God of War is shaping up to be one of the biggest games of 2018, but there have been some major changes in Kratos' life since Ascension. Game Bit looks at the biggest overhauls in the God of War series for the new PS4 game.
Kratos has been on a rampage, killing Gods in epic battles since 2005. With each release managing to offer high-octane action, I explore each God of War title and rank every adventure from his journey to Olympus to his Norse tales of fatherhood.
I won’t rank Ragnarok just yet, although it is honestly leaving me and my wife blown away…won’t go into details right now, not done as I assume others aren’t either, maybe some of you are, idk haha.
But here’s how I rank them
5. God of War 3
4. God of War Ascension.
3. God of War 1.
2. God of War 2.
1. God of War 2018.
Wow, that’s pretty interesting that someone has the same ranking as me haha. So, did you beat Ragnarok? I assume so with you placing it at #1
1. God of war 3
2. God of war 2018
3. God of war 2
4. God of war 1
Haven't played the others but about 30 hrs In to ragnarock now so safe to say if it keeps up it will end up being at the top of my list when I'm done.
I will say the pacing of the original titles and the epic feel to them I feel is way better than the new one’s. Like, I could recognize and appreciate the praise God of War received, but it bores me to tears except for the pivotal moments.
However, that being said I feel Ragnarok is waaaaay better than 2018. I’m only on Ch. 6, but it’s pretty much rocked my face off from the get-go.
I’m really split between this being my GotY or Elden Ring.
I think different games in the series had different strengths but all are great. I liked the original as it was an origin story and the mechanics were fresh. The sequel added smoother gameplay. Three was just so far ahead of it's time graphically it wasn't even funny. Plus great gameplay and bosses and insane gore and nice use of sexy time. The reboot was cool but lost a lot of what I liked about the original trilogy (I don't need my games grown up, just fun). Will wait and see with ragnarok as haven't had time to play it yet.
This article looks into who Kratos is in the God of War series compared to who he was in Greek mythology. In the game series, the article looks into Kratos as the son of Zeus. In mythology, the article looks into Kratos as the son of Pallas and Styx, a sibling, and a servant of Zeus.
Cratos in mythology is so much the polar opposite of Kratos in the GoW series
Almost like how Hades is portrayed as a vile villain in most adaptations of the mythological character that seems more akin to an analogue of Satan than his original self.
I gotta be honest, up until this point, I was never sure whether Kratos was really from greek myth, or just a new character injected into it.
Historians will call Kratos a liar... But history was written by men who have hanged heroes. 😁
Games critics have criticized Far Cry 5 for being a "power fantasy" and God of War for its "toxic masculinity," but these are two things that make action games so great, writes Gazette gaming columnist Jake Magee.

There is no such thing as "toxic masculinity". The only people who think it exists are femtards who think anything they don't like constitutes The Patriarchy, and white-knights who love degrading their own gender since its the only hope they have of getting laid.
Nice buzzwords.
Gonna trigger lots of people to get clicks.
