I don't know why you consider God of War to be "overrated". When it first came out, it was new IP, and, at least for me, came out of nowhere. That means people needed added time to learn about it, versus if it had been yet another sequel to a well-known franchise (e.g., one of the zillions of Marios), and results would trickle in. The way you are coming to a determination is not very good for new IP.
