Yeah, I did come close once or twice wearing a partially upgraded Niflheim set (one time I had her health below 5% when I died so I was pretty pissed), but it's definitely hard since you're under her level unless you fully upgrade the set to reach the same level as her. The main problem with that boss is that all of her attacks are randomized, if there was a set order for her attacks it would be so much easier because you'd have more time to react and either block, dodge, or hit her with a ranged attack while she is charging depending on what attack she is using. One of the hardest bosses in any game I've played. 

Her attacks were randomized..... but they pretty much all had counters or moves you could do to stop them. The issue with playing it that way though is that you really can't afford to get it wrong or miss your window. So you either preempt or run.

And I guess you have a little more leeway to make mistakes on easy and need to hit less as well. And some attacks become possible to stop witharrows instead of axe heavy throw

Also did anyone get dissapointed that our God Slayer got "nerfed" down in power (or are the Norse gods much stronger than Greek?)

On the Give me God of War you could die anywhere from 1 to 3 hits from even weak enemies and needed 12+ hits to kill even the weaker mob enemy.

At the same age Norse gods and Greek ones are comparable but Kratos has aged and lost power in the same way Zeus lost some power by aging.

But this probably becomes a trilogy and you can expect him to gain power again. (or at least for a while)

Sure. But you are algo confusing I complaining about he being weak against the Norse gods against my real grief that he is weak against even regular mob.

Ended meaning defeated or forfeit?

Barlog talked on this. He said that's a limitation of making a game. You can't make Kratos OP against everything, then you'll be left with a terrible game. It goes for the old God of War games as well.

But then he gone the opposit and nerfed Kratos. When even the weakest monster in the game is stronger than you, then the God of War is the player that can win even like that.

I know that when watching avengers 3 and Thor 3 I laughed at how the heroes and gods were incompetent. Being stronger than the enemies in several occasions. the enemy doing simple attacks and they having difficult to win. Give me your hammer Thor.

I didn’t find the game difficult except for a couple of Valkyries and that god dam Valkyrie queen, her life bar just took so long to get down

The main campaign really isn't that bad. Post game content can certainly fuck you up, but it's usually not too difficult to find a strategy that exploits the enemy's AI, regardless of difficulty. Bosses are usually pretty pattern heavy and can take some time to memorize, but once you get them down it's pretty doable.

Queen doesn't have pattern, she does have several specific move animation, but you have to react to each individually. But what difficult did you play?
