too many people don't have the imagination like before they don't have the taste for Greatness :wow nor Hunger
Much as I really don't like him nowadays for the shit he has said and what he's allowing his son to do to himself, they really should've brought David Jaffe back for GOW Ragnarok, as he absolutely would've brought the spectacle.

Fuck that, dudes a shell of his former self on top of everything else. Too much of a soy cuck now to make anything resembling God of War
 
The first Thor fight literally ended with him getting punched full force in the mouth, once he had sufficiently pissed Kratos off by threatening his son and going "THERE he is, there's the God of War."

Norse Kratos isn't WEAKER than Greek Kratos, he just holds back most of the time unless he has reason not to, such as with Baldur, Thor, Heimdall, Odin etc. Because he DOESN'T want to destroy another world on a blood soaked rampage, which is fair enough quite frankly.

Greek GoW is more hax, Norse GoW by all accounts is at least as strong if not stronger, regardless of how toned down the spectacle is.
 
a punch from power of hope kratos would had thor cui'd, so yeah

i get your point :mjlol

Fuck it then, find a time machine and go back in time to get a prime David Jaffe, who still has his balls attached. Prime Jaffe would've had the Thor fights be some of the most epic shit in gaming, instead of what we got, primarily for a second fight, which was ass.

Dudes a fucking deadbeat loser with no balls at all these days.
 
i never called norse kratos, weak, he still quite strong

just not as strong as his prime state, and the stuff/feats i have seen in the greek saga, are more impressive, especially hax wise
 
kratos vs thor round 2 should had been superior to kratos vs poseidon, spectacle wise

ferocious and testo

That's why I said it seems like he's weaker, because he's burying his true self.

At the end of their fight, some of his true self leaked out when Thor threatened his boy, and Thor got to see some of the man who single-handedly took down a pantheon.

Not all of it though, otherwise, Thor would've been looking up at Kratos, and not the other way around, before the nine realms started swimming in blood. :heston

I do agree Ragnarok was disappointing just to be clear, though my issue with Kratos' characterization in that game is more that he's way too passive than anything else, with Atreus and Freya pushing the plot forward more than anything else.

Doesn't help that I never really came around on Atreus (I did like Freya though), I still think he's annoying and Santa Monica are several levels of delusional if they think they'll ever get away with making GoW game focusing on just him with no Kratos.

Devil May Cry remains the only one of these stylish action series that successfully introduced and built up a potential new protagonist that I could actually play an entire game as without complaint. :maybe

They went way too hard on the 'grounded' angle for the new GOW games. Ragnarok really should've gone back to the days of old, when it comes to spectacle.

Can you imagine round 2 of Kratos and Thor, where at first we have control, but then after the first phase, which sees some scene transitions and hefty damage done to Asgard, we then switch over to Atreus' gameplay, and through him, we see Kratos and Thor battling it out in the background, tearing everything apart like absolute savages, as merely an after-effect of their battle, as we do our thing with him, before switching back to Kratos again, for the second phase of the Thor boss-fight, which could've been even wilder.

I mean, come on, they already had a lore piece in the previous game where Thor's and Jorm's clash sent the latter back in time, so why not have Kratos and Thor clash, mess up the world tree in the process, and send them flinging across every other realm as a consequence, which they also mess up a good deal in their wake, before ending up right back in Asgard again,
by or near the end? It's the finale of the Norse saga, after all. Why not go as big as possible for it? Why hold back then, of all times? :wow
What we should've gotten with Kratos vs Thor, round 2. :wow

I’d use that Time Machine to also go back to 2004 and prevent Jason Rubin from hiring Neil Cuckmann and have Naughty Dog stick to fun platformers and racing games more too.

I think they should've just aged him up into a young adult, instead of a teenager. Already went through dealing with annoying boi Atreus in GOW 4. Would've been way better, if they'd made him fully grown, and skipped all that cringe teen dialogue they tried, with African Angrboda, in that god awful and tediously long section in Jotunheim.

Nah, keep him around until TLOU 1 is made, as that was a good, if overrated, game.

After that, make something happen to get him kicked to the curb, so that TLOU 2 never happens. :mjlol
