I honestly can't think of anything other than improving what's already in the first. There's so much good already done that can be improved even more. Maybe more NPCs? Towns, villages, cities. I think that improves a world a lot for me personally
I know it was an amazing game, and i know im likely alone in this opinion and will get a bunch of dislikes. But i really wanted Santa Monica Studio to move onto a new ip. They've grown to be Sony's biggest, and most supported 1st party studio, and i just feel like all that is a bit wasted on doing the same IP 3 (likely 4) generations in a row.
More diverse boss fights.
I rather liked the RPG element. But pretty much agree with the rest of the list.
No puzzles if possible or else just a few.
No Atreus.
More classic boss battles like Hades from God of War 3 that utilize platforming.
Those are my big things but the writer here hit it all on the head!
