    This game is so good that even if it is adapted into live action by great creators, the game will still win out when compared to live action.

    GREAT STORY
    GREAT ACTING
    GREAT SOUNDTRACKS (you'll get chills every time)
    GREAT COMBAT SYSTEM
    GREAT GRAPHICS

    The only thing not great about this game is that it ended on a cliffhanger and is now making us wait for the sequel.

Сайд квестов немного, но все они переплетаются тем или иным образом с основным сюжетом. Т.к. в игре есть много перемещений, то на той же лодке спутник постоянно рассказывает каки-то истории, из-за чего перемещения не утомляют.

    Из минусов хотелось бы отметить следующее:
    1. Не самое удачное решение с уровнем монстров. Если проходить игру на высокой или предельной сложности, то враг старше тебя на 2 уровня становится непреодолимым препятствием, как бы ты не старался, т.к. урон по противнику существенно занижен, а практически все его атаки ваншотят. Это приводит к бессмысленному бектрекингу, если вы захотите исследовать игру полностью, а вы захотите это сделать. :)
    2. Скриптовое преодоление препятствий. В игре нет возможности прыгать самостоятельно, чтобы перепрыгнуть препятствие или залезть куда-то, нужно подойти в строго определенную точку и нажать кнопку, после этого Кратос совершит требуемое действие.
    3. Головоломки. Этот минус можно скорее отнести к плюсу, т.к. головоломок всего 3-4 вида, но реализованы они таким образом, что до самого конца игрок не устанет их решать. 4. Боссы. Бои с боссами эпичны, но сам процесс боя очень скриптованный и местами скучный. Внесюжетные боссы представляют из себя несколько вариаций одного босса.

    В итоге. Жду хотя бы какие-то новости о дате выхода второй части, т.к. хочу увидеть продолжение и вновь вернуться на поля девяти миров.    … Expand

El juego es tan god of war como los anteriores, los combates son igual de fantásticos, los puzzles mantienen su esencia, el apartado artístico y la ambientación es sublime, todo lo que hacia grande a los otros juegos esta aquí, por lo que en lo jugable si lo pensamos bien no han habido tantos cambios. Ahora bien , el juego es inmenso la duración es amplia pero no esta algardo de forma artificial, la exploración siempre es recompensada y las misiones secundarias son una autentica delicia, si el jugador las omite se habrá perdido gran parte del contenido del juego, ya que dichas misiones parecen mas misiones principales que otra cosa, ya que están muy bien planteadas y diseñadas. El ritmo entre combates, exploración y narrativa esta muy bien medido y la historia es bastante inmersiva.

The characters are very likable like Kratos, Atreus, Brok, Sindri, Mimir. It has so much details the game involves you with, like Kratos telling stories to Atreus, or Mimir improving the lore while you are travelling on the boat.

Parametros doGanhou o prêmio de melhor jogo do ano (2018) e não foi por acaso. Um dos melhores de PS4 e talvez de todos os tempos. Consegue ao mesmo tempo dar continuidade a lenda de Kratos (agradando os veteranos que acompanham a saga desde GOW I no PS2) e também é um jogo fechado em si mesmo fazendo que um jogador não familizariado com a saga consiga acompanhá-lo com tranquilidade. Parametros do jogo:
    - Lore/história: Muito boa. Após esgotar as possibilidades na mitologia grega, Kratos migra ao norte e começa a se relacionar com a mitologia nórdica. Sendo esta muito popular e presente no dia a dia ocidental, o que facilita a empatia e sentimento de familiaridade por parte do jogador. Trama com reviravoltas, emoções fortes, questionamentos filosóficos, problemas que assolam a humanidade tanto num mundo fantasy de mitologia como hoje na vida real. Um jogador atento pode tirar muitos assuntos para se debater contemporamente extraindo do jogo.
    - Personagens: Muito bom. Todos os personagens principais são bem trabalhados e se não foram serão na continuação do mesmo. Vemos mudanças de comportamento face a novos fatos, amadurecimento e reflexão dos personagens. Personagens profundos que nos atingem mesmo num mundo fantasy. Destaque para Kratos que começou a envelhecer e parece compreender que muitas ações explosivas que teve no passado geraram consequencias terríveis para si mesmo para as pessoas ao seu redor e tenta não seguir os mesmos passos.
    - Jogabilidade: muito boa. Passou de um "hack and slash" puro para uma versão mista de RPG com hack and slash. Tal mistura foi bem executada e consegue trazer a complexidade de escolhas de UP de um RPG com a variabilidade de um hack and slash. Upgrade em relação ao GOW anteriores.
    - Gráficos: muito bons. Utiliza do potencial do PS4 e produz gráficos magníficos tanto nos personagens como no ambiente. Um grau de detalhes digno de vida real.

    Me surpreendeu positivamente já que "ressuscitar" franquias finalizadas tendem ao fracasso (conseguir $$ baseado na nostalgia das pessoas). Se for ressuscitar franquias é assim que deve ser feito.    … Expand

The characters are great and you believe their interactions (except for a small section where Atreus gets cocky and it feels a bit rushed). The music fits perfectly and the world is colorful and feels alive. The only problems I could find with this game are basically nitpicks: there should be a jump button, the exploration could be a bit better and the RPG elements don't blend perfectly with the rest of the game...but they are clearly overshadowed by everything else in the game (this game has two of the best moments in video game history: the first Baldur fight (best character) and the blades of chaos scene...there are other perfect moments like meeting the world serpent and fighting Magni and Modi).

It was amazing what they did here. There was always the somehow valid critique that Kratos has become more of a stereotype character during the trilogy that was only defined by revenge and hatred. Here he has grown into a deep character. A man who wants to restart and bury his past (mistakes). His dynamic with his son Atreus is enjoyable and realistic. I always wanted to see more and was invested in the development of their relationship. Even more you see the unsaid emotions as Kratos is unfamiliar in his role as father and often struggles. You can also understand each characters motivations within the story and the character development is organic and believable. With Baldur, Mimir, the witch of the woods and the dwarfs you have a very strong task of support characters. The overall story is brilliant and engaging with some twist and reveals that will blow your mind. It shows also that you cant bury your past that easily. I must admit here that some obstacles feel a bit like stretching out the game but for me this is good because of the excellent gameplay. The gameplay and battle mechanics are also better than ever. Imagine that you take away the Chaos Blades and replace them with another weapon. This should create fallout and fans that should attack the developer. Instead you hear always praise for the Leviathan Axe and how good and creative it was implemented. This leads me to the game world and riddles. The graphics are so beautiful and the riddles are so interesting to figure out. The mechanics and riddles go hand in hand. Again saying the soundtrack is good is nearly unnecessary. It is a given fact for the franchise as there is no game with a bad soundtrack. They also add more RPG elements. You can improve your characters with better levels of armor, learn abilities and create / improve armor pieces. Some have unique abilities that can also be levelled up. While you have not the range of totally switching Kratos, what would be unfitting, you can adapt to different styles. The battle system may seem limited to some but you have all tools to be awesome. There is also a game-world filled with things to discover and explore. It is a semi open world that unfolds as the story progresses. My only negative point are some of the boss battles. While there are again some breathtaking awesome encounters they recycle one type of boss too much. Overall the hype and praise is true. This game is excellent and you want to see more. It will get his place in gaming history and will be regarded as highlight of the PS 4.… Expand

    Not one for the hack and slash fighting games anymore. Trying to remember all those moves OMG brain overload these days. I still did enjoy the visual spectacle of the combat if I wasn't that really good at it. The game has a really cinematic feel to it all with no loading screens. Even though after a while it easy to spot the loading in the background areas. At a point the game started to drag and the filler and padding, became more noticble.

    Main story missions I got to feel like a powerful God. However WTF is with the over the top free roam difficulty scaling with do or die battles? When a single trash mob enemy is way more stronger and damaging than say a story monster boss or a story god boss? Then that makes no f-ing sense and is very immersion breaking to say the least this being the GOD OF WAR.

    Personally I would of liked a smaller game with less bloat. With consistent enemy scaling between story and free roam modes. The more I played the less I liked. Started at a 10/10 and dropped down to a 8/10 by end game.    … Expand

    I have had this game sitting in my ps4 library for nearly a year and recently thought let me give it a go, all I can say is wow.

    God of war is a great game/adventure with great action and brilliant cinematics, it is truly like watching a film.

    Trust me you will not regret getting this game if you like games like Uncharted , Tomb raider, Devil may cry then make this you're next purchase.

    After seeing all these perfect scores, I was honestly looking forward to playing this game. Especially after I've heard that it's not like the original games. Since I've only played the very first game and didn't like it that much, I had hopes for this one.

Especially after I've heard that it's not like the original games. Since I've only played the very first game and didn't like it that much, I had hopes for this one.

    Unfortunately now, after spending a few hours playing GoW, I must say that I'm very disappointed and I have a hard time seeing where these scores are coming from.

    From the get-go, movement and combat felt slow and clunky, as if it was trying to mimic "Souls" games... and failing at it. It lacks the weight and depth that "Souls" games have: Most encounters just play out the same, you slash, slash, slash away without thinking much about it - until the game suddenly hits you in the face with a frustratingly difficult encounter every now and then. After that, it's more mindless slashing.
    It's neither enjoyable nor interesting.

    Even the puzzles aren't much of a highlight. They usually seem to consist of "throw axe at switch, move somewhere, recall axe, repeat". And that's apparently it, at least in the first few hours.

    Also, while playing, a few questions popped into my head many times:
    - Why is this game open-world? The world doesn't seem to be designed to be explored and properly utilized.

    - Why does this game have an equipment crafting system? Wasn't Kratos supposed to be a pretty powerful god? Why does he need to improve his equipment, including his armor, of all things??

    - Why does this game have side-quests (favors) and why do they only seem to be there in order to give you more materials (see crafting system)?

    The story has the potential to be the redeeming quality of this game, but it's all dragged down by the frustratingly-samey combat and forgettable puzzles. The boredom that sets in between the story bits ruins the experience for me. I can not justify playing this game for anywhere between 20 and 30 hours (according to HowLongToBeat).

    Now, it's not all bad. I want to mention that the artists working on this game did a phenomenal job. The game looks and sounds amazing and the (voice) actors delivered fantastic work. Even the tech is impressive. In many sections it runs at a relatively stable 60 FPS on PS4 Pro, which I am very happy with.

    This means, however, that this game is "all flash and no substance", so to speak. Impressive in terms of artwork and tech but with almost nothing to back it up.    … Expand

    AN HARDCORE GAMER'S REVIEW!

    God of War PS4 or may I say God of War reboot is the most intricate, compelling and engaging game I have ever played in my life time as a gamer.

    God of War PS4 or may I say God of War reboot is the most intricate, compelling and engaging game I have ever played in my life time as a gamer. I have owned the playstation for almost 2 decades now and it's safe to say that sony really did hit the jackpot with this franchise with the way things are going, but not because of its sales nooo.. I'm talking about its core mechanics, its lore, the whole cast that was hired to take part in this reboot, they couldnt have been more perfect for their roles.

    The game does a great job at keeping you engaged throughout the whole playthrough making every moment count, meaningful.

    I played God of War PS4 for 6-9 hours every day since release. I know you're probably wondering right now as to why? When the game only offers around 5 - 8 hours gameplay to complete the full story..

    Well at first in its early days of being released, it turned out that a lot of folks were disappointed with the combat aspect of the game as it changed drastically being a reboot.. the devs had chosen the over the shoulder camera angle for the players view and the combat system had completely been changed.

    My mission being a DIE HARD God of War fan was to try and push this new game mechanics to its full potential! Whilst everyone rushed to complete the games story, I was patient and stayed at specific locations were I could battle enemies over and over again until I finally gotten hold of the games combat mechanics. From what the people were saying back then.. that Kratos felt SLOW, my Kratos in the other hand was rapid and brutal. This is because I spent some time learning a few techniques to make the gameplay more compelling and cinematic for the viewer, also did I forget to mention I have a YouTube Channel (named GBG) you can see this for yourself and tell me what you think.

    Dudé sobre el cambio en el combate, pero es la parte fuerte del título, con muchas de las mejores mecánicas que me he topado en un juego de acción cortesía de la Leviathan Axe. El segundo pilar del título es la relación de Kratos con su hijo Boy, la cual se va formando poco a poco durante la gran aventura, donde Kratos trata como puede de que su hijo no siga los pasos de ira y violencia que él tan bien conoce.

    El sistema pseudo-RPG de armaduras y mejoras está metido con calzador por moda, la trama principal no es tan buena y faltó más variedad de armas. Y ya, es todo lo negativo que puedo decir de God of War, el retorno triunfal de una serie que no me interesaba desde que vi correr los créditos de la tercera entrega.

    Good mixture between linear gameplay and some more sandbox elements. Combat system is fun and follows a logical progression as you develop through the game, introducing new moves and options rather than being overwhelming from the start. I also found the weapon and armour systems straightforward enough which is a big positive for me.

    It does a good job of being very easy to pick up and play from your first session rather than having a huge learning curve, which I personally find to be a big problem with a lot of games, where you need to play for 10+ hours before you really start enjoying them. This wasn't a problem at all with God of War.

    Some of the collectables got a bit boring at the end but obviously you could give these a miss.

    The story is well executed but isn't one of the greatest stories I've seen. When you have a game that has some of the greatest visual presentation I've seen and a cast of characters that are truly appealing and interesting, combined with an array of abilities to learn that create some of the most satisfying battles ever witnessed, you'll quickly forget that the journey is just a simple one about reaching the peak of a mountain. But hey, what happens inbetween is quite extraordinary. There's this one boss fight in the game that absolutely made me think....there is just no way I am actually playing this, am I? I was in utter disbelief. It's rare that games can make me feel this deeply about the experience I am having.

    Bring on the damn sequel on PS5, already!    … Expand

    Wunderschönes Action Abenteuer mit einem guten Kampfsystem und einer packenden Geschichte. Für Sammler und Entdecker ebenfalls ein Blick wert.

    Historia bellamente contada,jugabilidad simple pero divertida,las escenas de acción son épicas y sin ningún corte o pantalla de carga,la evolución de la relación Kratos-Atreuss es llevada a la perfección,la banda sonora es sublime,sin duda alguna es el juego de la generación

    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.
