God of War Ragnarök

The base game is exceptional and added a lot to 2018 (there are now more then like 4 bosses). The story conclusion was great and I loved how everything went down. The Ragnarok DLC is a great rouge-like and my god the MUSIC is special, hearing "Master Thyself" made me incredibly happy and that ending that made me tear up. What an exceptional game.

tem que god of war, muito bom jogo

Mükemmel

It's a very beautiful game with great plot, the gameplay has improved and the combat is more interesting. But there are things that are actually annoying during the gameplay, which imo are a huge downgrade from 2018. 1. Dialogues: The dialogue writing (especially the ones that happens out of the cutscenes) is just sub-par. Many dialogues are neither meaningful to the plot nor helpful to character development. It's awfully stuffed throughout the gameplay that actually distracts me a lot, especially in scenes that are serene, or deeply emotional, or thoughtful. GoW 2018 has so many moments that the brief interactions between Kratos and Mimir/Atreus that brought depth and humor into the convo. But it's just not here in Ragnarok. It's replaced by constant talking things that don't promote ANYTHING. I still feel the 2018 level of profound writing in Kratos scenes, but the Atreus scenes' dialogue design is very disappointing. It lacks depth or meaning, I even feel bad for not being able to bond with Atreus. 2. Plot writing: I enjoy the general plot, but the pace is horrible and thus the gameplay feels bad. Ever since Atreus goes to Ironwood, the main story stays very fragmented, jumping from character to character. It was totally fine when you watch the plot only, but as in gameplay it feels very bad. There's no consistency. It's genuinely confusing, and you don't get the immersive bond with either Kratos or Atreus. Also, I actually hate it when the development of the main character becomes a "family therapy" -- definitely not because it's a bad theme, but because it's shoved down the throat of the player by writing very mundane (even tasteless) dialogues in a quest which serves no other meaningful purpose. It presumes the low emotional capacity of the player, it totally contradicts both the intelligence Atreus has and the thoughtfulness Kratos has. It is so childish that it becomes unbearable to some point. - There are some plots and dialogues that are so superior to others, so beautifully written, performed, integrated. Kratos, Sindri, Freya, Brok, they all have scenes that moved me deeply. Comparingly, there are scenes that are so horrible, mostly the Atreus solo ones. I get even confused why the disparity is so huge. 3. Fantasy? Culture-based? I'm not trying to be woke, it just .... feels off. I know it's a fantasy game, that everyone speaks perfect English is no different from speaking with an accent. But it turns out, Mimir feels like the only one who actually belongs to the Norse mythology. I can't say for most people, but it surely does make it harder for me to bond with the story. In some ways, I think the Nordic culture is being "Americanized". I'm watching people using a Nordic makeup to perform Nordic stories. It's just strange. I hope when Laufey comes out, with many patheons merged into one in the afterlife, we could see more cultural presentation with their characteristic faces, clothes, and VOICES. I would recommend this game if I hadn't played 2018. But compared to 2018, it upgraded some and downgraded some. Which, in my opinion, downgraded more because of the less immersive experience in general.

beautiful gameplay and a masterpiece of a story

Easily one of my favourite games of all time. Even after 100% completion I’m sad it’s over, which speaks for itself.

good game

儿子的剧情简直无聊又臭又长，玩过一周目再去玩二周目直接劝退不想玩了

25 hours and i still don't know when the games ends

Боевка вообще не чувствуется, бог войны, нет я повторюсь, БОГ ВОЙНЫ, вязнет в каждом мобе на 20+ ударов, а школьник с луком наносит больше урона балансу врага, чем оружие, убившее кучу богов. Кстати в игре отсутствует какая-либо вменяемость и индикация станлоков у врага, так что сраный драугр может посреди вашей комбухи влепить тычку на половину здоровья Враги нападают со всех сторон, вместо того, чтобы просто рубить всех в капусту, ты смотришь в левый нижний угол как бы к тебе со спины не подошли Рунические атаки не дают неуязвимости и кастуются три года, а любой пропущенный удар стоит половины здоровья. Сонигои скажут: "ну значит надо сначала застанить врага, потом в стан кастовать", а я скажу — сонигоям не в первой терпеть мочу на лице от игры, а нормальные люди хотят грамотный микс из реактивного и проактивного геймплея и ощущение того, что бой зависит от тебя и твоих решений, а не спарировать 20 атак от 15 драугров, чтобы потом нанести 10 урона (у рядового моба 100 хп) Ну и в целом ссал на лицо каждому сонигою, что тут, что в Цусиме, боевка отвратная, притом что цусиму даже слешером назвать нельзя. А я повелся и обе игры купил и прошел на харде, вот и думайте.
