FUCKING ALPHA
>>333044708
mind telling me what's going on, so I can be, uh, also outraged about it
>>333044708
king of the assholes
Stuff like this is okay, but God forbid DOA show a nipple or Tracer shows her fully clothed ass
>>333045060
girl begs for mercy. Kratos uses her as a doorstop.. to help another girl on the other side
But it was funny.
>>333045060
He uses her to prop the crank open
Shortly after you leave the room she cant hold it anymore and gets crushed and mangled into the mechanism
If you go back you can see the gory aftermath
You could not get away with this kind of shit nowadays, and I wonder how this part managed to get through unscathed in the hd version
when i grow up i wanna be like kratos
Did they touch up textures and models? Because holy fuck this game still looks fucking amazing, even on PS3
>>333045347
Well she WAS a bitch,
>>333045391
I want whatever it is you're smoking. Everything looks awful except for Kratos.
BROS BEFORE HOES
>>333045440
How? I wonder what she did wrong. She was just scared of Kratos.
got a youtube link?
>>333045227
Are you faggots still complaining about the Tracer pose change?
Provide link to that scene, pleaso.
>>333045503
It actually does look amazing for PS3 though.
>>333045546
lmao I don't even remember what she did. She could have just been stupid enough to stand in kratos's way?
>>333045227
>>333045279
people get outraged about "female objectification" but when a girl begging for her life and is used as a doorstop by the main character they never gave a fuck
>>333045662
>It actually does look amazing for PS3 though.
repeating what you said doesn't make it less wrong
>>333045060
i am not sexist but its annoying as fuck that you forced to 'rescue' her just to use it as door jammer, its stupid gore for sake of gore.
mind that i was angry at escort mission part, not the sexism
>>333045592
This is /v/
People will still complain about that in 2026 even if the average poster was just a baby when overwatch launches
>>333045731
You disregarded the point that the other anon said about its relation to being on the PS3.
>>333045662
She literally did nothing wrong. Kratos untied her, and then shoved her along, and eventually used her as a door stop.
>>333045696
That's because socjus isnt actually about women's rights or equality, it's just about taking a fat shit on something that people they've deemed 'the enemy' enjoy
It's basically internet trolling escalated beyond anything ever seen.
>>333045592
This is our chance to burn the SJWs. BURNN
>>333045546
>>333045662
She didn't do anything from what I remember, she was just poseidon's bitch that Kratos found, so he used her like this because he didn't give a shit about anyone but himself anymore, basically Kratos is the n1 jerk in his own universe.
>>333045696
That's because GoW wasn't marketed towards the general consensus. It was a manly man man fuck blood and gore with your foot game.
>>333045818
Link to a video?
Or at least name of the game, so I can look for it myself?
>>333044708
Why is something like this not cool, but a (male) god getting their eyes plucked out/head ripped off/ etc. is cool?
>>333045818
So? Kratos is an anti-hero at best, it's not like it's out of character for him to be a complete dick to a random innocent.
What, are bad guys not allowed to be bad anymore?
>>333045909
Man that whole part with Poseiden was grusome
Kratos is a huge asshole though, that's what he do
>>333045818
>>333045894
In the eyes of Kratos, she was just another corpse to tread on through hell.
Or maybe showing how little he cared for the weaklings he incidentally kills towards his madness? Possibly.
>>333045795
for the ps3, it still looks bad.
idk what you want
>>333045947
Kratos was a good boy, he didn't do anything. wrong.
>>333044708
If you actually looked closely at the chains, she could just escape easily.
>>333046008
Google PS3 graphics, you might've forgotten how awful everything TRULY looked.
I wish I could play GoW 4.
>>333044708
Kratos has never been a good guy, sadly. Even in the first game when you could kill fleeing civilians.
>try playing GoW again
>Remember between every high point the game has there's tons of shitty filler inbetween with puzzles, getting locked into an arena to kill stuff, and other bullshit
>>333045909
you fought that god he was trying to kill you. Kicking his ass felt good. This section was an escort you kept her safe from the enemies just to us her to open a door when their where plenty of statues to hold open the door.edge for the sake of edge
>>333046108
The chain is stuck on the massive wheel.
>>333045868
By giving them ammo like "an entire board literally shit their collective pants over one pose being changed but the actual model remaining unchanged, skin tight ass hugging latex and all".
>>333046208
It's a big deal anon, the fight for our freedom of speech! That trumps everything nowadays.
>>333045894
> basically Kratos is the n1 jerk in his own universe.
He frees humanity from slavery to the Gods
>>333045904
Gotta look up "Kratos kills Poseidon's wife". Should be there.
>>333045909
Poseidon was standing in his path. She wasn't.
>>333046203
>you fought that god he was trying to kill you. Kicking his ass felt good.
Half of the people or more that Kratos tortured and killed didn't do anything to him.
>>333045904
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R8iMphY-8oo
>>333044708
Kratos isn't a good guy.
>tfw Orkos died for this
>>333046280
By killing the Gods, he pretty much killed off humanity. Making the sea levels rise, blotting out the sun and unleashing the plague. Right dickhead.
I don't get triggered by stuff like this, but it is unnecessarily edgy. In the most juvenile way possible.
Randomly killing people in horrible ways isn't badass it just makes you an asshole.
The only time it was funny was when horrible things kept happening to the ship captain in the first game.
>>333045947
This moment was a moral event horizon that Kratos had never even approached before. After this any questions about the Gods deserving to be destroyed or Kratos in any way being justified (however thinly) are torched and Kratos goes from being an anti-hero to a straight up villain protagonist.
It even cheapens his eventual "redemption" bit at the end and really drags the tone of the game down from warhammer 40k style "everyone is a dick" to straight up edgy teenage fanfiction where the greek gods are surrogates for the author's parents.
>>333046393
We all survived, thats the whole point, droughts, flooding and all natural disasters ended, you see this by his sitting on his throne and seeing that humanity continues fighting pointless wars even with out Gods meddling
>>333044708
>tfw the next GoW removed the sex minigame due to SJW bullshit
>>333046368
That doesn't show her death though...
You know what the best part is?
-IF- SJW's complained about this, they wouldn't have to change the scene at all.
They'd just have to make Kratos black.
Because nothing a black man does can be wrong.
>>333046462
Its a game you fucking wanker, go play pokemon
>>333046670
Kratos is already voiced by a melanin enriched gentleman
>>333046643
It does. She dies offscreen.
>>333046670
epic
>>333046325
most of the civilians he kills is by accident due to his chain blades flying about the place and being pure rage.In the first game a women commits suicide to get away from him. kratos generally feels remorseful about his pathetic state hes in
Kratos is the biggest scumbag alive. Let me try to think of all the fucking asshole things he does, but I know I'll miss several.
>Huge asshole in life who kills his wife and kid.
>Stabs a guy clinging to his sinking ship so he falls in a hydra's mouth.
>Stabs the same guy as he's trying not to fall into Tartarus.
>Stabs the same guy a third time when his soul is summoned to the arena.
>Slams several civilians who are clinging to rails trying not to die, just so he can pass by.
>Pushes a Centurion trapped in a cage into a wall of fire so the cage will set off the weighted slab.
>OP's Pic.
>Murders Hephaestus for trying to protect his daughter.
>Ends up not killing his daughter but still fucks up and she dies.
>Kills Persephone and uses her casket to ram through a wall, destroying it.
>Dooms humanity, killing millions by slaying the gods. All life on Earth is probably extinguished.
>>333046602
stop posting
>>333046623
Well, that's true.
>>333046629
I wonder how much will be taken into consideration for that. It should be easy enough to spot because these games don't really hold back.
>>333046368
I never realized how dogshit the games actually were until watching this.

>>333046720
literally sonyggers
HAHAHAHAH
>>333046769make me
Kratos has done something like this multiple times...in GoW 2 right before the Cerberus boss you crush one of your own soldiers underneth a similar mechanism just so you can get to the boss fight.
>>333046721
Yea, why is no one in the videos staying in that place?
>>333046850
>t.
Looks like someone forgot he's not on Ylilauta, huh Pekka Khan?
>>333046280
An unintentional side-effect of his actions. His only concern was for revenge, and then later for Pandora, and he didn't care about any of the consequences of his actions until the very end. That was the whole point of his character.
>>333046629

GoW2 is the only one I still like after replaying them all. There's too much annoying filler like you mentioned in the others.
>/v/ complaining about "unnecessary edginess" and "over the top" gore
This board is fucking dead
>>333046862
why are you letting a video games offend you so much anon? Do you have nothing better to complain about?
>>333045227
A totally different time. Today, for instance, DC Comics won't even re-release Identity Crisis, because one of the plot points is about rape and they don't want to trigger people by mentioning it.
We live in a prude world now.
>>333046462
Gee, it's almost as if Kratos is supposed to be complete asshole.
>>333046937
Because her death is triggered when she is offscren?
Is GoW the only series where in every installment you are clearly the villain?
>>333044708
Couldn't he have taken some monster corpse instead? Or used a large stone or something. I mean if a corpse is strong enough to jam it, couldn't he just use the brazier thing on the left?
It is weird to me that people flip their shit when a female character is killed. Yes Kratos is an asshole but this also applies to other games with killable females.
>>333046670
Isn't he already black though. He's just literally white because he's covered in ashes
>>333047018
Greek Gods were vengeful and petty, but never this petty.
Also Kratos never turned into a hedgehog or a pigeon or whatever to fuck some bitches, which is just blatant disregard for precedent.
>>333046972
It's either freedom or death, slave.
>>333044708
So what? Kratos is a dick to people. They mean nothing to him. Remember the captain and the Hydra? Kratos kills him without batting an eye then kicks him into the pit in Hades in the sequel. What, he's supposed to be all gentle and caring because this person has a snatch? Fuck off. It was entirely in character and if it hurts your butt then you can fuck off and play a PROGRESSIVE! game.
>>333046907
But that soldier was a male so it's ok.
>>333046749
> Dooms humanity, killing millions by slaying the gods. All life on Earth is probably extinguished.

> I wanna play a good guy I DONT WANT TO DO MEAN STUFF ;(
I agree, this "game" had the worst fucking controls ever, jesus fuck, get some standards, modern gaming.
Gaming's gone downhill since the mid-90s.
>>333047219
I'm talking about the context though. It's suddenly unnecessary when it's a girl? Come on now, grow some fucking balls
>>333045818
Funny enough, dont you have to fight against 100 monsters between her and the door anyway?
Why not just use a monster?other for the sake and edgy and gore of course
>>333045696
GOW3 was made long before SJW infestation, and this scene happens way into the game, so they simply don't know about it. If you showed the scene to them now they'd probably throw a hysterical fit. But it's kind of the point since the whole game steadily shows that Kratos is the biggest asshole around and you are supposed to hate him by this point, kinda like Trevor in GTAV.
>>333047081
In the first game Ares was always shown to be a bigger problem than Kratos was, even though he was still a complete asshole. He didn't really become a villain until the second game. Even when they tried to dial back all the assholery in the series in GoW3, it still showed that everything was Kratos' fault.
>>333047332
Why do you keep putting words into people's mouths?
>Fuck women for XP
>The moans was GOAT in everygame
>>333047083
Why waste time on that.
>>333047332
Nobody said anything about the girl moron, GOW is filled with pointless deaths that are just there to be edgy, this is just one exemple.
>>333046862
>Protagonists have to be good guys
Moron. It's centered on Greek theological mythology and the gods were petty mean-spirited cunts.
>>333047152
its gameplay mechanic idiot, you are literary sent for escort mission with shitty reward. I am expecting SEX or RAPE goddamit!
>>333046951
Kratos should be considered a hero. His timeline follows very closely with Joseph Campbell's model. While he is often portrayed as an "anti-hero", or a hero whose actions are often considered to be that of a villain's, he is still working for the greater good.
>>333047475

>>333047478
Being mean doesn't make you a villain.
Being a cunt who causes everything bad in your life and then blames other and randomly killing people to open doors makes you a villain.
>>333047037
avatar and vertigo still rape and mutilate their way through the industry.
only capeshit stop because they gathered the attention of normies now.
>>333044708
Which game was this from? I don't remember this part.
>>333047592
>would you kill a person you dont know for a person you care?
but kratos doesn't care about Pandora he was going to kill her to use her as a weapon to fight Zeus
>>333047592
But in what way is she required to be killed to save Pandora? How is dragging her all the way to the mechanism is a more viable option than just taking a big boulder nearby?
I couldn't enjoy this series even when I was a teenager, I can't believe there are actually adults who enjoy this.
>>333044708
dick no
please
>>333044708
Yeah it was unnecessary, and I didn't like it. Gore for gore's sake as someone here put it. She was forced to be a sex slave her whole life, only to be eluded that someone was saving, but then is just used as a doorstop.
idk, my heart bleeds for battered women, so maybe I'm not looking at this objectively.
>>333047804
She's whore of Poseidon, fuck her.
>>333047514
>shitty reward
gore lovers disagree with you.
>>333047539
If it was a guy I still think those anons would have said something. A protag doesn't have to be a good guy but they have to at least give you a reason to like them. Kratos is like how that other anon mentioned written by an edgelord witht he gods as a stand in for their parents.
I hate myself for even replying to bait but heres your (You)
>>333047883
I wouldn't say whore is a correct word, considering she was chained in her chamber. That's more of a sex slave.
>>333047625
you should read up on some greek mythology. You know Sony Santa Monica or whoever did this did not invent this whole thing. He is implying that there is an ancient narrative that they are building this on. You sound autistic.
>>333044708
yes it was faggot
>>333047859
Freedom is what you do with what's been done to you. If Kratos would have actually let her go off somewhere, she would have perpetuated the abuse except she'd be the one causing it this time.
>>333048032
That's the dumbest shit I've ever heard.
>>333047539
everybody hate donte and that kid in bully.
>>333046623

You seem to think there's something wrong with that. Games should have something for everybody, but not every game should BE for everybody.

>>333048589
God of War 1 and 2 soundtrack are GOAT
as with every other aspect such as gameplay story and setting, the third is considered the best by IGN and plebeians on this board but pale in comparison to 1 and 2
At the end of the day the God of War series doesn't have gameplay like devil may cry or bayonetta, and all you need to do is mash buttons (square and triangle). But the setting, the story, the atmosphere, and the music of the games (at least the first two) make them must play. There are some pretty great standalone moments in the first two games but the third is completely forgettable
>>333048840
Asura from Asura's Wrath is also one mighty pissed off individual.

You do, you've said it yourself in every post so far.
"It's just gore for gore's sake"
"Waaah waaah gore is too mature for me"
"Gore got old with Mortal Kombat"
A reasonable adult would simply say, "I don't like gore, it makes me very uncomfortable so I will play a game without it".
Clearly, it is not the game for you as you have been told multiple times. There are MANY games without any gore, since you can't handle it without throwing a bitch fit. Go play one of those instead.
>>333047651
>Being mean doesn't make you a villain.
Being a villain literally only means you're an antagonist who's actions directly effect the plot.

I didn't find this any worse than that time in GOW2 where he forces the scribe or whatever to read from the book and then smashes his face into oblivion.
I guess it's sexist now because this is a lady.
>>333048858
There's no argument in your posts. Only MUH FEELINGS, MUH BLEEDING HEART, MUH PERSONAL OPINIONS.
None of those matter. It's not a game for you, not every game has an obligation to be for you. If you are offended by it, put it down and do something else.
>SJW boogyman

You faggots can't HONESTLY be forgetting The Sess's infamous coming out story as an SJW, right? He tried to manufactured a gigantic controversy involving the, "Bros Before Hos" trophy while completely misrepresenting what actually happens in the game and omitting the fact that the achievement's name was a female dev's idea.
He was talking about how Sony had to change the trophy with a patch and shit or Sony would die as a company with their archaic societal ideas. I think the company openly mocked him.

But it doesn't make me uncomfortable asshat, that's what I'm saying. I can handle it as in I don't shiver when I see it, it doesn't make it any less pointless and stupid.

Nah, you're a faggot. I remember little bitches complaining about this scene back in 2010. Go fuck yourself. That scene was great.
Kratos is best when he's a alpha fuckwit he doesn't give a shit about anyone but himself. I am so sick of this obsession with having "good" likable heroes.
Kratos is meant to be a selfish anti hero and he is one and it's great.

He kills 3 scribes by face smashing in that part of the game. Holy shit thinking back on one of those parts I remember one of the scribes kept committing suicide by jumping off a cliff as you walked into the room..can't remember how you stop him though

>>333049507

>>333049359
There's also the guy in the first game who's in a cage and thinks you're going to rescue him but you end up using him as a human sacrifice or something.
lol Kratos is such an asshole that he could almost be passed off as satire
half the bad shit that happens in the game is because Kratos has such a raging hateboner for everyone and he feels the need to murder everything and everyone. fun games, though.
>>333048941
I'll give it to GoW 3, the first climb to Olympus was neat.
Anyone felt kinda weird through 3 ever since Kratos threw a bitch fit about the titans "betraying him" because Gaia had both hands busy and literally couldn't help him without falling herself? and then the fucking stupid "MUH HOPE" part at the end?
It is just fucking pixels.

Anti-hero bullshit can go stuff itself. Kratos is best villain protagonist.

>>333047516

Yeah, by idiots, an antihero is not someone who does evil things, an antihero is someone who is not heroic yet ends up doing something heroic, like woody allen, or the literal personification of antiheroism in games, guybrush threepwood.

no, the antagonist is defined solely by that he opposes the protagonist, no moral measure is applied to either.
>>333049735
yeah i didn't really mind it. kratos being such a dick was a bit tiring but still entertaining.
i hope they leave the IP as it is and go onto something new, though. 3 was pretty good but the series really felt worn and done at that point. i mean how many more Greek gods can Kratos murder?
>>333049774
>villain protagonist
Isn't that anti-hero by definition?
>>333049880
I wasn't defining the term, "antagonist" you illiterate retard. I was defining, "villain".
>>333049774
The problem with the whole scene is how Kratos refuses to use one of the thousand monters in that room, and instead you get railroaded into a escort mission to jam the girl in there.
>>333049774
>villain protagonist.
You know what, I said he was an anti hero before, but even that is stretching it. I agree, he's a villain protagonist.
Only reason I think he might be an anti hero is because he indirectly helped people by killing the sisters of fate, and killing some of the other asshole kids. But it was for selfish reasons.
Yeah he's a villain protagonist and it's great.
>>333049941
defining the "villain" as solely being the "antagonist" in stories is simply wrong.
>>333049931
Obviously the answer is to go international and start murdering other mythologies. I look forward to the boss fight with jesus
Kratos is among the worst protagonists in anything.

Guys I want to play this game because IGN rated it highly but I don't like blood, gore, needless violence, violence against women, muscular or tall males that threaten my own short, weak and flabby nu-male body.
Can we PLEASE get over all these things and clean up the God of War series? How do you expect Kratos to grow as a character if this is allowed in 2016 and how are we supposed to make video games into a mature art form if people are just allowed to enjoy something I don't?
Please sign my petition to have everything offensive removed from the GoW games so that I can play it.

i don't play any of the GOW games so i don't know the answer to this. does anyone else in the entire series die a more painful and gruesome death than this? the space in between the gear and the ground was somewhere around a 3rd of the width of her head. with her hands chained to the gear like that, i imagine her hands and arms were the first to go through that space. it would be painful to have the arms pushed through that space but not enough to split the skin open and spill blood i think. maybe crack the elbow bones. but the moment her head came to that point. it would have cracked her skull and split open her head for the brains to come out. at this point she would be dead. but the pain.. my god.. then as though death is not enough. depending upon the angle of her head when its crushed, her head would crack along her ears, her eyeballs pushed and smooshed into her skull with the rest of her face. Or, her head would split along the back of her head and center of her face. her eyeballs pushed out of her skull and then smooshed. her teeth would've collapsed from out of her gums. as the gear keeps pulling, next her rib cage would be broken, the skin splitting open and the organs spilling out and smooshed. her breasts would split open and spill out the contents and get smooshed. her spine, her abdomen, her hip bones, the thighs would split open and the muscles would spill out and be smooshed as well.
who else in the GOW series dies a death that is more gruesome than that?.. and the idea that this game won so many awards, has a high rating and almost no one in the review industry batted an eye at this scene?

That's not how you turn the tables on an argument. You're the one getting blown the fuck out with the most simple logic possible. If you don't like a game, don't play it. Meanwhile I am LOVING this thread because you're struggling so incredibly hard to make a comeback and "win" an argument just to save some face.
But you don't have to, you're anonymous. You can just slink off and no-one will give a shit.
Or you can continue to embarrass yourself and make everything read your posts and think you're an idiot until I stop replying out of boredom and you declare it a small victory for women everywhere brought to them by their faithful protector in arms.

An anti-hero is someone who strives for "good" but lacks the traits normally associated with that goal: He's not honest, he's not necessarily morally consistent, his methods are questionable at best, he might outright even be insane. But he's still the hero.
Punisher's an antihero(a murderous PTSD:ed vigilante), Wolverine too(bub bub snikt stab), even Batman in his grittier variants, Rorschach, etc.
Just because someone fights the Villains, doesn't meant they aren't one themselves.
Why didn't Kratos use one of the dogs or shield spooks?

No, you literally, LITERALLY defined an "antagonist" as a "villain", you worse-than-illiterate, shitbrained, retard-cunt, that clearly can read, yet can not even remember what he wrote and uses too many commas.
A villain can be a protagonist, making the hero an antagonist.
Also it is "affect" not "effect", fuckface.

>Talk about how the fuck Kratos always found his way
It's almost as if.. there was a prophecy or something that led Kratos forward..

>>333051164
Not him but yes you did. You literally said that a "reasonable adult" would look for other elements that make the game "worth playing."
And the other guy is right in saying that GoW is 90% based on bloody action, which is it's main attraction. I worked at a game store when the original game was released and the only seller this game had was it's violence. There wasn't a single person saying "might this be a good action adventure?", no only thing people were going with was it's violent action. I still remember people bringing back Bloodrayne because GoW was better in that regard.
So yes, you implied it, and no, GoW had nothing else in that regard. If you didn't like the violence, you pretty much didn't like the game. Simple as that. The only thing a reasonable adult would do is say "wtf why didn't I look up a review first" when he doesn't like the game.

All of his "for the greater good" actions were just happy consequences of whatever he was doing at the time, he was a bloodthristy jackass who landed on his position because accepted Ares power so he could kill his enemies and when he murdered his own family he started bitching like a manchild, the gods were all faggots but so was he, he wasn't better than any of the gods themselves

It is for 99% of Americans.
They used "literally" wrong so many times they had to change the official definition of it and write "could of" instead of "could have". Soon it will be considered correct English as well.
It's a dying language. In 4 years from now I assume affect and effect will be synonymous.

you seem to misunderstand dictionaries, a good dictionary just records how people are using a term. it's not "wrong", it's just different. awhile ago, people like you got really pissy about others using "fun" as an adjective, since it was originally only a noun or verb. a large portion of your current "proper" vocabulary was wrong at some point in time.

Guy's a villain through and through. Not once was his intent the betterment of others. He was solely out for his own interests, causing as much suffering on the way as it acquired or that he felt like causing: the slave girl's death was completely pointless from a position of pragmatism.

Well you're one moron who fails to differentiate on pretty much all levels. There's a certain way a syntax works, and if you use a word incorrectly then it's wrong. Saying shit like "I'm just using it differently" is ridiculous.
Also, fun is still a noun. The proper adjective is funny. People using it wrong are people using it wrong. The change you're talking about is something completely different. You're talking about projected terms such as "bitch" or "gay". "Literally" however isn't one of them, and no dictionary will ever recognize the stupidity of the internet in that regard.

the whole logic here is fucking retarded, originally you oppose people using the term because it's not according to how the dictionary lists its definition, but then when the dictionary changes it's still wrong? the only authority on language that you're prescribing to is your own, or what your English teacher taught you.

Never mind, you might get offended by the color of a brown candy because it's racist.
>>333054018
Stop thinking of him as a hero you're expected to like. He's an asshole. Enjoy the ride for what it is.
>>333044708
What's with all the GoW hate lately? are they making a new game or something? We all know that it's a shit series for casuls, that it's not as complex as the superior nippon games of that genre, that it's utterly edgy and made for 14 year olds. But is there really a point in kicking its dead corpse? The series is dead, that part is of a game from 2010. Who gives a shit? OH NO, HE KILLED A FICTIONAL GURRL! HOW DARE HE! meanwhile he has also been killing male innocents in the most brutal ways since the first game, but hey, if they are male it doesn't matter right?
>>333054379
This. The ONLY really redeeming thing about Kratos is that most of the gods are also assholes.
>>333050757

>Doesn't fuck men
>>333051802
Who is this /v/ person you're talking about? Sounds like an interesting individual.
>>333054018
Got the job done though.
>>333054459
I think they've teased a PS4 God of War
>>333053794
Most of the people commenting on it haven't played the games.
The woman dies pretty quickly. That's actually a mercy kill compared to the other shit they thought up through the series.
But, GoW was before gamergate took the internet by fucking storm so they could do this without tumblrites and SJWs mercilessly attacking them on twitter.
>>333054379
>>333054490
Even that is already thinking too much for what the game wants to be. Its just an outlet for action fans, and a very good one at that.
All these posts complaining about their hurt feelings are confusing me to no end.
Is it shitposting, or is this really how people think nowadays?
>>333054640
Well you could say that for most games. It's just that here it's pretty blatant that Kratos is not a nice person to say the least.
>>333053698
You're damn right it is.
Kek, I'm going to laugh at feminists when Islam becomes the biggest force of the West. Then I'm going to see what they mean about "Female Empowerment"
Kratos is such a shitty and garbage character, why is he one of the most liked Playstation guys?
>tfw I keep trying to use Square-Square-Triangle in every action game after GoW

>>333054856
I didn't even realize people liked Kratos.
I figured it was just Sony pushing yet another mascot character we don't care about.

The fact that the board collectively tried to be Anthony Burch, and even like that failed to be him just speak volumes about how bad God doesn't want anyone but Anthony Burch to be Anthony Burch.
It's a great feeling.
>>333055137
Joker is also an antagonist, besides, Kratos is more like Leto Joker if there are any comparisons without all the vocal annoyance Jared gives out.
>>333050714
>Is Macbeth an anti-hero?
Motherfucker, moral relativity has nothing to do with protagonist and antagonist. Protagonist is simply who the story follows and antagonist is simply who or what opposes them. An anti-hero is someone who is neither heroic or villainous but they tend to have heroic morals but traits that do not follow it. Spawn is an anti-hero because despite him being a brooding demon, he still tries to do good and protect people. Kratos is a villain, he does nothing for the good of others and is willing to kill for his own personal gain. Even by Greek god standards he's a cunt who is incapable of emotion other than blind rage. Zeus in myth is a bit of a dick but he still helps people and tries to improve humanity but the only thing Kratos has ever done is kill more shit because Sparta.

That's exactly how you should feel about him, tho.
I'm fairly sure nobody rooted for him; hell, even the third game shows you how bad the world's shitting the bed whenever he kills a god, to emphatize that you're condemning us all to eternal suffering just for a petty revenge.

>>333053794
I need that quote from the guy who worked on Enslaved: Odyssey to the West. Where he talks about sitting in on a writer's meeting and they talk about how badass the protag would be if he kicked someone clinging to the wing of a plane, and how he told them it would just make it seem like the protag was a massive cunt.
>>333044708
So this is the new cuck generation.
>kills male innocent begging for mercy in some gruesome way
hehe so funny, he fucked that guy up lmao kratos is soo cool!
>Kills a female innocent begging for mercy in some gruesome way
OVER THE LINE! WHAT'S THIS EDGY SHIT, IT'S DISGUSTING!
What's with virgins idolizing women anyway? it's pathetic.
>>333056435
>implying the whole point of Kratos' character isn't that he is the most massive cunt to ever walk the earth
How could you not enjoy that?
>>333056441
Boat hydra guy has been mentioned x1000000 times. Stop.
>>333056435
Wasn't that about Tameem writting?
>>333056569
Of course, Kratos is great. The point is Tameem sucks.
Say what you will about GoW gameplay, but the QTEs were incredibly satisfying. I don't know why but mashing a button to tear off Helios's head felt really good and fitting.
this scene in particular doesn't stand out, Kratos kills innocent people in every game he's in.
whether or not that makes for a likable character is up for debate, but it's definitely in his character and if it was shocking to you that he doesn't discriminate in his psychopathy, you're probably a closet sexist that's trying too hard.
>>333056441
different genders means different treatment
youre the cuck if you dont understand that
>>333056693
I'm talking about faggots like the OP
>>333056773
>The point is Tameem sucks
Ah, well, forgive my misunderstanding.
You are of course completely right.
>>333055545
Everything after that was a letdown.
>>333044708
I thought it was hilarious, fits gow's dark humor, and Kratos has treated male innocents worse than her.
>>333056441
>let's just use an innocent woman as a doorstop instead of one of the corpses of my monster adversaries along the way
>because I am the god of war and I'm edgy
Not even Khorne does that shit.
>>333056905
So only men deserve to die in horrible ways then? Your logic is fucking retarded and you're an underage cuck but sure, whatever you say.
>>333047478
>i don't like thing
>well you're not supposed to like it moron
What exactly is the argument here?
>>333048996
gow ascension still got a littlet bit tainted by sjws, one of the many reasons it was bad.
>>333044708
What shit wasn't cool?
>>333057289
They probably did it for gameplay variance
it makes no sense to guide this person all that way just to prop them up like that when he could just use a bunch of corpses, but gotta change up the gameplay a little bit
>>333057289
Khorne has some measure of honor and pride.
>>333044708
So what GoW is this from?
>>333056441
It's ingrained in our brains to view women as more valuable, and for a reason. I hate white knights too but you gotta recognize simple biology.
>>333057289
>cuck and edgy are now words used to discredit people that like things that you don't
>I only like characters who are goody-two-shoes
lmao u cuck
>>333057289
It's a design choice. They wanted to include some kind of escort section. All i'm saying is that if instead of a lady you would have to use some random guy as doorstop absolutely no one would give a shit and this thread wouldn't exist. But because is a girl it's unacceptable. You guys are SJW cucks.
>>333057676
by gow3 it became a tradition to sacrifice an innocent person in a horrible/comedic situation.
>>333057807
yeah but we're not animals, we can look past that
should we really have different ethical boundaries for the treatment of fictional women based on that?
>>333056905
>different genders means different treatment
thats the faggot in you talking.
>that guy in Ascension that Kratos lets a monster kill for no reason
>immediately kills said monster
Sometimes his dickitude was just ridiculous.
>>333058013
He does it previously in the game as well.
Chucks some guy off Olympus just because he was in his way, i felt just as aggrieved then as I was with her.To be honest i could actually care less about him using her as a doorstop, she was too whiny for me to even begin to like her
>>333053080
>Why isnt he kiling Aphro though?
testosterone. not even kratos was gonna kill that fantastic piece of ass. you think he's retarded?
>>333058013
Indeed, as people has pointed out in this thread, the old men he used to read the books in 2 were also escort missions, and he killed them too
>>333058047
In a way, yeah. Since you'd expect characters to have the some boundaries in their heads Kratos' assholery and detachment seems more apparent.
>yfw
>>333056441
>hehe so funny, he fucked that guy up lmao kratos is soo cool!
No one said that though at most people said gore for the sake of gore is stupid and unnecessary.
>tfw God of War IV will probably be a VR-only reboot.
>>333057289
Monster corpses dissapear when you kill them. Kratos told her to cooperate into helping him to open the door. She refused. Nigga got mad and forced her to help him... not in the same way he asked before.
It worked, in the end, tho.
>>333058276
Kratos doesn't give a fuck.
>>333053794
What's made it worse for the captain was that he still have to suffer directly from Kratos multiple times even after he died.
>>333058101
It's for laughs,like the captain Kratos keeps screwing over.
>>333049359
While I agree that it's pretty much the same thing, at least when Kratos killed people in that way in other situations, they were to activate mechanisms that specifically required a blood sacrifice. Poseidon's slave just got crushed to death for no particular reason, other than him needing a doorstop and being too lazy to drag something heavy over.
>>333050197
Posiden and Hercules got it worse
Why didn't he just pick up that brazier right there in the corner and block the wheel with that?

>>333059147
Kratos can't harm females and kneels before any woman and says sorry for being a shitlord. The kneeling and apologizing are QTEs that you must complete or Kratos dies of drowning in his own male tears

>>333059181
yes because a spartan using a fucking lamp is badass.
i think ripping off someoens head and using their eyes for light is the definition of badass.
Probably the only reason to play these shit games. The scale of it all, and the gore. Because it sure as fuck isn't for the combat, platforming, story, or characters.

There's no sex mini game in Ascension, but there is a cutscene with about 4 topless women all begging Kratos to have sex with them. He's about to as well, but then it's revealed to be an illusion.
No cheesy "camera pans away and you do a QTE for sex noises", but just as much nudity as the other games.
>>333044708
Yeah, I never liked how edgy some of GoW scenes are.
This and that part in the second psp game where there's some guy stuck and instead of helping him out Kratos jus crushes him for no reason. I know he's a bad guy and all but fuck, he just kills people for literally no reason
>>333059181

>>333059356
When did that soundtrack play? I can't quite remember.
Personally i found The End Begins to be the best soundtrack out of 2, I guess that's mainly thanks to them having it play during every boss fight, though.

I-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-it's edgy!The real reason is that it can get annoying seeing people be either super serious in their edginess, or smug in their edginess. Either way, though, it's true there's nothing inherently wrong with being edgy, but you could say that about a lot of things. There's nothing inherently wrong about liking the look of shit, for example, but that doesn't mean it's advisable.I'm actually okay with people doing edgy things

This is nothing in terms of Greek myth. There's a story where Rhea tells Zeus to stop being a rapey piece of shit or she won't let him marry.

The band of brothers theme is amazing.
And so is the theme that plays when you're fighting poseidon.

They aren;t bad depending on the game. Fuck Bayo has them but no one mentions it because it's a good game

This is the single best piece of orchestrated music ever made for a video game.

didn't you get the point? He released hope amoungst the people and that is how we survived the chaos without the help of the Gods

In terms of gory deaths she got it mild, throughout the games you do far worse to many other monsters/characters.
But her's seems worse because she's innocent, no one gives a shit when you snap the optic nerve of a cyclops and split its guys open, it's a fucking cyclops. And the gods and stuff we're all in opposition to Kratos and they're gruseum deaths usually came after a extended fight.
But this girl is either Poisoden's wife or just a random pleasure girl (I can't remember) who isn't involved in his feud at all.

>Poseidon theme
One of my favorite themes out of all of the GoW games, second only to Cronos' theme.
However, I'm disappointed that nobody's talking about Ascension's music since-the game shat the bed. The Hecatonchires theme was genuinely pretty good, if maybe the only good theme in the game apart from the last boss' theme.

>Making an asshole villain protagonist character half-assedly good in the end
I hate this shit, he should've been unsympathetic from beginning to end.

It unnerved me a lot too, but Kratos is supposed to be a merciless, murderous piece of shit. At least it seemed quick- death is one thing but suffering is another
>>333056435
I can't find it but yeah, they tried to make monkey a Kratos styled dick instead of a playful trickster/lovable asshole that Sun Wukong should be.

Tbh I can't remember any track in particular from that game.
Except this one

My favorite from ascension, it's a shame santa monica doesn't just work on a new series.
GoW is done for, but they can still work on something similiar, literally everyone is begging for a game centered around norse mythos
