I have the 2018 game but I’ve only played it once in 2020. I was furloughed during Covid and I became a short-term alcoholic, and I was pouring as much bourbon in my body as it could take. I booted up the game one day during a very drunken bender, and it gave me motion sickness, so I haven’t tried it since.

I own the first one but haven't played it so I actually don't have an opinion on it. I just like this really dumb meme.

I finally played/finished this game myself. And. That was a story. I don't even know if I can manage to organize all of my thoughts on it. Just, loved the use of themes running through the entire writing. The moments of Kratos showing real vulnerability were tragically beautiful. All of the deep unspoken fears, the doubts, the growth. A classic Hero's Journey, start to finish.

I think, ultimately, my final thoughts are this: This story is a lot of things from a lot of angles. A man learning to be a father, a son growing into a man, family, fate, love, loss. But. What I think the true crux of the story is, is a journey of healing. The whole end of the world fight for survival just seems to completely take a back seat to watching Kratos work through his trauma, while trying desperately not to pass it on to his son.
