Quick Sum-Up In-depth analysis further down. No AI was used to write this review. 🟩 Pros 🟩 • Well-written, engaging plot, alongside a cast of memorable characters that have distinct identity, great acting, and solid development as events unfold. • Superb combat system: it has many build choices, abilities and mechanical diversity, on top of varied enemies and unique bosses. It balances player skill and optimized loadouts very well. • Rewarding exploration with tons of side areas, secret locations and meaningful backtracking to obtain unique items and face hidden challenges. • Excellent boss design, with dozens of unique foes that evolve movesets as they get damaged, have special mechanics, and are a formidable challenge on the hardest setting. 🟥 Cons 🟥 • The highest difficulty scales enemies way above your level randomly during battles: they become stagger-resistant HP sponges that can often two-shot you. Textbook artificial difficulty. • Parrying is generally unrewarding until you acquire mid to late game buffs to enhance it. It’s not worth the risk unless you make a specific build around it. • The backtracking to 100% everything can be tedious due to the high amount of slow area transitions, and lack of fast travel in many locations. 🟨 Bugs / Issues 🟨 • Very rare crashes to desktop (2 in 80+ hours) in a specific area. • Using Steam Input with a DualSense controller may cause it to work incorrectly. Content & Replay Value: It took me 82 hours to complete GOW:R on the hardest difficulty, taking considerable extra time to 100% everything, except the DLC because I dislike roguelites; there’s more content if you want to play that, though. Aside from NG+ which unlocks some new upgrades and items, all other content is linear; there’s no reason to replay. Is it worth buying? Absolutely. GOW:R has plenty of interesting content to go through and a satisfying progression system. It’s worth buying for full price, especially for fans of the saga and third-person action enjoyers in general. Verdict: Excellent A great sequel for the reboot series, that expands lore, combat mechanics and gameplay features compared to its prequel, while retaining the same feel with very few downsides. [url=https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2548409603]Rating Chart Thanks for reading up to this point! Consider checking out and following my Curator, [url=https://store.steampowered.com/curator/39323490]Tamaster's Review Archive . In-Depth Analysis Writing & Worldbuilding Overall, I found the main plot to be enjoyable and beautifully narrated, with characters having plausible personalities that change over time as a reaction to the events. Coming of age is the central theme of GOW:R, alongside maturity in general. Both Kratos and his son Atreus significantly evolve their beliefs and ways during the journey; the same goes for important secondary characters, be them allies or enemies. Apart from Odin sounding more like a Cartel boss from Breaking Bad than the majestic, imposing god he should be, the main issue with GOW:R’s narration is over-exposure during specific story segments: they’re rather dull and filled with uninteresting dialogue for the most part. Luckily this is an exception, and most of the narrative flows with an appropriate balance of meaningful dialogue, cutscenes and action. The worldbuilding is deep and crafted with care. Aside from dialogues, there’s plenty of lore documents to know more about each of the Nine Realms’ history, traditions, mythology and society both past and present. Of course, historical accuracy isn’t a concern, since there’s a fictional God of War fighting against deities of a whole different pantheon. Each location has a high level of detail, but not much in terms of environmental narration, save for a few exceptions; GOW:R’s world is interesting, complex and coherent: lore enthusiasts will have a field day with theories and speculations about its many yet-unclear mysteries. Exploration & Secrets You’ll explore the Nine Realms mostly on foot, the only exception being dog-powered sleds or rowboats in larger maps. Initially, you’ll be barred from visiting most of the locations, which are unlocked as you progress in the main story. Generally, there’s an alternation of linear sections with a few side areas off the main path, and large open-world sections with plenty of secrets and entirely optional sub-locations. In each Realm, there’s plenty of secrets to find, from legendary chests to unique puzzles, secret bosses, optional quests and a mountain of lore bits. The handy checklist included in your map keeps track, but in many cases it will be up to you to explore carefully, since nothing apart from quest-related objectives is marked on it. In many cases, you’ll have to come back later with proper equipment, skills or after specific events to be able to access multiple locations, which is a bit tedious, but worth your time in terms of rewards and additional content. Fast travel is available between static portals, which have to be backtracked to on foot, which is a bit annoying at times. Exploring every corner, ledge, pit and ruin is fundamental to get all the unique armor pieces, weapon parts, skills and crafting resources needed to upgrade Kratos and his companions’ gear to keep up with increasingly powerful enemies, especially at higher difficulties. Combat System Combat plays out in third person, with fast pacing and plenty of mechanics to consider, that evolve in depth as you progress. Kratos initially has two weapons, the Axe and the Blades, each with their own skill trees that progressively unlock as you upgrade them, and a third main weapon unlocked later in the story. Atreus will be his faithful companion, with his own dedicated skill tree, acting as a support character able to shoot special arrows and split aggro in the more chaotic battles. The system has been mechanically overhauled compared to the first GOW reboot: mechanics like perfect dodges and parries, status effects, stun bars to execute enemies, and a greater variety of enemy skills and unique abilities are all welcome overhauls. The combat gameplay heavily depends on your build type: some players may prefer ranged attacks, while others bank it all on high risk parries and status effects, or stunning enemies quickly to execute them. There’s a great variety of options, and the game encourages you to use all weapon abilities and experimenting with them with a Labor system that upgrades weapon skills the more you use them in combat. It’s not until mid game, however, that the combat system’s full depth and versatility truly start to shine. Expect highly spectacular finishers, devastating abilities, combos, and everything else that makes the GOW series great, but improved even further compared to its predecessor. Except for parrying, which generally isn’t as useful except when used in specific builds. Progression & Crafting As you defeat enemies and complete quests, you’ll gain XP to spend in upgrading your weapon skills, Kratos and his companions’ abilities, other than Runic Abilities and Relics, which act as additional skills with a cooldown. The materials you find from chests, get as quest rewards or drop from defeated enemies, particularly named ones, can be used alongside Hacksilver (currency) to upgrade Kratos’ armor pieces and weapons, granting better stats. There are many combinations between stats, unique passive abilities of each armor, skills and relics. This opens to a great class building variety not usually seen in other GOW games, in some ways similar to ARPGs. It’s a solid progression system that steadily rewards you with new set pieces, skills and interchangeable abilities to experiment with to find the best build for your playstyle.

God of War Ragnarök somehow managed to surpass my expectations. The story is incredible, with emotional moments, epic battles, and great character development from start to finish. The combat feels even better than the previous game, with more variety and satisfying gameplay. The visuals, music, and voice acting are all top notch. Every hour felt worth it, and I never got bored. It's easily one of the best action-adventure games I've played and a perfect sequel.

Loved all 107 hours I spent on this game. By far one of the greatest releases of the decade. I know I am late to play this but a poor kid who finally got a big boy job and afforded my own devices bought my own game and finished it by myself, I'm sure many people would understand me. 100/10 game and would love to play the trilogy that's coming.
