    There are some changes that some people might not like but is a game that you can really enjoy, they managed to change the game as sgofy needs it, good story, brutal graphics, very inmersive expierence. The bad thing is that battle feels more slow and is not frenetic as used to be.

    Overall an amazing and epic experience. The only issue with God of War is the story while amazing and emotional it is a bit shallow. This game is clearly setting up for a new trilogy. If they added more god fights and more unique enemies, it would be flawless.

    This is the best PlayStation 4 game I have ever played. The story was great , the game play was AWESOME and their take on the Nordic Mythology was really good. The only thing I hated was that the story didn't finished but except that the game is perfect. I would recommend all people to play this game.

    Let's be honest here. Sony did a great job on the marketing side for the new God of War, but the game itself is kinda overrated and it's disappointing to see how people just run here to vote 10 and write "best game ever" without saying why, just like, on the other side, there are people voting 0 with absolutely no reason (they probably never played a real 0 game). Now, speaking about GoW,Let's be honest here.

Now, speaking about GoW, it's still one of the best games of 2018, but that's 'cause of the Industry mediocre level and Santa Monica is usually two steps above the normal studios. We're still far away from games like The Witcher III or The Last of Us but the impression is that Santa Monica chose the easy way and just followed the trend while being careful to keep the soul of the series intact. Now about the positive things, they made an impressive job on the storytelling and the cinematics. Those flowing camera movements are perfect and going from cutscenes to real gameplay is always smooth. I also love the music, so rhythmically intense during fight and soft during more relaxed moments. The graphic is gorgeous on the PS4 Pro altough the level design could have been a lot better, considering the interesting setting. Combat is pretty solid although nothing innovative. It's still very enjoyable but I was expecting more from a GoW game. Lots of QTE too but most of the time they're not intrusive. Now about the bad things... except for Kratos, Atreus and Freya, I didn't like how the other NPCs were characterized. Totally disappointed by the main antagonist too. He could have been pretty good as a pre-ending boss fight, but when I saw it was really over I couldn't stop myself thinking if there was somethin' else planned and it was cut to make a sequel, since the ending is so badly open that it made me feel like I wanted to know more but nope... have to wait X years to know it, maybe on PS5 or 6, if I'm still alive. Anyway, the antagonist is never a real threat, although again, cutscenes and boss fights are really well done. Though the interesting boss fights are just a few and for the rest you meet the same enemies with just different name and colors. This thing really annoyed me just like it did with The Witcher III (but that was open world so I can kinda forgive that) and it's disappointing seeing that this is probably the weakest point of the game. 5 long years of developing and no one at Santa Monica stood up saying "wait, are we really going to just copy and past the same enemies with a different color?" Another bad thing is the quest/collectibles system. I thought games would move away from this basic structure where you have to follow repetitive and shallow quest lines or find every X number of items to get 100%. The game can last 60 hours this way but honestly... it didn't have to. This is why I can give it a 8/10. Definitely one of the best games of 2018, but the above mentioned imperfections can't really make me say "woah, it's a masterpiece". I hope Cory and Santa Monica will really innovate the series with the sequel.… Expand

It really seems like Santa Monica Studios has spent a lot of time watching the industry and the hits that really affected the gaming population. The world is immersive and interesting, the combat is visceral with a skill curve that pushes the series past its history of "fast and furious". All that said, the fury is still there and the depth to the combat gives the player numerous tools to use in the hopes of dispatching enemies. The story is well-paced if the boat heavy gameplay aspect doesn't slow things down for you. Fortunately, nearly every conversation yields some sort of insight, lore, or just a conversation to make the characters seem more alive. Endgame is light but with mini-bosses sprinkled across the maps and the recent reveal of "ultimate secrets"; I'm glad there are little bits and pieces of treasure to keep players playing. I'm almost (I repeat almost) upset this game isn't getting DLC. I think it could really venture into interesting territory while we wait with baited breath for the sequel. Overall it's a complete and heartfelt game that can hit a snag along the way, but in the end, will leave you glad you joined the bald man and his son in their quest for closure.… Expand

    Love the game! Everyone should play it! Amazing camera work, graphics, gameplay, lore, story. Very excited to see the sequels. Only reason it doesn't get a 10 from me is it needed a few more unique bosses, a few more epic god of war type bosses. What's there is good but in place of some of the trolls should have been some more epic boss fights.

    Obviously, nothing is perfect, the game has gorgeous graphics, the cinematics are perfect, the Father/son relationship develops as the story progresses, the secondary paths are amazing and interesting, it doesn´t have load screens, the combat system is most satisfaying, and the way you can upgrade your character it´s better than the other games. But this changes in the combat system won´t be for all, also there are lots of bosses encounters, and some times, it becomes boring or repetitive. But that doesn't mean that it's not a good game.

    The game not only seeks to entertain but also attract the player, narrating important factors of Nordic mythology and how these directly affect the game, also shows (as in the previous entries) riddles and puzzles that the characters will have to solve for advance in history, both main and secondary roads, showing one more time how Sonic Santa Monica can make great things with a videogame that the comunity was wating for decades.    … Expand

I have enjoyed every moment of this game so far. It is not hard to tell that there will be continues story development following this one. I would expect to see it again sometime in the next 3 years.

Along with a unique and lovable story, the game displays awe injecting landscapes and wow inspiring beasts. With a camera angle that never cuts away, This game could have made it to the movie theaters. Fortunately, it had complimentary gameplay, which only highlighted the main character’s absolute power and (depending on the player) ability to find hidden passage ways full of impressive collectibles. With a plethora of possibilities the player can select two special moves for their weapons that will aid the player in annihilating his or her enemies. My only objections to the game are the inconsistent fluidity of battle and some Mundane tasks that must be completed to advance through a level. However, at the end of some battles I let out a sigh of satisfaction after timing and pressing every button correctly.… Expand

As Much as i liked the game and how awesome it, there were still some flaws The bosses where really underwhelming and the varity of enemies was very low, all trolls are the same just the difference in looks which i found really dissapointing since GOW games are known for it's variaty of enemies you face but this just didn't have that. But other than that, this was an amazing experience and i liked so much. Story was entertaining, the Gameplay was really smooth. despite the fact this game is really beautful and heavy on graphics, there where no lags ir anything so the optimization was exellent. Overall a great game but it's wasn't perfect, Hope next time they just increase the enemy varity and Please add more Epic boss battle because there were just a few in this game,
    (All Baldur Fights - The Dragon Fight) were the only interesting fights so i hope they increase that.

The camera takes some getting used to as well as the dodge mechanic. But this game is a welcome challenge compared to the old games(which i love) which could be solved by spamming square, square, triangle. The difficulty is brutal and that is probably why its compared to souls as often as it is.

    If you explore and use every technique given to you, you will be able to conquer this beast but it will be tough. Some bosses are extremely difficult and bordering on tedious much like the cerberus boss in gow(ps2).

    The graphics are top notch. Probably the best looking game on any console.

    The story is where things get tricky. For me it was touching and personal. For some its pointless becuase "I don't play GoW for the story". For others its kind of bland. And we are all right. The story will be up to the player and their emotions to decide if its great or not. But we should all be able to agree that the story telling(presentation) is also top notch.

    The game play is where this game really shines. The combat is frantic and fluid. It requires you to use your brain and not just your fingers as it is difficult. I can definitely see how some feel it is too tough and might blame this on game design. Not true. They have let their fustration get the best of them. STICK THROUGH IT. You might feel like giving up. Don't. Trust me you will be robbing yourself of an epic experience.

    This game feels right and as a long time GoW fanatic i didn't know how to feel about the changes but after playing i can say that this was the right direction for a series that felt a little blah after ascension. Everyone doesn't have to like it to appreciate the time and effort the devs put into this game. You can feel it. Just give it a try. Chances are you will love it    … Expand

    God of War is truly a great game. The different enemies and their own different abilities has been very well thought over, like with the Travellers, Valkyries and all the other many different beasts and their own abilities.

Yes you will come across the same type of enemy but they are different, they will have different ways to damage and kill them, along with their unique different attack and defensive styles.

    The amount of detail in the game is fantastic and the overall look of the world/realms look stunning. The game runs smoothly without any bugs/glitches that I’ve come across. The story has been very well written and the voice acting is amazing. The combat is great fun with many different abilities and skills to master. The Leviathan axe feels powerful and strong. You can upgrade your axe with many different abilities to suit your own play style and add different runic attacks from light to heavy. Then you get another weapon, I won’t spoil nothing! Let’s just say you get an old friend back! And you can upgrade them with their own abilities. The armour is great with many different types of armours to find or purchase and they can be upgraded to again suit your play style with many different enchantments to attach to each piece of armour, from chest, wrist and waist.

    Atreus has his own armour and bow abilities to upgrade along with his runic summon ability. He does not have the same level of customisation and upgrades to that of Kratos, but it’s no issue.

    My only grumbles with the game is with the non retuning enemies when you back track and with the sometimes annoying back chat Atreus gives you, the typical child who thinks they know best and are an adult kinda thing. However his attitude/back chat does decline after Kratos has the talk with him.

    I was a little concern to the new look and style of the camera and more so, the combat. I am a hardcore GoW and Kratos fan and enjoyed all of the previous GoW games, with GoW 3 being my favourite game in the franchise. At some parts in the game it didn’t feel like a GoW game, more of a walking, rowing and talking game. Their are no way near the amount of enemies in this game that should have been. You can walk a fair bit to come across 3 or 4 of the standard small enemies or 1 large enemy and 3 or 5 smaller ones. This was my only issue along with the zero enemies when you return to an area that you have cleared.

    It is different to all the previous GoW games but that’s not a bad thing, not at all. It’s just a new style that does work very well. If you’re a GoW fan, you should buy this, it’s a great follow up story from Kratos’ past.

    All-in-all I’d give God of War a solid 9.5/10
    I think if you’re a gamer that enjoys a good story with great gameplay and combat, then you’ll enjoy this! This game is NOT “over hyped” at all. It has the 10/10s for a very good reason, because it is a 10/10 game, for me it’s 9.5. I think a lot of salty Xbox fanboys are just trying to hate on a game purely because it’s a PlayStation exclusive, had it only been an Xbox exclusive, you’d see them giving it a 10/10 too! But because they own the Xbox nONE xclusives, they hate it and will give it poor “reviews”.

    So my closing thoughts are; buy this great game, it’s one of the best games that has ever come out on any PlayStation console, and any console/PC and is up there with Horizon: Zero Dawn, Uncharted 4 and The Last Of Us remastered! Own it now, enjoy it and lose many, many hours of your life in a fantastic game!    … Expand

    Playing this game has been a lot of fun, but I take a huge issue with cheap attacks from buggy AI that predict your movements even after they have committed to an attack. I find myself getting hit by enemies that are clearly not in a position to make contact. Once enemies get off an attack the chain them leaving you unable to parry or roll away until you are dead.

Sí que es lo que nadie esperaba, pero sin duda, es una obra maestra.
    La historia y sus personajes están muy bien hechos, y se disfruta muchísimo más del argumento si has jugado antes al menos a la trilogía original de God of War. Las transiciones entre escena y gameplay casi ni se notan, y no hay ninguna pantalla de carga (o al menos la disimulan bien).
    Los gráficos son espectaculares y los escenarios son preciosos, y están bien estructurados unos sobre otros. Están llenos de coleccionables como distintos tipos de cofres, mejoras, dinero, etc.
    La música, aunque quizá a veces se repita un poco, es genial, aunque en mi opinión no supera a la de los originales.
    El combate en mi opinión se ha vuelto mucho más complejo en comparación al de los anteriores. No nos vamos a engañar, jugarlos en la dificultad más alta solo te obliga a ir con más cuidado. Aquí tienes que ir consiguiendo mejor armadura y mejoras para las armas, además de que ahora hay un gran árbol de habilidades para cada arma. En vez de la mítica mejora de poder simple con algún combo, ahora las armas se mejoran directamente desde la herrería con plata y materiales que se consiguien avanzando en la historia principal y se consiguien nuevos combos y habilidades con la experiencia, dándote a elegir. También se han reemplazado los poderes mágicos por unos ataques especiales que también se pueden mejorar con experiencia y se recargan a los segundos, en vez de tener un medidor de magia.
    La adición de Atreus, el hijo de Kratos, es más útil de lo que pensaba que iba a ser, ya que puede aturdir a los enemigos y puedes mandarle disparar flechas contra enemigos concretos, además de que él también tiene un árbol de habilidades propio.
    Los puzles en general son bastante sencillos, aunque originales, aprovechando la mecánica del hacha de Kratos y la ayuda de Atreus.
    Tiene un late-game bastante extenso, aunque ahí está precisamente el problema para mí. Los combates contra las valquirias están bien, aunque llegan a ser un poco repetitivas, pero los dos reinos extra, Muspelheim y Nifleheim flojean un poco. El primero es una serie de desafíos para ponerte a prueba en combate, y Nifleheim es básicamente una granja de materiales sin sentido. Si no fuera por eso, sería un juego de 10.    … Expand

    O jogo é muito gostoso e garantirá dias de diversão (se você joga feito um ser humano saudável...dá para fazer tudo no mesmo dia, acredito). De Hack'n'Slash passou-se para um jogo de Action-Adventure, com direito a mundo para se explorar repleto de colecionáveis. E, para quem se importa, é um jogo beeem fácil de se platinar. De verdade.

    Meu ponto negativo seria a falta de um antagonismo. Um final boss, por assim dizer. Baldur é bem decepcionante e tranquilo comparado às criaturas que você encontrará, caso explore bem os mapas.

    ps: ignorem os infantis dando nota zero só por negação pelo sucesso do jogo. Console war é algo TÃO patético...    … Expand

    I believe this is one of the best PS4 games I have played, yes there is a lack of bosses, 2 to be exact the rest are mini- bosses in my opinion, and yes, the game has a lot of unskippable cut scenes but that doesn't matter because this is the type of game you play from start to finish once, then spend the rest of your time: beating the side missions you didn't do or getting as highlyI believe this is one of the best PS4 games I have played, yes there is a lack of bosses, 2 to be exact the rest are mini- bosses in my opinion, and yes, the game has a lot of unskippable cut scenes but that doesn't matter because this is the type of game you play from start to finish once, then spend the rest of your time: beating the side missions you didn't do or getting as highly geared as possible, and in this game doing those things is fun! I beat the whole game and am still playing it till this day. The story is intriguing and I struggled to stay away from the game until I finished it. The game has this way of making you go back to places you've visited and they still feel fresh even though the world is considerably huge.

    The music in this game is amazing, in my opinion at least, it has a very fitting soundtrack, the type you would listen to on a trip surprisingly enough. Also, although the game lacks in boss battles, all the boss battles mean something and are important to the story. You could also say there are a lot of bosses if you include the Valkyries as bosses, which I personally do, and I think this is one of the funnest side quest in the game- although they can get really tough. The only tedious thing in this game are the Odin's raven which are only necessary when 100%ing the game, which I will be doing.

    Overall, I rate this game very highly and definitely suggest you play it from start to finish
    Also, the side character isn't useless which I'd like to see in more games-Alse    … 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.
