    Chi parla di More of the Same, semplicemente non sa come criticare ik gioco, perché è semplicemente perfetto. Inoltre chi mette 0 è solo un hater che rosica per non aver possibilità di giocarci.

    The combat is clunky and whose brilliant idea to make enemy to lose target lock if they move out of fov? seriously, this design choice is awful.

    FGod of War: Ragnarok is another masterpiece from SonySantaMonica. Flawless combat, stunning visuals, and intimate storytelling make Ragnarok the perfect sequel.

    Playing in PS5, game is great, but please make an option to remove the companion's hints!!! They ruin the exploration and treat the player like a dumb. I want to play and discover, not a guided experience. If you allow to silence their hints I will review the game accordingly.

    Sadly some Polish and Russian speaking people are reviewing bombing cause it isnt dubbed in their language *insert facepalm*.

    Santa Monica lost all my grace when I discovered in the game a skill tutorial "Death from Above" and that I strictly remember was the hall mark of "Middle Earth - Shadow of Mordor". Santa Monica thought that people might have forgottton about that game and we have a chance to gather few gems from that mightest title of the year 2012. which also happened to be the GOTY. Now this isSanta Monica lost all my grace when I discovered in the game a skill tutorial "Death from Above" and that I strictly remember was the hall mark of "Middle Earth - Shadow of Mordor". Santa Monica thought that people might have forgottton about that game and we have a chance to gather few gems from that mightest title of the year 2012. which also happened to be the GOTY. Now this is disgraceful. For a highly hyped game, you are copying ideas from another masterpiece instead of crafting your own!. Plus when I paid attention, the music intrument too is exactly the same which was in the background music of Shadow of mordor, Of Course one would always crave to make titles which came out of no where (Unlike GOW which has developed grounds for pre-hyped anticipation) and made amass players fall in love with it's fight mechanics and combat systems. Speaking of fighting mechanics, Let me emphasize first that this is a 2022 title, The developers should strive to impress the audience, not some average combat mechanics which are only made cinametically impressive with button pressings i.e. O, R1, L1, L1+R1 etc. because they couldn't craft such mechanics into skill-based combat so they made it fixed like a movie, that's completely not fine. I urge every GOW fan to at least play a full gamethrough of a 2007's Dark Sector, and you will forget the Kratos Axe, and admire the fighing mechanics it offers ( Provided you like skill based combat as opposed to pre-fetched combat scenes). Anyway, I wanted to enlighten the GOW fans that it's developers are cherry-picking ideas from another massively successful title, but still didn't manage to surpass or even give us at it's par combat system which we could really enjoy.
    * And for a true gamer, which isn't really interested in a dull story line, they should have given the option to ski the cinametics, Seriously?, we have had far better stories to watch out there, it's a waste of time, watching a dull movie, which can't be skipped in it's fresh experience ( I know once you finish the game, you can skip in the Game+, but why not at our will)

    ** Wolfs: As far as I remember, In the first game, we have been slaying wolves, and all of a sudden here we see "The Boy" has a wolf pet, which as it dies, attempts to give a grieving touch to it. Hey? if you want to make it emotional, better make a attached character from the last episode die instead of a new "Wolf" which came out of no where, I didn't care even a little about it.

    Overall, there are far better games out there to play and have fun with, and at most this is going to be a one-time playthrough for me, unlike some other games out there, where gameplay never gets old!.

    Poor level design, specifically Vanaheim. Every minute of walking is slowed down just so you can solve a puzzle to progress. Were it not for the 14 million puzzles and long drawn out elevator rides, you could finish the game in 10 hours. The lip syncing is horrendous. They didn't even try here.

    It's almost like witching a dubbed foreign movie. Post game dialogs don't even go with the events. Someone dies and later I'm told to ask the person that's dead if God's sleep. I'm gonna jump right on that mimir. There's hardly any new upgrades to the first game. Visually and mechanically just seems like a dlc. This game isn't even top 2 for goty in my opinion. Elden ring and dying light 2 are far superior.

    Opinions are my own. This game is solid, but I don't feel like it's 9/10 or perfect score solid. If it ain't broke, why fix it? This formula is solid and works well. They built on the first game but missing anything amazing that would take this over the edge. It's very much the same GoW game with some extra features

    Ragnarok could be better game than this without sony's greed. But sony has been force to make game to extend play time, gamers had to face boring puzzles, twisted map, breaking flow treasure chests.
    Puzzle is not fun or creative, Only have to do is find hidden rune or throw axe with magic. It is repeated until game is over. Is game's name God of Puzzle? And Why this puzzles does not

    Puzzle is not fun or creative, Only have to do is find hidden rune or throw axe with magic. It is repeated until game is over. Is game's name God of Puzzle? And Why this puzzles does not improved previous game?

    And map design is so suck. When you play the side quest, you have to go different area any definitive reason, even side quest is continued. So players lose their immersed on their side story, Players lose their interest by riding sleigh more than 5~10 minutes . Washington Post said ragnarok's side quest is overwhelm witcher3? That's **** Because i cannot immersed ragnarok's side quest, because it's time waste quest designs.

    Lastly let's talk about chest. Chest is hidden among maps even we play the main quest. The quest is very import or urgent situation, but you have to find chest after battle is over. Some people does not want to find these treasures, but this game is not open world game. If you Strengthen enough your cretos, you have to find chest or you cannot upgrade your weapon, rune, armors.
    Sony want force gamers time as long as other open world game. Because sony must prove the PS5 game is cost efficient product, even sony increase game price over 70$.

    Ragnarok is victim of sony's policy, and could be better game than this. We can meet ragnarok with full of creative rare puzzles, compulsive main quest from start until end of game. We could enjoy 15~20 hours with immersed in this game and stroy.
    But Ragnarok is stil good game, but i am worry about next god of war is not improved at all, except Graphic.

    First of all i have to say that God of war always been one of my favorite franchise since i played the first game on the PS2.

    Ragnarock have to be the worst Gow ever made. 1. Very bad pacing. 2. lack of combo 3. some meaningless characters in the game we dont care about. 4. A reuse of a lot of sony mechanics that they had in many of their game in the past 10 years i am not able to

    3. some meaningless characters in the game we dont care about.
    4. A reuse of a lot of sony mechanics that they had in many of their game in the past 10 years i am not able to stand anymore since they are in many of their franchise.
    5. I know its a linear game and not an open world but this have unnaceptable invisible walls for 2022. I have a puddle of water 3 feet away there is only grass but i cannot reach the puddle lol.
    6. this is because its crossed gen but still desapointing outdated level design.
    7. I remember back in the old GOW all the puzzle were different and some were tricky and you could die, the climbing in the previous GOW was more epic not jusct climbing mountains... example climbing on an actual titan, I feel the Reboot version of GOW lost some of its Scale epicness.
    I liked the 2018 game but this one is the The one that is now reaching a point of boredom.

    I still give 6 because we can see dev have worked hard on the game but i think the effert were not put at the right place.

    In comparison Elden ring from software took their dark souls franchise but cranked everything by 100. made it open world, made exploration viceral the rewards were always a surprise, a freedom of exploration, they added great things like gorse combat they managed to really improve the magic.. they made incredible art visual even if the graphics were not the best.

    To me Gow feel like a rushed uninpiring game. The story was ok but like i said half of it was boring and could have been cutted to make it a way more viceral and well paced experience.

I am so blown away, not only does it feels ungreedy with no microtransaction but i feel like a criminal owning this game for the same price as other games that now feels completly pity in comparions to this god of games.It deserves every praise it'll get. It is an absolute must play, if you don't play it you're missing out on the best game of all time. Expand

    A sequel well worth the wait and by far one of the best games in recent years. An extremely pleasant and heartfelt sequel with so much attention and thought. Thank you Santa Monica for giving us this gem. Forever a fan!

    Tudo o que a santa mônica toca vira uma obra de arte, que obra prima de jogo. História e jogabilidade perfeita, é o tipo de jogo que te deixa horas e mais horas na frente da tv e você nem percebe o tempo passar porque o jogo não fica chato nunca

    I have too many emotions for this game. A review here can't do it justice. I am sure I will never, in my life, play anything like it again. I doubt I'll even experience anything like it again. True genius game, I am actually speechless. Even if there are certain aspects you dislike, giving it a 0 is pure troll.

    Everything is indeed outstanding as its predecessor, satisfying combat system with more boss fights, gorgeous graphics as all realms unlocked, and rewarding, interesting side quest design for instance. Especially the puzzles, I really appreciated ‘em.

    But it doesn’t show that much innovation at all, feels like a huge God Of War 2018 DLC for me. Besides, fighting monsters repeatedly in short period, and procrastinating scene(get to a location and backtrack, which happens several times in game) in main quest annoyed me a bit, I believe they could’ve done better than this.

    I take exception when developers attack fans simply because they appreciate authenticity in their Norse mythology game. We all know why the woke stuff is in here, why not have the spine to be honest about it? Anyway - God of War Ragnarok is basically an expansion pack.

    I signed up to metacritic just to leave a review, the first time I’ve ever done so because I haven’t loved a game like this in over a decade. God of War (2018) was a great game, but this was on another level. I’m speechless about how much I enjoyed this game, one of the best I’ve ever played. Absolutely amazing.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. While the story was interesting, it was drawn out for too long and the final parts wasn’t as “epic” as previous parts of the GoW series. The game is a visual masterpiece, the story telling really gave you insights into the character’s history but the actual store felt rushed yet drawn-out at the same time. I expected more from the final battles/moments of the game. Expand

    God of war ragnarok is a masterpiece only 10 minutes in it surpassed my expectations and its way better than the GOW 2018 which was a 10 as well They clearly worked really hard to deliver the best experience they could for the players and made the character growth show up more

    Es una completa maravilla en todos sus aspectos, muy innovador a la vez que continuista. Juega mucho más con la música, el humor, y los sentimientos. Desarrolla a los personajes a niveles muy altos. Muestra mecánicas inimaginables en el anterior GOW.

    GOW Ragnarok is a great sequel to the amazing 2018 God of War. If you have yet to play the first one, I highly recommend a play through or look up a story recap on Youtube. The story recap on the title screen of Ragnarok is a little underwhelming. The graphics, gameplay and story are AAA state of the art. The level designs are clever.

The story was unbelievably good and had an incredible and bittersweet ending. My only complaints are that the graphics were a tiny bit lacklustre and the start was a bit slow and boring at times Expand

    Masterpiece, e ainda melhor que o primeiro jogo que já era excelente, esse jogo será lembrado por muito tempo, Kratos e Atreus estão em uma sintonia melhor do que o primeiro, a fluidez do jogo no PS5 está sensacional e no PS4 está uma otimização que eu nem imaginei que seria possível, parabéns Santa Mônica.

El juego es muy bueno de inicio a Fin, una gran secuela y gran uso de recursos que normalmente no se veían en la saga, el mapa es el mismo de la primera parte aunque eso era algo que ya se sabía por las zonas no exploradas en la primera parte, la historia y trama son una joya, una lástima que los dioses Nórdicos no estuvieran a la par de Kratos, espero que en futuros títulos nos den más dificultad.

    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.

    It’s a satisfying conclusion to the modern God of War saga, but it’s hard to walk away and not feel like this could have been something greater.
