Was completely surprised by how good this was. Ragnarok has an excellent core gameplay loop and it fits perfectly into the rogue-lite formula, obviously inspired by Hades and other similar games. This DLC is a real love letter to fans of the original God of War trilogy, and delivers a deep exploration into the Krato's from those games (as well as references to even the PSP titles and Ascension which was a lovely surprise). It's amazing how Santa Monica have changed Krato's from so two-dimensional in the earlier games, to truly one of the most interesting and compelling characters in recent triple AAA gaming. Get's me very excited for where Krato's may go in the future, and if this epilogue does serve as the end of his journey for good then it also works as a perfect introspective farewell.
