Something missing

This is my 4th God of War game finished in the last few weeks and I wonder if I might be getting a bit burned out on this series.

It's funny that this game is the most modern in the series by far, looks amazing and had the most interesting story; yet I found it to be a bit of a drag to play and I have no idea why.

It's almost like everything is better but somewhere along the way the charm was lost.

This game is certainly the easiest one so far; I can't imagine I died more than 5 times while playing this game to the end compared to the first 2 games where I certainly died over 100 times in each.

If anything I guess I prefer the rage the first two games inspired in me to the empty rage of Kratos in this game.
