I'm going to replay it once photo mode is added.
Photo mode is here.
Don't forget, you can use the Skill Points to upgrade your runic attacks as well and those can be expensive for tier 3.
Does this game get any better after...
Fighting that dragon and removing it's tooth?
I haven't played it in almost 2 weeks and haven't been compelled to do so from what I've played so far.
Man, this game doesn't let up on the combat, does it? I finish off one tough fight, then it's another, and another, and another. Then, when I think I've cleared things for a while, it's another, tougher than before.
I keep waiting for Kratos to take a breather -- sit at a campfire and tell a story or something. I haven't played a game like this in a while, one that is so heavy on the combat. I've never played a God of War game before, either. I guess that's the nature of the series -- lots of fighting. I'm enjoying it, but it's a more tense experience than I'm used to.

Just drop the difficulty for that section. I don't usually do that, but had to for niffelheimDamn, just finished beating that first Valkyrie. I must have died 20 times. I was tempted to turn it down to easy, but I didn't. I felt like that would be an admission of defeat, lol. But man, that was a tough fight. I don't feel a sense of accomplishment, so much as a sense of relief, like "whew, glad that's over."
I know there are other Valkyries, but I'm not going to bother with them. Those are for people who are better at this combat than I am, or who enjoy these tough fights. Not me.
I'm not going to bother with the Musphelheim (?) trials, either. No doubt I'm missing out on some nice loot, but I've never enjoyed progressively harder, timed arena trials. They seem like a chore to me. Fortunately that seems optional, too.

Thanks, I went ahead and did that. Plowed through the first couple arenas. I'll come back for more later.
This is the first game to make my PS4 whirr. It also whirrs a little on Horizon's map, but not in the game. But with God of War, I'll hear it periodically at lots of different points. Seems like it's really pushing the console. It can be a little distracting, but it goes away after 10 seconds or so.
Its possible that the realms we can see but not travel to could be in another game or DLC...

Oh yeah, My fan is on hyper mode for this game. It's obviously pretty stressful.
I would recommend doing the Niffelheim realm because it's easily the best armor set in the game. Just remember to grind the first couple rooms for mist echoes to buy up the armor pieces. DON'T do the chests first! Get the armor and load their enchantments with the Anti-mist ones you pick up (and the talisman). It's much more tolerable if you don't have to worry about the mist timer running out! Then you can do the rounds in the "maze". Play it safe and make sure you get back to the safe zone to "drop off" your mist echoes or you will lose them when you die.
Valkyrie armor is nowhere close for me, but I can't upgrade it because I need the special Asguardian steel and I don't have any.Nifleheim armor is best for that realm but I disagree that its the best overall armor. I find the Valkyrie armor to be the best since all three pieces have their own perks. And I'm not sure if its because of the enhancements I have equipped on the armor or if its the armor itself but my "Luck" stat which determines perk activation is pretty high making those perks activate frequently. Throw on the Infinity Gauntlet talisman and destroy everything.
They have said clearly more than once that this was not and is not the plan.
So yeah. Those realms are definitely coming as DLC.
