I'm thinking of getting the collection, but heard mixed things about the fact that they are the sigma games, so now I was wondering if I buy the collection and get the black mod, will I just get the best of both worlds (A cheap collection and well, somewhat the black experience)?

Does the mod work well, and how is it for people who loved the original black games?

If I 100% completed both God of War (2018) and Ragnarök, and I start NG+, are things like lore notes, ravens, side quests, etc. already completed? I’d love to replay the games in the future and focus on the story and the cool new gear that comes with NG+, but I absolutely don’t want to redo some of the side content again (looking at you, Vanaheim).

Can I even upgrade the new gear without doing things like Muspelheim etc?
