Ha! Yea. Intimacy issues. I hang out at the same coffee shop day in day out but I still only know a few names of people who work there that I see every day. It's embarrassing. I'm trying though.
Yea, I never really saw Kratos as that deep a character. It's the typical revenge story with a lot of brutal violence. But it's just the nature of his world. Things have to been brutally put down if you want to get anything done and the gods are total bastards. In Ascention there's lots of Medusa's getting split to the breast and Elephantaur's having their brains exposed. The Empusa get bent backward as Kratos impales them on their own insect-like legs. Eew! And kinda sexy. Sometimes an innocent gets in the way or has to be sacrificed to serve Kratos' purposes. Usually it's unavoidable, so there's no moral choice to be made. You just have to do it to progress. Kratos appeals to our primal memories of living in traditional societies where men are warriors from day one, might is right, and vengeance is the best form of justice. That's all.
Just don't let it become this from Bridesmaids lol. (F'n great movie btw)
It's just practice. I got to get more social to learn me some skills. I just tend to isolate myself too much. I fit the writer stereotype a little too well.
Ha ha! Kratos will do anything to get the job done. No mercy.
I should have a thicker skin than that, but being a bit of a loner, I'm not used to social battling and tend to shut myself away when verbally bruised.
I love the way you can attach yourself to the monsters in Dragon's Dogma. I watched my friend play it after me and I couldn't stop laughing as he hung from his sword stuck in a Cyclops' butt.
Can you still get the original American McGee's Alice as a download with Alice Madnes Returns? I always wanted to play both games.
A friend of mine is going to lend me his copy of one of the Fables trade paperbacks from which Wolf Among Us is based. The concept intrigues me. We'll see if I like it.
GOD writer Marianne KrawCzyk won a BAFTA for the characterization of Kratos in GOW II. The fighting is great in all of them it's just that there's less of it as the series progresses. I have to play more of GOW III to see if it's as good as I and II. Ascension though is definitely GOW light.
I read the Spartan Ops stuff on Wiki, but I'm going to finish the game soon and see it for myself. This stuff about the Composer confuses me.
