Didn't realize the Norse GoW games were so hated until now I guess lol. I thought it looked pretty good too though!

There's a large part of the og gow fans who really dislike the new games and the new fanbase even, and a lot of the new fans insult the old games when they didn't even play them

It's very odd

I'm an og fan from ps2 era. I played through the first new God of war on the hardest difficulty. Played the hell out of it It was a good game, but not really what I wanted from God of war. It kinda feels like a marvel movie and I hate that style of writing. The new fan base turns me off as well. The whole forced kratos is a wholesome dad chungus BOY BOY BOY BOY BOY shit is annoying. I wasn't interested when the second one came out and haven't played it.

Ok I totally get that, and yeah the new fanbase is...odd and can be really toxic
