So what would make people happy? If Kratos stopped every once in a while, sat down for a drink and cracked some jokes and had a laugh?
Maybe chit chat about his life before everything went wrong during the entire game?
The guy is brutal for a reason. He was a Spartan general and Spartans were already bad ass enough. The guy made a pact with Ares and it ended up costing him to murder his own wife and child.
The damn guy wears their ashes on his skin and a non stop reminder of what he did.
If that was you, would you be smiling every once in a while or cracking some jokes? Would you stop periodically to tell people stories of the better times? No, you would be a lunatic.
That is who Kratos is. He is a Spartan who's acts of brutality cost him in the most severe way and now he is just a man full of rage with nothing left to lose. |
Or like many men/fathers that would break down and cry over the loss of their loved ones, just because it was Greek mythology doesn't mean they were void of love and emotion, even spartans.

Even though I know this is just a movie, I remember in 300 there was a point where the friend of Leonidus' son was killed right in front of him.
He was upset at first, just as Kratos was when he first realized what he had just done.
After that he went into a frenzy.
Did that make his character lame all of a sudden.
It just seems like everyone would be happy if Kratos stopped a view times a game and started crying.
Edit -
Just remembered that the character I just mentioned cried after his frenzy.

300 was a very lame movie as well.
Really though, the death of his family doesn't even really effect Kratos anymore. He doesn't give a shit about them, all he cares about is that HE was wronged.
Dude is having sex minigames... and when he gets the power to go back in time he decides he'd rather kill the gods... rather then say... go back in time and save his families life.
You're actually selling short the one interesting point of Kratos character. He doesn't really care about anyone but himself and still doesn't.

I think the most interested point about Kratos is that he is awesome.

That in no way makes sense.
