![]() He is honest with his son and shows humility whenever he left Atreus alone and apologizes. Kratos was no longer blaming people for the shit that had happened but instead he was taking responsibility for his bullshit. Atreus really brought a sense of fulfillment to Kratos. Kratos was really learning a lot from his son. It also helped me think about what I wanted for my children when I do become a father. Playing dad of war really made me think about my father. My father passed away when I was eleven to twelve years old. I personally did not have my father around and when he was around, I was not a good kid. ![]() Dad of Warĭad of war really helps you face your daddy issues or at least makes you think about them. We can relate to him more and of course we cannot forget what Atreus brings to the table. Someone who has learned from his past, has humiliation and is trying to be a good father to his son. Like when Baldur showed up we saw a lot of patients in him until of course he was pushed too far. Trouble does find Kratos but he does not go looking for trouble anymore. The scars that the chains of Olympus leave are covered with bandages and Kratos hides it from his son. Kratos is ashamed of his past and does not want his son to see it. He lived in peace with his son and had found a new purpose. Realizing all that he had done in Greece, he knew that he had to change. He is not the same person and he is able to control his anger around his son. When the game starts immediately we see a changed man. He moves there to start a new life and hopefully not make the same mistakes. However, he is a god, the last Greek god standing and so he found a way to Midgar, where the Norse gods resided. He destroyed everything so there was no point in living anymore. So in the end of God of War, Kratos seems to have committed suicide. Kratos was not a likable character but the franchise did well. This is why no one liked Kratos and the honestly, gamers played God of War because of the action. Kratos was a beast and killed mindlessly many times. There was nothing that he loved more than to watch his enemy scream in pain. Kratos was just full of anger, hatred, vengeance and just pure destruction. He then had to bring the Titans to Mount Olympus so that he can destroy all the Greek Gods. Then he fought Zeus and by accident he killed Athena instead. He gave his life to Aries so that he can live but that turned out to be the reason why his wife and daughter were killed. Not only was he an asshole that destroyed anything in his path but he caused most of the drama in the first place. Kratos was always blaming other people for what happened to him yet most of the shit that happened were his fault to begin with. Aries gave Kratos the blades of Olympus, turning him into an ultimate weapon.Įventually Kratos killed Aries in vengeance and then took his place as the God of War. He did everything he could to win battles to the point that he gave up his soul to the god of war himself, Aries. Kratos was a Spartan soldier that went up the ranks in his army and became a leader. So lets starts by going back to the old games. If you a feminist, you will not like the old God of War games but the new game will be much more enjoyable since Kratos is now a changed man. If you are a sensitive person you might recent Kratos or even hate him. Instead of helping the soldier, Kratos comes and pushes him off. I remember a scene where Kratos is crossing over a ledge of a mountain and a soldier is hanging from the ledge. That might have been fine for a movie but in a video game you are playing as the character himself and so when you play as an asshole, it hurts. I think this was necessary because in the previous games, Kratos was an asshole. The first thing it did right was to change the protagonist and make him more likable. God of War for PS4 had two things that it did right. Unless you are really old school than that is a different story. People want a story, not just to play a game. That is why video games like the Last of Us and Life is Strange are making big bucks. Now a days, a video has to be able to tell a story much like the movies or a TV show. However, we are not here to talk about the gameplay but rather the writing of the story. It managed to keep a similar style from the previous games to the transition of the PS4. This game really does the deserve to be one of the top RPG/ Adventure games in the world. Kratos went through a huge change from the previous games to the new and improved game. God of War for the Playstation 4 should have been called, Dad of War.
