    After all the hype I've read about this game I was pretty excited to finally get my hands on it. Got bored not even half way through. Put the disc back into the box which now resides in a pile destined for Gamestop. The graphics and presentation are top notch to be sure and the action is decent, but the game is just boring to me. There are much better 3rd person action games out thereAfter all the hype I've read about this game I was pretty excited to finally get my hands on it. Got bored not even half way through. Put the disc back into the box which now resides in a pile destined for Gamestop. The graphics and presentation are top notch to be sure and the action is decent, but the game is just boring to me. There are much better 3rd person action games out there right now like Sekiro, Dark Souls, Nioh, Etc. that just offer far more in the game-play department.

    While the environments look great, there is not any sense of exploration or vastness. Everything feels like your walking down a corridor and there is usually only one way to go. Therefore, the action needs to be the most interesting element, yet it's just a few combos and a couple new moves you can learn. Some of the moves are actually exactly the same, involving a power that blasts enemies out of the way. There are literally like 4 of these moves to unlock that do the same damn thing. Then the game bogs you down with some unnecessarily complex rpg elements which barely affect anything until the end game. The story is really not even that interesting to tell you the truth. The Last of Us, but with a God and his son, LOL. Game gets a decent score for polish and production values, and the first fight which is basically the highlight of the game. It quickly spirals down a well after the first 15 minutes. When the best part of the game occurs literally 5 minutes after the game starts, you've got some problems.

    The game can even get infuriating with completely cheap bosses who need like a hundred perfect combos to kill. Just dodge, combo, dodge, combo. Honestly, it's lazy game design on full display. A good action game better keep the action interesting. Also, the enemies are all the same. Fight a troll, then fight a huge rock thing with nearly the same move-set, and then fight Another troll, but it's red this time. LOL. You have to change up the action by introducing new unique enemies and weapons to use in a game like this. Devil May Cry series is one that gets this right. Just as a new weapon has run it's course and starts getting boring, you find something that unlocks a whole new move-set to master. Bloodborne anyone?

    I don't know, I just need more. There is nothing fun to find and exploration is basically go down this obvious side corridor and find a chest. There are a couple puzzles requiring throwing the axe which are well thought out. For me the Sony exclusives are behind the curve when it comes to designing fun games. These games are serviceable, but get boring very quickly. You literally beat this game by going Dodge, L1, L1, L1, L2, lol. Once in a while you can throw the axe, which is cool, but does not save it for me.

    I'm out, and honestly I'm gonna be quite wary about Sony games after being burned by GOW, Spiderman, and Horizon. Sony's motto should be "Play our games halfway and get bored then grind it out to the end!"

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. First time I tried to get into this game I sort of lost interest in it. Then I decided to sit down and give it a real chance and had a great time with it. I like the fact it's relatively linear,being more story/action based than having a huge open world to explore. There is still potential to explore and side quests,but the narrative is generally fast paced and everything you do is connected directly to the main story (apart from the Valkyries that you can take on after the main story has been completed) It never gets boring and looks amazing. I was really invested in the characters,who are well thought out and complex. And although at first I wasn't sure about the combat,once i was into it I started to really enjoy it. Great game. Definitely worth a play through. Expand

The graphics are awesome, the game-play is fluid and the writing is insanely good! The migration to the Nordic Mythology worked really well. Hope they keep going this way!

    All in all, there's not much to say about God of War. It's perfect. Nevertheless, I would like to go into some more detail!

    Story: The story is wonderful. You get into the action very quickly. The story also starts very exciting and is also very exciting throughout the game. It's very sweet how the relationship between Kratos and his son Atreus develops over the course of the story. Because of this great story alone I can recommend God of War to everyone (even non-God of War fans)! By the way, I would also like to mention that the beard on Kratos looks very good!
    What definitely deserves a mention are the cutscenes. There has rarely been a game where the cutscenes looked so good. The cutscenes in God of War are qualitatively on a completely different level.

    Gameplay: The hack and slay gameplay in God of War has been implemented outstandingly well. Dodging and attacking feels really smooth. The gameplay isn't stagnant or anything at all. With Atreus you have a little help in God of War. Atreus can shoot different kinds of arrows, which is especially useful in many boss battles. Atreus was never disturbing. You can also buy new equipment for both characters (Kratos and Atreus) in God of War. But you don't have to grind much, because the end boss is also possible with weaker armor. So God of War isn't just a grind, like you know it from some role-playing games.

    Conclusion: I can really recommend God of War to anyone. Anyone who owns a PS4 should have played God of War. God of War is a true masterpiece and definitely one of the best Sony Exclusive games!

    This game imo is the best ps4 exclusive and in the second best ps4 game.

    So to start off let's talk about the Story which is the best part of this game. Is has a great storyline with memorable characters. Kratos returns as the playable characters and he is such a good protaganist. This game has a great character development aswell between Kratos and his son Atreus.

    Kratos is also a very intresting character and after the game is over there's still many unanswered questions that makes you just wanna find out about but you can't and it's good that they did not tell us everything in the first God of War 4 so they have things to tell in the next game which is going to make players excited. It can be hard to explain how this game is but you really have to play it to get the full experience. There is nothing like playing the game yourself than watching a playthrough.

    The graphics in this game is amazing aswell, probably one of the best on the ps4. The sound is great aswell.

    The combat very well made aswell. You start off with the leviathan axe. The axe throwing is really well made aswell and it doesn't get old. Kratos son has a bow and he shoots different types of arrows and the enemies that can slow them down for example.

    The world looks beautiful with some really intresting areas to explore. The two dwarf shopkeepers is really funny aswell. During the game you fight the son of Odin, Baldur as the main antagonist and some other bosses i don't want to spoil.

    Things that i would want is some more end game content. There are some things to do but don't expect sometime massive. You'll just have to find out for yourself.

    Can be hard to explain everything about this massive game but briefly said: This game has a great storyline with a good combat system with really good sound & graphics but the end game content isn't really there but overall this game is very fun and i just want more of it and i can't wait for the sequel. Definetly recommenden and if you dont own the game you should do yourself a favor and pick this game up asap!

    Story - 9.5/10
    Combat - 8.5/10
    Sound/Graphics - 9.5/10
    Fun - 9/10
    Immersion 8.5/10
    End game content - 7.5/10
    Upgrade system - 8/10

    So by that i give this game a 9/10. Definetly worth getting and a great game overall.

    The story had a beginning and a middle (the end is yet to be revealed, or they spoiled it?), the lore was exceptional, the characters well written and the battle system was quite the treat with light rpg elements that made it so much more interesting. I could feel during battles that I was getting stronger.
    They could create advantages and disadvantages with armor upgrades (only two of the three Invaldi's armor should be there) but I believe the rune system indicates that you just have to become stronger for the most difficult parts. The only tip, is to get started with difficulty setting to hard, get stronger and then start a new game plus at the outmost difficulty. Don't get cocky. Sometimes the game is punishing as hell.
    During the first boss battle I was so overwhelmed for what to come, but only the Valkyries met the conditions (by far). The game doesn't actually has boss battles, only "preludes" for enemies you will face afterwards.
    The semi-NPC works really well and feels (actually it is) part of the battle.
    Finally, the graphics are phenomenal. You, sometimes, can stare for a while.
    All that said, the game is a must buy for a job well done and how single player games must be treated.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. El mejor juego que jugué hasta ahora, me encanto la acción frenética las masacres de enemigos es genial la como siempre todo comienzo de God of War es impactante de lo mejor en lo narrativo quiero más juegos así y en especial de la zaga no te decepciona a cala lugar que vas hay algo interesante belleza de juego el plano secuencia es lo más increíble por la inmersión, la dificultad máxima te da la mayor experiencia, desatas el infierno conforme vas avanzando en la aventura

    El juego se lleva cabo en el periodo de premigración germánica cuando, según la mitología escandinava, los dioses aún caminaban en la Tierra. Si te gusta la mitología nórdica y conoces su historia, te aseguro que disfrutarás la experiencia más que el resto, pues te cuenta de dioses, sus historias, peleas familiares y traiciones y chismes divinos. En esta reseña trataré de no spoilear puntos importantes de la trama del juego, pues es uno de sus mejores aspectos y es muy fácil arruinarla porque desde el inicio se revelan cosas que el jugador debe descubrir por sí mismo. Lo que sí diré es que el argumento está sorprendentemente bien contado y tiene momentos realmente emotivos que la convierten en una de las mejores formas de contar una historia en un videojuego, ah y un final que nos dejará desarrollando teorías cierto tiempo.

    La trama no sólo se desarrolla a través de cortes cinemáticos, sino que la relación entre Kratos y Atreus se forma durante caminatas, peleas y viajes en bote. Es muy interesante ver la interacción entre personalidades tan dispares con diálogos tan bien escritos y actuados. Las animaciones faciales y corporales son simplemente extraordinarios y la actuación de voz (en inglés; no lo jugué en español) es impecable. La voz de Kratos (Christopher Judge) es uno de los mejores castings de voz de los últimos tiempos, Atreus (Sunny Suljic) lo hace excelente y la interacción entre ambos es muy creíble y bien hecha.

    Uno de los logros más grandes de God of War es que desde el primer cuadro hasta el último, todo se lleva a cabo en plano secuencia, lo que significa que no hay cortes en ninguna parte, incluyendo batallas y todos los demás aspectos de gameplay. En papel, esto parece una simple técnica artística, pero en la práctica hace que la experiencia sea más inmersiva y añade un sentimiento de presencia que no sólo resulta muy agradable, sino que ayuda a establecer el ritmo del juego.

En papel, esto parece una simple técnica artística, pero en la práctica hace que la experiencia sea más inmersiva y añade un sentimiento de presencia que no sólo resulta muy agradable, sino que ayuda a establecer el ritmo del juego.

    el combate se veía diferente respecto a las entregas anteriores. Esto es verdad sólo al principio, porque empieza con un ritmo pausado para que elijas a cada uno de tus contrincantes y decidas en qué dirección lanzar los golpes. Conforme avanzas, el sistema de batalla es cada vez más suelto y en un punto te darás cuenta de que estás jugando un God of War hecho y derecho, lleno de acción visceral y de que lo único que cambió fue el posicionamiento de la cámara. Esto no significa que una vez avanzado el juego solo luches de esta manera, sino que deberás adaptarte a cada enemigo o grupo de enemigos y, cada vez, tendrás que elegir si te conviene pelear de una forma más pausada o si lo conveniente es desatar el infierno por todos lados. En el combate pausado tendrás que aprender patrones de los oponentes para poder esquivarlos y atacar, y, aunque no llega a ser tan estratégico como un Dark Souls (lo siento, la comparación es inevitable), es más suelto y “divertido”. Por su parte, el modo de combate lleno de acción tiene la brutalidad que conoces de un God of War, con ejecuciones sangrientas y diferentes para cada enemigo y, aunque son geniales, después de combatir hordas de las mismas criaturas tienden a tornarse repetitivas.

    Desde su anuncio fue claro que God of War sería un nuevo comienzo para la serie: el dios de la guerra dejó atrás la mitología griega (porque la exterminó) para dejarse la barba, mudarse, poner su casa en medio de los bosques de la mitología nórdica y empezar una familia. Todos estos cambios no significan que el juego haya olvidado su esencia, pues a pesar de todo, tiene lo suficiente para sentirse familiar. El combate visceral y violento, los personajes carismáticos y un elevadísimo valor de producción están presentes y, en algunas áreas, mejores que nunca.

    En esta nueva entrega Kratos es acompañado por su hijo Atreus, a quien deberá enseñar a sobrevivir en los 9 mundos viva

The lead character was really annoying and his actions to toughen up his son felt really forced. The camera and buttons were rubbish. The enemies kept repeating phrases over which got on my nerves. It was just no fun. If you are going to attempt life like graphics and try to make it like you are part of a film, you have to make it a good film. As the gameplay was no fun and if it was a film it would have been a huge flop, it fell at every hurdle for me. I played Beyond Two Souls shortly after this and although it was minimal on the gameplay side it was still immensely enjoyable with very good life like graphics and for the most part good voice acting. So my point is instead of wasting 50 quid on this, get 3 months of PSNow for the same price and a whole ton of awesome games. I find reviewers all seem to like this Hollywood rubbish. Hollywood is like **** pop music. They pump a ton of money in to advertising and sell some over priced turd that they spent the last 6 months sprinkling glitter on. It's s still a turd and will never shine to anyone with a drop of intelligence. Same as they rave about Journey and Flower which arent a patch on Brothers Tale of Two Sons.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Игра-то охуенная. Не понимаю почему так много отзывов с негативом в сторону Santa Monica из-за того что они ушли от "классики" в виде press X to win, коими были все предыдущие части серии на сложности начиная со средней. Игра прогрессирует, и я этому рад. Взяв только позитивный опыт souls-like игр с их перекатами и таймингами, разработчики выдали одну из самых лучших боевок со времён Royal Guard в DMC3. Возвраты топора это вообще бомба, очень сильный упор сделан на комбинации, комх в игре можно придумать великое множество и они не прописаны по типу трёх квадратов в мортал комбат. Разочаровало лишь их однообразное исполнение (но ни в коем случае не разнообразие, т.к. они достаточно свободные и при наличии небольшой толики воображения можно создавать комбо длиною в вечность не повторяя движений) — все комбо основаны на одной кнопке и выполняются с чередованием пауз. Ветви прокачки этих навыков радуют — можно использовать всего понемногу, можно драться одними кулаками со щитом. Порадовали рунические атаки — можно одеть достаточно сильного "магического" Кратоса с упором в рунические статы. В общем, простор для билдов огромный.
    Отлично проработана логика школьника Атрея — в зависимости от костюма двигается соответственно боевому стилю. Нельзя недооценивать его умения, ибо он невероятно силён при каче его лука. Его ИИ вообще пушка, в бою не мешает, а если кооперироваться с ним и играть от его захватов — можно проводить виртуозные драки с использованием оглушения.
    Не улыбнула сюжетная линия, как только я вошёл во вкус, она сразу же закончилась. Для меня это было каким-то ударом, что-ли. Гринда экипировки абсолютно нет — можно пройти игру на повышенной сложности с бомжовым ансет шмотом забивая на прлсьбы гномов и доп. квесты.
    У игры нет какого-то линейного прохождения, по пути ты часто встречаешь задания которые можешь и не выполнить из-за перевеса в уровне противника. Не понятно, как разрабы видели прохождение игры, в связи с этим у меня осталось негативное впечатление от сюжетки — игру прошёл, а мир так и не посмотрел. Благо потом остались валькирии, Муспкльхейм и Нифльхейм — там можно ещё долго тусоваться после завершения основной сюжетной линии, но как-то странно всё это. Почему нельзя было интегрировать их куда-то внутрь сюжета, а не оставлять на потом?
    Прекрасная часть с заделом на будущее. Заслуживает своей оценки чуть более чем полностью.

I wished for more of the Last of Us feel; going from Point A to Point B, and the game centers around the exploration of the world instead of the objective. God of War doesn't do this, and instead adds roadblocks every now and then to make the game just a couple more hours long

After I finally climbed that stupid mountain up I got greeted by a very lackluster ending and then they teased some DLC with another norse god that is probably trying to kill kratos, boring game.

    There is always a "but" in the review that starts like that and it is no different here. The world itself feels empty. There are only 9 characters in the game aside from enemies and unnamed ghosts with side missions. We are visiting 6 realms, we are seeing villages but it all empty. Sure - it is explained - but still I ended up with feeling that the world is empty.
    Going back to narrative - I love how Kratos, Atreus and Mimir are interacting with each other during the whole game (even after beating main story). You can hear a lot of great stories during exploration.
    The combat mechanics are solid. Deep and satysfying. Hard enough to engage but not too hard. I liked how after beating the story I started to care about my gear and crafting resources. It shows how though through the whole system is.The combat is a little too brutal for my taste (especially finisher animations) but that just me.
    One thing that was suprisingly good was Atreus as a fight companion. He really is helping and it was good to have it on my side in combat.
    Overall, one of the best single player games I ever played. I'm looking forward for the story to continue. Great job Santa Monica Studio!

    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]
