    The game is far from the that great as someone says it is. Very overrated. Graphics and gameplay are average at best. Look at Elden Ring.

    well deserved. I have to change my opinion from 3/10 to 7/10. It feels like there are 2 teams building this game. After steel wood it changes dramatically. below my old opinion, after 10-12hrs of gameplay. Above is updated after that time. Graphic: 6/10 Music: 6/10 Gameplay: 8/10 (was 2/10) Very disappointing.

    Very disappointing. Mechanically it’s rather regressive. Puzzles are dumbed-down. Story is stupid. Monsters aren’t much better than 2018. World is clunky. Beautiful but unusable. But on sale if you want continuation of 2018, otherwise play gow2018 instead. This one is really bad.

    Hated it, too much repetitive game play, too much storyline, just let me play it. Graphically it's good hence 2 and not 0

    If it ain't broke don't fix it would apply here, but not only did they keep aspects of what I liked from the previous game, but everything has been massively improved. I can't believe this series just keeps getting better and better. I just finished my first playthrough and I can't wait to play it again

    Masterpiece! The game is better in every single way: enemies, places to visit, storytelling etc. If there's a game that deserves your money and time it's god of war Ragnarok. I was afraid of what they were aiming but it's better than anything I could imagine.

    Excelente juego que mejora al juego anterior en todos los aspectos, la jugabilidad es entretenida y adictiva; excelente direccion de arte en cada uno de los escenarios, sonido impecable y mas con la mejora del sonido 3D, la historia logra transmitir muchas emociones aun mas si eres fan de la saga

    el comienzo es un juego excelente, las primeras horas están llenas de acción y escenas

    el comienzo es un juego excelente, las primeras horas están llenas de acción y escenas increíbles. Ragnarök es mucho mejor que el anterior: mucha más variedad de enemigos y zonas, su estilo de combate es más pulido y se siente excelente, justo lo que debe ser una secuela. Uno de los mejores juegos creados en lo que va de la década e incluso podría decir que de la historia, Santa Monica Studio nunca decepciona.

    Good game but it pales in comparison to God Of War 2018. Story is.. okay. Same combat with just a tiny difference here and there. Dialog is okay as well. Just different levels form the 2018 one.

    Metacritic debería de implementar un sistema para que solo las personas que han jugado el juego puedan votar, allí se mirarían las notas reales y no la de haters frustados. Cualquiera que ha jugado GOWR sabe perfectamente que este juego no es de 0.

    Por favor, no seamos toxicos ni haters. El review bombing es asqueroso e inmaduro. Le doy 10 puntos porque el GOW 2018 ya me encantó antes,

    Por favor, no seamos toxicos ni haters. El review bombing es asqueroso e inmaduro. Le doy 10 puntos porque el GOW 2018 ya me encantó antes, este lleva esa fórmula a otro nivel, mejora lo que ya teníamos, y nos da lo que al juego anterior le faltaba. El combate se ha pulido, hay más variedad de enemigos y jefes y matarlos es muy satisfactorio, gráficamente es majestuoso, sobre todo en PS5 y la historia es atrapante y cautivadora.

    Completed the game in 35 hours. I plan to continue traveling through the worlds of this game and find everything. Thank you Santa Monica for a great story continuation. I will go through this story together with part of 2018 more than once. About the claims, they are. But they are insignificant, I thought the soundtrack at the beginning of the game was slightly familiar. Passages throughCompleted the game in 35 hours.

But they are insignificant, I thought the soundtrack at the beginning of the game was slightly familiar. Passages through narrow slits are the trouble of PS4, it's a pity that the game was made not only for PS5. Otherwise, you gave me exactly what I wanted. a wonderful plot, the dynamics of battles, saturated worlds. Expand

    bad writing, and boring gameplay with too much cut scenes that add nothing to the experience, this is a really lazy game, avoid this at all costs

    Absolute masterpiece. It’s a triumph for videogames. I bet we won’t get a similar game like this anytime soon. Try to go in completely blind! Sony SantaMonica did it again

    This is how you make a video game. Wow developers need to take notes. Games today release so broken and unfinished well not God of War Ragnarok. Story is incredible, graphics are next gen, characters and voice acting are perfect, the gameplay is as good as always. Way to knock this out of the park. 10/10

    De los mejores juegos de todos los tiempos, buena banda sonora, buenos graficos, enemigos variados, una Muy buena historia.
    Realmente me encanta la evolucion de lo que una vez fue un personaje muy cruel y despiadado que no le importaba nada, a uno que es capaz de proteger con su vida lo que le importa y su desarrollo en esta saga fue de los mas espléndido, sinceramente 10/10

    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.
