God of War Laufey, why so much hate towards the game?

Postby gwolf666 » 05 Jun 2026, 00:39

Maybe it's because I haven't played all the God of War games yet, but I have a general idea of ​​what the games with Kratos are about. But why so much hate for this game? It's a spin-off; it's normal that Kratos doesn't appear in a spin-off. Can someone explain this to me?

I have been seeing the comments about the game, and i honestly don't understand why most people hate it. Some are angry they release a full game about him, instead of the son.

It wouldn't have been bad to include his son, but I mean, it's a spin-off, so it makes sense that the main protagonist isn't in it. Besides, this game expands the saga and isn't just about Kratos. But hey, it's not like I've played all the God of War games or am I a super fan, so I can't really understand the anger. At first glance, this is what I think.

The only ones who are negative are sexist guys who don't want to play a woman and guys who are frustrated that the protagonist is not hot. Although her likeness is actually based from a beautiful actress, but they decided not to make her pretty or youthful because she's a housewife, not a supermodel.

I asked in several places and they gave me very similar answers, except for the housewife thing, haha. They all said the same thing: they're complaining because the protagonist is a woman and because she's not sexy like Stellar Blade or Tomb Raider, for example. But it's normal that she looks old if Kratos is already old. Although they could have made her a little prettier, they decided not to. Oh well, it's part of the game's lore. That doesn't take away from the fact that the game can't be incredibly good, right?

To be fair, how she was designed actually fits the game setup. Unfortunately i don't know when i will be able to finally play it.

Her voice actress and model is a beautiful woman, so I can understand why some people are frustrated why is she not hot, because she is based from a beautiful woman, but the thing is, she's not playing a young girl, she's playing a middle-aged woman, a mother, a wife. And yes, even Kratos is not young.

Some are also worried that they are trying to replace Kratos and won't see him in future projects, but the developers has made it clear that Kratos will still be available in future projects.

The Kratos are complaints kinda disappeared. The only complaints we have now is the appearance of the protagonist. I see a lot of people on Twitter demanding to make the character more beautiful because she speaks from a beautiful woman.

I understand their view though, but i still feel the design perfectly fit the gaming style and the whole game in general.

I think the reason for the design is she is a middle-aged woman and a mother, and a former retired warrior who becomes a housewife before she died. And she is in the afterlife fighting for her life, basically. And many people complained because, you know, why is she not hot? Because her voice actress and her model is a beautiful young woman.

The funny thing is even when they make her hot, there are those who would still complain simply because they don't want to play a female character in the god of war series.
