    How could you downgrade this from the first game! I guess it could be due to repetetive gameplay but seriously I regret buying this stupid game. You've lost a fan, zombie labs.

    Jogo horrível não vale 1 centavo... Mataram a originalidade do jogo. Como podem lançár um game de ação se o personagem nem pula. A sony está cada vez mais preguiçosa e lança apenas jogos estilo filme onde se joga apenas apertando apenas 1 botão e vai passando toda história do jogo ate zerar em pouquíssimas horas...lamentável...

    I am very sad that god of war has turned into some soap opera BS that no one cares about, it's a story about a dad that is trying to educate his son in the ways of killing, very murderous game, wouldn't reccommend for small children. framerate is nice with 24 frames very cinematic but that's about it.

    I was very hyped for this game but sadly it didn't met my high expectations. Bosses are reused or not even present and the boy is always crying and being annoying. 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. Wouldn't rec.

    The most overrated game ever. Repeated boring boss fight, repeated boring puzzles, even though its hack and slash but the combat is just trash. Huge world with like 2 Npc only!!! And they give the same missions!!! This game actually has ZERO creativity

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. One objective great part of the game, it's visual presentation is incredible. Everything else is just flipping the bird at what made GOW such a popular series in the first place.

    I feel like every good review is from people who didn't like the series before and now that its been filtered and altered to more "serious" and "mature" and "boring" it fits what mainstream audiences want from games now.

    What really bugs me about the story and gameplay is how the narrative between Kratos and Atreus is so apologetic about Kratos's actions in the previous games. Like he was the bad guy and *now* he's the good guy teaching his son better. And gameplay wise they removed all the "video games" elements so everything is more stifled and restrictive so it feels more in line with AAA games now.

    It just incredibly undermines every aspect of GOW. The games, all the emotional beats of the story from the last series, etc. It's like it was written and made by people who only heard about the GOW games rather than actually experienced them.

    Speaking about narrative, how it handles Kratos's past like he was some evil villian back in the day. He was extremely justified in his hatred and revenge against those gods for everything they did to him. They were conniving and manipulative **** who deserved to be wrecked by Kratos. It was only by GOW 3 where it went too far and he destroyed the world (and that was after he was betrayed by his supposed allies, there is literally no one Kratos can trust in the world).

    But for 3-4 games prior (if you include the cannn psp titles) the Greek gods thoroughly **** with him the whole time. He was a monster they made, not something Kratos is inherintly. No one even bothers to treat him like a person except Athena, even knowing how powerful he is.

    And this is not something just brought up in this game. A number of the games directly explore why Kratos became so violent, but it's even shown in GOW 1 that at worst before Aries uses him he's no different than any other Spartan warrior and that Aries started the decent.

    He even tried for a decade iirc to do it by the book and follow the god's lead just for them to pull the rug and use a technicality to not grant him peace from his nightmares. The guy tried. He was even tries to kill himself and the gods won't let him.

    The gods: tricked him into killing his own wife and child, lied to him constantly to use him as their hit man, sent his brother to hell for eternity, tried to kill him on multiple occasions, attempted to genocide his people, etc.

    And every time he tried to deal justice he has to deal with the **** of all the people defending the evil gods. I mean wouldn't you be pissed? Not even that often Kratos attempts to talk before attacking when faced with a new obstacle and they always basically tell him to **** off even knowing who he is.

    The only justification to him being an **** is how he treats regular people in the series as cannon fodder, but that I'll admit is probably a consequence of "edginess" they were going for but is rarely ever in canonical cutscenes. The reason this game turned me off outside the gorgeous presentation is that it feels like it was made by people who didn't like the original games and considered them to be low art. There are connections but it feels so pretensious that this slower paced over the shoulder bearded dad game is the more respectable game.

    Nothing you'd expect from a god of war title in the worst way imaginable. Annoying child companion, recasting Kratos and annoying RPG elements plus the fact that the gameplay is weak and story is weaker. The only people who will enjoy this have never played a god of war game in their life. Why no just make this game a new IP? It's nothing alike to the superior trilogy.

    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.

    This an average game at best you fight the same boss like 15 times 2 different ones repeated the valks&trolls. Graphics look good but the gameplay is very repetitive cant skip past foes even if your back tracking to an old area which you do alot of, theres only like 4 real boss fights the rpg mechanics are basically useless cause no matter how much you upgrade your gear it wont get better

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The short version
    - Terrible Combat
    - Terrible Story
    - Terrible Game

    Never in my life have I put a review, this is the one and possibly the only review I am going to leave on this website.
    This game is not God of War at all.
    This is not Cratos.
    This game have nothing to do with GOW trillogy.
    I got this game on sale for half price and I STILL feel like I was ripped off.
    The god of war game is known for its hardest mode, which like resident evil 4, this is where the meat of the game is, in normal god of war games you play on normal, learn how the game works, then play on hard, but in this game the game becomes an unplayable glitchy mess.
    The game on "give me a chllange" is too damn easy, I was bored out of my mind for almost 100% of it since it offered no challenge whatsoever.
    Then I switched to hard mode (give me god of war) which is when I realized that the game is nothing but a glitchy mess, enemies killing me with one hit from offscreen where the camera is impossible to pan down, attacks that must have have a terrible hit detection (this is probably due to the game being glitchy, the game doesnt register hits), The axe does nearly no damage I can hit an enemy for hours and see a fraction of a fraction of their health drop,
    The dodge machanic is glitchy = The game has so many framedrops that it is impossible to time the dodge which is 0.1 second long (I tried to swapping to 1080p in the menu and it didnt help. I switched screens to a very cheap screen I have in my house and instantly won impossible battles since the 50 fps 720p screen allowed smooth action ) ,
    Another thing is that the game overheat my ps4 so that he fan becomes load as an airplan and the game doesn't look that good, I have better looking games that has zero effect of overheating (batman, resident evil 4/5 revolation 2 which look fantastic)
    The dodge is trash = The game is grid based meanning you are fighting on little squars and dodge is so tight it sometimes roll and instead of moving you 2-3 mini squars, it doesnt move you at all, meanning after the roll you will die from one hit again and again and again sometimes the roll didn't even give me invulnerable frames and not because I rolled into something, but because the game failed to register my movement.
    The combat is not functioning hence the score zero out of 10
    Now lets talk about the story
    This is copy past the last of us, the creators of this game didn't even want to call Cratos as Cratos, he was meant to have the name Stig and be a whole other person, this game just simply use Cratos as a skin, this is not Cratos, Cratos is a villain, a hardcore killer, he is a scambag, a bad guy. Cratos does what he does because rage consume him to the point that once he couldnt recognize his family, he is a deep well writen humanoid character that has anger issues. The new cratos is a Stig that is now nammed Cratos, he is a carring loving father that is monotone, never get angry, never get passionate about killing, just a survivor. Boring guy that has nothing to do with the original Cratos.
    His son is very very boring too, acting like eliie from the last of us by killing someone then being sad about it, screaming constantly in fights, say "whatever" a million times, he is boring, pointless, I hated every moment I had him on screen, even his fighting style was boring to watch, he has literaly "son button" (go ahead, watch it in the menu that is literaly how the square botton is named) and this is nothing but watching a timer goes down 3 seconds, 2 seconds, 1 second, can shoot another arrow now. And the arrow has low hit rate, this kid is always missing, when I need him to hit an enemy that tries to level up I have to aim the camera so that he knows which enemy I want him to hit, then press square and 90% the times he would miss even though I really need him to hit that arrow to avoid a major battle shift by having enemies leveling up.
    This kid is boring, useless, constantly screaming, having a personality of a robot saying whatever every single minute. I didn't feel like I want him arround at all.
    There are no intresting enemies only trolls and a few dudes with no creativity in how they look or behave, there is no passionate delivery of lines such as when Cratos used to stand his ground telling all the gods he will stop at nothing untill he have his revange, there is no jump button, everything is context sensitive, where in the other games you can and will die during cut scenes, in this game, cutscenes are there to hide the loading screen time, so you are never in danger, lots of talking paths where you are not a allowed to run, with climing which you cant die in which is basicly even more talking sections, the game is more of a movie than a game, you cannot skip cutscenes whatsoever, there is no replay value, The game doesnt worth the half asking price, the game doesn't worth a single dollar.
    This is pure trash.

    The combat system is totally different. It is now a dark souls is clone with the combat from behind.

    You can't jump, there is not more verticality in terms of combat.

    If you're a real fan of the original games, then this is the biggest insult you could get. From the art direction, to the gameplay, to even the way the developer talks about their old fans and their old games.

    Even as a game in its own merit, it would only stand as high as a 6/10. Mindless, braindead, boring, dull to replay and trying to tell a story it fails with characters that are

Camera issues, boring gameplay that is just mashing buttons, third person camera that doesn't fit at all with this kind of gameplay and actually hinders your skill. I could go on. But basically, next time, just do a standalone game, and don't stand on the shoulders of a famous name to get easy sales.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I thought it can't be worse than the Last of Us 2 and I was wrong. A man who defeats Zeus, the God of all Gods, in this part becomes so weak that he can barely handle some minor enemies, while his son who supposed to be weak, can't even get hurt and there is nothing you can do about it: you may collect all the treasures, you may upgrade precisely all your weapons and you are still vulnerable. They wanted to do something new, I get the idea, but it just doesn't make any sense, it reminds me of Terminator Dark Fate, where they tried to show T800 to be more like a human, by portraiting him as a boyfriend of some woman. I am not convinced by this kind of experiments. At all. Not to mention that the dialogues in this game are shallow and boring. Just let people have fun again. God of War was always ridiculous but at least it made you smile and this game is just making me tired and angry and even beautiful graphic fx can't compensate it. I don't recommend this game. Expand

At the end of the game you stay the same, it is hitting everyone who comes out on the road to do something so simple

    It doesn't even stand out in the graphics, the landscapes feel similar, the drawing distance is poor, the physics totally missing, the sound worse than other saga games

    The new camera may look cool but it's actually annoying when fighting, the collectibles are boring and don't match this game.

    Kratos doesn't feel the same, it's a family friendly game.

    This is probably the least fun and most boring game I've played in a while. Combat is boring and repetitive, story is also uninteresting, Kratos is such an unfun character and boy is just annoying. Nothing is good about this game other than the visuals. An insult to the god of war series. It's just a copy of Last of Us, Uncharted and a bit of Dark Souls in the combat.

In recent decades, God of War has put out a combined total of eight games and is continuing to expand its horizons this year as well. God of War itself leads to very enjoyable moments but with everything, there's a catch. There is a lack of different points of view, the creator should have put more support characters to help guide the story. Also, the presence of more supporting characters would help the story by giving more than one viewpoint of the main conflicts. Through all its challenges and puzzles I would not be surprised if this game soon became ranked #1 for the year, because of the well-accredited reviews and wonderful gameplay that it provides. Expand

    Buggy game for multiple times… I was fighting a purple level enemy that would one shot me. Evaded his attack but got teleported back to hit zone and died, uninstalled and never finished the game.

    It’s a shame that this is the standard for today’s triple A. It’s the same game as many others but with fancy graphics and mediocre gameplay and engagement. It’s unfair and misleading for people who wants a challenge and gameplay mechanics that doesn’t feel as an excuse to stick together different cutscenes. As a film is a 8/10, but they are calling it a game

    Dad of War is awful, they destroyed the game completely, a unique gender of platform game was replaced with a generic action rpg, with mediocre story and forced emotional scenes, trying to follow the same cake recipe of The Last of Us, where every single thing is scripted, to give a ''movie like'' experience.

After all, If it already worked before several times, why wouldn't work again? With a combat that is clearly a CTRL+ C, CTRL+ V, from dark souls and devil may cry games. It's shameful that Santa Monica didn't had the courage to create a new IP, they had to surf in a name that is already consecrated, and knew the people would buy, regardless of anything. You can bet that if the main character wasn't Kratos, which people (myself included) already have an emotional remembrance about him, this game would not have all this overrated reaction. Expand

    The most overrated game in history. God of War is a boring and repetitive interactive movie/walking simulator. You don't even need to play the game, you could just watch all the cutscenes on YouTube and you will get the same experience. Don't waste you time and money on this scam.

    One word: BORING. I suggest that it be played for an hour before going to bed, so it will help you relax and sleep well. Repetitive combats and poor graphics. Inexplicable hype. Certainly the disappointment of the year.

    Don’t understand the hype. This game was very generic and boring to me personally, the kid is way too annoying as well. Some of the boss fights were decent but nothing special. Hopefully Ragnarok is better but I don’t expect it be.

    This game is not adequate. The story is honestly quite deep, about a man trying to become a father, but I for the life of me could not care less. Combat is clearly trying to mimic other popular games, namely Elden Ring, which is a disgrace. Why would a game of this size be allowed to blatantly copy a master piece such as Elden Ring and not get sued into the ground? Bosses are uninterestingThis game is not adequate.

Why would a game of this size be allowed to blatantly copy a master piece such as Elden Ring and not get sued into the ground? Bosses are uninteresting and are needlessly hard, even on the easiest difficulty which makes the game tedious and boring for a gamer like me who only has time to play 20 minutes a day and doesn't have the time to become a god like player. The kid is super annoying, and never shuts up, and I wish there was a mute the kid option but alas there is none. Soundtrack gets being praised, but it's boring. Classical music is just that, classic, not modern at all. Where's the metal? I want to hear Metallica or Pantera when I'm slaying reskinned ogre #34, not a harp being played by a depressed 50 year old man. Main antagonist is the only part of the game that is even close to being decent, but even then he's kinda boring and only shows up for like 2% of the entire 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]

    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.
