THE VERDICT
I expected great action from God of War, and it delivers that handily. But I didn’t expect it to be a thrilling journey in which every aspect of it complements the others to form what is nothing short of a masterpiece. It’s a game in which Kratos, a previously one-note character, becomes a complex father, warrior, and monster, embattled both on the field and within his own heart about how to treat his son; one in which the world opens up and shifts, offering rewards in both gameplay and knowledge of its lore that I treasured with each accomplishment. The obvious care that went into crafting its world, characters, and gameplay delivers by far the most stirring and memorable game in the series.

Will I be lost if I play this without playing any previous entries?

Most likely not. In the reviews I've read, there is some backstory about how Kratos came to be this character.
The previous games were fun, but the story was basically that he became angry with the Greek Pantheon of Gods and butchered them all.

Microsoft lololol. What good exclusives do they still have? Ori and Cuphead?

I loved that story and lore. Wish this game would have been something else. Kratos is a Spartan general, not a viking.

It was time for a change. They scraped the bottom of the barrel with Ascension.

Nahhhh this is the direction GoW needed to go.

It should be an entirely new character though, not Kratos.

I don't know if they're completely abandoning the history. We'll have to see what the story does.
I have no doubt the game is great, but after some of these same sites gave Destiny 2 the same scores, I'll go into it with a little (ok, a lot) less faith in the reviews.

Is he not immortal? I like the idea of him progressing through history. Egypt will be next.

This series has shown you can kill Gods. No reason to think he's immortal.

But it is his punishment. He has to live with killing/losing his family. No reason to get rid of that. Now he may have to go through it again.
