Kratos is such a lame character

Kratos isn't lame. He's just the manifestation of ideas that teens and tween associate with masculinity.

I bet if a strong woman who was also pretty but not too pretty and could manipulate men and ascend to power, you'd be saying she's lame right now.

And that's just boring.  Give me something like Gordon Freeman, a giant nerd who I can identify with doing awesome things and that's cool.  Give me something like Kratos constantly doing the same expected brutal characters and it was interesting when he first appeared on the scene, now it's just boring.

Then you, my friend, are not Krato's intended demographic.  Freeman resonates more with 20-something year old nerds, and Kratos resonates more with teens and tweens.  Doesn't make either lame.
