A game feeling less epic can't be justified with "it's a prequel", if epicness is a key feature of GoW's appeal. Maybe they made the wrong game!
If I can relate, making Other M about Samus' vulnerability and subservience 'because it's a prequel' was still the wrong choice.

That's the thing though Soleron, they actually made it more epic. The "Titan gameplay" has way more scale in this game. I mean what they did in the beginning of the game makes the Chronus' boss fight look like some non-epic fight (Can't think of a better way to put it).

Its not entirely the scale and the technical aspect of it (Not to say thats not remarkable).
The epicness was the fact of where the story was going. You had freaking traveled in time to get the Titans with you to climb Mount Olympus ontop of Gaia in order to fight a war against the gods of olympus.
Shit doesnt get more epic than that!
Now if they want to throw Kratos in a prison and have it be ontop of a Titan thats even larger: Sure. But it doesnt hold the same value. Especially with how GoW2 ended, setting up GoW3 with hype that lasted 5 years!

Epic story vs epic gameplay, which are reviewers complaining about? Literally, which one? I'm not gonna bother reading reviews. Cause if they're complaining about epic gameplay, which is what I gather from the review thread, then they're dead wrong.

I don't think they're dead wrong as many say it doesnt have nearly as many boss battles as the previous GoWs. It might have way fewer that are bigger but combine that with a less epic story and its just a sequence thats briefly cool and technically amazing but nothing that compares to the previous ones.
