    A console defining game, which improves on and polishes every aspect of the genre. With great story telling (including the one take camera, which isn't simply gimmicky, but integral to the story telling), great characters. A game I didn't want to end! You should not only buy this game, but pre-order the next.

    Its Just a great game in every opinion. I like how the Story was telled. The music and the voices of the charachters were just perfect as the game it self. At least i want to say that i can respond the game for everyone who love greek mythology and solo story games.

    PRO: Excellent graphics & cinematic story.

    CONS: Combat lacks depth, same fight every 5 minutes, changing the colour of the same enemies, Resident Evil 4 era controls stiffness, basic/fake "open world" attempt.

    This is the best game i ever played.The story-telling , the combat system , graphics all of that is superb.Sure the enemies are repetitive like the troll or ogre who are the same but with different colour or the kill animations that are very repetitive.I hope the developers will notice that and will make a perfect game.10/10

    Simplemente es una maravilla. Kratos y Atreus son puro carisma, la historia está genial dejándote con ganas de más al acabar (ojo a lo que se viene ahí!), un gameplay genial, niveles, gráficos, duración. Es un "reinicio" de saga simplemente espectacular, poco más le podemos pedir.

It isn't really a reboot but a sequel that evolves on the previous games in the series.This is one of the best game ever. I experienced every system in the game, and there are nothing new in the game. But Balance, between contents and scenario, is amazing more than Last of us. It is perfect for me, and I can recommend this game who love story-based game or action game.Pretty much everything Ive ever wanted from a God of war game.

    2018 Best GOTY.
    Those who haven't done their previous work can also indulge in the mythical Nordic worldview with their delicate camera structure and immersive action, complete deconstruction with the new IP and perfect scenario with the implication of the sequel, literally godgame. It's sad that there's no dlc, but enough volume, including bosses and the second half of the world, is satisfying.

    An 8 for me denotes that the game is very good, potentially one of the games of the year, but maybe not quite a classic. That's how I feel about God of War.

    Let's start with the good. The visuals are stunning, the combat is brutal and fun, the big moments are truly epic, and everything about the game screams quality. This is clearly a big-budget game made with care. It's what every big game wants to be and should be. I loved it, and it was well-worth my time.

    So why not a 9 or a 10? I'd say the main thing is that I just didn't feel that invested in the story or the characters. This is probably just personal preference, but story, characters, or a big, interesting world to explore are the things that really push a video game over the edge for me. That's not to say that God of War doesn't have a good story, good characters, or an interesting world. Actually, it is very competent in all three categories. I just didn't feel that connection with the characters or become as engrossed in the story as I did in, say, the Last of Us; and I didn't feel as compelled to explore the entire world as I did in Breath of the Wild, for example.

    Now, I understand those are high bars to reach, but those are the bars that have been set. I should note that I've never played another God of War, so I have no prior emotional connection to any of the characters. Perhaps that partially explains why I love this game -- just not quite as much as other people. In any case, I loved the game, and it is well worth your time and money.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This released at an unfortunate time. As my GCSEs were coming up and so I didn't have time to play God of War if I wanted to do well in them. So I waited, and when the time came, it was glorious.

    The music felt like a perfect mix of Norse and God of War, chilling and awe-inspiring. Then moments filled with passion and fury and triumph, it truly enhanced the experience to great heights. The animations were filled with flavour and substance, each hit was satisfying and the aesthetic of the world was appropriate and beautiful, graphics as crisp as in God of War are rare and it made the gaming experience into a cinematic one on many occasions. Despite the quality of the animations, they did get somewhat repetitive towards with end, especially with the finishers. A few more in the sequel would keep the game looking refreshing in that department.

    Playing as Kratos has a high skill ceiling to truly play like A god of war, but when you get the feel of the action, it is addicting and gratifying, the abilities you unlock diversify each battle encounter drastically and with the different enemies you can always experiment and find your style. Albeit, as with the animation repetition, the combat can but won't necessarily feel repetitive too. Atreus is more useful than other companions you have in games, he provides access to areas unique to him and can hit those pesky targets that are a bit out of your reach, as well as providing great combo potential with his animal skill. The boss fights are each unique and challenging, but the Valkyrie fights are the game's toughest and most enjoyable, it is pleasure in its truest and purest form when you conquer each of the Valkyries. Especially the name that I fear, Sigrun. I've had more trouble with her than the souls borne bosses. Yes, bosses like Isshin, Manus, Nameless King, Midir, Orphan and Ludwig felt easier than Sigrun on GMABE and GMAC. I don't know why. Albeit, I haven't fought her in a while, so maybe what I'm overrating her difficulty, or I could also reaffirm my nightmares of her.

    I can't describe the greatness of the story and characters with this character limit. I'll share some brief thoughts. Kratos' development into a cold, distant father makes sense given his history and justifies the distant relationship between him and Atreus at the beginning.

    I can see why people like it and how would score it a 7, but it isn't revolutionary or even above average. I don't care for the characters, it isn't as fun to explore as Uncharted, the combat is nowhere near as good as devil may cry 5, I just don't get it.

    The graphics are good but the frame rate isn't perfect - the sound is excellent - and although it tries hard to be badass and cool and adult it doesn't seem to nail that in the same way as the old games. It doesn't have engaging characters like Sully and Drake and it doesn't have outrageous schlock like in DMC5.

    I don't think it is better than its contemporaries, I don't think it is even as good as its contemporaries.    … Expand

    Other great games are 10/10 because they earn 10 points.
    GoW is 10/10 because 10 point is the cap. 100/10 is more fitting.

Jugabilidad excepcional,    Una aventura inolvidable, manteniendo ese plano secuencia magistral de principio a fin de la historia, provocando así que te sientas uno mas en la historia al no separarte nunca de los personajes.

    Experiencia única la que aporta este God of War 4 que deja a un lado la violencia de los anteriores para centrarse en una historia muy madura de padre e hijo.

    Jugabilidad excepcional, gráficos impresionantes consiguiendo una optimización perfecta, una banda sonora que no deja indiferente a nadie, una historia que te obliga a no dejar de jugar nunca por su fluidez narrativa y un reparto de doblaje a la altura de esta obra.

    En cuanto a lo negativo, la repetitividad. Para ser un juego basado en la pelea cuerpo a cuerpo, los enemigos tienen pocas mecánicas, cada enemigo tiene 3 o 4 ataques o menos que repetirán, y hay poca variedad de estos. Los bosses, repitiendo la fórmula de los combates normales (pocos tipos de ataques y pocas mecánicas) son, tal vez, un poco decepcionantes, pudiendo hacer los combates un tanto aburridos. Aunque todo esto, lo puede suplir Kratos y sus impresionantes combos.

    Sin duda un juego que todo el mundo debería jugar.    … Expand

    One of the best games I've ever played. It was so great in everything like game-play, graphics and storytelling. In this episode of God of War series, we can see that a father dose everything he can to protect his son from the savage world and trying to keep his son from being like his own past.

    2018's God of War is the sequel/reboot of the GOW franchise.

    STORY The story is suprising to say the least. While the old GOW games was about Kratos killing everyone in front of him. This game takes a different turn and reinvents the character and the way the story is told. By taking inspiration from 2013's The Last of Us. This game is about Kratos and his relationship with his son.    2018's God of War is the sequel/reboot of the GOW franchise.

    STORY

    The story is suprising to say the least. While the old GOW games was about Kratos killing everyone in front of him. This game takes a different turn and reinvents the character and the way the story is told. By taking inspiration from 2013's The Last of Us. This game is about Kratos and his relationship with his son. What I really loved about it, is that the story feels very personal, and actually, it is. Seeing Kratos and Atreus embark in this journey to the highest peek in realms is as captivating as it is beautiful. The main theme of the narrative is family.

    GAMEPLAY

    The game still maintains the Hack 'n' Slash from the previous games. The main difference now is that the camera stays closer to Kratos body, Atreus is a great addition to the gameplay. If you are surrounded by enemies, you can call Atreus to launch stunning arrows in the enemies. So you can have a chance to hit them and regain your domain in the fight.

    PACE

    The pacing of the game is perfect. And I really mean this. The choice to have no cuts when changing from gameplay to cutscene creates a great sense of continuity.

    PERFORMANCES

    Christopher Judge creates the ideal Kratos for this story. He loves his son, but doesn't know how to get closer to him. Sunny Suljic is the son who needs and wants a father. He also confronts a reality that Kratos doesn't want to tell him, that's the wall that keeps them both distant.

    SOUNDTRACK

    Bear McCreary's soundtrack is majestic. The vocal choir that composes the soundtrack brings a sense of grander to the story and adds to the scope of the game.

    God Of War is a worthy sequel to it's predecessors and a fresh start for the GOW franchise. That leaves the door open for future sequels.    … Expand

    God of War is simply put amazing. Its combat is unique and satisfying.

This game clearly goes for a blend of methodical combat like Dark Souls with more offensive focused pure hack and slash like the originals. That being said it does stumble in many areas of its combat. The importance of positioning is lessened since you and enemies all has be this slight "auto-positioning" feature attached to them thats glides you or the enemy to a position where the attack thrown can connect. Which leads to the game sometimes moving you towards on enemy you had no intentions of attacking first. The game has a very half assed rpg system, its camera is too close for alot of the encounters it puts you in although the fact that the player can attack and move the camera can negate this issue in many cases, its can still lead to some frustrating deaths. However, the combat can force you into being far more thoughtful in your approach because of its camera as well. The main theme of the combat imo is efficiency. Whats the most efficient way to dispatch every enemy. Going into combat with this mindframe made me appreciate it so much more. Playing on hard difficulty really forcus you to think about each encounter. Yeah i can throw my axe from a safe distance over and over but thats slow, tedious, and not very on higher difficulties. I can go straight into an encounter mashing r1 or trying to be as cool as possible but thats an easy way to be hit from behind. Instead ill charge up axe r2, freeze an enemy in place for a few seconds to immobilize him, switch to blades to and pull his frozen body towards me. As hes frozen I position myself towards a cliff or wall then kick him to instantly pulverize him. I could use more examples but I'd be writing this all day. The point is the combat is more about defeating enemies in the most efficient way possible rather than looking cool or being a defensive shell the whole time. Its very unique and hopefullt they can refine these aspects further in its sequels.… Expand

But from what I understand this game plays nothing like the other ones. Which is why i'm kinda underwhelmed by the combat, I did not enjoy the combat as much as I feel I should it is average at best for me. But that still doesnt undermine when you tear some of these enemies apart. but gameplay doesnt make a whole game if it did it would make this a 6/10, so what makes this an 8 well to start the Graphics are absolutly beatiful these worlds were never distractingly fact and have me immersed just like the story which is a true 9/10. Kratos trying to be a dad after knowing nothing but blood is completely realized and him and his son trying to understand one another is ground breaking story telling. The only true negative is the INSANELY LONG animation for travelling the realms. The animation is cool for the first few times but if you are a completionist like me this will give you ample to time to go out and make a sandwich and come back and still be stuck there. But overral this game for me is a 8.3/10 and i enjoyed my time with this game.… Expand

    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]
