Overlong, bloated and dumbed down compared to the previous titles, this God of War is one of the biggest disappointments in gaming that I've experienced. Gone is the jump button, pulled back camera that makes you see the fight arenas or the epic scale apart from some moments. Game focuses on very light RPG mechanics that's barely fleshed out with some level gating thrown in. What's worse is you have no idea on the level of the side quests in this game, so instead of taking a break, you most likely will be one shotted by most of the enemies outside of the story.
