What is there to be into? The graphics are nice but the plotline outside of the very first game was paper-thin, filled with plotholes, and later games threw out retcons left and right to try to pathetically convince us that Kratos' choices weren't his fault. It's a hack and slash game. Hacking and slashing is literally what you do for 95% of the time you spend with the game. What else is there to be into but combat, combat, combat?
And I'm a lil tired of seeing the "the formula got old" comment. It didn't get old...we just wanted a game that didn't butcher the mechanics like Ascension did. Then Ascension didn't sell well and Sony ignored the fact that they butchered the game and made up this "it got old" narrative while ignoring their own mistakes. And, boy, had they promoted Ascension as heavily as they've promoted this one, it sure would have gotten more attention.
The story to me is better than you received it. And the puzzles while not hard were always fun to do in between combat. And I did think the "formula got old". But that was more from a story stand point, than a gameplay stand point. I was tired of seeing ol' yelling Kratos get mad for the 1,000th time and never get relief.
