Several things must be said

 

God of War is not a game for everyone. I certainly have no interest in the franchise. I like my games to provide me with many hours of entertainment, have a well written plot, be good to play with friends and challenge both my brain and my gaming abilities. I am sure it is a good game within its genre, but it is not a universally loved genre. Understanding this will help you understand my later points.

I agree that god of war isn't a game for everyone, but GoW contains many of the qualities you look for in a game. It has a very well written plot, with the amount of unlockables you can have many hours of gameplay in GoW. It's not a game that you can play with your friends because it's obviously only 1 player, but it definitely challenges your gaming ability (especially in God mode, and the challenges of the Gods/Titans) and God of War is known for having many different puzzles in the game that can be challenging to figure out.

So I don't really understand why you don't like the game if it meets pretty well all your qualities for a good game?

@Michael-Moore, I think the sales for God of War II is incomplete, I heard it passed GoW I,  but I could be wrong.

 

I would consider a game long if I am likely to play it for 100 hours or more, medium length 50 hours or more, 25-50 hours is a short game and if I'm not going to end up playing it for 25 hours into it I won't buy it. Where does GoW fit into that, if I go for 100% completion?

I'll agree it challenges my gaming ability, so that is a plus for it. The puzzles however are not very difficult, and seem uninspired compared to something like Zelda
