- God of War (2018) is a rare moment in gaming, when it feels like all the progress of our medium can coalesce into a singular achievement. Striking out in a bold new direction while remaining true to its foundations, God of War is an absolute masterpiece and a must-experience piece of entertainment. There are no better examples of what the videogame form is capable of than this game.

Edit: just a clarification on my DMC/Bayonetta comments, I was really just saying that at the lower difficulties, 'button mashing' works. I fully agree that at higher difficulties that complexities of the excellent combat systems shine.
Fucking Amazing Ralph!
Skill Up I love your reviews best reviews out there
your patreon link is broken bedause of the parenthesis
This Guys Pie just buy the game man. If money is an issue rent it
That video where you warned us about reviews was the first of yours I’d seen and it was an instant subscribe... it’s really refreshing to hear from someone who cares about games in this way to keep spoilers away from the public! As someone who has had little things spoiled by things like that... it was just nice to see :)
It's been two years. I played it on day one, and I'm still hyped with this game
I just bought it after years in my wishlist, but for some reason never convinced myself to buy. BOOOOOY am I glad to have bought it finally. The most impressive think for me is there is nothing repetitive you have to do in the story or side quests, every mission and every puzzle is so unique
I just bought it for $15 CDN and my goodness it is a fantastic game
I bought it last week and I still haven't left my room. Seriously. This game is the best I've played in years.
just got 100% on this game
I was day 1 and loved every second of it
1. Create a masterpiece
2. Send out free review copies week before release
3. Build up the hype even more with 10/10 scores
4.???
5. Profit. No lootboxes/microtransactions required.
Ismaur91 But.....but AAA games are expensive to make and.......and microtransaction will support the game post launch.
All joke aside.........no AAA games must or need microtransaction. If your game is good, you will get the $$$, if not...try again.
Ismaur91 i wish more game developers would do the same but alas this is reality and we have accept it
Ismaur91 Yup! Cookie cutter template.
Games director on IGN said no microtransactions.
Devin B first i dont buy shitty games like cod or battlefield the only reason why i brought one of them was to play with my friends since it was my first time playing online games with friends.
Also i am more of a offline gamer myself the only online game that i play right now is warframe only.
Ultimately we are not in a Perfect world so greed still corrupt video games so i am just saying the truth and i am not giving up on video games.
As long as great games exist i will still have faith in gaming as a whole
And finally i am not a wuss
This game has reinvigorated my joy for single player games.
Any more games you'd recommend in the 3 years since you posted this comment?
@@gavinangus5518 dunno if this helps, but u must try red dead redemption 2 and witcher 3
I would give nier automata a Chance. Highly underrated. One of the few Games which was Still fun after playing a masterpiece Like gow
Would you say it's better or on par with rd2 or Witcher 3?
@@leeturton9254 in some aspects it's better than both of those games, but overall I'd say it's on par. In this game, there's never a dull moment. Top shelf gameplay, combat and story to boot

Finally picked this game up after your review echoed in my head for all these months...you're right...it's incredible.
10 month old comment? Höw did you like it? Did you beat the valkyrie?
@@Vidrigsson k
Who needs gameplay footage when you've got Skill Up in glorious 1080p mood lighting
Nikolai Nierstein i agree
I can't believe you didn't show any of the footage! Well, actually I can. I shouldn't be surprised at the integrity you show in doing us, the fans, a solid by not spoiling.
Thanks man.
You just sold me a console and a game.
you're incredibly good at these reviews brother. Definitely my go to for gaming reviews these days. keep it up!
Wait what!!! 360 on a Skill Up review!? Legend to Legend ❤
God of War had climbing like that before Uncharted even existed.
It didn't have climbing like that. GOW 1-3 had actual climbing, where you could change your position and you were in danger when you were climbing
Having flashbacks of climbing the spike collumn in GOW 1
Dear Sony, I had no interest or intention of purchasing God of War until I saw this review. Please put the proceeds from my purchase towards Skill Up's next plane ticket. Thank you.

Just simply get a job and save up for this game not to be on ur ass or rude or anything but life is hard that's why you always have to be a productive person in society.
This game so good it made the most articulate game reviewer speechless at some points
Just started my SIXTH play-through of this game. Starting brand new on GMGOW difficulty. Forgot how brutal and unforgiving the game is for you if you’re out of rhythm with the combat. But, my god, this game.....incredible doesn’t seem like a good enough word to describe it. Loved your review.
Wow, great review. I'm gonna name my son Skill Up.
Poor kid.
Why? I named my first kid Skill Up and my second one Up Skill!
we just go with Player One & Two
Master Chief and Sam Fisher.
How bout Ralph, then?
Brief = 20min? What dimension are you from? what is your life expectancy?
Skill Up you have very interesting and nice arguments, explaining your opinions of LtoU, Horizon and Unch.
It makes sense that you didn´t like them for the reason you mentioned. so much so that one could argue that your "opinion" is OBJECTIVELY right.
Now I´m gonna attempt to argue in the same manner for a 180° opinion.
I liked LtoU for the story, dialogue, acting and the gameplay was just a way to experience it. I disliked Horizon for the reason you mentioned and because I did not care about the characters at all, least of all the story. Both were just not presented in an interesting way. (people just standing there, staring at each other as in elder scrolls and other titles just cant sell characters to me)
also disliked Unch. because of its horribly stupid story, dialogue, unrealistic everything, characters etc and do not care at all about the gameplay.
by telling you my personal (unimportant) opinion of 3 games I just wanted to highlight one thing (I guess for like "world piece" umong gamers):
everybody has their own REASONS for opinions, therefor they are all valid and true. We should all just accept that we all have different tastes. get over it and just enjoy what we love. (which in my case is story in all forms media. I play games for the story therefor I have actually never played online cuz i dont care about pointless grinding without substance)
cheers everybody
Lmao
TheScratcherStudios That wasn’t a triggered response at all
Have you watched his reviews? Lol they are an hour long but also amazing
TheScratcherStudios did you just say that Uncharted has horrible dialogue?
God of War made me fall in love with gaming again, two years later and i can't help but still play it every now and then. It is my game of the generation, if not my favorite of all time, especially in a year like 2018 which was stacked, it still managed to stand out to me.
this is with out a doubt one of the best reviews i have ever watched. thank you so much for doing an amazing review. always enjoy your work, but this is top notch.
Joshua Perkins Agreed. I’m not watching or reading any other review. Some people have no shame in spoilers. Thinking they are doing the reader or viewer a favor. Beware!
R E M A R K A B L E
Because he didn't state any issues with the game which exists like repeatitive gameplay, no freedom in open world and less replay value.
@Channel worst god of war combat system
Check out Mortismal Gaming reviews, way less pretentious chatter, way more tangible methods of analysis of a game systems.
Also, he 1oo% the games he reviews
So... Would you recommend it?
Lol he said God of war is the game of the generation I thinks that's pretty self explanatory 😂
Courage Ekhaguere I guess jokes isn't for everyone.
Hahaha
Rambi Bahahahahahahahaha
“ I think that’s pretty self explanatory”
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Rambi aren’t for everyone”
You can't just eventually button mash your way to victory in the Devil may cry series. Maybe on easy. Don't downplay the combat mechanics of Devil may cry(specifically 3 and 4). Great video tho.
KingKien95 you can finish the games button mashing but with mediocre scores and ignoring the mechanics of trying to pull flashy combos.
Alex Hernandez like I said maybe on easy and this is true for normal as well, but the harder difficulties you can't. And It's not about being flashy, it's about the game making u utilize your different skills and weapons that u gain throughout the game.
In DMC1&3&4 you still have to learn how the game works, maybe you can get away with mediocre combos, but dodging and timing is a must.
While in GOW square, square, triangle, spam through the game and win. As casual as it gets.
Actually, you can. Love the games, but they were hardly complex in their mechanics.
you CAN button mash dmc 3 and finish the game... if you get incredibly lucky. that game was so brutal, they had to release the "easy version" later. so no, its not a game that you can button mash and expect to finish the map. at best you can buy tons of items, and brute force your way, but even then, you will have a tough road ahead.
GoW on the other hand, pretty much every single one was just the same combo the whole game. it wasnt easy, but no where near as masochistic as DMC3.
*Years later*
*Still a Masterpiece to Me*
*One of the best games i ever played*
I know I’m super later but I just finished my play through of it. I easily dropped around 60 hours into the game, completing the favors and valkyries. Yea, it’s really fucking good. Not only that but I think the storytelling is very well done too. The side quests really add to its depth but do so in an organic way that happens through the characters growing together, through their banter and ups and downs. While plenty of triple A games rely on spectacular set pieces and action sequences (of which this game has plenty) to tell their story, God of War let’s these moments shine while allowing the characters to process them in a very human way.
The Vikings would damn me for such a statement but, I’m really looking forward to Ragnarok. Bravo Santa Monica, bravo
I know that people who haven’t known you since the start of Skill up, may be douchey and make these “sell out” comments but for the rest of us who know the kind of person you are, will never need you to make those opening statements to explain/prove your intentions. Keep the videos coming bro, they’re always top notch and enjoyable

I’m watching this after playing ragnorok. And it gets me hype all over again. gow is the franchise that got me into games as a kid. To see them take make a modern fresh enhanced game while still paying much respect to the lore is so awesome. Santa Monica and insomniac have my heart lol.
you forgot to say there are no loading screen and its a nonstop one shot front start to finish
Skill up...massive fan. You never let us down. Thankyou
That's why we call him skill up, not skill down
This is the best game I’ve ever played
@MortalGamerDC1 85 1) TLOU2 surpassed Witcher 3's GOTY awards, it has +300 GOTY awards right now, 2) Witcher 3 and God of War are two very different games, 3) I too prefer Witcher 3 over God of War, but God of War is better in some aspects (gameplay for example).
@MortalGamerDC1 85 play yakuza 0 that is the best open world game awards mean something sure but it isn't the end all be all and gow is certainly better i have played both game's witcher 3 was longer and it had gwent and that's it some questlines were nice but the over all quality and content gow is just simply better if you add both witcher 3 dlc i will say witcher has a better story but base game no way
Ragnarok is so close boys!
This is a good review, but the statement at 6:55 that devil may cry and Bayonetta are button-mashy is kind of offensive. DMC and Bayonetta are more about maximizing your ranking through stylish play, while GOW is more about simply surviving your foes. If you want to just finish Bayonetta, you can technically button mash, but if you want to get a rank higher than bronze, you’re gonna have to bring your fucking A-game.
This is a good review, I just hate it when people call games with some of the most complex and expressive combat ever designed “button-mashy” just because the complexity in their combat usually requires more than one playthrough to make itself known.
I guess it just boils down to how you enjoy games. If you find yourself repeatedly playing through the games you buy, you’ll probably like the combat in Bayonetta more, and if you only play through most games once, GOW will have more to offer you
Also this is unrelated but the RPGlite systems in GOW suck dick.
Your stats barely change anything about how you play the game and it’s just a boring, tedious, non-mechanic that only serves to waste your time.
You’re making me even more excited for this game. You make it sound so good I just wanna play it already.
2018 is one hell of a year confirmed
Now if only people stop making battle Royal clone and work on good single player or make some innovation if multiplayer is their aim instead of making clone after clone
Twitch and Twitter feed makes me throw up at the moment, PUBG and fucking Fortnite everywhere..
god of war sets the bar high les hope more single player comes for now we can sleep happy couse more god of war games will come
Just wait till September when spidey releases
I'm still playing Monster Hunter World. I'm just happy the streamers from Destiny 2 dropped D2 and focused on MHW instead. It really shows a massive shift from greedy AAA schlock to more honest devs/publishers.
No forced MP in God of War. No micro transactions. 2018 is looking good.

Great review, I love how you talk about games. Your passion for them shines through. I hugely appreciate the spoiler free nature of this review to. This is the only video I have or will watch of this. I want to experience it as it’s meant to be experienced. Top job.P.s. loved the coffee in a car video to.
I love your transparency. Thanks for the honesty.
I’ve trusted all your game reviews thus far, haven’t been disappointed yet. I’ll take your word for it and get this game.
Someone ever played the Bloodborne dlc where you think the whole time „wtf how good level design can be“. But guess it’s too hard for a looter shooter fan
First time playing this game on PS5 and I have to say this is the best game I’ve played hands down.
Oh man I couldn’t agree more. Based on what I played so far it is. Everything from the story to the immersion to the level design to the gameplay to the world building makes this an absolutely must play
I love this channel! Going to buy the God of War PS4 Pro Bundle because of this review. A+ Skill Up, very good review
Jacob Peterson Enjoy! so happy for you!!
so am i ......

Gonna pay it off next week
Man. I wish I didn’t have a pro so I could own this version of the console!
I pre-ordered it too can't wait for next Friday!
30 hour God Of War game... im in.
I just started playing once it was free on PS5 - it's an amazing game. I can't believe I waited this long.

Wuutttt... you didn’t like The Last of Us?? I think it’s pitchforks time guys.... RiP SkillUp 1934 - 2018
Salim B. Well, it was predictable asf
predictable ? hmm no, ending was no way predictable most stories take the safe "good guy" option
Salim B. That game sucks.
BeThomsen TLOU is a game which showcases the value of a character development centered plot more than the narrative itself. The plot is predictable, but what makes the game exceedingly good is how the characters react, and the interplay of the characters in the situations they’re in. It’s like watching different renditions of Hamlet, everyone has a different perception of a story, and TLOU does an excellent job of bringing its characters to life and making them feel very real.
A major part of what made TLOU for me was the multiplayer. I loved the story mode plenty. But I base every MP I’ve ever played and ever will play on TLOU.
Button mashing through DMC and Bayonetta? When was the last time you played those games, man?
Never
i love your head shake in the beginning followed by “fucking incredible” because yea me too lol
I'm playing this for the first time on the ps5. The console was worth it just for this game and Bloodborne alone.

I've been waiting for this game before it was even announced. This is the first review I saw and hearing your first reactions about it, gave me goosebumps. You just made my week of waiting way longer.
Fantastic review, by far the best review I’ve seen of God of War
Whilst I disagreed with your Nier: Automata review, your ability to be cogent and comprehensive always has me coming back to your channel and respecting your own view points on various games.
Plus you got me hooked me on Warframe so I'll always have you to thank for that.
Looking forward to God of War, I'm firmly aboard the hype train.
Keep doing you dude.
Ventus x A lot of his points on the story had already been done in the original game, from the extra routes, the themes of isolation, existentialism and the question of one's self. With the hollow characters of 2B and Adam and Eve thrown in and coupled with the reused it certainly wasn't perfect, but it's still an awesome game.
Micheal Andrews So basically, you disagreed because of a few nitpicks.
I just want my phone call Not at all, I disagree because of points that he brought up that do not reflect the overall game.
Michael Andrews fuk u
Fuck you ,NieR:Automata Is the best fucking game ever
Just finished this game and I'm still trying to pick my jaw up off the ground. Speechless! That's all I can say. Speechless. This review hit it right on the head with his quote 'This is a game of the generation'. Absolutely stunning! PLEASE tell me there will be a follow up to this or sequels to come.
Mates there’s gonna be a sequel 🥳
Omg seeing this footage makes me soooooooo thankful my first experience playing this game was on the PS5 with the 60fps ps5 upgrade!!!! Loving it so far
Skill Up I love you man but seriously, you can't button mash in DMC or Bayonetta.

Easy Allies did an excellent review.
Brilliant Review of God of War! I've just started this game myself as I just recently got a PlayStation 4 Pro and the open few hours are so incredible! The graphics are great and the gameplay is unrivalled in this genre as you mentioned. I'm excired to progress more in the story.
love your videos man .keep up the good work
DUDE! a laymen and a skillup video dropped at the same time!!! i dont know what to do... watch and pause switching between videos i guess............
Split screen FTW
can never have to much ralph
Watch skill up first you can watch the gaymen porn later
never ever seen a 19 mins review in my life, not disappointed at all! thanks for the spoiler free review man i appreciate that :]
@skill up you have no idea how happy i am to hear this. GOW is one of my all time favorite franchises and after a super depressing year for gaming i really needed this.
God of War is my favorite game thanks for sharing your thoughts. I already Preorder this game I can't wait!
i fucking love this guy. i watch and enjoy alot of reviewers, but skill up is just so REAL.
Wow! Definitely getting this!
I’ve played through it 3 times. Will probably play it again in a year
Going back through your old videos because I've already watched all your current ones lol... this review holds up well, really well. I came late to the God of War party and it somehow still lived up to the hype. One of my favorite gaming experiences in general, and I played it right after BoTW (like my second favorite gaming experience). My partner--who plays games every once in a while--would literally just sit on the couch and watch me play because the story and visuals were that good.
Wow such praise, you've really tempted me to get it
The fanciest, most polished Aussie we've ever produced. Great review, super engaging and informative.

"With Devil May Cry and Bayonetta, you can't just button mash your way to victory"
Spotted the guy who plays the games on the easiest difficulty.
SetnaroX yeah he fucked up saying that about devil may cry and Bayonetta. Play that shit on hard and see if you can button mash through
LN2233 definitely. Especially first Bayonetta. Dodge offset is one or my favorite game mechanics in recent games. Watch combo videos on og Bayonetta. You cant button mash that shit. Mad creativity in that game.
SetnaroX um I suck and these types of games and Bayonetta 1 and dmc are pretty easy idk what ur talking about... But granted this game doesn't look hard either so idk. But granted on hard or above yes but it's only because of enemy damage is ridiculous
Gary Purdy thats why u can't button mash on hard u have to use combos to deal damage (good damage) and combos need timing and practice so if u want to play on hard u have to do combos and to do combos u need to spend a lot of time practicing and timing and even than when ur fighting a big enemy or a boss the game plays loud music so ur probably gonna screw up until u can do it while being calm
Gary Purdy Bayonetta was made with modes for everyone in mind. If you're casual you'll go normal or auto mode so you can pass it and enjoy it. But it's definitely intended for more hardcore gamers when you get into the higher difficulties based on the combat mechanics having a high ceiling for creativity and mastery. I'm sure God of war mode on this new God of war is similar. So this dude is saying he plays games like Bayonetta on easier settings. More serious gamers have a lot of room for experimenting with combo mechanics. Bayonetta is the most creative game I can think of in this regard. I'm talking the original Bayonetta. The sequel is more casual but still fun. Devil may cry 3 on ps2 was set to hard automatically. If you played it when it came out you'd know it wasn't easy. The remastered version is easier though. Check this out. You can't button mash this type of thing. These are not easy. m.czcams.com/video/bKtePkxZe70/video.html
This review is amazing and I truly appreciate how you're actually spoiler free. A lot of reviewers nowadays have spoilers even when they say they're spoiler free
