It's 2018 by a long way for me.
They took out most of the "rargh, Kratos smash!" angst of the previous games and gave us a heartfelt tale of a father and son. The viking setting is a great change of pace. The gameplay is obviously different, but not in a way that's worse. And the optional post game enemies are a real challenge. Sigrun especially is on par with anything I've faced in the Souls games.
I did have to suffer some of the worst pronunciation of Icelandic I've ever heard in my life. It's almost worth it to see my wife wince every time somebody says Niðavellir in GoW Ragnarok.
