    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Simplesmente uma obra-prima, um dos melhores jogos que já joguei, um ícone da minha época com PS4. É uma obra focada em narrativa com dois personagens em intriga, onde eu me sentia acompanhando uma família em formação, chegava a emocionar em certas partes da história, principalmente quando Kratos solta suas ataduras dos braços e sente o vento raspar a pele antes de terminar sua jornada com Atreus. A ambientação e trilha sonora fazem uma combinação perfeita nesse jogo, que dá um ar de estar literalmente na Mitologia Nórdica, além dos belos gráficos que fizeram eu parar para aproveitar a vista artística por diversos momentos. Em jogabilidade, há uma certa mistura de mecânicas hack and slash com clássico RPG, onde dá para fazer combos, porém há uma necessidade de explorar, coletar recursos e evoluir os dois personagens, forçando eu a explorar cada canto do cenário, aproveitando cada missão e detalhe do jogo. O único defeito que consegui enxergar nessa obra, foi a falta de explicação sobre a passagem de God of War III para esse novo que seria o "IV"!… Expand

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!    … Expand

    Anyone who can play through God of War for the PS4 and PC and claim this is anything less than 2018's Ocarina of Time and Mass Effect on steroids has lost all credibility with me forever. This is a monumental step forward for every genre of video game across every platform and ANY developer worth a single grain of salt in the ocean needs to cram hours upon hours upon days to trulyAnyone who can play through God of War for the PS4 and PC and claim this is anything less than 2018's Ocarina of Time and Mass Effect on steroids has lost all credibility with me forever. This is a monumental step forward for every genre of video game across every platform and ANY developer worth a single grain of salt in the ocean needs to cram hours upon hours upon days to truly understand why God of War is not just a masterpiece but one of the greatest video games ever released since Ocarina of Time and PONG in the 1970s. Yes I went there, and I don't give a damn because quality of this magnitude doesn't come often, and when it does, hold onto your seats, grab tons of expresso game developers and take notes!

    Not since Mass Effect 2 have characters had such an intensely well developed relationship in a video game. Kratos's relationship with his son Atreus is as heart-warming as it is and gut-wrenching at every twist and turn. The character dynamics fly off the screen and the bosses will play with your psychological heartstrings at every corner. Combat is flawless, music is spellbinding, load times are non existent for what truly feels like the first ever 8K video game release on ANY platform with Earth-shattering visual fidelity and meticulous detail the likes of which no game has ever come close to equaling. Every single object in God of War was designed to bring concentrated joy, wonder and awe to the player, the level of craftsmanship by Santa Monica Studios was always top tier, but this is impeccable.

    Astonishingly well paced and the puzzles seldom detract from combat, if anything they only add intelligence to a shocking bastion of intellect. No egregious or filthy microtransactions, loot boxes or any of modern gamings greedy trappings. Just jaw dropping visuals, near flawless gameplay, a pixel perfect photo mode and everything a player could ever want from a single player experience. God of War isn't a video game, its a blueprint on how EVERY game should look, play, sound & feel across all genres in a decade or the entire industry has reached a peak that it will tumble unceremoniously down from and deservedly so. Santa Monica Studios gave you the secret formula for gaming perfection, its up to you to ensure that with great power comes greater responsibility!

    God of War is a masterpiece, a must purchase, and an experience that will change your view of human potential and video games for the next century.    … Expand

    DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT LIKE THIS GAME AT ALL, BUT I'M GIVING IT 10/10, SO YOU CAN'T ACCUSE ME IN REVIEW BOMBING, SO FOR THAT REASON ALONE, PLEASE TAKE YOUR TIME AND READ WHY I DON'T LIKE IT.

    Let's just start with the fact that, whenever i started playing video games and God of War 2018 happened to be the leading way in video game making and basically most of the games would have been like    DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT LIKE THIS GAME AT ALL, BUT I'M GIVING IT 10/10, SO YOU CAN'T ACCUSE ME IN REVIEW BOMBING, SO FOR THAT REASON ALONE, PLEASE TAKE YOUR TIME AND READ WHY I DON'T LIKE IT.

    Let's just start with the fact that, whenever i started playing video games and God of War 2018 happened to be the leading way in video game making and basically most of the games would have been like God of War 2018, i would have choose different hobby. I'm dead serious, if that was the main appeal of gaming, i would have never even cared about video games, that's how much i dislike this game. Or maybe dislike is wrong word, maybe i just don't care about it at all and that would be okay, because there's thousands of games i don't care about, the problem is that God of War is treated by some people as something deep, amazing, innovative, masterpiece, one of the best games of all time, etc. I disagree strongy disagree with all these statements. It just isn't any of these thing, no matter how you look at this game.

    I have a strong feeling that people who hype this game up have never even played actual masterpieces like GTA 4 (2008), Resident Evil 4 (2005), Red Dead Redemption 1 and 2 (2010/2018). I can give examples even about "just good" games like for example Days Gone (2019), i enjoy that game about million times more and i think it's way, way more innovative than God of War 2018. Even Final Fantasy 7 Remake is better game than God of War 2018.

    So what's the deal? Why the hype? Is it just people following hype without even caring? With same logic Studios managed to create so big hype for Cyberbug2077, that even when it released as extremely buggy and broken mess, some people still refused to believe that it's bad and some to this day call Cyberpunk 2077 best game of all time, because they just can't handle reality after months (even years) of extreme hype.

    So what really is God of War 2018? It's a game with heavy focus on movie-like long cutscenes (not as bad as Uncharted 4, but still, a lot of cutscenes). Other aspect of this game is extremely simplistic, you just smash 100s of enemies with you EPIC axe. And of course there's boss fights with HUGE enemies, like in literally every modern game (not an issue by the way), just pointing out what this game is. So by that logics, where's Guardians of the Galaxy GOTY? It's basically the same game with guns as weapons. I'm asking that ironically, because none of these imo deserve to be called anything extraordinary, fun? Maybe. Nothing special tho. But here's the thing, these cutscene heavy, hack and slash games were never the reason why i started to play video games. Never. So to put it short, my main issue isn't the fact that these games exist, my issue is that God of War 2018 out of all these games is treated as something extraordinary, better than all the others, not even in same genre, people in general call it best game of all time. That is my issue. In my opinion there are so many better games, way deeper, way more gameplay and less cutscenes and to me it feels like, most of these God of War fans don't even know about these games. So yeah, i'm not angry, i'm just disappointed.    … Expand

    One of the most emotional, gripping stories ever told in a video game format, coupled with brutal and extremely satisfying combat makes for one of the best games ever made.

    Outro ponto positivo para quem gosta de platinar, você pode jogar tranquilamente o game porque quando finalizar poderá voltar nos locais que passou.
    O Jogo tem o tamanho ideal de campanha com um gostinho de quero mais.
    Fica a sugestão para Sony um próximo God Of War lançar expansões para contar histórias de alguns personagem que aparecem no game.    … Expand

    Quick background on me the reviewer, I tend to like single player games that is heavy on narrative the most. I also play a lot of racing games and use to play multiplayer games in my high school days but now that it's hard for me and my friends to find a good time to link up so now it’s rarer for me to get into a multiplayer game.

Up to try any genre of games and sometimes I find something new that I didn't think I'd like. I own a PC (built by me), Xbox One X, Xbox Series X, PS3, PS4, PS5, and a Switch. I prefer Playstation due to their focus on narrative games. For scoring, I’ll be using the Gameinformer review scale and of course influenced by my personal opinions.

    (10) Outstanding. A truly elite title that is nearly perfect in every way. This score is given out rarely and indicates a game that cannot be missed.

    What was once just a hack and slash is now a proper game. The reboot of the franchise is well done. It keeps it’s hack and slash gameplay while finessing their narrative growth. God of War (2018) delivers on all fronts, graphics, combat, music, story, and characters. They moved into Norse mythology and has a more cinematic feeling. This is a story and a boy and his father. The Ghost of Sparta has grown emotionally and yearning for a better life and has much to learn about being a father. The boy learning to be a man and getting to know himself, who will also struggle emotionally. Together they journey to spread the ashes of their spouse/mother and learn to trust each other and strengthen their bond.    … 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

    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

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 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

    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.
