Seeing Japanese mythology through the God of War lens would be amazing and completely different from anything else. Though I know a lot of people are gonna want Egypt first and I’m not really all that interested in Egypt. It’s like Assassin’s Creed not wanting to go to Japan. The setting is perfect and could be seen… Read more
It’s also worth noting that Atreus indicates that he prefers Kratos’ name for him (and really appreciates being told the story of the Atreus for whom he is named) over the name chosen by Faye.
The entire narrative of this God of War centers around Kratos attempting to assert some level of control over his baser… Read more
In Tyr’s treasure room (or maybe on a tapestry on the elevator ride down to it) there’s also a clear reference to Mayan culture as well. There’s no shortage of places they can go. However, I think that we can expect one or two more games focused on the Norse atmosphere before they jump somewhere else. Read more
Not necessarily.

I’m having a good time constructing these (I’m also working on the house after finishing the RC car) but I will concede I’d get bored quickly with the end result without kids. The youngsters are totally blown away by how the camera tricks and use of different vibrational frequencies work. Lots of Labo haters out… Read more
