The bifrost realm traveling, the inspiration drawn for the realms (Helheim and Alfheim especially!), the gods portrayed, it was all just a fruit to behold. this is where it gets probably waay more subjective but I loved the Norse-mythos inspired world of GoW.
Admittedly, both games have pretty forgettable side quests, with an edge to Witcher for the contracts but (as someone who did all of them for the Plat) even those get kinda stale as they often are just enemies you have faced before with slight combat tweaks/rescales. I can look back at GoW and nearly every main story quest was capped off by epic moments or boss battles. The Red Baron questline is probably the best quest series in Witcher 3, but a lot of the sidequests and even some main story quests feel like they lack gravitas. The story for both games are great but my vote is still with GoW. Combat in the Witcher does not drastically change from tutorial to the final boss fight. Witcher has incredibly unidimensional combat, you will only use swords the entire game with things like oils/bombs/etc only complement the sword play, but they themselves are not viable as standalone weapons (at least this is my take when playing on Death March, the hardest difficulty available). It's not as intricate at other hack and slash titles like DMCV, but it's still great. You seen those GIFs of the combat in GoW? Stuff like that is possible and so much fun to pull off. I think the replay factor Witcher has edges it out over God of War for me.As someone who Platinumed both GoW 2018 and Witcher 3 - My vote absolutely goes to GoW.Ĭombat in general is much more fun in GoW with great variety of spells/move sets. You could say that God of War has 7 games, but new GoW is basically a soft reboot and it's not as well established. World/World building - Witcherverse has 8 books, three games and multitude of other supplementary sources to draw on.Character interactions - Hard to say in regards to side characters but I can safely say that the relationship between Kratos and Atreus is more fleshed out in GoW than the realtionship between Geralt and Ciri in Witcher 3, which left a bit to be desired.Side quests - Draw in terms of quality, Witcher in terms of quantity.On the other hand though, Witcher has Qwent.
The fighting system is way more responsive and challenging. I haven't finished new God of War yet, but I think I can safely compare at least few things:
