    Nesse novo God of War trouxeram os acertos que têm no jogo anterior e, além disso, adicionaram muitas novidades no combate, nas animações, finalizações etc. A arte visual está lindíssima e riquíssima, bem como a trilha sonora impecável. Sem dúvidas, um dos melhores jogos desse ano de 2022.

    Im halfway through, and so far, this seems like the perfect sequel to 2018’s God of War. The interactions between the characters, the story, the traversal, the combat and the skill tree all seem like they were upgraded.

    The love Santa Monica has with this saga shows, and this feels like a masterpiece, cant wait to finish the game, just so I can restart it again!

    Com um enredo que supera obras cinematográficas, jogabilidade excelente e personagens cativantes, God of War Ragnarök é digno de jogo do ano. Acompanho a jornada de Kratos desde 2005 no PS2 e finalizei cada jogo diversas vezes pelo fator raplay. Fantástico!

    This game was everything you could expect from a runner up to the previous game in 2018. It perfectly flows into this further build on the story and environment itself. Aight the combat system slightly upgraded it really feels like you’re doing damage with the weapon options you have. Truly a masterpiece yet again by SMS.

    I will start this off by saying, I am 32 years old and have been playing God of War since the series first started on PS2.
    When they came out with the 2018 version, i was blown away by the change of direction. Story was fantastic, plot twists happen. Overall great game. Since then, I have been waiting for the follow up to the 2018 ending.
    Let me say, I am not disappointed. The graphics    I will start this off by saying, I am 32 years old and have been playing God of War since the series first started on PS2.
    When they came out with the 2018 version, i was blown away by the change of direction. Story was fantastic, plot twists happen. Overall great game. Since then, I have been waiting for the follow up to the 2018 ending.

    Let me say, I am not disappointed. The graphics on PS5 are amazing in high frame rate quality mode with a VRR display (LG cx in my case). The colors, textures, hair, fur, faces, backrounds. Its all amazing to see the amount of detail coming in every direction. There were a few times that I stopped and turned around to look at the sun ray coming through a cave as water dripped from above. It is just a beautiful experience.

    Sound was well done also. I tried using both a headset with 3d sound, and my home theater system. The way they handled the surround sound made me feel much more immersed than I ever did in the 2018 game.
    Accessibility options are here as well as controller remapping too. This was a welcome addition as the 2018 lacked many features for people with disabilities. I have a hard time with colors, so finding ravens was very difficult in 2018 for me. With the high contrast mode, I can see much more clear and I appreciate that. I wish they could've given options to remap the menu buttons to the 2018 style.
    Story is immersive and I constantly want to know what is going to happen next. I wont go into any detail to avoid spoilers but the amount of boss fights is awesome, and the animations feel much more fleshed out and life like.
    2018 balder fight felt stiff. 2022 thor fight was glorious.

    Controller haptics are great also. The way it feels when you through the ax is just pure enjoyment to me. I wish they wouldve added a little more to bows.
    To anyone looking for a great story, fun combat, beautiful animation, no loading screens, and overall great experience, I strongly suggest giving ragnarok a try.

    CONS:
    I like the 2018 interface better. I find it hard to figure out whats going on in the menus for armor and such. There is just too much information and its not easy on the eyes.
    I miss that the touch pad was only for the map before as well.
    Most times when i try to click the left side, it still pulls up the armor menu instead of the map.
    2018 handled this better overall.

    There are only 36 trophies. I was hoping for at least 50. as it helps with replayability.
    No new game plus at launch (another opportunity for more trophies too)
    2018 added new game plus roughly 4 months after releasing, but did not add trophies which was sad to me.
    No button remapping for the menu.

    Only other thing that i wish, was that it was longer because i didn't want it to end. It was a good length overall, but I did feel that some areas were rushed and could've been dove into more.

    Cons aside,

    I have never had a game that was so hyped that ended up over delivering in most areas. If you even compare screen shots from trailers to the final game, they reworked and added so much detail to scenes and game play and never once mentioned it until it was released for people to see themselves. Compare the trailer with Freya jumping onto the sled to the scene in the actual game. My expectations were exceeded.

    Overall, God of War Ragnarok is a masterpiece from one of the few companies that still cares about gamers. Their work speaks for itself and I am so thankful.    … Expand

There are unanswered questions but, again, i can fully understand the development process and i am sure that those questions will be answered soon enough. I've laughed, got anxious, and cried all the way trough the game. The combat is so good. It takes the same formula as the 2018 one and enhances it. The story is the best part for me, tho. It blends so well with the previous entry and the greek saga (with some cool throwbacks to other games and cameos aswell, the MK9 one got me surprised tho haha). Also the mask being related to greece was a HOLY COW moment to me. I'm curios to know if the mask and that riff are somehow related to the higher place of existence. Anyway, can't wait for the theories to show up :)

    Finished Elden Ring, and yeah it was a good game (im saying that because a lot of you think that if ER doesn't win GOTY then the Game Awards are rigged, just stop it, check the user scores), really liked ER, but man, for me GOWR takes the place for the best game i've ever played. No one can take that from me even if it wins or not the GOTY award. It holds a special place in my heart! Thank you Eric, Cory, Jaffe for starting this adventure, and the whole SMS team!    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The game is not perfect. However it is still one of the best experience I've had playing a game. The art direction is absolutely splendid, sound design is amazing, side quests are very well made at least the more character focused ones, they tie in very well to the main story. The voice acting is some of the best in gaming. However there are some aspects that makes this game a 9/10 to me instead of a 10/10.

    First thing is the story. Don't get me wrong it was good and filled with emotions but just wasn't told in the best way. It felt like the game needed to me a bit longer to tell the story properly. They were trying to do too many things in too little amount of time which made the story feel rushed at times. But overall the story and most of the main characters were very well written.

    Second, I did not really like how many hours we play as Atreus for how short the story felt. In the end It felt like i didn't spend enough of the journey with Kratos. Gameplay of Atreus was really enjoyable but too drawn out and too long. Just my opinion though. Its not that big of a deal.

    I also really hoped that they gave Kratos new moves. Sure the new weapon is a breath of fresh air when it comes to combat but nothing changed with the Leviathan Axe and the Blades of Chaos from the last game. I really loved the combat in the last game so I loved it in this one too but they could've have given Kratos a handful of new moves at least with new animations. I guess their focus went into Atreus and the new weapon instead.

    And I think the last and biggest problem I had with the game was the dialect. It had no business being as modern as it was. The dialog really stuck out like a sore thumb. Like Odin saying "my ex". Anyways I don't know if it bothered others but it certainly did me.    … Expand

The game starts immediately after the end of its prequel, so in terms of narrative and storytelling it requires to have beaten (at least) the main game, although its highly recommendable to have been through the side content as well.
    In terms of gameplay, the game feels more agile and intuitive than its prequel, especially in specific features as climbing. The combat mechanics are deeper, more polished and have more variety as well. Moreover, the number of environments and scenarios you can get immersed into is greater, and visiting the different Realms is an audiovisual marvel, as the technical quality of the game is beyond question, as well as its performance, which has been pretty solid during my whole gameplay (at least playing the PS5 Favour Performance graphic mode, which was my choice to enjoy the game). However, the fact that the game was originally developed for the PS4 is evidenced in some hidden in-game loading screens (in form of corridors, fissures and other spaces).
    Regarding the length of the game, it can take from 20 to 25 hours to beat in the normal (Give me balance) difficulty, which is a really satisfactory duration. Furthermore, God of War: Ragnarok contains some of the best side missions ever designed, many of them focusing on the story of the secondary characters.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. God of war Ragnarok is a true master piece of a game, picking up right where 2018 left of and adding more depth and life to all the characters into the game. in this game they addressed critical issues in from the 2018 from enemy variety to the process of kicking down chains. The game has quite a few puzzles throughout the story though not very challenging they add a nice break between the exciting combat moments so you don't get worn down. The combat in the game was much better than the 2018 game adding more moves and abilities to characters and even a new weapon. The story writers and developers did an amazing job adding shocking moments to the game and evolving the experience by making Atreus a playable character. The ending of this game was very touching and emotional and I just hope the find a way to bring Atreus back to the future games.… Expand

    An emotional roller coaster. The story in this game is breathtaking. I couldn’t stop playing it, because I wanted to know, what happens next. A beautiful ending to this saga. It’s everything God of War 2018 was and more.

    El juego es increible, es mejor que en casi todos los aspectos respecto a su antecesor. Sin embargo, como conocedor de la mitologia nordica, hay rasgos en la historia que no me terminaron de convencer y creo que se podrian haber explotado mucho mejor. Mas alla de mi apreciación personal el juegos es sobresaliente, enhorabuena para Sony y Santamonica.

Was an incredible and compelling thrill ride to the very end. I mean the passion that is on display throughout the hours of playtime... wow! 10/10! 110%

    Across the board an improvement on the prior game. The combat has new mechanics that compliment the old. The narrative is interesting and the characters have progressed in unexpected ways. Traversal isn’t as tacked on as it used to be. Visuals and set pieces are dramatic and captivating. They took a near perfect game and polished it to bring ever closer to that impossible ideal.

    I didn’t bet big on this game because I knew from the gameplay that it was the same as with the game of 2018 with only some changes, but here’s the end of the story - it was really interesting to find out how Atreus was already in the established status of a warrior along with his father Kratos : how will they resist the upcoming actions of ragnarok.

    I made a metacritic account just to review this game. It's fantastic. Visuals are stunning, combat is excellent and the story is engaging. My only gripe with it are the hints your companions give you for puzzle sections. They're unnecessary and a little eye roll inducing. Like yes, I do see that big shiny glowing rock in front of me... shut up boy.

    Puzzles are more complex (tho the characters help too much for my liking).

    I can't help but tip my hat to the entire Santa Monica team. The deeper you delve into the game, the more you'll be drawn into the stunning story of a father and son against the backdrop of perhaps history's most horrific war. Throw in some casually endearing humour, great and fluid gameplay, and wrap it all up with an amazing audiovisual experience. [Issue#323]

    Thanks to an amazing cast that’s doing an outstanding job, a compelling story told through the eyes of multiple characters, and top-notch combat, this epic and heartfelt journey strikes all the right chord. It’s impossible not to recommend God of War Ragnarok, but just in case you had any doubts, I strongly advise anyone mildly interested in gaming to play Santa Monica Studio’s latest masterpiece.
