That's why Kratos will take a peaceful retreat to the north, make some wine and build a few bridges.
That man need to reconstruct himself with the help of the faeris ! XD

Awesome! God of War 4! I really don't mind if Kratos is the main character again. It would be interesting to see him fight not for revenge anymore and as an angry warrior.

The gameplay leaks are very interesting.
- There is Kratos, with beard;
- The setting is the Norse Mythology;
- Kratos will visit Alfheim, “Land Of The Fairies”, one of the Nine Worlds and home of the Light Elves (concepts show the Wall and the Temple Door);
- Kratos will be in one or more prison;
- Kratos has an Axe, with wich he can cut vines and create bridges/walkways;
- The surrounding environment could interact with the character (if Kratos brushes-up against the vines, they expell visible spores).
Looks like we'll get a new combat system and a weapon that can interact with the environment in cool ways. Also, the colour palette is amazing.

You then claimed that he is angry because he is sad over losing his family. He isn't - Ares died in GoW1. |
Are you just ignoring my point or what?
I said that just because you get revenge that doesn't mean you aren't angry anymore.

The Norse or North People and the Nordic Gods date farther back than that. Been around for over a thousand years, in the middle ages the famous Norse Vikings raided across Europe. Safe to say the Nordic religion is public domain and no company can claim ownership over the stories or gods within it. |
Yeah they were, but we have only discovered stories and artifact's from around 700s, so factually based on solid evidence, the only knowedge we know of the vikings are from 700s to around 1011 or something, where King olav den hellige converted the vikings by forced to christianity, around the time when the inquisition started. So we know nothing of the vikings before Ragnar, Harald Hårfagre etc etc, because at that time, the vikings were still limited to the raids by crusing around the cost-lines to russia and East-Europe because they feared the open sea, until they discovered a way to navigate. So i am only talking about the recorded history. I did mess up with the 1700s. it were the 700s to 1010s. It's just so sad that the harsh seasons and nature of Norway, which 90% of the land consist of bed-rock and 3 feet with dirt on top of it, so object's manage to decompose completely before we find it, we are lucky to find steel and silver, , we actually had to base our research on Icelandic-culture because they have lived with the language and the viking culture for the longest, even though they did change through the years, stories are best preserved there, the problem is that they only know the things that happen before they colonized Iceland and a little information from travellers before the end of the viking Era.
Everything about the Viking-Era is pretty much a mystery, that probably will never be discovered.
It's so funny to know that the Vikings found America, because they were looking for greenland and all they found was ice, so they went further west and actually believed they stranded on Greenland until they moved back to the old-Scandinavia 10 years later.

Lol what? God Of War is fantastic, better than any other IP Sony has.
| AEGRO said: I personally believe the series has to evolve, with a change of name included. The game is called "God of War" because Kratos took the place of Ares on GoW 1. If its going to be a whole different cast, whats the point of keeping the name? I know, the brand is attached to it, but it wouldnt make any sense. I agree that they have to give Kratos a rest, make a character with more personality around it, more charismatic and give him reasons to go against whatever Gods he wants to kill. This time it wont be enough to be GGRRRRR IM ANGRYYYY GRRRR, i expect top notch story telling. BTW, i LOVE the Gof of War series so im not hating Kratos in any way. Im a strong believer that franchises have to evolve and be killed when necessary. I dont support milking from anyone. |
God Of War is actually a very flexible title, as it could mean the God Of War of any mythology, so Santa Monica can do anything with the series as long as it features a God Of War. Also the story telling has always been top notch, its a lot deeper than what it appears to be going just by internet memes. Its actually pretty incredible how the story progressed in all these games, its written and narrated like a novel.
I'm fine if they include Kratos as long as he changes his attitude because he's been angry for a lot of games now, and he has had his redemption so it would be cool if they reveal a different side of his personality. That said I'll be fine if they feature a different protagonist, I play these games for the top notch gameplay, pacing, epic scale, boss fights and the great atmosphere.

Nope. I disagree.
