I've played a little over all the main ones and I've never gotten into them. I've never been a fan of the button masher beat'em up genre. I didn't care for Dante's Inferno either and all my friends raved about it. I'm a huge old school Castlevania fan but I didn't like Lords of Shadow. I dig hot chicks with long hair but I didn't care for Bayonetta. I did like Asura's Wrath, but I think only because it's so damn crazy and more of an interactive anime than a game.

The only beat'em ups I like are all old school ones like Golden Axe and I think it's only because of nostalgia. God of War just never appealed to me as a game. Part of it could be that I don't like Kratos at all. Not even a little bit. He'd make a great villain but as a hero he is the opposite of what I want to play as.


He is an anti-hero.

Oh I get that. Believe me I know an anti-hero when I see one. The Punisher is an anti-hero I like. Kratos is not. He is completely unlikable in my opinion.

You'll only be able to like Kratos if you care to know about his past. Do you know that Kratos was tricked into killing his own wife and daughter by the God Of War, in which he had put his faith? And then the Gods tried to kilL him innumerous times? And he remained prisoner of his deeds forever? Anyways what matters most is that the the combat is thrilling and exciting as hell, besides being full of blood and gore. Also the epic sense of scale and boos battles is what lures me to the series.

This right here shows the misconception of Kratos for those who have not played the franchise. He is was is known as an anti-hero. To understand the character of Kratos all of the games must be played in order. Thew newest game of Ascension will go deeper into who he was as a human being and his family life despite his issue with the furies. If you hate characters like Kratos, I am sure in comics you must also hate Wolverine, Punisher, the Hulk or even Roscharch.

I've beaten God of War, God of War II, and just last night God of War: Chains of Olympus.

So I'm making some good progress. One strange thing: although I would rank God of War and God of War II over it, Chains of Olympus actually endeared me to the franchise more than any other. So I'm very eager to continue the series.

Have you tried the other difficulty settings or you just beated them in normal?



GOW 1-3 plat all of them

I've beaten everything except Ghost of Sparta. To me they are good games, but not amazing ones. Sames as kain_kusanagi I find Kratos to be very unlikeable.

Ghopst Of Sparta would majke you understand Kratos' character much more.

Ghost of Sparta shows you why Kratos becomes so blindingly angry that he must destroy Zeus. I am sure after you beat that game you'll find out wich madhy God of War 2 picks up the way it does (which makes no sense if you dont play GOS) immediately after. Ascension delves into his life more as a family man, before he lost his way.

Just normal. With so many games to play, I rarely linger on one game unfortunately.

Never played them. The Ascension trailer has really has my attention though, so I think I'll probably start out with that one. As a prequel it won't spoil the others though, right?


I actually think you will spoil God Of War One

 

Has something to do with his family, wich is something that in the first one you get to know from time to time
