    Although an improvement in many ways from its predecessor, namely new enemies, lots of newly added boss fights and quests that make the game quite rich and worth exploring, I still have to say that this game was a big disappoint in terms of the Aesir, Vanir and Ragnarok plot.

    Both Thor and Odin felt super inconsequential despite their hype, we barelly got to see anything special from the Aesir, Asgard as a realm was also super disappointing there is absolutely nothing new there and when Odin and Thor were defeated it felt weightless and unmoving.

    Fights like Jormungadr vs Thor we didn't even get to see anything, so incredibly underwhelming...

    All that aside this is still a good game to play, just don't get your hopes up from big names and popular cultural references such as a Ragnarok, this game lore wise leaves much to crave for and none of the main bosses are all that challenging even though they look pretty good animation wise.

    Due to how underwhelming this game was I'm never getting hyped for this series again, but sure I'll keep playing it.    … Expand

    This is a perfect example of what I think a sequel should be. They built upon an already amazing game with both refined and new gameplay mechanics while also continuing to tell a compelling. I couldn’t recommend this game more, but I do strongly suggest playing 2018 first.

    This seems like the result of taking an uninspired design and adding unlimited budget. You get something that is simultaneously so polished and yet so bland. I've never seen anything like it.

You get something that is simultaneously so polished and yet so bland. I've never seen anything like it.

    The story is...great overall but boring the majority of the time. There's a compelling cut scene where the main character is questioning whether his responsibilities as a father will take him back to an identity he wished to leave behind, then 5 minutes later your sidekick is shouting at you that they found the magical macguffin of "Take Us To The Next Level." It felt like the needs of the story and the needs of the game were pushing and pulling on each other, fighting for dominance.

    The combat feels worse to control and less inspired in a post-Sekiro world. The game confidently ramps the difficulty up as if it has the tightness of a top tier action game and yet it doesn't. Baffling flaws persist from GoW 2018. You don't regenerate health between battles but dying heals you to full with generous checkpoints. This resulted in me dying in 1 hit at the beginning of most encounters and then starting with full health and winning on my next attempt only to rinse and repeat the next encounter. So basically I get a free loading screen at the beginning of every encounter. Yay!

    The combat feels sloppy four years later. Hitboxes and staggering feel inconsistent, and the intricacies of the rpg mechanics are both poorly explained and essential to your success at middle difficulties. The camera is too close to you and that makes it hard to get a read on the battles. You also have little control over the direction you attack with melee attacks being locked into where you're pointing with the right stick. This makes it difficult to address foes who surround you. It feels like you have more weapons than you need. They don't seem to occupy a unique niche and they're repetitive and unsatisfying to use. It's pretty much the same combat as 2018 with more breadth but few improvements to core design.

    The interface is awful(ly pretty). The map looks like a work of art and yet is largely unintuitive to read. The compass is a disaster. All your upgrade options are scattered willy nilly across separate tabs like someone sprayed a deck of cards across a table. And it all looks and feels immaculate like they paid a million dollars for every one of those bewildering screens.

    The gameplay mostly consists of "find the thingy" where you look around these stunning environments where you can't really interact with stuff. You do non-puzzles (aka "nuzzles") where the solution is immediately clear 95% of the time. The fights are repetitive slogs with the same bombastic moves with crazy eye popping animations. I couldn't wait til the next cutscene where I could stop dealing with the chores. It's all busy work in a massive and jaw-droppingly beautiful world of blandness.

    That's what's so weird about it. You can feel the money coming off the screen when you play. The acting, direction, sound, animation, it all feels like Benjamins wafting across your skin. But it feels so joyless and sometimes downright frustrating in its mediocrity. It's all the same problems with 2018 after 4 years and you know they had the money to do something about it. I guess I can't deny that a beautiful pig is still better than an ugly pig, but I was left wondering why they didn't use that money to address obvious issues from four years ago.    … Expand

    Trouble is that as a mature gamer, I'm finding the game painfully childish at times. Even more so than Uncharted games. And, frankly, some of the slower narrative sequences, where you just follow path for hours while listening to story reveals, are plain boring. Yes, I got bored in a Naughty Dog game, and not just once.
    On top of that there is way too much of the 'save the environment and free endangered species', and 'war is bad' -stuff in the game. Morality sermons, you know. Way too much. I mean let us have some fun now and then, please!
    And finally, the game borrows heavily from other sources; the prophet girl is way too similar to Luna Lovegood, and Atreus way too similar to Link in Twilight Princess (once you see the wolf stuff, you understand..). So it feels least original of ND games.
    So, while the game is polished and impressive to look at, even on last gen consoles, these irritating things do lower the score to 7 on my books. If it had been more adult and intelligent, and less preachy, it would have received 10.    … Expand

    The Story is excellently paced but lacks some detail and explanation about specific events (It left some Plot holes), the Combat and gameplay are reminiscent of GOW 2018 with more combat flow and tactical combat mechanics.

    The Characters are well-written, and the Environments and realms are expansive and impressive graphically while maintaining the linear open space the previous game is known for.

    The Music is incredibly satisfying which reminds me of Huge, Epic and Cinematic Soundtracks that Films are known for. This game makes the first game look like a DLC and that is a good thing but I feel there is a lack of something that I can't really point my finger towards but it has to do with the later parts of the game.

    I feel that it's generic and safe, it doesn't try to do something ultimately Unique like the previous games in the series. It's understandable where they want to go with the franchise and the characters but I expected there to be something more, something unexpected at the end, but as I mentioned before the story of the game plays it safe.

    On to ratings:
    Story 9/10
    Gameplay 8/10
    Visuals 9/10
    Music 10/10
    Polish and Quality 9/10

    I was going to give this game 10/10 but there are minor flaws in the game that hinder the experience, in my opinion, don't get me wrong I enjoyed this game very much but I think it is safer to say that this is a 9/10 it's close to being perfect, but it misses some elements that the previous titles had that made it have a lasting personality.

    At the writing of this review, I thought of this being an 8/10 or even a 7 but I have to consider that this is not its own game with its own personality this is a continuation of the story of 2018 and is frankly a difficult game to rate, so I had to consider the previous title as a base.

    2018 is an 8/10 for me, this game is better in almost all respects so hence a 9/10.
    I highly recommend playing GOW 3, 2018 and then Ragnarok.

    As for when you should buy it, either now or when it goes on a quick sale even if it's $2 or $5 off it's worth it. As for Performance it locked to 1080p 30fps, with no visible drops in fps whatsoever, there are some texture loading problems you'll notice when playing the first hours of the game and some character models pop in before combat but these are quickly solved, I experienced no crashes and only one time where the game needed to load for 2 seconds. Other than that the game is well-optimized.

    I didn't expect Ragnarok with its sheer size to run well on my standard 9+ years old PS4 it really shows how much care was taken by Santa Monica studios and what they can do with 4 years on a decade-old console.

    I hope to see this Level of Quality, Story Telling, Gameplay, Optimization and Care spread to all Developers and Publishers, gaming is only going to get bigger and the GOW Franchise has set another standard for AAA gaming.    … Expand

    Only a few hours into this game, and it is absolutely amazing, core gameplay is very similar, but that's how a sequel often is, can't knock it for that, story is fantastic so far, runs quite well on ps4 as well, PS5 would be preferable of course, but it's certainly playable on 4.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Where to begin.
    I have played and beaten 100% of each GoW games on the hardest difficulties. This game has made me quit gaming. It ruined the franchise and Santa Monica studios should retire and be sterilized so they don't infect the world with more trash. It's a downgrade from 2018. It's an elden ring wannabe. Filled with lazy designed boss fights, subpar main quest bosses, and a clearly rushed end.
    Riddled with artifical difficultly. The camera work should have stayed like the originals. This over the shoulder nonsense keeps you from keeping track of every enemy and projectile. The little arrows that warn you don't give any indication of the distance or speed at which travels.
    In the OG games the camera allowed more management.
    Generous auto tracking from enemies. Poor and very little combos. Just like 2018.

    Great graphics and story. Beautiful. I will give devs that.
    But the gameplay, level and boss design, is atrocious. Borderline a walking and traveling simulator. How do you prop up a fight with heimdall and have him be quite easy to beat. Why do optional fights take 3x as long as the main ones?
    4 years of wait is for a Thor and Odin fight and it's the simplest of fights. Obviously rushed and poorly designed. was awfully sad to have optional bosses be better than the main ones.
    The maven gave me more trouble..
    Valks over berserkers. That fight where you fight those 3 berserker sisters is by far the worst designed boss fight of the last 10 years. If you cant come up with something other than toss in more enemies, you shouldn't be making games. There's 40 year DnD campaigns with more flair and design and creativity.
    Borderline 3/4 of any boss fight has the bosses main ability to have adds. No cool moves no nothing. Just spam ground unblockables and summon auto target suicide bombers. If you can't make a boss tough without adding additional enemies or summons. It's a bad boss design. Simple as that I am so disappointed. I loved the 2018 game despite the downgrade of combat combos and the camera play. I was hoping they would fix the combos atleast.
    But this is the last game I will ever buy.
    No story simulator is worth 70 dollars.

    The amount of times you'll get killed by **** you can't see at all is insane.
    Do not buy. Do not buy. The story does make up for extremely bad gameplay
    Critics are just paid industry plants. Anyone who actually think this game is above 5/10 needs to be sterilized so they can't spread stupidity either.

    While I enjoyed God of War: Ragnarok, it isn't as good as the 2018 game. While the first game of the Norse saga had a relatable premise, even as our protagonists were travelling through different worlds and were dealing with Gods.

While the first game of the Norse saga had a relatable premise, even as our protagonists were travelling through different worlds and were dealing with Gods. Just a man trying to be a good dad after a lifetime of bloodshed, and delivering his wife's ashes to its final resting place.

    By comparison Ragnarok still has the familiar aspect of Kratos, Mimir and Atreus trying to be a family and Kratos opening his heart, and they tend to be the better parts of the narrative, now there's also all this other stuff. The nature of war and if there is such a thing as a right side, struggling against prophecy, Atreus becoming a man and trying to be more independent. They are interesting ideas...but they're not given enough focus to be really interesting.

    The end result for the story is that, while there are some gut punches and twists that really got me, a lot of Ragnarok feels a bit like a slog while simultaneously feeling inconsistent in its writing. Sections where you play as Atreus especially sometimes feel like an entirely different game with how quippy the dialogue is.

    Gameplay-wise, things haven't changed a whole lot. The biggest addition is probably the sections where you play as Atreus as mentioned above and while he does have a fighting style unique to himself, I must admit that I usually couldn't wait to go back to Kratos.

    I also can't remember if your NPC helpers were quite this annoying back in God of War 2018, but shouting unhelpful advice in combat and immediately giving solutions to (admittedly easy) puzzles was quite frustrating. Maybe there was a way to turn that off somewhere in the accessibility options, but if so I couldn't find it.

    Furthermore playing the game on the PS4 PRO was fine, I had some moments were the audio wasn't synching with the character models' lip flaps as well as some moments were loading times were long. But it wasn't a disaster like it was with trying to play Cyberpunk 2077 on it.

    Overal, the game is good but not great. It honestly feels like we should've had another game were we focused on making allies, building armies and all that and have the actual focus of "Ragnarok" be on starting said event and assaulting Asgard. Like what happened with the original Greek games, though I guess those focused more on keeping the momentum and spectacle going while the Norse games are a bit slower.

    I'd give the game a 7 out of 10. Give the game a shot if it is on sale or something and you really liked the 2018 game.    … Expand

    Bigger is Not Always Better
    Let me start by saying this was a GREAT Game. God of War (2018) is one of my favorite games of all time. Ragnarok was a great game, but not the masterpiece that 2018 was.

    Let me start by saying this was a GREAT Game. God of War (2018) is one of my favorite games of all time. Ragnarok was a great game, but not the masterpiece that 2018 was.

    The story in this game was strange. It was overly long and drawn out in some sections, while being too slight and shallow in others. Characters and backstories were introduced and expanded, and then never re-visited. This game was not directed by Cory Barlog, and it seems to be missing his finer touch. I have finished the campaign and yes the game is longer than 2018, but since the storytelling was a bit uneven it also feels "shorter" or "lighter" than the first game.
    My biggest gripe about this game is how certain story elements from the first game are completely changed or ignored in the name of "setting your own destiny" in the second one. This is an interesting idea, but knowing that certain story parts of 2018 are ignored in Ragnarok makes the big reveals in 2018 lose their power. It deflates the story of the first game because the big moments don't actually carry into Ragnarok the way you thought they would. This feels lazy to me and gives the impression that the writers wrote themselves into a corner and could not get out of it. Again, I wonder how much Barlog's lack of direction played a role here. This game felt much less like a labor of love and more like a video game.

    The level design was also strange. Yes they were visually breathtaking. No argument here! Wonderful! However, they felt very linear. Very constructed. Each level is a series of separate rooms that require you to slide through cracks in the wall that mask loading times. This disrupts your traversal and makes it constantly feel like a video game. Again, missing Barlog's love of the series makes Ragnarok feel more like a video game and less like a wonderful story.
    I found myself getting turned around or lost several times throughout this campaign. This can of course be linked to my incompetence, but I never remember this happening during 2018. There were also puzzles to solve and chests to open that required tricks I never would have figured out if I hadn't gone to YouTube. I never had to do this in 2018. There is a line between "engaging to figure out" and "cannot be figured out" that 2018 walked so well. This game unfortunately misses that line at times.

    The level-up process was also very strange. The load-out menu has been completely changed. It is annoying and cumbersome. I often found myself accidentally closing out the menu when I was just trying to go back one section. Relics and runes are hard to understand because you can only use a few at a time rather than spread them out across your armor. The load-out menu also looks cramped and poorly designed. Armor does not show all its stats on one screen, you have to scroll and then it reorganizes the armor based on strength. It is very annoying and hard to understand. Minor, but certain words in the menu are abbreviated rather than spelled out. This takes you out of the game experience. And what if new played don't know what the abbreviations stand for?    … Expand

Which makes it all the more satisfying for me to say it was so much better than I ever could've imagined and then some making it easily my personal GOTY for 2022. I'll start off by saying I didn't expect the soundtrack to be any better than the 2018 game since there was something special about hearing it back then but Bear McCeary actually made some new tracks that are so much more special that I was immersed even with all the UI on screen and I actually listen to some of his new tracks on my Spotify playlist. The combat is roughly the same blueprint as the first game but that's not a bad thing since the combat was already phenomenal and they improved on it even further with new tools at your disposal and a new weapon and this weapon does actually feel like an extension of Kratos's past if that makes sense (don't worry, it will once you see it for yourself) hence it deserves to be in this game. I was also glad they listened to feedback on how there wasn't a lot of boss variety in the 2018 game with new bosses being INCREDIBLY aggressive especially on the hard difficulty forcing you to change your fighting style on the fly and react in the snap of a finger. Plus, because of how it's a sequel to the 2018 game, you now have access to ALMOST all of the realms (one being permanently closed for reasons you'll understand once you play the game) and even though not all of them are fleshed out enough, they're all so beautiful and unique that they'll still leave a lasting impression and memory for years to come. Speaking of beautiful, this game is exactly that and that's especially impressive on a PS4 PRO let alone the base that it left me taking so many screenshots with the photo mode and how they even payed attention to subtle details like how when you activate the Spartan Rage, you can actually see his veins bulging. There are a LOT of characters new and old and even the characters with less screen time are utilized just enough so you can remember them all and it also helps all the performances for these characters are on another level to ensure they don't feel like unnecessary additions. There's also the fact that there are a LOT more side quests in this game but unlike most other games where they could either be connected to the world massively or just filler to extend the run time, the side quests here are in conjunction to the lore so you can do a side quest and it's so much more rewarding than a typical side quest because you learned about a characters past greatly. Finally, we have the story, sure the story in this game isn't as tight or simplistic as the 2018 game, but that's the point since you're supposed to look at it as a continuation of a story rather than a whole new story entirely and I can definitely say this is an incredible story combining both and one to leave a lasting impression for I would argue for GENERATIONS to come. Plus, there's also the fact if you actually play this game again, you'll realize "so that's what he meant" when you just shrugged it off when you first heard it making the small things hidden that make the game that much better. Now while I do see it as a masterpiece, it's certainly not a TOP-TIER one like The Last of Us Part 2 because there are some small details that while they're not a huge deal, they are enough to where I can say it's not perfect like how when I saw someone drawing, the book looked fully written in and it doesn't even look like they were even making process or even snow not moving properly when it's supposed to, but probably the biggest offender for me personally was either the quick turn being switched to either left trigger AND down button of the d-pad or moving the left analog stick down and clicking it to compensate for the new weapon as opposed to just the down button of the d-pad or some bugs where Kratos was frozen and couldn't get out and NO, the Day 1 patch didn't fix that. Now tbh, all masterpieces have their bugs and glitchs and the ones I mentioned are EXTREME nit picks and restarting the game does fix it meaning it doesn't stop this game from being an absolute MASTERPIECE. Overall, I can definitely say if you have a PS4/PS5, BUY THIS GAME IMMEDIATELY and if you don't, PICK UP THE CONSOLE for the game, don't wait for it to come to PC because that's how good it is.… Expand

    Such a huge disappointment, don't buy this game full price.

    An easy walking simulator that you go pointA to point B linear and the game you can just mash attack.

    The game experience of God of War: Ragnarök is very uneven. The title features battles where main bosses serve as damage sponges, the plot that whiplashes between soul-searching and brutality, the world that is empty in some corners and over-saturated with puzzles in others. At the same time, it is a huge, well-crafted title with good overall story and character development. The complete absence of bugs and the game’s technical performance is more than impressive.

    If Sony decided that this will be the final entry for the PS4 platform, I would be more than fine with this decision. Similar to Avengers: Endgame being the final tip of the hat to the original generation of MCU characters, this is a fitting tribute to one of the greatest PlayStation generations of all time, and a suitable send-off.

    The game runs smoothly, without any noticeable frame drop even on the older console, a clear sign that the optimization process carried out by Santa Monica Studios has been flawless... God of War Ragnarok is exactly what we hoped for, and even more. It offers a masterfully told story using a more mature approach, seasoned with a unique setting, a rich characterization of the characters, and challenges that can keep even hardcore gamers busy at the highest difficulties. In other words, it is a title that is simply just too good to be missed.
