Nearly 9 hours into the game. I was thinking that not even this game could top Elden Ring as my Game of the Year, but right now, I'm having serious doubts about that, even this early on.

When Odin first showed up, my first thought was that he looked and sounded very familiar to me, so I looked it up. He’s played by Richard Schiff.
Toby Ziegler is Odin.

Damn, I lost my passion for games as of late but I may have to download this when I get a chance. I LOVED the last one.

Got some solid time in last night. {Spoiler}{Spoiler} I think I like playing BOY better than Kratos! Was pretty surprised when the game handed control over to him and I hope there’s more as the game goes on!

I have never gotten my ass kicked in a Souls game like I have in this one at the highest difficulties.
It's like one hit and you're in the red.

I’ve known Heimdall for five minutes, and I cannot put into words how badly I want Kratos to rip his head off with his bare hands.

I have to say that it was the right decision to turn this into a two part reboot rather than a trilogy. As as much as I'm enjoying the story and characters, I'm starting to get over the "Last of Us" template the series has adopted, and I say that as someone who adored GoW 2018.

Sticking the axe in the enemy and tossing them off a cliff like total losers will never get old.

"Kratos, why don't you ~explains how to solve puzzle~" Me: "Why don't you STFU?"

As someone not enjoying the gameplay, the writing and performances in this are really good. I just got to {Spoiler}{SPOILER: CLICK TO SHOW} The Great Lodge and I absolutely love how they've written Odin and Thor. They are just so opposite in how terrifying they manage to be. It's crazy looking at the old games and comparing them to this.

the npc characters get really annoyed with you if you spend more than 30 seconds hunting loot, which is a nice touch while being incredibly annoying after a while.
yes I'm a loot goblin on games like this.

{Spoiler} Boss fight against Heimdall was probably my favorite in the Norse set games so far. I liked that Kratos was trying to not give in to the prophecy, even if that backfired.
Mimir’s line afterwards about if they’re breaking date or if fate was breaking them gave me chills.

O.O {Spoiler}I did not see Odin having been impersonating Tyr the entire time coming. Nor did I see Brok getting killed. Everything with the impromptu hunting distraction was so good.

Everything with the impromptu hunting distraction was so good. {Spoiler}{SPOILER: CLICK TO SHOW}And the game cleverly foreshadows this turn of events. Fake Tyr even asks, "What trickery is this, Odin?" like he's talking to Odin who isn't there. But if you take out the comma? "What trickery is this Odin?"
