    El verdadero Goty 2023, una joya en todo aspecto, la historia no supera al anterior juego porque no se puede superar lo insuperable, igual de maravillosa, emotiva, desgarradora, el mejor juego del 2023, simplemente la maravilla hecha videojuego, sus misiones secundarias son incluso mejores, simplemente fantastico

    god of war is not that it is the worst game but we have to admit that it is quite weak the story is regular and the gameplay is totally the same as that of god of war 2018 quite repetitive
    -In conclusion
    -god of war 2018 8 / 10
    -god of war 2022 3 / 10

    Seriously? Black washing? I am a Dane and I don't one bit appreciate that nor would anyone like me. How about you make original black characters instead of being lazy and racist? The only thing as annoying as the woke trash is the endless puzzles. This was not much fun to play but I did see it through. It took a lot, though.

    You feel like a toddler getting constantly told what to do without the actual freedom nor the capacity to do anything you dare to expect, in a world that is oscillating between the bad fever dream of an immature fan of vikings and a B-movie fantasizing of getting an Oscar.

    > Movements are cumbersome, like driving a supertanker in a narrow corridor with a torticollis.

    > RPG elements are infuriating: you keep smashing ginormous treasure troves only to pick up a sad little sack of coins or a puny horn you're hesitating to decide where it should go in your body. When using multiple of them you feel better. I don't want to analyze this further.

    > The camera in combats insists on showing you the marvels of the cardboard decorations carefully crafted by the hundreds of artists the studio hired, all the while some generic variation of an enemy is hammering you joyously from behind.

    > The locking system is such a joke you might think you'd get better results if you asked your grandma to count jumping fleas. Oh it's there, ah no wait it jumped, I lost it. Too bad for you I guess, you've just sent your carefully built turbo-attack on a rock than doesn't even budge a millimeter.

    > There are puzzles and mysteries to solve. The only problem is that every single damn talking NPC around you insists to spoil you within the 5 seconds it takes to realize you're in front of a puzzle. Either this or you don't have the tool to solve this and you will have to navigate that whole entire level once again when you get finally get it - provided you remember where these puzzles are since the map is as useless as napkin with random signs scribbled it.

    > Apparently there's a story. Sure. Everyone had children with everyone, now the kids are becoming annoying and particularly Atreus, so everyone is cranky. Kratos being alone again is particularly in a bad mood, since he can't enjoy relaxing with Venus like he did before to forget he massacred his whole family, and has instead to travel half-naked in the snow with bears and bearded idiots to have his silly son finally shut up.

    And some people dare to compare this overproduced boomer game to a monument like Elden Ring? Not that Elden Ring does everything right far from it, but it's still comparing a vacation vlog to a Martin Scorsese movie.

    As always, your mileage may vary. Some may like it. If you're a retrogamer with bad glasses and memory for instance.

    I gave it a 3 because of the mysophobiac dwarf, but that's the only creative thing in this game.    … Expand

    The battle experience is way better than the last game while the storyline still seems a bit cheesy and annoying to me. And there are just too many things to collect if you want to get the platinum trophy.

    Mejora en todos los aspectos a la anterior entrega, las misiones secundarias tiene un nivel que no había visto, sólo en juegos como RDD2 y The Witcher 3, grandes sorpresas aún en contenido endgame, la jugabilidad puede parece muy continuista pero conforme avanzas va mejorando y cambiando, y lo que muchos esperaban, la historia cumple con creces.

    Ragnarok could be the same wonderful, top quality game as the 2018 GOW. But it’s not.
    - boring, unskippable cutscenes lasting several hours in total;
    - playing as Atreus is boring, cringe, and uneventful. I don’t give about a goddamn teenager rebellion – just give me God of War, you can kill Atreus and make all this about vengeance for all I care, but don’t force me to play a stupid kid.

    - relatively boring story, Kratos and Atreus don’t know what to do, they go from point A to point B without any plan or concept other than “Ragnarok is coming and we gotta stop Odin”.
    GOW Ragnarok is only a shell or a shadow of its predecessor. Technically it’s good – the fighting system is as good as in the previous game or even better. But that’s it. It’s just a big DLC.    … Expand

    This game is a masterwork that showcases Santa Monica's best work.
    This is one of the best games I have played
    The characters are distinct, and their side missions are amazing. This is an incredibly fantastic novel that had me hooked from beginning to end.

    God of War Ragnarok, as the fifth original version of the franchise and the second game based on the mythology of the North, as well as the ending of the mythology of the North, had a very heavy responsibility, and despite the pressures such as the release time and the one-year delay, the final result is so high-quality and attractive. Santa Monica should be appreciated

The story will touch anyone who has gone through at least one of the past parts and it's beautiful. SantaMonica was not let down again and proved that they could do the impossible!

    This game basically takes everything that worked with its predecessor and made all of it better. The only thing I would say isn't as good as the first game is the story because it isn't as focused, but even then it introduces you to far more areas of the map and the end has far more spectacle - 9.5/10

The story in the first game was so perfectly crafted, the story in the second was just a good story but was hard to exceed the first. Enemy variety even if it was increased compared to the first didn't really feel a lot better you know, I hoped at least to make the enemies specific in some areas but after they would introduce a new native enemy in a realm they would just casually add it later in another realm. The acting and OST are so well done holy hell, really an amazing performance from the cast. Great game, for me this was the Game of the Year of 2022.    … Expand

It's arguably one of the best linear story games ever made. Still, Ragnarök is by definition no better than its predecessor from 2018. The story feels less compact, intimate and focused due to the many perspectives. The gameplay isn’t varied despite the small tweaks and because of this the gameplay loop sooner or later gets a little in the way of excitement. You can clearly see when you are in an 'arena' to, again, overcome the next button smash encounter. Nevertheless, it remains special that it is precisely in this game that human emotions are portrayed so well. Every character feels incredibly human, it almost looks like a movie adaptation of a mythological script. Even kratos will face and show his emotions.

    It is clear that Santa Monica has created unforgettable boss battles, characters and conversations. Although the story felt too divided, which resulted in loss of interest in some segments of the story, it still feels I missed much within it because there is so much to take in. It makes sense to play the story again or explore all the side activities in the world to understand this adventure even more. One thing is certain; God of War Ragnarök fires a lot of epic moments at you in the 20 hour journey through the 9 realms.

    Pros:
    - Characters (Odin in particular)
    - Voice acting
    - Bombastic experience
    - Story details
    - Art design
    - Sound design/Sound track

Kratos´s and Freya´s character arcs aren´t great. The latter is too generic and fast paced, the former is messy at worst and did something pretty outrageous considering what went on the first game and who he is. Gameplay isn´t much of an improvement on 2018, the enemy variety is the one thing that prevents it from being boring for someone who played a lot of the last game.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. While the game is good and has its amazing moments, it lacks in story, combat and UI. Biggest problem I had was the directionless and unfocused story. This is my biggest problem with the game.

    Characters:
    Aatreus goes from wanting war to not wanting it to wanting it again for several times. While there is reason for it, the game doesnt let Aatreus sit with reason long enough to earn the change, specially when he changes his mind after short time. Biggest offender is when Brok dies, Aatreus talks about he wouldnt wanted war if this was the consequences of it, yet after creation of Ragnarok (Surtr) he start talking about how war is needed again.
    Most jarring change is Sif who does complete 180 without any good reason that is told in game.
    Ragnarok (Surtr) got in the way instead and Freyr died of unnecessary death bcs of it.

    Story:
    Story feels all over the place. I never understood what Kratos wanted to do, felt like he was doing what everyone told him to do. Which made the game like bunch of storys mushed together.
    Some parts where too long and unnecessary but other too short.

    For gods sake just talk. Lot of the problem comes from charcters not talking trough it. It is cheap way to make artificial conflict.

    Combat:
    Mob enemies has too much health, it just takes too long to kill them. They are also faster and stagger much less than the playable charcters.

    Companions doesnt do much.

    Bosses didnt have much of spectacle like 2018 had.

    UI and the gameplay:
    UI is a mess and its annoying to navigate through it. When you start your save file your placement is reset to start of mini area, while not that bad it is definitely annoying.    … Expand

    While I loved the first God of War, the sequel doesn't quite measure up. The graphics, acting and score are 10/10, the integration of the story and engine is perfect, but the story feels hurried, as if the game shipped with a middle segment cut out.

I can identify the moment when things went downhill for me - it's the beginning of the final arc, helpfully pre-announced by characters pointing out that this might be the last chance to do something.

    Up until that moment, the sense of wonder, exploration and a compelling story with nuanced characters was almost flawless.

    Afterwards, we see quite a bit deus ex mahina moments and unmotivated behavior by characters, for example a pointless giant battle that lacks setup and, quite frankly, motivation for the characters.

    It felt a bit like a let-down, following the tear-inducing and touching end of the first game, as if the directors had simply capped the series with a spare cliche ending from the box of big production games they kept in the closet.    … Expand

    Answer: 75 characters is between 10 words and 19 words with spaces included in the character count. If spaces are not included in the character count, then 75 characters is between 12 words and 25 words.

    If you dont care to make something enjoyable to play, and just want to tell a story, just make a movie next time. Youtube is making playing sony's games irrelevant. Just watch someone playing and save your money. Looks like another assassins cringe series is born. And kratos have a severe case of amnesia as he forgot everything he learned from the previous game.

    The maturity in the writing of the story and the characters was the last thing I expected to be able leap forward from God of War 2018. The characters and the story are both written so intelligently and empathetically that there are even lessons you can learn from it. The graphics has the same effect that recent PS5 releases such as Last of Us Part 1 has in that it is so beautiful your brain cannot even completely process it. The soundtrack can barely be called a video game soundtrack because it is essentially scored like a film and in the most epic and emotional way that will take you from hyped to being in tears.

    Everything in Ragnarok combined gives you an experience that you can compare to the greatest blockbusters in movie history. If God of War Ragnarok was a film, it would still sit next to my favourites.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I waited for this title the moment God of War (2018) came out. Before buying it I knew this game was going to be perfect, and my expectations were high. Of course, it shattered them. Within the first hour, the game is already trying to invoke tears into my eyes with the death of Atreus' wolf. Every part of this game is compelling. You can tell other people agree when over 10% of the people who played it have the platinum. There's always something to do, even when it can get tedious sometimes. My only problem with it was the fact that every time I play this, it overheats my PS5. Regardless if i wipe it down or lay it vertical. This may be a design flaw itself or the game is so intricate that even the 5th generation of console can't handle it.

I'm sorry, but whoever came up with these didn't want players to have a challenge, but a reason to throw their computer or controller out the goddamn window.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. God of War Ragnarok was a game that completely sold me in the beginning but later lost me a bit towards the end. The whole game felt like trying to cram in every story element meant for 3 games into one game. As the game progressed, it was rushed and came to an unsatisfying conclusion to the Norse saga.

    While outstanding, the gameplay is still almost the same as the 2018 version, and although the devs mentioned that they will keep the same engine, it would've been nice with upgraded gimmicks of puzzles, attacks, etc. However, the gameplay is not much of an issue since the gameplay for God of War 2018 was good, and bringing something good into another thing remains the same.

    The most important reason why I gave my score is because of the story. For a game adapted from Norse mythology, the story is very small and lacks the variety of the original myth and the number of characters. We only see a handful of Norse gods and we get to fight only three of them. The Ragnarok event is also underwhelming. Although the story gives a reasonable excuse as to why it ended so quickly, it could have stretched out the literal war against the Aesir. If the game took some of the minutes given to Iron Wood and put them into Ragnarok, it could've saved it from being this underwhelming.

    In conclusion, while the game aspect of God of War Ragnarok was great, the story and the pacing really made the experience very mediocre. With the lack of pacing and good storytelling, this game makes the Norse saga as a whole more of a long DLC of 2018 than anything. I would've greatly preferred this saga be a trilogy than a duology and I expect this series to do so in the next saga.    … Expand

The game's side quests were also very good; most quests had as much depth and world building as the main story, which is good. Although there are one or two side quests that are just you running around finding something but that is my only real complaint with the game. One of the best parts was the beautiful environments that you could see around all nine of the Norse realms from the deserts of Alfheim to the jungles of vanaheim all the realms are special in their own way. Another thing I liked was the villains of the game. At one point I ended up somewhat sympathizing with the villains. But just a bit later the game made me feel bad for sympathizing with the villains by showing me how horrible people they were. And even after the main story was finished I kept on coming back to find out more about the story and explore all nine realms And I might even 100% the game later on.

    It's unbelievable how someone green lights a weak story like that to a blockbuster powerhouse game as GoW. No god acts like they're immortal mytholocgical beings, all of them sounds and acts like the average north american you see in a B movie. Childish and shallow dialogues, let alone motivations. Freyr is a lowly guerrilla leader that uses **** explosives (!?) to fight undying asgardian einherjars.
    Odin is nothing more than a common american gangster.
    Thor is a crying drunk depressed because (?) *reasons*
    And the final battle, omg, motivated by vengeance - as Kratos himself states multiple times in the 5 minutes before going to to war - for the recently murdered main character. After 30 hs of gameplay, the final battle motivation is the death of our buddy that just died for no reason at all. Almost everything that happened in the 30 previous hours is simply a inconsequential filler.    … Expand

The storyline is epic, and the characters are interesting, especially Thor and Odin. It took me 72 hours on Give Me God of War difficulty to do everything, so it's also reasonably lengthy.

    There are two reasons Ragnarok isn't 10/10. First, it's a retread of old ground that seems familiar. The gameplay is superb, but it's all something we've seen before.

    The second reason I can't give it the highest score is that GoW:Ragnarok has contracted a severe case of JRPG-itis for a lack of a better term. The game has way too many drawn-out cutscenes that are supposed to be moving, but end up being melodramatic in the extreme and very wordy, breaching the etiquette of showing and not telling. I'm not against wordy, but I am when it's mostly just to convey mawkish sentiment and after-school special preaching. There's an entire chapter where Atreus has a pseudo-romantic adventure which was cringy. The nuanced storytelling and beautifully realized subtle relationship between Kratos' stoicism and Atreus' idealism of the first game has been replaced with cheap moralizing and tedious hand-wringing and "I love you" monologs. Characters can't stop stop blubbering, and everyone has some secret tragedy that they just have to blurt out like a Lifetime movie in a moment of vulnerability. This is manipulative hack-writing 101, and the shift in tone is inappropriate for a God of War game.    … Expand

The nine realms are a great world to traverse in. My favorite was Vanaheim. I would say almost everything in this game is superb besides a small but annoying problem with the combat, that sometimes you are stuck in an attack animation and the enemy keeps on his attack which makes it feel just stupid and not fair, But this is so small I wouldn't put a knock on the game over it. A masterpiece and highly reccomended!… Expand

    EPICO, es la palabra justa para definir este juego. Me recuerda mucho a lo que fue Gow 2 en la saga griega. Ya que al igual que el primer Gow en 2005 (gran juego e inicio de la saga), pero el 2 lo mejoró TODO. Mejoró en combate, cantidad de jefes, mini jefes, graficos, etc, haciendo que sea realmente una experiencia brutal.

    Gracias Santa Monica por este excelente juego y por esta gran saga, una de las sagas mas espectaculares en la historia de los videojuegos. Te amo Kratos!!!    … Expand

    This game came with my PS5 when I bought it new. I have never played a GOW title in the past so being thrown directly into the lore without any backstory is a bit jarring. I've put in 3 hours thus far and it feels like a movie that wants to be a video game. I seriously put my controller down anytime there is a cut scene.

I've put in 3 hours thus far and it feels like a movie that wants to be a video game. I seriously put my controller down anytime there is a cut scene. Any game that makes me want to put the controller down isn't good. It may be the worst voice acting I've ever encountered, I can barely understand Kratos and Odin sounds like a random guy from New York, not very immersive.
    I have no emotional connection to the character and therefore no reason to care if I die or fail a mission. I am not motivated to continue playing this game and am not encouraged that everyone thinks this a good title. Are there no good games on this platform? Should I just return the PS5?    … Expand

    A sequel that adds almost nothing to the original, and does little to address the faults its predecessor.

    Graphically its wildly uneven. Kratos is one of the best animated characters I've seen in a video game, but any flashback scenes with his wife look like he's speaking to a PS3 character. The writing is weak. Atreaus/Loki is done an injustice. You could tie yourself in knots    A sequel that adds almost nothing to the original, and does little to address the faults its predecessor.

    Graphically its wildly uneven. Kratos is one of the best animated characters I've seen in a video game, but any flashback scenes with his wife look like he's speaking to a PS3 character.

    The writing is weak. Atreaus/Loki is done an injustice. You could tie yourself in knots trying to make sense of his actions and motivations if you were in a forgiving mood, but the game fails to illustrate him as a rational actor. A central plot tension coming from a totally artificial reluctance from one character to explain what he's doing, "It's... complicated" *sigh*. New additions to Kratos' posse grate. The smart alec squirrel wandered out of a forgotten kids show, and the dwarf with the caricatured Southern American accent jars with the world. Kratos has never been funnier, with the writers and Christopher Judge demonstrating a real understanding of the character and using that for laughs that don't take you out of the story, but everyone else is a trite Joss Whedon quip machine.

    Level design and traversal are the games weakest areas. The designers have saddled Kratos with a serious case of White Boys Can't Jump. You'll feel incredibly restricted in how you traverse the environment in a way that isn't true to the character. The chest is right there, but this gap isn't programmed to allow a jump, sorry. The game feels on rails and the issue becomes more apparent as you revisit areas you've since cleared of enemies and have to slowly squeeze through gaps or shimmy across ledges while the next corridor loads. Completionists in particular are in for tedium.

    Combat has enough satisfying depth to reward high skill players, but the RPG elements are a distraction with few making a meaningful addition to combat.    … Expand

    So beat GoW 2018 and rolled right into this bad idea the menu felt downgraded visually and combat did feel a natural 2018 was great but more of the same with snow and dust effects

    GOTY. Loved it and platinumed it. It was even better than 2016, which is also one of my favorite games of all time.

    This is a clunky action game where common enemies are threatening damage sponges for you, the god of war. Compared to the previous God of War games this is a step up in graphics and polish, but a huge step back in gameplay and story. I returned it to the library after several hours.

    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.

    The combat is beefy enough to carry you through the slower stretches, but even when you're lopping heads off dragons it can feel like what you're really killing is time. [Issue#379, p.100]
