So, just beat GoW Ragnarök. It was a huge gap in my backlog since GoW 2018 was like in my top 20 last year I think? A few thoughts about the game:
* Kratos/Atreus moments are still amazing and very well acted. * Graphics are fantastic, especially contrasting with FFVII Rebirth's performance mode, which I also played recently. * Combat overall is better with even more enemy variety than GoW 2018. On the other hand... * Plot is a little too unfocused. Too much sidetracking that could have been used for better buildup of some later stuff. * Related to the above, pacing isn't as good as GoW 2018, and some things feel padded out a bit.
Overall I'd give it maybe an 8.5/10.

I can see why pacing would be an issue, as some of the Atreus sections hurt the momentum of the story for me, but I feel like the last act could've been padded out a lot more.
