This is what I love about this game, it doesn’t waste your time, even when things feel slow, there is always something happening. Their home no longer safe, they set out together once again, to seek answers and safety.

And you can feel it with every line from Christopher Judge’s excellent performance. Kratos’ only goal is to protect and prepare his son for a war he hopes never comes.

I mean from the very first frame Ragnarök draws you back in with outstanding acting bringing more kick and emotion than some games have in their entire runtimes. Now, lets look at the first hour of God of War Ragnarök, you are pursued by Freya who unleashes avalanches in a wolf pulled sled chase, outrunning the forces of nature, Atreus must once again deal with grief, we meet Odin and Thor, THEN YOU BATTLE THOR IN ONE OF THE COOLEST OPENING FIGHTS EVER.and that’s the first hour.

Refusing to unleash the fun until I hit the title sequence almost 2 hours in. You know, I spent hours in the opening area running around aimlessly while playing almost all the Assassin’s Creed games? Not because I was having fun, no, because the game had me do mundane task after mundane task.
