    This game is perfect. I never cared about God of War but got it in a Black Friday offer for $10...I didn´t expect it to be one of the best games I have ever played.

    +Graphics: Incredible, it´s like controlling the cinematics of a game. When I played it I couldn´t believe those graphics belong to this PS4 gen.

    + Story and characters: Incredible story and characters. You´ll be playing the main story for about 30 hrs, it´s better than most blockbuster film but by far. The characters are very likable like Kratos, Atreus, Brok, Sindri, Mimir. It has so much details the game involves you with, like Kratos telling stories to Atreus, or Mimir improving the lore while you are travelling on the boat.

    + It´s not just a hack and slash: Also has many secondary missions, secrets and many things to explore because GoW is not linear anymore and now is a good mix of hack and slash with adventure    … Expand

    Es quizá la mejor reimaginación de un juego que he visto, la profundidad que aborda Kratos es increíble. Además de que el nuevo sistema de combate se siente super fluido y es muy buena la dificultad, la exploración no se siente lineal verdaderamente por sus ambientaciones y objetivos que ofrecen una rejugabilidad, si quieres intentarlo.

    Everything that made the previous games awesome, the ruthless bloodbath gameplay, music and characters, but now with a sincerely meaningful storyline, character development and better attention to details(like customisation and the variety of combat) makes this the best game of an already household franchise

    The worst thing of this game is gameplay, is a little bit repetitive because the amount of combos is very short for me, but isn't bad because is so enjoyable and impressive. and the axe mechanic is very good to interactuate with the enviroment. The gameplay for me is good , but 0 innovation .

    A great adventure only for ps4. Enjoy of the game :)    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. As a longtime fan of this series, I wasn't sure what to expect when going in. I must say though, I was absolutely BLOWN AWAY! The way they took Kratos and completely changed his story and character while still building on what happened in the Greek games was amazing.

    From start to finish this game is flawless. The reinvented gameplay was a much-welcomed refresh for me. As much as I loved the old games, with the old camera and old combat system, I do think this series needed a complete overhaul. The new camera style, the Kratos-Atreus gameplay dynamic, the new runic attack system and skill trees, and the new movement all come together to make a fantastic game.

    There wasn't a single moment during gameplay that I found myself wishing things were different. There wasn't a single moment I didn't enjoy. From cutting down the tree to fighting Sigrun I had the best time. This game is a masterpiece. 10/10.    … Expand

    Боёвка. Ну, что боёвка, она изменилась. Как это сейчас модно, кнопки сменили на Dark Souloвские. Но привыкаешь быстро. Сильно изменился темп битвы. Он стал каким то более медленным, тягучим. Камера сместилась на вид почти из за плеча. Враги хорошо реагируют на попадания.
    Головоломки, сундуки остались на месте, но стали интересней.
    История длинная и интересная, особенно если хоть немного знать мифы о скандинавских богах.
    Персонажи тоже как на подбор, один лучше другого.
    Теперь о не однозначном.
    В игре есть промежуточные боссы. Это такие 5 метровые инеистые тролли с обломанными рогами, их много, но...
    Есть одно но. Все они совершенно одинаковые, один со льдом, другой с огнем, третий с электричеством, каждый имеет своё имя. Но бой и внешность на всех одна. Как будто на них у разработчиков кончилась фантазия.
    Ещё очень не хватало боссов-гигантов. Это же God of War в конце концов. Был снежный гигант Йотун в конце игры, но он боссом так и не стал. Это же касается и Ёрмунганда, мы путешествуем в нём, но с ним не сражаемся.
    Так же не раскрыто большинство миров, в скандинавской мифологии их девять. И в игре они все есть. Но исследовать дают только три, это Альвхейм, Хельхейм и Йотунхейм. Так же можно открыть ещё два: Муспельхейм и Нифльхейм, но эти миры бонусные и в них нас ждут только арены боёв и бонусы открываемые за определённый лут. Больше в них делать нечего. Но надеюсь мы увидим все девять миров в God of War: Ragnarök.
    Итак, последнее это скорее придирки. Игра великолепная. Одна из лучших на PS4. А теперь ещё её можно попробовать и на PC.    … Expand

The gameplay has potential but lacks the depth of any equivalent Japanese developed action game or even from the previous God of War entries. Repetitive combat that likes to look and sound good, but not have real depth that focuses too much on slow-mo animations and cooldown focused special attacks; with a camera that's completely restrictive and stays too close to the character.
    The story doesn't make up for it and I would have taken an even less interesting story if the gameplay would have been vastly improved.

    God of War 2018 does very little to make you feel like a God. God of War 3 has a nice variety of enemies, bosses, weapons, and fantastically made set pieces. The camera was far enough to see the arena and not get in the way. GOW3 gave me the option to use more than 2 weapons by the end of the game... It's mind blowing that the second weapon in this game almost DIDN'T MAKE IT INTO THE FINAL PRODUCT. You spend most of the game using one weapon... Completely absurd.

    This is one example of many recent AAA games. AAA games are getting bigger, prettier, and more technically ambitions. With those aspects in mind comes a much, much higher budget requirement.

    So in turn we get "designed by committee" games. Satisfy as many people as possible and include as many types of gamers. God of War tries offer so many things, and appeal to so many people, that it doesn't do any one thing great. It doesn't have great combat, puzzles, enemies, bosses, weapons, or pacing. From the unneeded openesses and collectables, to the repetitive side content, to the pointless gained or lost stats from putting on clothing items.

    God of War is best when its about killing gods and using awesome weapons with amazing over the top set pieces.    … Expand

The character progression of a god devoid anymore of anything to rage about was handle spectacularly by the characterization of Kratos in the latest installment. The dynamic with the kids was just icing in the cake.

    The game's pacing was good considering it was a set up to a whole new series for Kratos. No need for grander set pieces and story yet since when those come in the sequel, it will be more satisfying with the ground work already laid out now.

    Покупал диск с рук на Авито за 3 тыщи чуть ли не в первый месяц продаж игры. Ещё и купил Day One Edition, хе.

    Ну что могу сказать по самой игре...
    Плюсы:
    1)Постановка - одной из особенностью игры является то, что всё ведётся "одним дублем", как в том же "Бёрдмэне"; постановка просто восхитительна, камера зачастую берёт максимально пафосные, эпичные и крутые планы.
    2)Геймплей - говорю по личным ощущениям. Мне эта игра показалась помесью Souls-like и слэшера, потому что от всех этих уворотов, кувырков, сильных/слабых ударов и прочего - ловятся Лордранские флешбеки. Особенно это чувствуется в битвах с Валькириями, где без прямых рук - не пройти.
    3)Ощущение боёвки - хоспаде, ощущение бросков и ударов Левиафаном и Клинками Хаоса - просто божественны. Sony SantaMonica провели просто божественную работу над вибрацией Дуалшока и ощущением отдачи.
    4)Сюжет - сюжет короткий, интересный и крайне локальный. Крайне надеюсь на его развитие в следующих частях, особенно после такого клифхенгера в виде Тора в конце игры.
    5)Музыкальное сопровождение - музыку вне игры не слушал, но как же она шикарно подходит самой игре - пафосно, эпично, К Р У Т О.
    6)Графен - завезли, он прекрасен. Удивительно, что такая старушка, как PS4fat его тянет.
    7) С Ы Н
    Минусы:
    1)Боссы - однообразные, скучные, сука, Элементали и Тролли... Но Бессмертный Дрищ крут, очень.
    2)Дизайн локаций и бэктрекинг - бляха, ненавижу бэктрекинг - БЕГАТЬ НАЗАД ЗА ВСЯКИМ ДЕРЬМОМ ЭТО ЖЕ ТАААААААААК ВЕСЕЛО, ДА. А ещё очень сильно раздражало, что могущественный Кратос не может перепрыгнуть или спрыгнуть не с предусмотренных игрой мест.
    3)Унылый дроч. И под этим я имею в виду Нильфхейм и всякую фигню по типу Петухов Одина, разбитых горшков, трансформаторных Ш-пластин и прочего коллекционного мусора. Это просто раздражает.

    Лично по моему мнению игра стала взрослее, глубже, теперь я знаю Кратоса полность. Не как кровожадную машину убийств, а как личность хоть он и бог, но при помомощи этой части мы узнали что в Кратосе есть что-то человеческое. Если бы была бы оценка оценка 1000000000 из 10, я бы поставил её. И еще это лично моё мнение и конечно вы можете его осудить , но знайте вы не уважаете чужое мнение иЛично по моему мнению игра стала взрослее, глубже, теперь я знаю Кратоса полность.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This game has a very slow start. It's a completely different game than the older GOW's and the slower pace threw me off at first. If I'm honest I didn't like the axe at all as it contributed to that slower pace, but once you get the twin blades the game's fighting really speeds up. I know it was a story decision, but I think the developers messed up a bit in this regard. The game actually felt like GOW again when you finally pull out the twin blades.

    Graphically it's beautiful of course. Sound design great. Moves feel weighty. The skill trees are good. Mechanically it's very nice. But most of the "puzzles" to obtain chests felt like padding and didn't add anything to the game. And where were the boss battles?? I was really disappointed in this regard. Basically just fighting different colored trolls and soul eaters between a couple of Baldur fights. Overall, good game but has some glaring flaws.    … 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]
