The combat looks less complicated than a DMC or GoW, but it looks really pretty. It's hard to assess the depth of the mechanics until we get our hands in it.

A. You're comparing Ryse with very different games. As I mentioned before, Ryse is going for a combat system more similar to Assassins Creed.

B. The combat in GoW has zero complexity. Button mash and QTEs.

God of War has multiple weapons and switching between them while performing certain combinations can make battles much easier.  Mashing will keep you from passing certain points.  If you're comparing the combat to Assassin's Creed, with it's block > counter > kill fighting, it doesn't get simpler than that.
