Topic: God of War Ragnarök

I recently completed the game (PS5 version) and now doing post-game trophy cleanup. I had major game-breaking bugs / glitches in the middle section of the main story which I was forced to reload previous save files just to continue. The worst was after beating Heimdall, I just could not even get out of the arena.

Also had numerous graphical and sound glitches in cutscenes (as in characters just standing still then suddenly zip to their intended location and sound cutting out), that took me out of the experience. I played GoW 2018 on the PS4 and never had any issue whatsoever.

My score is 6 / 10

It genuinely feels like the comment section on this site no longer represents the same sentiment as the rest of player base. Alan Wake 2 may not be a 9 or 10 but it is definitely a strong 8. God of War Ragnarok is a 9-10/10.

you even see it for FF7 Rebirth where the comments in the poll talk mostly negative to mixed but the actual poll skews heavily into high marks.

@breakneck They're all just opinions. I thought "Alan Wake 2" was completely dreadful and I'm more than done with AAA Sony first party games - your enjoyment is not affected in any way.

Just completed GoW:R. Loved it. I thought it struggled with pacing in the first third or so of the game. But once it got through that it was just epic moment after epic moment with the storing building up nicely to its grand finale. After my first few hours playthrough I didn't think I'd rank it higher than GoW 2018 but by the end it surpassed it for me.
