In this corner weighing in with a ton of attitude, we have Kratos, protagonist of a trilogy of titles (two in release and one upcoming). Kratos hails from Sparta and enters the ring with a record of several thousand wins and just a few respawns.
In the opposite corner, there is War, one of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse. A nether-being, War is not interested in right or wrong, only in killing anything that stands before him!
In the third corner is Dante, a Crusader who screwed up during a trip to Jerusalem and who stalked a woman, not his wife, into the bowels of hell. "
With God of War: Ragnarok launching on PC later this month, we decided to take its prequel for a spin on the Steam Deck OLED. Fortunately, the game looks and runs admirably with consistent frametimes and sharp textures.
Whatever form the next God of War game takes, it needs to be clear about what role Kratos is playing, lest the franchise lose direction.
I'm pretty sure it'd be a major mistake having Atreus as the main character in the next GoW. Seems to me like at best people tolerate him and his gameplay sections.
Ideally the story for the next game would be that Atreus has gone missing in Egypt, Kratos gets mad about it, picks up Mimir and goes on a god killing rampage.

The point of Ragnarok's ending is to show that Atreus is his own man now. Having Daddy Kratos save him in Egypt after getting himself into trouble would just undo his entire character development.
The point was more to do with getting Atreus out of the way rather than him being saved. Let's say he's off on his own adventures then and invent another reason for Kratos to be in Egypt.
Could be that Kratos thinks he's been captured or killed as motivation but at the close of the game it turns out Atreus has been up to his own shady shenanigans.
They need to bring back the "God of War" in God of War. I was expecting to unleash hell and fury in Asgard against Thor that they really talked up in the first game but all we got was brooding middle aged dad drunk in a beer hall. Ragnarok was still "good" but I left that game expecting a lot more.
Tried Rag... just couldn't get into it. Felt like more of the same. I would welcome a Kratos only game again.
Now that Death Stranding has landed on iOS, here are five other PS4-era blockbusters that we'd love to have to play on our iPhones at any time.
Are you ready to RUMBLLLLEEEEE!?
At first I thought it was DMC Dante. If it were then Kratos would have had a handful.
kratos sodomizes both with they're own swords.
kratos owns his and smashes dantes head into a greece statue and slams him to hell. HEROES LIVE HEROES DIE, THE REST CAN KISS THERE BUTTS GOODBYE! kratos ftw baby! in my opinion
Dante is prone to fainting spells. He would look at Kratos, fall down and have a vision. And even in his vision Kratos would beat him down. Have to watch out for War, though. That's the dark horse (pun intended).
