This is actually the best video game I’ve ever played. Why do people shit on it so much?

new to videogames are you?

>barely any bossfights in a game series that prides itself for having some of the best bossfights ever. Instead the same troll fight with the same attack & finishing animation is reused a dozen times just in different colours.
>Even standard enemy variety is fucking terrible. Hope you enjoy draugrs for most of the game.
>Kratos is completely pussified.
>Atreus has a sudden, 180 change of attitude that gets solved and forgotten about in less than an hour. This is a game that often gets praised for "amazing writing"
>Optional realms are literally just corridors
>Even the main story realms are fucking empty and boring as shit. All other GOW games have excellent sense of adventure. You go through so many incredible looking locations. In GOW 2018? You spend most of the time running through the same forest/cave over and over again. There was absolutely no reason to make the game so hub centric, especially when canonically you are meant to be on this epic journey
>Oh, and this is meant to be an actual place where people live. There is literally like, 2 houses in the entire game. The entire level design is just hilariously poor.
>The Elf realm is completely underdeveloped, filled with annoying enemies. Bet you didn't realize you killed THE ELF KING..... who was he? Why did he want to kill you? What does killing him achieve? Who knows.
>MUH ONE TAKE CAMERA..... so many sacrafices made for this. The camera being the biggest one, its far too close even at its most zoomed out state, you have to rely on guide arrows CONSTANTLY mid fight. Which is just a dumb way to design a game.
>the superficial RPG elements completely break the "immersion" anyway since you are forced to constantly open menus to upgrade skills/swap gear/equipment, blah blah.... who even wanted leveled enemies and gear in a fucking GOW game anyway? You are A FUCKING GOD.
>the last hour is nothing but sequel baiting. This is a videogame, not the end of a TV season.
Nathaniel Powell
I miss when bait was funny.
Noah Foster
Because it's cool to hate everything. It was bretty gud.
Isaac Williams
Any action game that has constant walking or jogging segments in it can't be good.
Blake Gutierrez
Do we have any news about the sequel?
Ryder Evans
because it's not god of war.
it's that simple.
I have no interest in soulless games wearing the skin of good franchises.

God of War, as a series, has always had massive pitfalls - imagine being this contrarian. You have some good points, but you're too busy being a fuckwit for em to matter.
>bossfights are deadset a series staple, and the troll reskins were horseshit. big agree
>enemy variety only matters when they don't all amount to 'mash square and triangle till no more enemies stand'. Which is exactly what previous entry GoWs felt like.
>Damn bro I hate when characters develop too, I wish they just kept on making Ghost of Sparta tier angery Kratos games/
>Absolutely inconceivable that the boy got put back in his fucken place and snapped out of it, right? Wack.
>they weren't really optional realms desu, it was more like an arena mode. bet you wouldn't bitch if it was an option on the title screen like the rest of the series.
>lul, thinking the realms weren't spectacle-worthy
>people live there? half the world was fucken flooded, and kratos literally chose to go to assfuck nowhere. A few non-dead NPCs eith little huts would've been nice though desu
>Elf realm is definitely underdeveloped, so much potential
>the one-take look is good. shame there's no cure for shit taste.
>implying that every other GoW game doesn't have action rpg weapon levelling. Remember muh orbs, you dickhead?
>oh no, the last half hour gets you excited for the next game, what a fucken sin
