    Играл до этого в первые 3 части бога войны, безумно нравились! Новое видение игры меня приятно удивило, каждый вечер по 3-4 часа играл на одном дыхании!! Очень жду продолжения.

    Играл во все игры серии на оригинальном железе, но эта игра больше всех понравилось. Может потому что Кратос менее злой стал, или может потому что больше элементов РПГ в игру завезли. Но прошел в ней почти все кроме порталов и боев с валькириями. Дополнительные квесты очень интересные и хорошо прописанные.Играл во все игры серии на оригинальном железе, но эта игра больше всех понравилось.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. A great continuation to the original Greek mythos of the God of War series. Except a little slow in peace in the beginning chapters of the game, this game really lives up to the tittle “God of War”, the tension spiked and reached to the maximum when Kratos acquired the notorious blades of chaos. Moreover what a twisted plot and a great adaption to the Ragnarok mythos.… Expand

Y una gran virtud que tiene este juego, es que cada parte del juego está pensada para darte un buen desafio, no es de esos mundos abiertos que simplemente tiran lo enemigos en el mapa como si fuera un copy paste.

    I was 2 years late with playing the game. But by far the best game I have ever played. Being able to fight Norse gods and Valkyries, along with having a bliss storyline. Can’t think of anything the game could’ve improved on. Set it up perfectly for the next GoW release which is hopefully in the next couple of years.

    Easily one of the greates games of all time. Everything from the characters to the story, amazing world, incerdible gameplay, impressive camera work and breathtaking score is as close as it gets to perfect in terms of a game. The team behind GoW managed to perfectly evolve a classic character in a way that feels natural yet different enough to deserve high praise.

    I finally got the chance to play it after two years of release. I hadn't played the earlier games, so I wasn't sure what I was getting into. However, I must say that it's as good as everyone said it would be.

    Kratos seems to be much older than the earlier games, and through the game gets to bond with his son, aka Boy (Atreus). I found it hilarious the way he'd call Atreus "Boy" and    I finally got the chance to play it after two years of release. I hadn't played the earlier games, so I wasn't sure what I was getting into.

    A terribly repetitive game that lacks new ideas and concepts. Everything in this game has been done before, which is utterly disappointing. And the continuous repetition of activities is as foreseeable as it is insultingly easy. Fight, riddle, repeat. Until you can't just take it anymore and switch it off forever, wishing you had never spent any money on this.

    Perfect game, no doubt. A bit slow pacing at times, however, still a 9.9 game.

    Absolutely perfect game, the combat gets really fun once you get used to it, the story is amazing and the graphics are phenomenal.

    I also loved the fact that the game has no loading screens and it goes on like a continuous movie.
    Loved it.

    One of the best story-rich openworlds of the past few years. This game has much to offer to every kind of gamer. Hardcore souls-like valkyries are included.

    Imho but this game is boring. It's a very bad Dark Souls clone + camera is terrible. Waste of time and moneys.

    Love the game played it 4 times through and lived it everytime just as much. 10/10 game favourite game ever. Also, I love how the camera does not cut once throughout the entire game.

    Everything you could possibly want from a single-player story driven game.
    Great characters, character development, gameplay mechanics, pacing, artistic direction and emotion.

    Words are not enough to describe how good this game is. Combat is so damn good from combos to upgrade of weapons. The blades of chaos are soooo freaking good... Felt very emotional when I got them. A must play.    … Expand

    Don't you dare skip this game! It's truly a fantastic game! It is a reboot (one of the best i've seen) reconstructing a world and story to become its one thing but remaining true to its foundations.

It is a reboot (one of the best i've seen) reconstructing a world and story to become its one thing but remaining true to its foundations.
    Phenomenal open world with an interesting linear story. If you have to compare it to other games, well if you enjoyed Horizon Zero Dawn, the Last of Us and Dark Souls, you will enjoy this game. It takes the best of all those tree games. GoW's strongest feature is the gameplay. The fighting mechanics are amazing that gradually give you new options and skills to learn. There's also puzzle-solving areas that are all different and fun to do and some exploring areas that are very rewarding. The world, scenery, and graphics are some of the best in PS4.
    Now in a scale of 1-10, its unfair to give is a 9. This game knows what it is and hits every mark. For what is out there its clearly one of the best with room for improvement. Because of that its a 10/10 game.
    Now taking a more critical approach, I personally give it a 9.4. Why? Well there are some things that it could improve. I wish it had more finishing moves and animations when you killed an enemy, it felt repetitive after a while. Also some boss battles where a bit repetitive, with the exception of the Valkyries. The ending or final battle fell short, it didn't seem complete (story wise). More like an ending of a chapter than of a book. Still great but there were other battles in the game that were more memorable. So, it needs to add different bosses, different (or more) animations, and a to polish the story a bit more. But you can tell there is so much left to tell, saving it for the next installment.
    Over all, even in 2020, this is still one of the best PS4 games out there no doubt. You can't miss it.    … Expand

    Capolavoro realizzato bene,degnissimo successore degli altri capitoli che narrano la storia della vita dello spartano più conosciuto al mondo.Pieno di colpi di scena,ironico, bel gameplay, emozionante e si può fruire anche senza aver giocato gli altri 3.

    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.
