Now that we have “relatable dad Kratos” I don’t really want to go back to the original games.

[–] TrousersMcPants@lemmy.world 9 points 10 months ago (1 children)

The new games I honestly think improve the originals. It makes it far more interesting than just the revenge story it was before

[–] Dariusmiles2123@sh.itjust.works -2 points 10 months ago (2 children)

Yeah I agree. Even the new ones aren’t great storywise, but Kratos being a dad is way better than the old scenario I don’t even remember.

[–] Someone64@lemmy.world 5 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Wasn’t he a dad in the old ones, too? I vaguely remember something about him protecting his family or some kind of tragedy related to them.

[–] Cantankerousnuts@sh.itjust.works 6 points 10 months ago (1 children)

yes he was already a father. Ares tricked him into killing his wife and child. so his whole revenge arc spirals from that.

[–] Lautaro@lemmy.world 5 points 10 months ago

Even his skin is white/gray because it's covered in the ashes of his wife and daughter.

[–] ObsidianZed@lemmy.world 1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Right? It humanizes the half-god. And yet I just saw earlier that that was David Jaffe's (original creator) biggest complaint of the new Kratos.

[–] Dariusmiles2123@sh.itjust.works 1 points 10 months ago

I was also surprised to read that. I even tried to forget who Kratos was in the first games to focus on the new ones.

[–] _ed@sopuli.xyz 1 points 10 months ago

Kratos was a bit one note in the originals.
