    Game of the generation - textbook storytelling, creative gameplay, impressive graphics and art direction, and beautiful soundtrack. Would recommend watching the documentary (God of War - Raising Kratos) after the first playthrough.

    The best game of this generation, a very well-written and intriguing story, with great pacing of sequences and events, coupled with astonishing graphics and visuals.
    The third-person perspective was a great decision to make for this masterpiece; because it helped making you feel like you are exploring the world and environment.
    Can't wait for the sequel.

    Un reinvento de la saga que logró salir del encasillamiento luego de god of war ascension, marcando una nueva manera (y mejor), de seguir contando la historia de kratos. Muy buena historia, gráficos y colores increible, y un juego relativamente largo si queres completarlo al 100%.

    Very well done game story is bit to much to one side would of prefer to see more about the Norse gods but still good story my biggest issues is the camera being way to close to the character and the lack of a damn jump button and the combos variation feeling a bit lack also...but all in all good game

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Me parece el mejor juego de la generación, y posiblemente mí juego favorito, es MUY entretenida la mecánica de combate que es muy completa a comparación de otras de juegos distintos que son aburridas y repetitivas, no hay tantas peleas de jefes en la historia principal, pero los que hay son muy entretenidos. La historia es inmersiva, entretenida, hermosa, la más larga de la saga god of war, que hace honor a su nombre. Volvemos a ver a kratos, ,una máquina de matar griega, que ahora es más maduro y más amable, en este juego vemos a kratos con un lado más humano, obvio sin dejar de ser serio, es más comprensible y tiene experiencia en las cosas, esto hace que su hijo Atreus no cumpla sus errores. El único punto malo de este juego es el reducido mundo abierto que tiene el juego, hay mapas distintos, SI, pero eso no justifica las cosas que se pueden hacer en este mundo, los reinos con los mapas más "grandes" son midgard (el mapa principal) y alfheim,. Luego de esos mapas viene helheim, que es más reducido, y muspelheim y nilfheim (los opcionales fuera de la historia). En los mapas hay cosas que hacer, como abrir cofres, entrar q cámaras ocultas, que tienen puzzles muy divertidos, también tiene las fabulosas misiones secundarias, que lamentablemente no son tantas. Luego de eso el mapa no es gran cosa. Es un juego muy complicado, tanto en combate como en puzzles, pero si te lo propones, te lo pasarás luego de un rato y será muy satisfactorio para ustedes. Tiene muy buenos gráficos, una jugabilidad completamente diferente a la de los anteriores juegos, que es muy entretenida al estilo RPG. Una banda sonora INCREIBLE que hace llorar a mas de uno de epicidad y emocion. Un juego excelente, muy recomendado por solo $20.

Plus Quick time events/Button prompts are way over done for me. Oh, also, can we stop with the "no loading screens"? Because it made it so much worse. Activate a travel door. walk into the hub, wait for door to load. loads in front of you after 3-15 seconds. walk forward, activate. then load area. JUST GIVE ME A LOADING SCREEN damn. It was a joke.

    'God of War' may well be the most accomlished game I have ever played, even though it doesn't necessarily do a lot to revolutionise the genre. However, it does mark a notbale shift from the previous 'God of War' games and it gets absolutely everything right. What a brilliant game this is. Hats off to Santa Monica Studios.

    One of the best or maybe even the best game for the PS4. However, I also think that the next part could be even better.
    For example, with even more types of enemies and more animations of finishers!
    Very very good game. Level design, sound and battle system are almost perfect. However, I also think that there is just a bit more in it to make it flawless.

    25-30 hours of awesomeness. I hadn't yet played the original trilogy when I got into this game so I wasn't sure what to expect. The combat and story blew my mind and changed the way I view games. This was more than a game. It was an experience.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The God OF War game got too much of what it should be. Okay I'll start by saying that the game is definitely good, but it has a lot of cinematic climbs that just take away from the experience, a lot of parts that the game does not let you run just to show the world that the developers built
    (I can see the world even without the game letting me run), lest you misunderstand the world the developers built here is just amazing, you can go anywhere on the map and discover new things to find upgrades, and magical accessories, and in short the world in God Of War 2018 is just perfect. The gameplay in the game is just fun, it's true that in the previous review it took me a while to get used to the new gameplay style, but after I got used to it it will just be fun and more varied than the previous games (even though they are not the same genre). Spoiler) also the swords from the previous games, which you get towards the end of the game. The plot in God Of War 2018 is simply interesting and sweeping. But I did not so much connect the main thing that you go on a journey, to scatter the ashes of Kratos' wife and mother of Atreus on the highest mountain, but it does not matter so much because the characters are written so great and the relationship between Kratos and Atreus has often made me shed tear. Another thing that really annoyed me in this game is the last battle (spoiler for the end of the game), the last battle is just boring and not fun at all, it's just annoying that the whole battle you touch nothing and just see Kratos and baldur
    (I have no idea what this name is called in Hebrew) Beats go cinematically almost the entire battle, and only sometimes cross the square to see it satisfying, and defend when Baldur gives you punches. Only at the end there is a fight that at least lets you really fight against it but it ended up so fast it kinda pissed me off.
    In conclusion God Of War 2018 is a great game but it is not really a perfect game (at least in my opinion), and I am very much looking forward to the next game in the God Of War Ragnarok series that will add more bosses
    (Because I felt like this game was almost empty of real bosses), and that would give me more control over the game than seeing cinematic stuff.

    The story was great and emotional. The soundtrack and sound effect can turn cat into tiger. Combat was excellent. Graphic and animation is beautiful. All VA doing a good job.

    My only gripe is this game need more enemy variation for how big the game is

    I love how they changed the gameplay from the previous games, it feels more realistic and grounded, while keeping the amount of action a God of War games needs.

    The environment looks fantastic, so many areas to explore and secrets to find, unlocking new equipment or upgrading weapons feels very rewarding.
    The game also has backtracking, so you can always go back and find new things, and even a mini open world map where you can travel to all the realms you've unlocked and explore every last corner.

    There's a good amount of side content such as side quests and challenges aswell, you can put many hours in this game and you'll still want more, it's honestly a very enjoyable game.

    The puzzles are okay, nothing groundbreaking but serviceable, although I wish there was more variety, many of them are the same puzzle with some minor differences.

    There is so much potential for the sequel to be even better since this game sometimes feels limited, such as the re-skinned boss fights, or the lack of realms you can visit.
    There are few sections near the end where the game drags quite a bit, and it feels like unnecessary filler but nothing to worry about, it doesn't ruin the overall experience at all.

    For me this is one of the most important First Party Sony games of the PlayStation 4 generation, a videogame that everyone needs to play at least once, absolutely remarkable.

    Final Rating: "Excellent" ~ 9.5/10.

There are many types of different runic attacks to adapt to, each one unique and offering a different play-style. The combat always feels fast paced and includes some RPG elements that are not annoying to fidget around and absolutely worth checking all types of armors and runes that coincidentally complement each other. The character animations are top notch and voice acting is always on sync with facial animations. This game is the definition of a masterpiece and truly is the best game of all time. The previous games provided amazing gameplay, narrative and graphics for their year releases and are definitely worth a try too, but this game GOW(2018) is exactly the game that no one should ever miss on!

    Positives
    - The story is amazing, gripping, full of fun twists, and packed with real drama that emotionally resonates.
    - The characters are top-tier, so nuanced, deep, and compelling. Kratos and Atreus are so great, their relationship pulls on your heart strings. They take a less is more approach with Kratos, he doesn't say much but when he does it is profound and revealing. I love it.
    - Lore and worldbuilding is 10/10 it is such a cool mixture of the God of War lore, Greek mythos, and Norse mythos. Very creative and well realized. Also for those who played the original trilogy, this is a soft reboot, that still seems to count the original three games as canon.
    - Combat, the combat feels good and weighty, the more abilities you get the more complex it is. I love the combat in this game, and being able to control Atreus to a degree is awesome.
    - Puzzles and locations are also great, there are some amazing puzzles and some of the locations are just beautiful!

    Negatives
    - More back tracking then necessary for a metroidvania. I can't tell you how many times you complete a huge and long fetch quests in the main story only to get to where you need to go and find out you still don't have what you need so you go back through areas you have already cleared to get something else. This formular is rinsed and repeated far too often in this game. Sure there are more items and loot you can get with your new abilities, but with such a story driven game it just felt like it bogged the story down to an unnecessary degree. I don't know if this game needed to metroidvania style backtracking. I think it needs to pick whether it is a third person linear story telling game or a god of war game in the style of the older games.
    - Enemy design is far to repetitive. I thought the enemy diversity was really good for the first third of the game, but after that point you are fighting stronger versions of the enemies you have already seen in nearly every encounter. It gets to the point where they just have to throw more of the same thing at you to keep tings challenging, it just feels lazy.

    If the enemy design was more diverse and there was less backtracking this game is an easy 10. Hopefully the sequel will improve on this. FYI I played on PS5 and the graphics and frame rate were great, definitely recommend 4K if you can.

This is a must play game that will stay cemented as a perfect video game for generations to come. Expand

    The combat feels weighty and you really feel like a beast tearing through enemies. The story is touching yet heartbreaking. The sound design is solid and the art direction is great. It hits a nice sweat spot between linear and open world which works well for a story like this

    Que gran juego; que jugabilidad, queee!!! Gráficos y en PS5 cuando activas las mejoras es otro juego.
    Simplemente es increíble, por algo es nombrado el Mejor Juego de la Historia
    Si no lo has jugado no sabes de lo que te has perdido.

    Игра очень завлекательная, интересный сюжет, очень динамичный но не самый разнообразный в плане оружия, но в плане комбинаций очень круто. Спойлерить не буду. Жду следущую часть

    I have had the god of war games at the top of my list from way back at the original. But then, they changed it. I didn't think it was a good idea but it was amazing. Great game. I think it's a perfect game. 10.

    one of the best games i have ever played. a must play if you like story and character heavy games, with good game-play and a great world to explore.

    note that if you don't like story heavy games with a lot of cut scenes and walking/climbing. it is unlikely you will like this game

    Easily one of the best games I've ever played!! I would give a score higher than 10 if I could.

The world is delicately crafted and incredibly investing. The character dynamics are fun to interact with, and the growth this bondEasily one of the best games I've ever played!!

The combat intricate, rewarding quick reactions and "on-the-spot" thinking to find strategy to get around certain situations, rather than just button mashing. The world is delicately crafted and incredibly investing. The character dynamics are fun to interact with, and the growth this bond between Kratos and Atreus develop throughout the story is captivating. There is no shortage of things to explore, the bosses get intense and its so satisfying to beat them. Puzzles were always fun, as they meshed with the mechanics really well and were very clever in design. This a true marvel and a gold example of what GREAT games should look like. Couldn't recommend this more to you! :) Expand

    It took me a while to get into this game but once I did, I enjoyed it immensely.

Great story, great voice acting, great graphics, good combat and lots of content make this a must-own. Expand

    Confesso que nem sou fã de God Of War mas dei uma chance, gostei, já zerei 2 vezes mas não acho que é isso tudo que falam não, o Sonysta fanático tem mania de hypar os exclusivos ao extremo, mas o jogo é legal, quanto ao Ragnarok que tá pra sair esses dias, só vou jogar se cair de graça na minha mão, não sou fã pra chegar ao ponto de pagar caro num jogo

    The optional boss fights were a bit repetative.

    One of the best games I've played!

    Every aspect of this game is just fantastic. I played it on a PS4 Pro and I can only imagine playing it on a gaming computer with 60 fps but nonetheless, this piece of art will thrill you from the amazing action to the incredible world.

    Great story, great art, plenty of content, great gameplay.

    Congrats!

    The return of the furious Spartan warrior was made well. God of War is already a great contender for game of the year and you shouldn't miss it. [Issue#285]

    Cory Barlog and his team achieved what many thought impossible – despite having changed almost everything Santa Monica managed to preserve that elusive spark that makes God of War game feel like a God of War game. They created one of the defining titles of the current generation and a technical marvel whose stunning beauty in motion words cannot describe. And there’s one more thing. Barlog’s touching reaction to his masterpiece’s scores shows that even in the world of huge budgets, micropayments, loot boxes and sales forecasts there still is a place for artists who pour their hearts into their work. We need someone to remind us of that once in a while. [06/2018, p.38]

    Where most games excel in one single area, God of War manages to deliver on every front, providing players with one of the best experiences we’ve seen so far this generation.
