Its because the game is lacking more of the epic and wtf moments that it used to have. Dont get me wrong, i love this game in every bit and form! But it is missing more of those epic moments rather than those intimate moments which are everywhere after the mid game and it sorta breaks the immersion and doesnt feel god of warish, it needed more of those bad ass moments. So overall the core story of the game just didnt do it for me, it felt like it was made for children and teens rather than adults or to the original god of war fans, but at least it ended in such a wonderful way and an open ending towards the next chapter.
    But other than the less bad ass moments and and somewhat of a let down about the story the new world of god of war is full of life! and full of content for you to do, its big enough to chew on and long enough to fulfil that satisfaction that the predecessor needed. With all the realms being unlocked, changes to the realms after the last time kratos and atreus have visited the realms, and more challenges and things to do and explore all the time! Even after 100% completion i still just want to go back and see how gorgeous each realm looks and feels. Combat is here in its glory yet its a hit or miss, with movements and attack changes that didnt seem necessary like holding the triangle button that you never use especially when you unlock the attack and perks that would charge your axe/ blades after a few hits, and no more upgrades towards rage and unarmed combat makes feel like a missed opportunity, tho you do unlock a whole new weapon later on in the game but ill keep my mouth shut for that, and probably thats why the whole change in combat was probably changed towards and saved for that, which you end up using the new weapon more down the line.
    Overall its a phenomenal game with a sweet soundtrack, amazing visuals and detail to the world, content, and combat. Tho the story felt like a slight let down and it did need more epic moments rather than these childish disney like acts, i felt like it couldve been the true masterpiece everyone was talking about. And i would definitely be coming back on NG+ for new content and to get a 2nd opinion.    … Expand

    What an absolute masterpiece. This game takes you in a rollercoaster of emotions, action, fear, discovery, and so many more. It just keeps you engaged from start to finish.

    Truly a beautiful game, it's an enjoyable experience overall, but it has some major story writing and pacing problems, making it a somewhat disappointing sequel but still very solid.

    I am taking my time on this one and savoring every moment. Graphics are top notch, animations, acting. Solid game. I docked a point only because it didn't innovate on much. It's still one of those, "if it's not broke, don't fix it" situations at least.

    Although I am not finished with everything, I can confidently say that God of War Ragnarok is one of the best games I have ever played. I played this on a PS5 and was awestruck at some of the gorgeous places Kratos and Atreus visit during the story and even some places locked behind sidequests. Speaking of sidequests, they are greatly improved upon from GoW 2018.

    Each side quest feels actually important to do and help advance the characters in ways I didn't think possible or fleshed out the world. One of my favorites parts in the game happened when I completed the Hafgufa sidequest. I freed the first Hafgufa with Atreus towards the beginning of the game and when I later freed the second Hafgufa with Freya after freeing her from Odin's curse, there was a genuinely touching scene where Kratos and Freya talked about what they would do for their children while the 2 Hafgufa's decided to die to produce offspring. This scene made me tear up and seeing meaningful character development during a sidequest was incredible.

    The combat is also meaningfully improved and the story is absolutely phenomenal and the best part of Ragnarok. (I had more to say but MetaCritic isn't letting me write more than 2000 characters for some reason?)

    This is a must buy for everyone with a PS4 or a PS5    … Expand

Critic's have mostly become political and annoying. I personally I believe they should all be fired. Check several reviews and judge for yourself or just stick to the average score to make your decision.

It takes a hardened, broken man, and tells an intimate and emotional story which explores the emotions behind letting those you love go for their own good. Coming of age, independence, familial love, all of that is packed in this gritty and tesosterone filled gore fest.

    This game has a story that really grabbed me more than any book, movie or any other game. Being a direct sequel to the other games in the series it continues and grabs you so fast. You see Kratos doing and saying things you would never expect but they are in character and they do a good job following how he would act as he is growing as a person / god. His son has grown a lot to into a character I really like.

    You get to play as both of these characters and even though you do not play as the son as much he is still a fun character to play as. He has good moves, attacks and solid storytelling. The new characters introduced are all fantastic and just fun to interact with and hear what they think. The extra dialogue is so fantastic to hear. I loved every moment of everything this game had to offer.

    So my big wish was more killing animations. This game offers A LOT more than id ever dreamed of. Every weapon has unique kills, then there are special kills with your rage meter, and lastly, the boss kills are *FANTASTIC*.

    I am pleased at everything there was offered in this game and honestly, I did not even want to beat it. I was sad at the thought of completing the game. I did though and now im working on getting all the trophies. The game opens up after you beat it and you can't miss any trophies which is great.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I do not hand out 10’s lightly however God of War deserved it in my opinion. Never has a game gotten me to fly out of my seat in excitement and stand to finish the game. God of War: Ragnarök took what was great about the 2018 reboot and continued forward. The combat may have felt stale to others which I understand. To me the combat felt similar but I enjoyed that combat so much previously that I did not mind. They made changes and included old runic attacks into the normal combos, one of which was my old favorite move for the leviathan axe. The thing that made it better in my opinion was a return to brutality in the finisher. Watching Kratos chop an enemy with the axe, kick them into the air spinning, and cleave them in two was a return to the old god of war we knew. Especially ripping enemies apart with the blades of chaos. The exploration aspect remains with plenty of side objectives to conquer as well. These added plenty to the lore of the story and characters. I found the interactions between the characters more humorous and charming seeing how they have bonded over the years between games. Now, the part of this game that DESERVES the 10/10 is the story. This was truly a masterclass in narrative and storytelling. The moments, the music, the action. All of it compounded into a story that will be remembered fondly by all. The game may start slow to some, after an intro scene that is one of the greatest game intros to exist. Side note: if you’re reading this and are the genius developer that had the amazing idea in the first fight with Thor, bravo. The game eventually leads into its title event where I knew I could not put it down till it was over. Truly an amazing experience that I will look forward to playing again soon. If you enjoyed God of War 2018, you will most likely love this game as well. Congratulations to the dev team. Enjoy this story my friends.… Expand

    I didn't want to review God of war ragnarok until I played all of it. I thought "I can't give it a 10 yet, maybe it will get worse as it goes on." I am so glad to have been wrong. Every time you think the game can't get any better it one ups itself. The story is, in my opinion, the best story in gaming since the last of us. The combat is fluid, fast-paced and, of course, gory.

This is the pinnacle of gaming. The story by itself is better than any movie i have seen in my life. The combat is thrilling, and the characters are so interesting. The way Kratos and Atreus develop and grow during the game is inspiring. And i love how the game is a perfect continuation of the first game, and has a perfect ending too.

    There are a lot more new and terrifying enemies, a lot more gods, bigger map, better side quests, and more beautiful atmosphere than in any game ever!

    I am truly inspired by all the people who had a hand in creating this game, you all rock!

    The game's combat was freaking amazing a straight 10/10, the best soundtracks ever in a God Of War game but the story was lacking not in a bad story sense but it was lacking the momentum of a God Of War game so id give 8/10 to story.. so all that said 9/10 is a perfect score for this game..

    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.
