Apr 26, 2018My respects to the authors of this game. A great deal of work has been done. Stunning graphics, interesting plot. Only for the sake of this game already have to run to the store and buy ps4. I look forward to continuing. Keep it up!

Apr 20, 2018É incrível como uma série como GOD OF WAR conseguiu se reinventar e trazer uma experiencia totalmente nova para os jogadores, assim como Zelda e Mario a franquia não ficou parada no tempo...um belo trabalho Santa Monica S junto com a Sony!

May 19, 2018Ni la sombra de que lo eran las entregas pasadas... demasiado repetitiva y monótona la jugabilidad... la historia es muy predecible en todo momento.

Jul 28, 2018One word: BORING. I suggest that it be played for an hour before going to bed, so it will help you relax and sleep well. Repetitive combats and poor graphics. Inexplicable hype. Certainly the disappointment of the year.
-
Apr 22, 2018Not that special and way too over hyped. Also the trend to name a sequel as the first is the most stupid thing in this century.
Anyway if you never played a GoW it's a good start, but i don't think you will feel comfortable with the first ones since it's still quite different. -
Apr 24, 2018No customization other than some weapon and armor options, too many duplicate mobs, after a while it's get boring. Atreus is really annoying and really don't know who want to babysit a kid like that.
Overall it's a overrated game for the asking price. Game is linear, no reason to play after you finish the game. It would be ok if it was $30. -
Aug 20, 2018Yes, the graphics are stunning and the storyline was promising. But the gameplay is not at all what I expected it to be. Very limited moveset and very little variety in the enemies you encounter. All around I was very disappointed with the result of the game.

Feb 27, 2019Jogo horrível não vale 1 centavo... Mataram a originalidade do jogo. Como podem lançár um game de ação se o personagem nem pula. A sony está cada vez mais preguiçosa e lança apenas jogos estilo filme onde se joga apenas apertando apenas 1 botão e vai passando toda história do jogo ate zerar em pouquíssimas horas...lamentável...

May 2, 2018Zeer eentonig spel. Ik verveelde me de hele tijd en ik ben boos dat Sony me voor zo'n 70 euro, een bodemloze schaamteloos!
-
Feb 6, 2019How could you downgrade this from the first game! I guess it could be due to repetetive gameplay but seriously I regret buying this stupid game. You've lost a fan, zombie labs.

Jan 27, 2019Overrated but still fun. Just be prepared to grind for hours to get over that progression barrier. I got way too bored with the grinding to bother finishing this game.
tl;dr:
Good game, not worth the grind though -
Sep 17, 2018This is not God of war, it has 8 hours only of gameplay and 8 hours of movies, the downgrade in graphics are terrible, the background graphics are bery blurred or with a lot of fog to hide the lack of power for the Ps4 to process it. Very disappointing.

Apr 28, 2018People too oblivious and just blindly go gaga for this game, crappy dodge mechanic, ridiculous grind in order to progress, or just get roflstomped on enemy bosses. Took a good game and decided to add crap mechanics to at depth gameplay. Stuff that was not needed in the game.
-
Feb 8, 2019Унылые драки. Унылые ребусы. Жалею о потраченных деньгах.
-
Aug 5, 2018Nice graphics, but gameplay is the most important thing in a videogame and the gameplay here is just poor. Go pick up Devil May Cry , Ninja Gaiden , Bayonetta , Metal Gear Rising because those games are all 10/10s.

Feb 6, 2019The story is less interesting, enemies are repetitive and also they killed God of War franchise. overall this game its so lackluster, and wait for the paid content lol
-
Dec 9, 2018Pésimo, mucho gráfico pero poco la jugabilidad que caracteriza a un god of war, demasiada cinematica que rompe con la fluidez
-
May 26, 2018Everyone who is a fan. And he went through all the previous parts of GOW, he boldly say that this is not God of War !!! Yes, the graphics sound cool. But nothing else. The mechanics of the game are fatal !!! I am a fan of GOW and not Darksouls or other crap of this type.

May 21, 2018It's a good game but it's not God of War anymore, I hope the sequel will be more action orientated.
-
Apr 25, 2018This game is actually just correct or not so good. Repetitive fights. Almosts no boss fights (1 boss declined 10 time ???? nah....).
All the reviews giving this game 10/10 are pbly business/sellouts partnership.
So be careful of that. -
Dec 23, 2018What does this game do better than any other action adventure game? The dynamic between Kratos and Atreus is so forced and it seaps into every other aspect of the game from its gameplay, music to its story.
They made it unnecessarily deep. There was nothing wrong with the arcadey gameplay of God of War 1-3. -

Nov 16, 2018This is most disappointment 2018. Boring boat gameplay, backtracking, none gore, terrible level design, very bad graphic sudennly looks like PS2 era. Why second plan is so blurry?
-
Mar 19, 2019Je suis très déçu par la conception du jeu et espère que sony fera mieux la prochaine fois.
-
Mar 16, 2019Ich mag zwar die cinematischen 30 Bilder die Sekunde und gute Grafik aber spielerisch hat mich God of War doch sehr enttäuscht als großer Playstation Fan der ersten Stunde hatte ich wesentlich höhere Erwartungen.

Jul 9, 2018Most overrated game ever. Gave up half way through once I realised it wasn't going to live up to all of the hyperbole or even be fun. Metal Gear Survive is way better!!

Apr 23, 2018what happened to Kratos' fiery temper? why is he acting like a some sort of silent monk now...what happened to his arrogance and confidence. The story was horrible with no probability. almost felt like I was playing lesser dark soul 3

May 1, 2018This is one of the best game ever. I experienced every system in the game, and there are nothing new in the game. But Balance, between contents and scenario, is amazing more than Last of us. It is perfect for me, and I can recommend this game who love story-based game or action game.

Apr 28, 2018Very overrated. I'm not sure the current generation of video game fans actually know what a good game is any more. Graphics are good in places though.

May 4, 2018Jefes parecen repetitivos
Faltan mas Jefes
Las animaciones de ejecución pueden resultar repetitivas
Camara erratica y molesta
Una exploración que puede tornarse repetitiva.
Caída de frame y glitchs ocasionales -

Apr 29, 2018This game is beautiful but the gameplay is just terrible compared to the original. Horrible camera, crappy progression system, boring combat (just throwing axes and hiding behind shields). A MASSIVE disappointment.

Apr 27, 2018The downgrade is epic in this one and the game is kinda short for all the noise is has generated around. For a regular game is OK, but for a Sony exclusive and for a God Of War is a bit dissapointing.

Feb 3, 2022They ruined the game with the updates.
Terrible illumination
Frame-rate at 15 constantly.
Pixelated everywhere.
Sometimes looks like a PS2 game.
Update 03/02/2022: They fixed the game and now in PC looks amazing!! -
Apr 25, 2018Not God of War anymore. I just see a fusion of The Last of Us and Dark Souls with less weapons. Why did they have to put Kratos in here? As a new Ip it would have been a decent game for me, but calling this GOD OF WAR? You can't even jump.

May 20, 2018The game is full of errors, does not offer online multiplayer mode, does not meet the 35 hours promised in campaign mode, packed with QTE's, more than 50% of the game is cutscene and is a disappointment for fans of the franchise ...
-
Apr 30, 2018Core Gameplay has been chanced to an interactive baby movie. Too much marketing and media attention went to this mediocre game. I don't understand that people call this the best game ever, the gameplay isn't that great.

Apr 21, 2018I spent almost twice as long watching this play than i did playing the game. It tried really hard to make me care about the child but at the end of the day it wasn't that long nor engaging with the cut-scene breaks.

LEVEL (Czech Republic)Sep 13, 2018The return of the furious Spartan warrior was made well. God of War is already a great contender for game of the year and you shouldn't miss it. [Issue#285]

CD-ActionJul 6, 2018Cory Barlog and his team achieved what many thought impossible – despite having changed almost everything Santa Monica managed to preserve that elusive spark that makes God of War game feel like a God of War game. They created one of the defining titles of the current generation and a technical marvel whose stunning beauty in motion words cannot describe. And there’s one more thing. Barlog’s touching reaction to his masterpiece’s scores shows that even in the world of huge budgets, micropayments, loot boxes and sales forecasts there still is a place for artists who pour their hearts into their work. We need someone to remind us of that once in a while. [06/2018, p.38]

Jun 7, 2018Where most games excel in one single area, God of War manages to deliver on every front, providing players with one of the best experiences we’ve seen so far this generation.
