Just... really good gaming. I don't have much to add to the already existing GoW: Ragnarök discussion. It is a perfect marriage of sublime, insistently fun combat with meaningful narrative direction. The experience is brought home with stunning depictions of interesting characters, the realization of fantastical world spaces, astound attention to detail and high polish. Although hampered by lulls in the narrative pacing and an annoying travel system brought forward from God of War (2018), Ragnarök is nothing short of a masterpiece.
