maybe a new character would have avoided some of the drama?

@Z218 most likely, I mean the game is going to a near complete genre shift, so it was obvious it would get a lot of backlash. And while I'm warming up to it (like I did with DmC as well) I feel like this thing could stand on it's own two legs without the God of War name or even if it was about Kratos's Brother (that would've been interesting actually).
To me it's pretty much lost like 70% of what the series was about in terms of looks. Also the bigger emphasis on RPG elements and the removal of the jump button (yes I know that's nitpicking). Still, I might actually give it a go once it's down to like 20 bucks or so.
