Santa Monica really outdid themselves.

Like anyone I heard about the acclaimed God of war (2018) and after playing all the previous games, I finally was ready to start this one.

For a game to be praised like that one, I always think that it needs to meet 3 specific requirements from people’s expectations:

- A good protagonist
- A well balanced and challenging gameplay
- Great graphics


God of war (2018) nails all 3 extremely well.

Kratos is a fantastic protagonist, badass but full of flaws trying to improve himself over time while still being haunted by his past mistakes and trauma. Traumas that deeply affects his relationship with Atreus.

The game is not too easy but also not too hard, the difficulty spike is natural as you progress trough the game with a solid skill tree.

The game is really gorgeous, I’m not the biggest graphics enthusiast but the environment are really nice to look at, the game takes place in a Nordic setting and these snow mountains are background quality to me.
