Nerdreactor.com writes about "The Maestros of Video Game Music" composer panel that happened at Dark Delicacies. The following composers attended the event: Garry Schyman (Bioshock 1, 2, Dante’s Inferno), Richard Jacques (Mass Effect, James Bond 007: Blood Stone), Penka Kouneva (Prince of Persia: The Forgotten Sands), Jesper Kyd (Assassin’s Creed series), Mike Reagan (God of War series), Greg Edmonson (Uncharted series), Sean Murray (CoD: Black Ops), and finally Inon Zur (Fallout 3, Dragon Age, The Lord of the Rings: War in the North).
Whatever form the next God of War game takes, it needs to be clear about what role Kratos is playing, lest the franchise lose direction.
I'm pretty sure it'd be a major mistake having Atreus as the main character in the next GoW. Seems to me like at best people tolerate him and his gameplay sections.
Ideally the story for the next game would be that Atreus has gone missing in Egypt, Kratos gets mad about it, picks up Mimir and goes on a god killing rampage.
They need to bring back the "God of War" in God of War. I was expecting to unleash hell and fury in Asgard against Thor that they really talked up in the first game but all we got was brooding middle aged dad drunk in a beer hall. Ragnarok was still "good" but I left that game expecting a lot more.
Tried Rag... just couldn't get into it. Felt like more of the same. I would welcome a Kratos only game again.
