Anyone else hate Kratos as a character?

[jesus kung fu magic]

I feel that when David Jaffe left, so too did kratos's soul.

Kratos became an incoherent mess of a character from the beginning of GOW2....havent played Ghost of sparta yet , but I dont have that high of a hope that kratos's character development progress is more of the same(by that I mean none at all)....just playing it to have the story I dreamed of involving his brother from the snip-it in GOW1
