An excellent game that's just on the edge of being a masterpiece. It's sprawling epic fantasy that never forgets to ground itself in character and emotion, even if sometimes it comes across as too one-note or simplistic for its own good. It's greatest success is in how it successfully manages to be an epilogue to the original GoW saga, a setup for a new overarching adventure, and a self-contained narrative with fully realized arcs. And it's a blast to play, obviously!
