God of War
Description
Enter the Norse realm
His vengeance against the Gods of Olympus years behind him, Kratos now lives as a man in the realm of Norse Gods and monsters. It is in this harsh, unforgiving world that he must fight to survive… and teach his son to do the same.
Grasp a second chance
Kratos is a father again. As mentor and protector to Atreus, a son determined to earn his respect, he is forced to deal with and control the rage that has long defined him while out in a very dangerous world with his son.
Journey to a dark, elemental world of fearsome creatures
From the marble and columns of ornate Olympus to the gritty forests, mountains and caves of pre-Viking Norse lore, this is a distinctly new realm with its own pantheon of creatures, monsters and gods.
Engage in visceral, physical combat
With an over the shoulder camera that brings the player closer to the action than ever before, fights in God of War™ mirror the pantheon of Norse creatures Kratos will face: grand, gritty and grueling. A new main weapon and new abilities retain the defining spirit of the God of War series while presenting a vision of conflict that forges new ground in the genre.

Sony Santa Monica has evolved Kratos in God of War and in the process delivered a technical and narrative showpiece that any PS4 fan should be proud of.

Great action with questionable designs
The action part is great with lots of tools to use and they do make you feel so powerful as you progress through the game! There are also some good endgame contents like dungeons and bosses which for me is essential to an action game. However, there are some design choices that I am personally not a fan of: -Too many map puzzles that drag the pacing of the game. -Too much walking that makes the game like a walking simulator sometimes. If you like puzzles and enjoying beautiful scenery walking around then those are not a big problem but if you want pure action you will get frustrated quite often by the pacing.

The most overrated title ever?
Where to begin. The graphics are pretty but extremely unreactionary. An example of this is when you are in the boat and the water doesn't react and the boat moves extremely awkward and unrealistically. I enjoyed Dante's inferno and since I have never been a playstation guy I have always missed God of War... until now. I really enjoy mythology so all signs pointed towards me liking this more than Dante's inferno. That couldn't be further from the truth. This game is littered with BORING awful puzzles and redundant back tracking. It sucks all the momentum right out of the game as I couldn't stand to play this game for more than an hour before getting tired and extremely bored. The gameplay is repetitive and boring and the monster diversity is very limited which is odd for a game based on mythology. Solve a boring puzzle, get useless loot, fight boring monsters, be a step dad, rinse and repeat. Yes, you are guiding some dumb little kid the entire game and it adds absolutely NOTHING. He "helps" in combat by firing useless arrows (at your command, basically an extension of Kratos and basically has no AI) He also "helps" by drawing the attention of enemies and then crying about it. Then he "helps" you reach the next area by jumping up somewhere and dropping a ladder for you or something along the line but he is painfully annoying and completely retracts from the "experience." You play as the god of war, someone who can move mountains and kill insane creatures of mythology but when it comes to actually combat your character is weak as hell. There is no sense of progression and the combat and combos are painfully boring. The only thing stopping me from giving this 1 star is the graphics and voice acting. Kratos looks and sounds the part but the devs completely laid an egg when it comes to execusion. Don't believe the hype this game is beyond brutal. There are a thousand better games out there, do yourself a favor and save your money, I wish I did.

Just a decent game, not great
This game has one of the worst leveling systems on any RPG I have ever played. The first 7-8 hours of the game are brutal because the leveling system purposely handicaps you. You get no upgrade or level up until this point, while the enemies are unrelenting. Then all of a sudden, when at the 8 hr mark, you move up 3-4 levels in an instant which finally unlocks the skill tree. But guess what, from here on you level up quicker and more skills become available. You end up with a situation where there are so many new key sequences to remember, but not enough time for the muscle memory to kick in. Also, now the game's difficulty suddenly shifts from brutal to manageable/easy. As I mentioned at the beginning, the worst leveling system ever. Second, Kratos has been stripped of all personality. I played the old GOW games just a bit, and even in that short time I thought he was a badass and had a wickedly cool personality. You as the gamer felt like a god. Now, you get a weeping, mumbling and grumbling guy with a dad bod that goes around doing things. The axe is such a weak ass weapon, it feels like all the enemies are gods and Kratos is just a dad with a stick. Pretty pathetic. In fact, his unarmed fists are more powerful than his axe. Immersion breaking. Some of the levels are simply confusing, as you go into a parallel world and at that point the environments resemble a sci-fi feeling like Mass Effect. The game design idea of portals and parallel worlds are not so interesting to me. It's a cheap way to introduce lore breaking environments. On the bright side, the visuals and story are pretty good, and once you level up a bit the game is fun, however nothing very memorable. I stopped playing after a while because it wasn't living up to the hype.

New standard for the quality of PC ports
Mouse pointer/cursor support, precise keyboard+mouse controls, many meaningful graphic settings, 21:9 support. This port is so amazingy advanced and detailed that it will take your breath away! I just miss two settings - antialliasing and field of view. If Sony is able to make such a (almost) perfect port, why other AAA companies are not?! I am looking at you Square Enix and your pitiful attempts like for example Final Fantasy VII Remake Integrade. Square, you can grab all your PC games and stick them up your ass! Compared to the quality of God of War they are rubbish. Since this game every other PC port will be measured by the quality of God of War. When it comes to the game itself, it is a fantastic piece of art. Amazing chamber story about a man and his son traveling to the peak of the highest mountain in Midgar. Nothing else. This game is just about this - about a will to survive, to fight and about the beaty of nature. In this game Kratos becames the best videogame hero and Atreus is a fantastic sidekick. He is delicate and humble. Gameplay-wise, God of War is somewhere between a Souls game and a typical hack and slash game. I recommend to play it on the highest difficulty as God of War is best when it becomes a challenge for the player. Level design-wise, God of War is metroidvania with individual paths designed in a linear fashion but with many dead and blind ends with various treasures. The role-playing system works and it is nicely detailed when it comes to statistics - you can focus on raw strength or "magic" runes.
