I've always been in the middle with it. Never played the original trilogy but did finish the first that was set in Norse mythology and haven't gotten Ragnarok despite hearing many great things about it.

I tried to play through the first game on PS2, but it was too dang hard.
I tried to play through the second game on PS2, but it was even more impossible.
Then I played the first PSP game, Chain of Olympus. Didn't really care for it, didn't bother to finish it (also it was hard).
Next I played the 2nd PSP game, Ghost of Sparta. And you know what, that was actually decent, and fairly well balanced. As a result I finished it. First God of War game I ever beat. Nothing to write home about, from what I call, but wasn't a waste of time to play either. I enjoyed it well enough.
Then years later I finally played God of War 3, when I grabbed the God of War Collection for PS3 during the PS4 era. Also a good game, also well balanced, challenging but fair, and I finished that one too. I recalled that people really liked that one, and said it was the best in the series up to that point. I agree.
At some point there was a prequel, God of War: Ascension. Never played that one. No idea how people feel about it either.
A lot of friends and other people I knew were ranting and raving about God of War 4. Heard a lot of good things about it online too. Eventually got a PS4 during the last year of its generation, and I grabbed a brand-new physical copy of GoW4 for $10. Also turned out to be a good, enjoyable game, and I finished it. So I am looking forward to playing God of War 5: Ragnarok. Too bad I didn't know at the time that Sony was gonna start putting their games on PC (and no one could have ever imagined they would do this), otherwise I never would have gotten a PS4, and would have bought all those games on PC. Oh well. Now I know wassup though, and I will only be playing Sony-exclusive games on PC from now on.
Well, maybe the remakes will be my chance to finally beat 1 and 2. I did hear that the original voice actor for Kratos is returning for the remakes, so that's awesome. One question remains though: are they gonna bring back the sex mini-games too?
