So its confirmed that the new game is set in Norse mythology? If so how is this explained when they are still using Kratos as a character?
Egyptian mythology has a lot of dope shit to play with.
Personally, I would have preferred an Egyptian setting. Fighting mummies and sphinxes sounds radical. On the bright side, Norse mythology allows some really awesome dragon boss fights.
I thing God of war will always stay cool. It's the only game series I know of where you beat the hell out of gods. If that's not cool then I don't want to be hip....I'm sure they'll use it next if God of war continues could be cool
At least it would have looked less like The Last of Us, Horizon, and Days Gone this way.
Nah I want Kratos to take on Jesus, Muhammed and you know what, he can putch Buddha in the gut too.
Edit: Or rip off Shiva's arms and beat em to death with them.
Are you two atheists or something?There's always time for this someday
They should also do David Jaffe's vision of Kratos killing Jesus and expand it to all 3 major religions today with Moses, Abraham, Muhammad, Satan, the Angles and God being bosses...HUGE potential but will never happen as it offends too many people and is a really big risk to take
Holy shit, lots of potential there.I'm personally looking forward to their take on the Jörmungandr.
I read this so many times as a kid:

I'm not too familiar with mythology chronology. After Norse, is it still possible to go do Egyptian, or was Egyptian in an era before Norse mythology? Both sound rad though. I'd still like to see a dark Egyptian setting, whether it's God of War, or a different series.
This is still a stupid comparison.
It's a risk and reward. Like tell me who wouldn't play a game where you beat up God. Fox would have a field day thoThere's always time for this someday

Egypt was one of the earliest Myth's. But if they want to tackle current day religions as well then well.. It's mixed information.
Egypt can come at any time they want to story-wise. But a story about Kratos great great grand father or grand mother (on his mother side) killing the Egyptian gods would be entertaining.
edit: And people should be excited for Norse myth just because we can get God Of War: Ragnarok.
Are you two atheists or something?
Not that I mind, I'm not a religious person at all.
Holy shit, lots of potential there.
Nordic is overused?
I hope you're not talking about the Thor movies, that doesn't count...
The hell is this? lolAt least it would have looked less like The Last of Us, Horizon, and Days Gone this way.
Well, no one worships those old Gods anymore, so no one gives a shit if a video game character butchers them. Imagine the backlash if Kratos murdered Jesus, or even worse, Prophet Muhammad. Them terrorists will be on the President's doorstep.I believe in the Old Gods.
But why are you asking us, because the religions we stated are more popular? Everyone here are calling for a mass murder of the entire Egyptian pantheon and no one bats an eye!

Japanese Gods, Aztech, hell even Indian would be industry.
Kratos vs. All the Mythologies would be interesting. And when Kratos runs out of Gods they can all be revived and then he must fight every single one of them at once.
