    Amazing game!
    Beautiful adventure with very good graphism. A masterpiece => 10/10
    Une magnifique aventure ! Avec de superbe graphisme et un bon portage sur PC. L'histoire est sympa à suivre, et les quêtes principales ou secondaires sont toutes intéressantes. L'exploration est largement récompensée. Une belle réussite et surtout un coup de cœur auquel je ne m'attendais pas du tout !

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.

    Enjoy!

    Happy it got ported to PC, and a broader audience is able to enjoy it. The only real addition is the ultra wide mode, which makes it look like a movie.

    About the game itself, it's visually stunning storytelling with great combat mechanics which can be quite challenging at the hardest difficulty. It's one of those few games that go up to 11.

    Graphics are incredible, especially for a game from 2018. Outstanding animations and highly detailed textures.

    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.

    Oh.......my........god.......of war. Real quick let me just say this game is an absolute masterpiece in my humble opinion.

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. Just try it for your own sake. Expand

    Game has some seriously beautiful aspects. Graphics are great. Story is great. At times I felt serious emotion. Combat is repetitive and the character UI is really confusing though. Higher difficulties often feel artificially challenging due to enemies just having way too much health.

The port is perfect, the controlls feel comfortable with mouse and keyboard or with controller (XBOX controller is integrated too in case you have one) or you can play with the PS4 controller too of course.
    In terms of history, sound, gameplay, etc... the game is the same of the 2018 PS4 version, so, it's absolutely beautiful and perfect. I don't know you can't really expect less than an awesome grade.
    I would recommend buying it on a "third-party" store e.g. Instant Gaming, Eneba, Gamivo, etc. as 50€ seems like too much for me for a 4 years old game and these stores are selling it for 30€ but it's Sony "re-releasing" a game, you can't really expect it to be cheap. At least they're not as expensive as Nintendo.

    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).

    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.

    There are so many fantastic moments in this game. Not one moment are you getting tired of the chemistry between Kratos and Atreus, or their mission. The gameplay is seamless and aggressive with no setbacks in any sort of way. While the bosses may become repetitive, they are still a welcome to battle because it's so intense.

    There aren't many games like God of War that leave an impression on me, but this one is special. Perfect from start to finish.

    If you haven't played this game, i truly recommend you to play through it because i can assure you, if you enjoy an epic storyline with amazing action packed moments whilst also having some slower character developing and emotional moments for you to feel for the characters, then this game is gonna grab you from the get go.
    And if you have played through this one, i also advise you to playthrough the old ones, they're different and more focused on action packed content than an immersive story but they also are really great games in their own with a great story aswell.

    I passed this wonderful game on ps4, I just pay another debt and put 10 points on the PC version, a well-optimized legend that should not be missed. This product matches its price in all respects.

    This game is a triumph on all fronts.

    I had so much fun. The story was moving, and at some points taught this old man how to be a better father. The Norse Mythology was handled in a new and respectful way. The world was just a joy to explore, with beautiful vistas, some terrifying hellscapes. The characters and interaction was excellent. You do not need to have played the first

    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.

    One of the best story driven games I have ever played. The gameplay is buttery smooth and left nothing desired for me. Rarely have I felt more attached to game characters than with Atreus and Kratos. I went the full length and got all achievements on Steam, which I rarely ever do. I really hope Sony decides to publish Ragnarök in the near future.

There are many difficult enemies after you complete the story and when you are done with the game you can restart with New Game + which adds a lot of new things to the table like new armor, runes, abilities and many more. Not to forget the difficulty of the enemies will be increased in the New Game + mode. Even though there are no DLCs for the game which is kind of sad but that does stop you from having fun after you have finished the game. Overall I would like to say that the game is amazing and the story adds on the lore of all the previous games. There are some plot holes which are still unanswered or explained by the story writers/developers of the game but I hope they answer those things when the new GOD of WAR game is released which is GOW Ragnarök.

De ahí que los Souls sean tan buenos, los enemigos no son esponjas y todo depende de tu habilidad, el nivel existe pero tiene 0 importancia en las batallas.

    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.
