Because it's a story driven franchise, he's already been in 6 games and it wouldn't hurt to have a new protagonist. Nathan Drake and Ellie aren't gonna be in 15 Uncharted or TLOU games and Kratos has a shelf life too.
Q:Did Kratos leave all his old weapons in Greece
A:You will find out.
Q:Is Kratos still l a god and immortal?
A:Yes

I wonder if this is the beggining of the pre-release news/hype marketing and we'll get more details from other outlets soon or if this is really just some exclusive coverage. Its kinda wierd how they are still dancing around the release date and how little we have seen from the game since the reveal in 2016, when the game was in a early stage. I reckon most complains(and "concerns") would die down if they showed a little bit more of the game.
"25% of the game is on the boat"
......... Well, I can't tell if this is sarcasm or not.
Think it's sarcasm, but only 80% sure on that.

Oh ok. Gotcha. I'm still not convinced because although it's a break from the orbs, it's not new or different, so it doesn't feel like a meaningful change. They've swapped an old mechanic for another old mechanic. Just comes down to which you prefer I guess.

That was pretty cool, Cory seems like an awesome person. Some new info in there as well such as unlockable costumes.
Him asking if there's a double jump specifically makes me think there is some type of jumping, just won't be jumping around like a madman.
Gotta be sarcasm. If the game is around 30hrs long there's no way you will be spending 7.5hrs on a boat. Hell, most of the old games could probably be finished in 7,5hrs lol.
My god you explore alot in this game I sure alot by boat some of you take everything the wrong way all the time.
game wont be 30 hours. 16-17 will be probably.
no way they design a linear action game that keeps going for 30 hours.
Dunno about the percentage but even the article says you use boats a lot to travel around the world and not just 1 boat either.
True. But this is a soft reboot for him. His powers are clearly stripped and he's in a a completely different setting.
Who knows if the boy is his successor that we'll get to know during this game.
That comment about the axe cutting a tree...I mean I can only think of one specific tree in Norse mythology. lol
Wow. No Quick time events !
No jumping, No QTE's, no Combo meter.
Crazy.
Yeah, I really wanted them to do that instead of north mythology.
Thanks to this picture.
Yeah I noticed.. so... It's either confirmed or denayed?
Ahh some voice actor from past games are reprising their roles in this game
Yeah but lots of puzzles too lots of NPCs as well
I have a hard time believing this too.
Keeping the game at high quelity level for 25 hours with this art seems like a huge task.
Hope they can do it.
So what. game wont be 25-35 hours period. All devs says their game takes 50 hours or more but it never is. They must have different calculation methods than us.
Looks more like black flag. If kratos was blonde u wouldn't be able to see the difference lol
All that water my god I'm thirsty
you take that just from watching this thing or knowing stuff too?
I've watched this question a bunch of times and I cant decide how I feel on the tone lol
Go4's combat is clearly slower than the previous games, and unless there is some swishy ass fast weapon we haven't seen yet, it's probably still going to remain at roughly the same speed. Anyone that plays action games can tell roughly how fast the combat is just by what we've seen here. No need to wait for the game is out for that. That's just nonsensical.
That said, there still might be unseen depth to the combat. 3 was on the surface basically the same game as the others, but people found more depth by digging. Same with DmC, DMC4 and so on. Time will tell. Game's not going to change direction, and it's unlikely that future games will either, so we might as well see how that turns out.

The game is playable from beginning to end. It took playtesters over 30 hours to finish the game, recording their playtime was the "calculation method'. While the game isnt exactly open world its also not linear anymore. It has hidden levels, bosses and side-quests. Its definitely possible it takes a while to finish.
The boat comment is probably a joke. Unless there are Berserk fans there. Then we might be in trouble.
The lack of jump is kind of a bummer. I've come to realize I like being able to jump in games. Hope it all ends up playing well. Haven't played any of the old games since Ascension came out so it's been long enough I don't really remember.
I wonder if there will be anything like the temple from the first game. That was always such a cool thing for me to go through this giant thing and then have it change at one point. Not sure exactly how to explain it.

Sounds good. Surprised we haven't had a release date yet, which makes me think a March release won't be happening.
So do I
So do I
I never got the calls to replace Kratos.
People did the same with Master Chief and then 343 actually listened in Halo 5. That went great...

I'm pretty hyped for this. I'm a big GoW fan since day 1 but the franchise needed a fresh start and I trust them to deliver.
They could've gone all the way though and create a new protagonist to go along with the new setting, but they probably figured that was too much. With how much they're changing the gameplay, there would be nothing left from God of War at this point.
As for humanizing Kratos, I'm assuming this will only be noticeable during the interactions with his son, which isn't out of character at all, not only is avenging his family the premise of the whole saga, but it has already been done in Chains of Olympus, I think people need to refresh their memories in regards to what happens in that game.
Not only does Kratos show genuine affection for his daughter, but the antagonist toys with those feeling in a truly cruel way, that game justifies better than any other what drives Kratos throughout the saga.
I'm looking forward to seeing how his relation with his son evolves, after what happened with his previous family I'm not surprised that he's a more distant father. Becoming too close to his son will only open him up to another blow. It's the same situation Joel finds himself in at the start of TLOU.
