+ Excellent combat system, expanded from strong core in GoW 2018. Each weapon feels uniquely satisfying.
+ Great cast of characters that each bring something special to the table - feels like the Fellowship from LotR
+ Technical prowess: incredible visuals and performance
+ Satisfying optional content if you choose

- Atreus sections are a total slog
- Story often gets in the way of gameplay
- climactic "ragnarok" was a bit underwhelming
