As someone who bought Bloodborne day 1 and could never get into it (I only just got to the Cleric Beast when the game was recently on PS Plus, and I felt I wanted to give it another shot), i'm finding the Give Me A Challenge mode on GOW a lot more accessible and rewarding. Not sure if it is the environments (does not feel so claustrophobic to me) or the fact that dying is not punished as nearly as severely. I only very cautiously opted to try the hard mode on GOW because on the developers posted on here that its the "way" to play it, but I am so glad I did.
You need to progress more in the story
You should atleast be around 4. What are you doing? Lol. Find/craft better gear as soon as you can
Just finished the game main story before few hours! What a ride! It was a rollercoaster of emotional & epic moments!! Truly a masterpiece and the best PS4 game I've ever played!
The gameplay works so well with the story to the point that there's no other game has balance them as well as GOW does!
Saying it's the best game in the series is underestimating it, because it's one of the best 10 games ever made!
The combat system is so satisfying and engaging, the lore is rich, there are just many things to do in the world : like fighting optional bosses, doing side quests, learning more details and stories about the world and it's characters, finding new & rare equipments/abilities/upgrades etc.., and many other things to do in this beautifully designed world!
The main story is amazing and well written, deep, complex characters both lead & supporting characters, also great villains, Kratos & Atreus journey is something I will never forget, one of the best adventures I've ever seen in a video game!
Don't open the spoiler tag if you haven't beaten the game main sotry yet :
This game raised the standards to an almost impossible height!

The final fight was just awesome!
Seriously that was so damn epic!! That's how to design a final boss, many great moments in this final showdown between them, the ending was so great and emotional!

I've been doing pretty much every side quest I have found, and this game is just fucking amazing and super addictive! So far I would definitely rate it 9/10.
What can I say about the graphics that hasn't said before? Simply breathtaking. And the combat is engaging, fluid, fast and dynamic.
However, I can name a couple of things that I definitely not enjoy:
1) I have played for several hours, and I have only faced ONE boss that made me feel like I was actually playing a God of War game. I really miss the extreme setpieces and the gigantic monsters with moving parts of the previous games. I hope the game has bosses like that besides the one I already killed.
2) Kratos is boring as fuck. In the previous games he was angry and violent, and loud to the point of being comical. But it gave him character. Being fucking angry was like a trademark of his. So far in this game he's basically just a jerk, and silent as fuck. He's a huge disappointment so far. I really expect him to get more development as I progress, because right now "Venom/Punished Kratos" is worse than original Kratos.

Anyone else find this game genuinely funny?
It might just be my dry sense of humor, but I haven't laughed this much in a game for a long time.
Some of my favorite parts:
- Kratos (and sometimes Atreus) addressing Mimir as 'head'
- The Boat stories
- The Dwarves
So good!

I was going to say that looks like an early model but comparing them I'm not convinced at all. Looks so different with out the beard though.
I've worked out my problem, I didn't know level was based on gear, so I've just been using whatever had highest strength. After putting on some blue gear I've leveled up.
Not yet, I didn't know about it until I read about it in this thread, but I will definitely go & see it ASAP
Credit rolled. One of the best games I have played. And dat ending tease for sequel. GoW2 will be crazy.
Loved that part!
There are a few pretty hilarious moments in this game.
I really appreciated the comic relief with those one liners in this game. Great way to break the tension when needed and get some comic relief in there. The writing and character interactions are really well done I feel.
My favorite is "Mimir of the Bifrost teats!"
BTW, make sure you fast travel to get more stories and lines. :)
Those are so incredibly tough. I faced one that literally one-shotted me. Crazy difficult motherfuckers, but they will fall someday. :D
Mimir in general is great, especially the banter between him and Kratos.
Yeah you're way under-leveled mate
GO. NOW. BOY.
Why would you need to jump? All platforming sections are scripted
Kratos is much more interesting where I'm at. Has some depth to him.
Totally agree about the bosses. You can have grounded and more mature and still have amazing set pieces and bosses from previous games. That is a shot to this game, Uncharted 4 and Uncharted The Last Legacy.
My problem was I thought you just leveled from XP like most games, so didn't pay much attention to gear, but after realising it's based on your gear I managed to jump from level 2-4 in 2 minutes lol, this should make things less frustrating I imagine :D
You need a minimum of 80+ hours to unlock this legendary spartan skill. Keep playing.
FINALLY!! Can't wait for it to arrive
FYI its beautiful. Easily one of my favorite collector editions
Kratos and Mimir were great, When he called him Head made me think of this
BOY! Don't hype me more than I'm hyped. Looking forward to this amazing figure and packaging
How else am I supposed to do sweet air juggles or jump out of swarm of bad guys?
The dialogue was something I did not expect to be this good for God of War. It's honestly incredibly well done.
I think I beat my first one around lvl 3-4 and it was a pain in the ass due to my damn pride. Pretty much no room for mistakes, must parry all her yellow attacks and stay on that ass constantly for maximum punish efficiency and constantly utilize the fuck outta BOY at key moments when she's in the air with her bs.
Coming back to the others at a higher level was so much more manageable lol.
It seriously is.
Makes me wish I had upped to the Stone Mason over the Collector's.
