    The game contains many errors. And also the lack of challenge in the puzzles

    El juego lamentablemente es continuista, hay Bugs de audio,es muy pesado las cinematicas, le hace falta más acción, los enemigos no son tan espectaculares, y esta grosería nomida al goty? Vergüenza total.

    It's not a videogame, but a huge waste of time. Every cutscene is unskippable, every animation is unnecessarily long. Who has time for all that?

    dlaczego nie mogę wybrać języka innego niż niemiecki, włoski, francuski lub angielski w regionie Wielkiej Brytanii? po co tłumaczyć grę na tyle języków, skoro gracz nie może wybrać jednego z nich i musi zarejestrować nowe konto i tam kupić grę?

    Every combat encounter begins and ends with you crawling through a narrow passageway, gets annoying fast. Areas are small and lack branching paths for exploration. The puzzles are a downgrade from the last game, likely because of the small areas, brain dead ez.

    its a glorified ps4 port, also a good portion of the game is last of us boy edition and not a god of war game.

    최악의 게임.
    과대포장.
    스토리 빼곤 달라진게 없었다.
    이 게임은 그냥 갓오브워4이다.

    8 hours played and 3+ hours of those are only cinematics, a lot of bugs and the phisics are not smooth. I hope more of the game, sadly think that Cory Barlog need comeback to Santa Monica for the next gow

    Big dlc, clearly not the long-awaited sequel
    Terrible level design, invisible walls seriously ?
    Primary school story plot
    Nothing new

    ending is so rushed and badly designed that the entire time spent to playing the game becomes pointless retroactively

    This game should've been a DLC. This is nowhere near 70$ "brand new" title.. Not to mention the fact that half of the time I was watching a movie. Not a game... I'm fed up playing movies.....

    Boring boring boring…. Same repetitive Gameplay over and over doing the same thing, throwing axe at something then fight 10 enemies, repeat. Graphics and stiff gameplay still the same as 2018. Cringe dialogue like they all are marvel characters not mythical gods they talk like modern people it’s so bad. And story and writing is awful. No surprise everything nowadays is like this.

    This series is going off in a completely new and completely worse direction. The mass appeal of Kratos has always been that he's a man driven by vengeance and rage. In 2018 he was a man driven to protect his son, but wouldn't hesitate to let his rage out if need be. In 2022, he's soppy old man talking about feelings and hesitating to kill nearly everyone.

    The story this time around is laughably convoluted and the pacing is just atrocious. There are HOURS of unskippable walking sections and cutscenes that have you stuck listening to some of the sappiest dialogue imaginable. Sounds more like an ethics lecture for elementary school children than centuries old beings discussing the consequences of their actions.

    combat is still much the same as 2018 but feels more restrictive. A few late game abilities will reward you for just spamming the same move over and over.

    The creativity and roots of this franchise are gone and I dread the thought of Santa Monica's next game after all the smoke the critics have blown up their muffs.    … Expand

    A game that after 4 years looks like a dlc. He still has the same shoddy physics and no one in the press seems to care. A very similar combat with an annoying camera, the non-main characters have a poorer design and quality and the scenarios are continually hidden in fog, the ps5 does not contribute much with its ssd and does not have the possibility of ray tracing of any kind. theA game that after 4 years looks like a dlc.

    Any other game from another saga would have been criticized by the press with its continuity that doesn't even change in the hud. But they must have received many "love letters" from sony and I wouldn't be surprised if they give him the goty again after the robbery of rdr2 in 2018, the biggest robbery in history    … Expand

    Time to beat is 20-25 hours and just under 15.5 hours of that is cutscenes.
    They've Marvel-ified/Reddit-ified the story and characters even more than the previous game.
    The game is 100% a PS4 title in every way and the amount of reused assets is embarrassing.

    Basura infecta a la que nos tiene acostumbrados Sony últimamente. Indigno de los juegos originales. Nieblas por todas partes y muchos pasillos para tiempos de carga. Y encima de que no se puede matar a Atreus resulta que hay que controlarle.

    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.
