for movement, too, which it’s what I use, and another lacking feature here is that there’s no Walk key, so Kratos will always be jogging.

    Other than that, with those issues aside, what remains is a truly amazing video game, with a really nice story and character development; voice acting is phenomenal for the main cast and other characters, such incredible talent and passion put into this game, clearly.
    Sound and music are amazing as well, and the visuals and level design are quite good, and I do love being able to go back to areas I’ve visited and explore more of them, because level design in this game I think it’s pretty well done.

    I love exploration in video games, and this game promotes one of the best ways to do exploration: let the player do it because they feel curious about it; the level design, especially for the Lake of Nine, does exactly that, it did for me at least: I wanted to explore because I was interested. That sentiment was pushed even further thanks to Atreus, which was always so eager to explore, like me. Then with the amazing stories from Mimir, the experience felt absolutely complete for me, it’s an amazing feeling.

    I also loved the subtle hints, even early on, about what was going on, even in the first minutes, there are hints all over the place; the minds who thought about all of this and placed all these hints and clues, visual or in events we see at certain points, are great, such a good job.

    Combat is also pretty snappy and responsive and there are lots of ways to deal with enemies, which is refreshing. I really enjoyed fighting enemies in this game, especially some of the optional bosses, which can get pretty difficult, but they’re so fun to fight.

    This game is pretty good, after such legacy the God of War franchise holds, I like how this game marks the beginning of something new, honors the past very well but, at the same time, leaves us with so much more for the future.    … Expand

    The one-camera shot feels amazing, following always Kratos in the game. It's well added to the combat, which feels nice the change. It's way more challenging and updated to the needs of players nowadays. The visuals are still amazing and in Ultra + 60fps , rtx activated...it just looks incredible.

    I would like to take a moment to speak about the strategy Sony Playstation is following with this kind of releases and why they won't change it despite the success of GoW on Steam. So, they are doing what they should, take their exclusive to the PS and years later to PC, reaching two succesfull releases of one game in two independent years. Very clever.    … Expand

With this new attitude and new Norse mythology era, newcomer PC players like me won't be the lonely stranger in the party.

    Every scene that features Jörmungandr in it... How shall I put it? Were grandly rousing. It was game directing perfection. An example of how to make the player feel little, insignificant and in dismay.

Yıllardır övülen ama ps4'üm olmadığı için bir türlü deneyimleyemediğim bu eseri sonunda oynadım. Harika bir büyüme, baba-oğul, kendini bulma/tanıma hikayesi. Yola kendini ispatlama peşindeki bir oğlan olarak başlayan çocuğumuz, bu süreçte önce kendini kabul ettiriyor, sonra tanrı olduğunu öğrendiğinde kelimenin gerçek anlamıyla tanrı kompleksine girip yoldan çıkma eğilimi gösterirken babası tarafından tekrar disipline ediyor ve hak yolu buluyor. Çocuğun annesine, kendisine ve babasına dair gerçekleri öğrendikçe karakterinin değişmesi, gösterdiği tepkiler şahane. Çocuğumuza karşı soğuk ve otoriter bir baba olarak başladığımız hikaye, yol ve macera boyunca dönüşüme uğruyor. Sonunda onu bir savaşçı ancak daha fazlası bizden daha iyi bir varlık olarak kabul ediyoruz. Onu bir yandan savaşçı ve iyi biri olmak yolunda disipline ederken, bir yandan da kendine güvenmesini sağlıyoruz. Tabii o da bizi dönüştürüyor ve etrafımıza daha duyarlı birisi haline geliyoruz. Hakikaten birbirini pek tanımayan baba-oğul hikayesine şahane bir örnek.

    Oyun mekanik olarak da şahane. Combat'ta sadece 2 silah ve yumrukla yapılabilecek şeyler neredeyse sınırsız. Oyunun kaosun kılıçlarını size verme şekli, o anki atmosfer, o ana kadar hiç çaktırmaması falan efsane. Vuruşlar o kadar iyi görünüp tok duruyor ki gerçekten savaştaymışız gibi hissettiriyor. Vuruş hissi çok iyi yani. Geliştirmeler, skiller, geliştirmelerin sadece istatistiği artırmayıp aynı zamanda oynanışı da etkilemesi falan şahane. Bunun yanında deli gibi bir loot oyunu olmaması da yerinde olmuş.

    Açık dünyada yan görevler ve yapılacak etkinlikler bana az geldi. Dünyası da çok büyük değil zaten. Daha fazla ve hikayeli yan görev barındırıp daha geniş bir dünya olsa oyuna bir puan daha fazla verirdim. Tabii bu dünyası veya görevler sıkıcı ya da kendini tekrar ediyor demek değil. Oyun biraz metroidvania olduğundan, açık dünyayı keşfederken açamadığınız bir kapı ya da geçemediğiniz bir engeli ana hikayede ilerleyip edindiğiniz bir skill ya da eşya ile geçmeniz gerekiyor. Bu da her yeri keşfetmeye çalışmanıza ve sonunda kendinizi ödüllendirilmiş hissetmenize neden oluyor. Yan görevlerin hikayesi eh işte, ana görevlerin hikayesi çok güzel ama o da bana kısa geldi. Oyun tam da yeni ısınıyor dediğim noktada bitti. Ben Baldur'dan daha güçlü birileriyle, örneğin Thor'la kapışacağız ve baş düşmanımız o olacak sanıyordum. Oyunun bittiğine hakikaten çok şaşırdım. Henüz ortasında falanım sanıyordum. Çünkü diyar değiştirilen yerde daha gidilecek tonla yer vardı.

    Valkür'ler dışında pek bir boss savaşı yok. 2 defa Baldur'la 2 defa da Thor'un çocuklarıyla dövüşüyoruz. Ejderhayı saymıyorum bile, vadettiğinden daha azını veriyor. Düşman çeşitliliği fena değil. Ancak dövüş mekanikleri o kadar iyi ki boss'lara ve düşman çeşitliliğine dair tüm bu defektlere rağmen çok keyif alıyorsunuz. Bazen düşmanları öldürürken çıkan bitiriş animasyonları çok güzel, her düşman türü için farklı animasyon var, ancak o tür için sadece bir tane var. Bu da etkileyiciliği azaltıp, tekrar hissine neden oluyor.

    Oyun yan görev yaparken veya açık dünyada gezinirken ana hikayeden kopma problemini çok güzel gidermiş. Yanımızdaki kelle Mimir mitoloji ve oyunun evreni hakkında sürekli hikayeler anlatıp bilgiler vererek sizi bir şekilde oyunun içinde tutuyor.

    Oyunun optimizasyonu çok iyi. 3. parti oyunlar bile konsoldan pc'ye portlanırken özellikle çıkışının ilk bir ayında problem yaşatırken God of War ilk günden itibaren sorunsuz çalışıyor. Ekran kartımdan beklediğimin üstünde bir performans aldım.    … Expand

I've found it very rewarding for an action-adventure title. The story in engrossing: the somewhat robotic warrior of the title has to come to grips with a young son whose ego vacillates among his three aspects. Not an ideal dad, but VERY sincere! The one promising woman in the story is many things, none of which appears on the surface. She certainly promises more than she delivers, but her complexity is an important part of the story. You may wish to play through the first time on easy difficulty just to enjoy the story and learn the mechanics.

    Then raise the difficulty and play a new game, keeping your old armor and attributes. This time, the story will be a lot more clear because you'll know who everybody is from the start, and you know the significance of certain objects and events. You'll also be better able to learn the mechanics as the challenges proliferate. Most importantly, you can pursue ALL the little side adventures the game offers. Just as an example, Lake of the Nine has numerous coves and inlets to explore. As various events occur, the lake level goes down, revealing even more adventures that were previously under water. Pursuing all these side objectives will peak your armor and skills so you can attempt some of the harder boss fights in the game.

    God of War for PC seems a very fine port. I've only found one minor visual problem in sixty hours of play. There's a fine guide, as usual, at https://www.ign.com/wikis/god-of-war-2018.

God of War had always been the one that got away. When I heard it was coming to pc I was beyond excited, and a little surprised when I realized it was never actually spoiled for me. Anyway, combat is great. It's fluid and feels very raw and can vary pretty wildly depending on what kind of move sets you have for your axe. I swear I could sit for hours just throwing my axe and pressing Y to have it fly back to kratos' hand. It's like popping bubble wrap, or peeling off that plastic lining when you buy a new phone. The story is really good as well, I won't spoil it, I will just say I was fully engaged. Sound is perfect, from the sound the axe makes when it is thrown into enemy flesh to the ambient sounds of the world around you. Speaking of the world around you, I used to think RDR2 was the pinnacle of beauty when it came to world design and I suppose it still is when it comes to being in our own reality but I have never seen more beautiful settings than I have in God of War. That photo mode was getting a work out while I was playing. I admit, chances are most people have already played this so what I am saying probably isn't new to anyone, but if you are like me and had to wait or even if you are someone who didn't like the original series (I didn't, sorry hardcore fans I was never into hack and slash games when i was younger) but you wan't a great story and solid gameplay then you gotta try it.

I loved all the dialogues throughout the game and they talk pretty much all the time.

    The only issue I had with this game is the beggning, I think at the start the game is too difficult, even for me, a Souls series fan. You don't have many moves and you have to fight enemies that you don't have yet the tools to deal with them, like enemies that shoot projectiles but you don't have the skill to redirect their projectiles or you have to kill Nightmares but they need the Chaos Blade for easy killing or the Witches needs more arrows that Atreus have. But once you arrive at mid-game these problems simply go away and in the late game, the game becomes easy. BTW, I've played all the game on the 2nd hardest difficulty.

    Another thing that I really think they need to improve is the number of enemies, especially more epics bossies. This game has few bosses throughout the story, I think it is the GOW with the less quantity of epic bossies (Gods, Dragons, mythologic creatures). In the late game we can fight the nine Valkyries, but don't let this number fool you, their moveset is practically identical, they are just a cheap reskin. But the fight against them is really cool, it is a really good late-game challenge. It is a shame there aren't so many more bosses because the combat system is awesome.    … Expand

    One of the more compelling narratives in AAA gaming is marred by a confusingly awful balance pass.

    Normal difficulty is a boring cakewalk where the combat encounters outside of boss fights are annoyances that just slow down the story. But if you want more interesting and aggressive enemies, turning up the difficulty does that... but also drastically inflates their health bars. Even on    One of the more compelling narratives in AAA gaming is marred by a confusingly awful balance pass.

    Normal difficulty is a boring cakewalk where the combat encounters outside of boss fights are annoyances that just slow down the story. But if you want more interesting and aggressive enemies, turning up the difficulty does that... but also drastically inflates their health bars. Even on Hard, a single normal enemy can take upwards of ten hits to kill, and this is a game where you will often fight groups of five or more enemies at a time, in multiple waves. It's the absolute worst form of difficulty inflation, which is so puzzling because they *also* make the enemies smarter and more interesting to fight! Why is this how it is? If the devs really think anyone wants every enemy in the game to be a damage sponge, they should have made a difficulty menu where you can mix and match options, or at least add a couple more difficulty settings so there could be one that's "interesting fights that don't last for ten minutes each".

    Don't even get me started on the hardest difficulty, which for some completely unjustifiable reason *locks you out of changing difficulty*. This is common in older games, but here it's blatantly done deliberately because you can freely switch between the others. I'm pretty sure this was done for no other reason than to stir up hype in the hardcore gaming scene, but if the intent is to reference properly hard games like Dark Souls, they really screwed the pooch, because the balancing here is absolutely atrocious. This mode has the most interesting combat mechanics, stuff you literally can't even see in the other modes, but once again if you want that intense experience you also have to deal with normal enemies who have health bars literally bigger than the first boss on normal.

    If you don't care about gameplay, this is a good story. But I'm not sure it's worth slogging through the combat in any of the available configurations.    … Expand

    The combo system isn't as in depth (or hard to pull off) as in say Devil May Cry games but there is some thought required of what combos and tactics to use for certain enemies. But once you've learned the tactics it isn't too hard on normal if you've played similar games before. I aced the achievements on my first playthrough. I remember the older GoW games on PS3 were way harder, maybe due to the lacking hardware or game design (or I just sucked back then).
    Anyway, I enjoyed the game and the story even though I'm not sure I'll run through it again in NG+. Maybe in a few years. And I do recomend it for fans of the genre as it is an epic title. I also recomend using a controller over K & M.

    As for the PC port, a very good one. Ran locked 100 fps at Ultra and 3440x1440 with very rare hick ups. The bad is as of writing this it does not support exclusive fullscreen, only window mode wich will be an annoyance for those of you wanting to have a different resolution on the desktop and the game. And I had 2-3 crashes due to memory leak wich I fixed on my rig by turning off intel intergrated graphics.

    Still holds up as the game of a generation both narratively and functionally
    UI lends itself more to mouse and keyboard

    It would be blasphemy for me to say that I have not been waiting for this porting since the release of God of War on Sony PlayStation 4, back in 2018, when I first watched its passage on YouTube due to the fact that I am a "PC boyar", I told myself that it was created for PC.

After waiting forIt would be blasphemy for me to say that I have not been waiting for this porting since the release of God of War on Sony PlayStation 4, back in 2018, when I first watched its passage on YouTube due to the fact that I am a "PC boyar", I told myself that it was created for PC. Eagerly reading the days before the release of the PC port, I was looking forward to this game. After waiting for the release, I must admit, at first I was impressed by the graphics, which even at the time of January 2022 is amazing. The combat system on the keyboard and mouse is intuitively simple, complex, intuitive and works perfectly. The only note to the animation of special techniques, because it is continuous and, in some moments of the game (in battles against Valkyries and Wanderers), can play against the player. It is also worth highlighting that despite the colorful fighting and acrobatics of the movements of Kratos and Atreus (the protagonists of the game), it is sufficiently monotonous and can very much, in the early stages of the game, get bored (before the appearance of a second weapon that animates the combat system). The gameplay itself is very similar to an RPG, with its elements of exploring the world, collecting objects, studying locations and the history of the world, which, I must admit, dilutes the attitude to the game extremely much, against the background of the previous parts. From my point of view, this decision does not affect the attitude to the game (yes, you expect from the God of War, actually "war", and "meat", abundantly present in the prequels, but because of the plot and, one might say, age, this decision to slow down the gameplay can be considered successful). As for the plot: it is, without exaggeration, incomparable. A kind of "Road movie", telling about the goal of getting from point "A" to point "B", but skillfully playing on the genre itself and creatively, most importantly very skillfully, throwing up "unexpected turns" and setting the right mood. I would like to mention separately that the developers, with extreme care and reverence, approached the interaction of the plot and the history of the world order of Scandinavian mythology. Of course, there are a number of quite personal questions to plot solutions. Firstly: a very rapid transition of Atreus to uncontrolled behavior (fortunately not for long). Secondly: a rather controversial attitude to the interaction of Freya and Baldur (especially just before the end of the game). Regarding the relationship to secondary and third-rate characters, there are no questions. In many ways, it's fascinating to look at Brock and Sindri's interactions with the protagonists, and Mimir's stories are incredibly fascinating to listen to (it's a pity that such interactions, to a greater extent, take place in a boat). It is also worth noting the presence of several other worlds of the Yggdrasil World Tree. They are very picturesque and, most importantly, different from each other. Alvheim is an insanely beautiful world, but due to my dislike of the local nature and its population, I can't say that it is my favorite. Helheim truly conveys the oppressive atmosphere of the Scandinavian analogue of Hell, and the mood is conveyed very correctly, because in the interval of visiting this world, Kratos travels alone (Mimir does not count, because he has little influence on the development of events). Regarding Muspelheim and Nifelheim: these are optional worlds to visit, which also very skillfully and competently reveal the essence of their being, meaning and history. In many ways, I have a sufficient dislike for Nifelheim, because the implementation of the "ever-changing labyrinth workshop" does not look very skilful (purely the author's opinion), and in combination with the "mortifying fog", it looks quite repulsive. Jotunheim, as the final world, sets incredibly correct and very strong moods before the end of the adventure. From all of the above, it is worth concluding that the game is great, but not without drawbacks. Also, according to the author, in the future sequel, God of War: Ragnarök, the game should focus on mobility in battles, diversity of opponents (because, according to the author, there are not very many of them in this game and, in some aspects, they are extremely similar to each other), epic Boss fights (the right mood is felt exclusively at the final meeting of the protagonists with Baldur), as well as the expansion of weapons ammunition, because for the "God of War" having only two guns is ridiculous. In conclusion, it is worth adding that the author does not take his opinion to the above-described "minuses" to the public. This article is a decision to share your experience and thoughts, because someone will be able to find advantages in these shortcomings. Thank you for your attention.… Expand

    Gameplay (9/10): For me it's an icon for all action adventures - thrilling story with many mechanics, and good end game, without annoying quests - just pure challenge for mind and skills. The only thing I don't like - enemies are same((( but with different magic types(ice, poison, fire) I also liked new axe, I think even more than old chain blades.And it's great, because I don't believe that I like something that good old weapn.

    Stroy (9/10): The end of the story is a bit frustrating, because it's not complete and we need to wait for Ragnarok, but I like the idea how they try to show Cratos more from the human side. On the other hand other characters are not so outstanding and memorable for the story. And actually it feels like they can't do anything to main heroes and are part of the history only for background to move personal dramatic story for Cratos and his son.

    But the gameplay itself is a bit more regular, and maybe even a bit boring at times.
    Excellent game, first play through is a blast

    Good port but boring, hoping for more action but We got half open world filled with very similar looking opponents. Not for me.

    This game is so perfect that I'm almost scared of what is going to happen if GOW Ragnarok doesn't come out as good as it is. Can't even imagine a game better than God of War 2018. Hope the sequel exceeds it.

    Excellent PC port. Runs very well, 80 fps, in high/ultra custom settings at 4k, DLSS Quality on an RTX 3070. The game has a very minor memory leak, that will occassionally cause a quick crash after a couple of hours. So it's an 8/10. It would be a 10/10 if not for that issue. Gameplay is smooth, graphics are gorgeous, story is epic. Despite the small memory leak issue, I'd say pick it upExcellent PC port.

    Superb game. Incredible journey. Worth every penny spent. Literally one of the best games I've ever played and one of the shiniest gem of modern gaming.

    God of War - вершина айсберга эксклюзивов PlayStation.

    Masterpiece of gaming, finally on PC.
    No regrets buying it.
    Did not observe any bug or glitch, which is quite surprising at the moment.

    The story is great.
    The characters are developing.

    Gameplay is neat.

    Graphics are beautiful.

    Full recommendation.

    God of War is more or less a game for everyone who is not afraid of action gameplay and appreciates good narrative and production quality. It's also great to watch, so it can be recommended to extended family members over the series. [Issue#317]

    After more than 55 hours spent playing, I’m still awed by just how great God of War is. This is the result of a clear, determined vision, its separate elements harmonizing almost perfectly to deliver an experience that understands the series’ blood-soaked origins but is also not afraid to push it into a more mature and nuanced direction. Kratos and Atreus’ relationship develops naturally as does their understanding of the foreign land they’re journeying through. The story takes its time, never rushing its satisfying reveals, and making way for a set of surprisingly personal boss fights, while the continuous camera shot used throughout the game is a masterstroke in terms of presentation. All this is built around a snappy and responsive combat system that has more depth than you’re initially led to believe. There are more jaw-dropping surprises I didn’t touch upon simply because it’s best that you experience them for yourself. Looking back, aside from the port’s few performance flaws, my only real complaint has to do with Sony taking this long to bring the game to PC.

    God of War merges all its gameplay elements into one excellent package, dressed in unparalleled direction and amazing storytelling. The scale of the narrative, the divine but always human Kratos, the "boy" who sees everything with childlike enthusiasm, all this offers the player a thrilling story that has at its heart the most human and natural relationship between a parent and his child. Regardless of preference, God of War is a must-see title. Benchmark for each and all its elements and still fresh in 2022.
