GOW 2018. Enjoyed my First game

Discussion

Its gonna be a little long I just want to post my journey of the game.

I started playing GOW 2018 from Nov in my new laptop this is my first game with high graphics. I am yet to finish,

The story is really awesome seeing Kratos as a responsible father trying to avoid fights and his current perspective. Trying to raise atreus better than him. The first dialogue caught my attention is in alfeheim where atreus mentions the dark elves as evil but Kratos will say you don't know the complete story. I never expected this kind of writing for the Ghost of Sparta.

I am at the point of where Kratos and Atreus Raised the Jotunheim tower on the lake. But for the next scene Atreus/mimir mentioned about we are at the end better gear up.

So until this point I haven't completed Musspelheim quest or the Niflheim, so I started working on all the side quests.

It took me a week to complete muspelheim quest,

Man that one quest about where you should not get hit tested my patience to the core, those flying creatures keep on ruining things then I used Atreus crow ruinic instead of the wolf somehow I was able to win.

And the Valkyrie made me rage quit but compared with the One Valkyrie under the Mountain in Midgard, Man she made me Rage quit too many times later only I found out trying her at level 6 was the dumbest idea.

The worst was the Niflheim because initially I didn't buy Ivaldi armour only used the enchantment later only bought it which made me realise I made the troublesome mission more troubled. Then came the Anchor of fog no matter how many times I tried i didn't get it I was at the point of 45000 mist echoes then I finally googled and found the

trick is to : Go left first finish the first area come back to the centre and go right and you will find the anchor of fog on the special area.

But the Revenants are the worst you can get on Niflheim. Hell I even finished the Valkyrie on my first try but those revenants each time took their sweet time going out. The final Realm tears bought a bunch of those Revnants was the worst and I unlocked that 25000 mist echoes Realm tear first which screwed me in the ass a lot So after dying multiple times I cleared the remaining realm tears and finish this as the last. The ice revenant is the worst.

Now I am planning to grind on both Musspelheim for smoldering embers and Niflheim for upgrading the armours to level 8.
