Having replayed God of War (PS2) over the last week before the release of this game I've gotta say the adaptation was rough. The mix between the new control scheme, Kratos being relatively weak at the start and enemies being far tougher than in other games made for some early frustrations. My first encounter with Heavy Draugr was a particularly painful one.

Then you level up, gain armor, weapon upgrades, new abilities for Kratos and Atreus and it gets really really fun. It gets even better when you reach the Lake of Nine and things open up in a grandiose way, I've spent a few hours doing side quests before continuing with the main plot and it was all entertaining stuff (especially freeing the dragon)

Glad to hear this and it's not just me. I'm early in and I've been getting my butt completely kicked on normal difficulty. Not that I like easy games mind you, but I've never been in the mindset of give me uber difficult the whole game either, it's just not as fun to me. Good to know it's more of a learning curve and things get better as you get further and upgrade. Sounds very BotW in that respect.
