Why are they trying to make us feel sympathy for a guy who murdered

>>382967879

because video games aren't for fun anymore, they're for websites to generate ad revenue.

He's about as sociopathic as the player. Kratos could actually be part of some good ludo with the right writer.

Because you the one who murdered literally fucking everybody

> ludo

Because games are mature now!

>>382967879
Why did they feel the need to bring Kratos anyway? Couldn't they have made a new protagonist that would fit in the game world better?

>>382968523

Marketability. GoW has been stagnant for quite a while. Kratos is popular and they couldnt risk making a new literal who, but at the same time they needed to change the fundamentals to make everything look new.

>>382968684
I don't blame them.

Because TLOU sold a lot of copies and got a bunch of awards so now Kratos' has to have a shoehorned paternal relationship.

>>382968359
I remember when people called the old God of War games "mature", a serious game for serious gamers type bullshit, my how the more things change the more they stay the same.

Shut your fucking mouth you lowly corproate thrall , Kratos' story ended and there was no reason to bring him back other than publishers are too scared to gamble on names people won't recognize

>>382967879
The original God of War is my favorite video game ever but I'll be the first to admit that the fucked the story royally in part 3. The trilogy went full Matrix: Revolutions on itself.

>>382969309
Back in the day, "mature" meant tons of blood and tits everywhere.

They want to make him more relatable to the cucks and nu males.

>Why are they trying to make us feel sympathy for a guy who murdered literally fucking everybody with zero remorse
it's an interesting concept, it just depends if they do it right. aslong as they don't do it like a 16 yearold white girl would, then it should be atleast interesting.

Tragic hero.

Wronged by the gods and sought rightful vengeance. Hamartia was him relying on his anger to get through everything. It worked, but he found that after he wasn't given the relief he was promised, it was all he could feel.

Now he feels something else, I guess.

So are we getting an explanation on how the world came back, how he lives, and how he has a son?

the game isn't a sequel, ANON! - cory.

>>382967879
Game is going to be rated T for teen just based on the fact Kratos's son is gonna travel with you.

How do I know this?

Just check the PV. All the blood splatter in the PV looked like paint rather than blood. They are making the blood less realistic and more cartoony.

GOOOOOOOODS

That's what video games are now. Fuck you. Fuck all of us.

To be fair most of them were also assholes.

Also what happened to Aphrodite? Didnt he just fuck her and leave?

Remember the violence in god of war 3? Any recent games have anything similiar to that?

>>382973925

Doom?

As someone with clinical rage issues, it wouldn't be hard to make him relatable. Some times you just gotta' deal with the fallout of what that other guy did when you got angry

>>382967879
because fuck those guys lol

>>382974718
>the other guy
Is that how you cope with being a faggot?

Do they really need to put Kratos on the game which has completely different mythological background?
If they really want to, put him as hidden boss or NPC might work better rather than protagonist.

Will Kratos and his nu-male beard ever stop being funny?

Why didn't they just call it Thor or Odin?

>>382967879
He's a man who had his talents used by the powerful for their gain at his expense. It is literally pretty much the oldest story in the book and it's done surprisingly well.

If you were forced to wear the ashes of your family on your skin you'd kill the gods too if you could. Just because your limp wristed beta generation can't muster up more than a tweet or YT video in anger doesn't mean it's unrelatable to kill for revenge.

Now his son is being threatened. If you stopped sucking cock and had a kid you'd understand. Yeah yeah hurr hurr wife's son. Grow the fuck up if you want to have a proper discussion.

He has no reason to revive after 3, so why he came back to life once again?

>>382976443
He doesn't die in 3 so he's not "reviving"

>>382970267
as if a cuck or numale would have that aesthetic beard and fuck huge muscles.

I played the first God of War nearly ten years ago and loved it. I recently got 2 and 3, are they any good?

They're not trying to help you sympathize, they're trying to help you empathize.

Hey its not impossible.

>>382968103
Ludo is a board game, I mean we COULD play a board game with Kratos, but I dont see that happening
