Wasn't a fan of the base game at all, but Valhalla is a wonderfully crafted combat centric experience and a nice epilogue to the nu-GoW story. It's a very accessible roguelike mode that makes Kratos face his past in a way the new games hadn't shown before.

Issues exist, obviously, and many carry over verbatim from the main game. The camera is still wonky, dialogue is still a bit too quippy and some encounters last way too long. However, this is still worth a play if you're invested in the story or just enjoy GoW combat.
