Reviews
The creator is discussing a newly revealed God of War spin-off and gives clear personal impressions rather than just reporting facts. He says it looks awesome, praises the insane combat and off-the-charts production value, while briefly noting skepticism about whether it will feel like a true God of War game without Kratos as the lead.

They spend a meaningful section discussing the new God of War game focused on Laufey and give clear personal impressions. They say the gameplay looks pretty cool, the combat looks promising, and they have no problem with playing her as long as the game is fun, but they also note disappointment that it is not a Kratos-led game and question whether it justifies taking resources away from the main series.

The creator is clearly giving a personal critique of God of War, saying the newer games are not very good to him even if they are not bad. He argues the series lost what he liked about the older entries, comparing it to The Last of Us with swords and saying he prefers the simpler, more over-the-top style instead of the newer self-discovery story focus.

Asmongold spends a large portion of the video reacting to and judging the new God of War direction, especially the shift away from Kratos as protagonist. He repeatedly says the game looks dull, uninspired, too cutscene-heavy, and less appealing than a safer Kratos or Atreus-led sequel, while predicting it will be less successful because of these choices.
