    I was expecting a great sequel to the third game of this series and I have to admit that my expectations were too low in comparison to what we got. This is a perfect sequel to GoW3 and almost a perfect videogame, the storyline, the evolution of Kratos and all the other characters is simply beautiful. Can't wait to see what the next GoW has to give to us.

    bu 3 sıkıntı harici sayabilecek aklıma pek bir şey gelmedi ancak iyi yanları da var biraz bunlardan bahsediyim.

    1.Hikaye gerçekten güzel yani ben tek kişilik oyunlarda genellikle hikayeyi zorunlu tuttuğu için önem veririm ve gerçekten de kaliteli yani geçebildiğim yerleri çok iyi yapmışlar o yüzden hiç geçmedim ama geçemediğim yerleri sürekli de geçmek istedim garip biraz.

    2.Skiller olsun geliştirme sistemi olsun silahınıza skill alma olsun o da çok iyi. Bulmacalara çok tilt oldum ama onlarıda hadi ekleyek bari diye eklemişler yapmak zorunda değilsiniz o da güzel bir detay o yüzden zorunlu tutmuyor.

    2018 model God Of War; Although not as epic as the old games, this change brought the series back to life. It is a legendary masterpiece that will not be forgotten for years with its magnificent story, graphics, characters, partially open world, references to old games, father-son relationship and many places to explore.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Though I enjoy this game it it's very good, It 100% deserves a 3 star from me not because of the storyline or it's mechanics, but because of difficulty in certain missions/areas/activities you come across, when you finish obtaining the chisel that allows you to open the doors that requires magic to open, and you exit the dead giant on the right hand side, you open a door that reveals to be a prison for a creature called the "Valkerie" not that theirs nothing wrong with the enemy it's self but the major issue is that if I'm playing on "Give Me a Story" difficulty the Valkerie shouldn't be difficult to eliminate at all.

    It's like it's cranks my difficulty from g.m.a.s to realistic instantly without telling me that going into the fight will be tough even on g.m.a.s difficulty. Devs should adjust the Valkerie and other enemies like her based on the difficulty your playing not offsetting it for the player who just wants a story    … Expand

    From the first scene opening up to Kratos and Artreus, or “Boy” as Kratos calls him 99% of the time. When this game came out everyone was making Dad of War jokes. Which is absolutely true. The character development of the two main characters is incredible. The story opens up with Kratos and Boy looking for a specific tree so that they can cremate Kratos’ wife who had just passed away. The entire mission of the game is to spread her ashes at the highest peak in the realm. It is a very simple premise that is super emotionally rewarding all the way through. When something gets in their way, it is genuinely upsetting.

    Combat feels amazing the entire way through. The pace that you progress through the skill tree matches your progression throughout the game for the most part. So combat constantly feels fresh the whole time. When Artreus starts to get upgraded and can let out a volley of shock arrows that can stun a group, so that Kratos can come in with the Blades of Chaos and wreck everyone feels awesome! Taking down bosses that are 10 times your size is an accomplishment. Especially on the higher difficulties.

    I do not think that the game drags at all either. There are a lot of obstacles that get in the way of Kratos and Boy. They all make sense narratively though. Every time there was a setback. It wasn’t discouraging. It felt like there was just another hurdle that I had to overcome to complete the goal of getting to the highest peak.

    I just really enjoyed every second of this game. The opening cinematic got me emotionally invested in the journey. The exploration and cinematic nature of the camera and gameplay made me want to explore every inch of the world and find everything I could. The opening boss fight of the main antagonist shows off how great the combat can feel. From beginning to end. This game is absolutely incredible!! PLEASE play this game!

    Auch das Gameplay ist hervorragend abgestimmt. Trotz der kinoreifen Inszenierung spielt sich God of War enorm flüssig und intuitiv. Erkauft wird dies allerdings mit den recht einfach gehaltenen Spielmechaniken. God of War macht nicht viel, aber das was es macht, dafür richtig. Die Semi-Open-World ist zudem fantastisch anzusehen, holt das Letzte aus den Grafik Chips der PS4 heraus, ist allerdings in erster Linie als reiner Actionschauplatz interessant. Wirkliche RPG Qualitäten hat God of War im Gegensatz zu einem Horizon Zero Dawn nämlich nicht zu bieten. Die NPCs sind an einer Hand abzuzählen und wirklich interessante, storygetriebene Sidequests finden sich kaum im Spiel.

    Hinsichtlich Präsentation und Inszenierung muss man God of War sicherlich als die neue Referenz für zukünftige AAA Titel ansehen. Bei kaum einem anderen Spiel klappt einem vor lauter Staunen "Wie krass ist das bitte!?" so häufig die Kinnlade runter wie bei God of War. Wenn man anderen zeigen will, was auf der PS4 noch geht, dann bitteschön: God of War.    … Expand

    The main story is very fun and nicely made. I've very rarely seen such a well told story in a game. Wolfenstein TNO maybe.

There are very poor rewards, ridicoulus bosses and I do think this was made to make fun of people that keep playing after the end of the story.

    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.

    good but not as good as the previous kratos.

    Totalmente sobrevalorado. Tenia expectativas regulares y aun asi fue toda una decepcion. Lo unico rescatable son los graficos. Pero el sistema de combate horrible, le quitaron la escencia de GoW (accion) a combate tactico que termina siendo una lata (tipo souls), a los que le gusta ese sistema bien, pero yo esperaba GoW, no esto.

    Fantastic game. Great story, great storytelling and great gameplay. Combat is less hack and slash, more methodical, almost souls like. Good pacing, It is a linear games, but with open world elements, of which are great for fun factor and gaming mechanics but hurt the story. This game sets standards. Enjoy playing.

    The combat is phenomenal! I'm playing on PS4 and it feels soo satisfying the dualshock's vibrations with every hit and slash makes the experience ever so imersive! The world is not too big, everything is there for a reason. The story is also very good and i found myself learning anput Norse mythology more than i actually expected to at first. Really amazing game!

    Delivers upon all its expectations and hype. Really interesting plot, lore and father-son dynamics, with fluid gameplay and great OSTs, which make up a great game overall. The open-world feels a bit empty and the enemies lack variety. Despite these and some other small issues, giving this game a try is a must.

The story is just the right amount of awesome and emotional, creating an amazing campaign. Easy 10/10, can’t wait for Ragnarök.

    God of War. A masterpiece.
    The story is absolutely amazing, almost phenomenal. What I loved most was watching Kratos' ever-changing contrast between the Father and the Greek God of War. At first I was somewhat pessimistic about the fusion of Greek and Norse mythology, but my fears were unnecessary.
    The characters are excellently written, all credit to the writers. That includes the    God of War. A masterpiece.

    The characters are excellently written, all credit to the writers. That includes the supporting characters, such as Mimir's head. Freya, or the dwarven blacksmiths.

    The gameplay itself is simply excellent and keeps the player incredibly entertained. It's almost addictive. Again, I have to give a shout out to the combat with Atreus.

    As far as the graphics go, the game is charming and the setting in which the game takes place easily draws you into the story. The game runs seamlessly on the PS5 console. I didn't experience a single bug or crash during my playthrough of the game.

    I can't rate it any different than a 10/10.    … 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]
