What's next, GoW: Infancy?

Perhaps they can incorporate Yoshi and have him carry bawling Kratos around. It worked for Mario and made for some solid games.

I do say I normally dislike prequels but are we really playing these GoW games for the plot? If the game is decent, I doubt I’ll care why Kratos is slaughtering people.

Cross-dressing Thor, Loki raped by a horse (birthing Odin's steed), Ice Giants trolling the gods, etc

To be fair, the Greeks have equally messed-up stories and they’ve somehow been “altered” out of the GoW version of events. I’d imagine a Norse version would do the same. At least Dante’s Inferno didn’t pull the punches. Egyptian could be fun but there’s less personality in those fellows.

Im gonna buy and play the game anyway but im tired of the 'road to redemption' theme..

Agreed. Kratos is unique in that he’s a legit sicko, psychopath, total jerk and is blinded by revenge and doesn’t care who burns in his way. Them trying to “redeem” him just makes him like every other “anti-hero” out there. How strange to want to take a unique character and make them exactly like all the others.

Damn, people just constantly bi*** about this game. Get over it.

There’s very little whining about the game in this thread.

The gods are all dead

There are plenty of interesting gods still alive.

no sun, no land, no people. What will the story be about?

Yeah, boy it’s impossible to make a game about a post-apocalyptic scenario. They don’t have any games about that subject.

Seriously though, I’ve always suggested that a battle for Zeus’ throne among the remaining gods could make some interesting stuff.

It would be also ridiculous because they already made us know that kratos committed suicide

And then ruined it by showing that he crawled away afterward so they intended to leave the door open. And it’s not like Kratos hasn’t died before…in fact he’s died in every major game so far.
