The Norse Mythology angle was pretty much confirmed in a leak two months ago apparently
. It seems some people want a new character to play rather than Kratos, but I'm sure a well-written story will do this justice.
I'm sure someone will take issue with it being culturally inappropriate for a Greek god (demigod?... forgot) to shit all over Norse gods (perhaps even literally? You neeever know
), given that many still believe in various denominations of Odinism (a segment of which are white supremacists...
awkward). Look forward to the games where he takes on Jesus and Muhammad though
. J/K. I think it'd be more appropriate to go after earlier myths of the middle eastern region, which were amalgamated into the "monotheistic" Abrahamic god(s). Or... Kratos takes on the Indigenous Australian Dreaming creation gods, etc. You name it, really. Will be interesting to see, if they continue in this way, what they deem to be "safe" myths to write about.
