After completing the main storyline, I can confidently say that it was a remarkable journey. To be honest, I wasn’t expecting this game to be as good and astonishing as it turned out to be. When I bought it, I thought it was just another story about a god-killer. In reality, it turned out to be an amazing reboot of the series, offering more emotional depth than any of the previous games — and, frankly, more than most games overall. This God of War takes a very different approach compared to its predecessors. While the earlier games focused on Kratos destroying everything and everyone in his path, this installment delves into themes of remorse, redemption and reckoning with the past. Instead of merely slaying another god (or gods), the story revolves around the father-son dynamic, and the developers handled it masterfully, or at least to a very high standard. The main storyline kept me hooked throughout, and at no point did I feel the urge to stop playing or just drop the game. The graphics are stunning, even when compared to newer titles, and the gameplay holds its own. While I can’t say the gameplay is entirely without flaws, these minor drawbacks don’t detract from the overall experience. I particularly appreciated how Santa Monica Studio crafted a combat system that’s simple yet engaging, epic without feeling overwhelming. I would also like to point out a sense of cyclicality that some players might notice. There aren’t that many enemy types in the game (aside from the main bosses), and while certain elements are varied in some ways, the core remains the same. However, the game manages to counterbalance this repetition effectively, which is quite satisfying and ensures it doesn’t become a significant drawback for the majority of players. In conclusion, I’d say this game is absolutely worth everyone’s attention. God of War has rightfully earned its accolades (though I wouldn’t rank it above RDR2 in terms of Game of the Year). If you’ve ever considered trying it, I highly recommend at least giving it a shot.

Incredible game but SHOULD NOT BE STEAM DECK VERIFIED. There is a memory leak that causes the game to crash every time RAM hits ~14gb. You can lower the quality on a number of settings so that it takes longer to hit 14gb, but the game will still crash every 40 mins to an hour. I’ve played this game before on PlayStation and it was a much better experience because there’s no memory leak/no crashing.

I like that Sony finally got a bit over their "only console" mentality, even if pc gamers have to wait much longer... I'm happy to finally see some of the big games on pc. Since God of War was very well received, my expectations were high, but the game managed to meet most of them. I loved the story, the characters and the worldbuildung. The relation and it's developtment, between Kratos and his son is really well done and you want to know, how everything will continue. In the world you have many interesting places to visit and the world get's bigger with each act (the idea with the snake is really cool). So there is slways something new to see and explore. The gameplay was not perfect for me, but that's probably, because I'm just not a big fan of the combat system. I couldn't get into it, but since I was carring much for the story than the gameplay, it was not really an issue. I really liked it and look foreward to play Ragnarok. 9/10
