Got in a short session today. Kratos bumps into Perseus, who I remember learning about in high school. I can't remember if he ever met the Fates, but he did run into the three sisters who had to share one eye, which got combined with the Fates in Disney's Hercules. Anyway, in God of War he's a huge dick who picks a fight with Kratos for no real reason. At first he's invisible and fighting you in a pool of water, so you have to track him down by watching the splashes he makes as he walks around. I like that idea to some extent, but it makes it hard to tell when he's about to attack which is important for this combat system. Kratos finishes him off and takes his shield to use for a puzzle. He meets Icarus a little bit further on. I imagine most people know the story of Icarus - it's about Hubris. Icarus thinks he can fly up to the sun and ends up falling to his death. Anyway, in God of War Icarus is a huge dick who picks a fight with Kratos for no real reason. It's kind of like an extended quick time even where you just mash square to punch him and then do a couple QTEs to dodge his attacks. Kratos finishes him off and takes his wings, which give him a glide upgrade, but in the process of fighting him he falls down to the bottom of the world where Atlas is holding everything up. That's where I stopped for now. I also picked up a second spear sub-weapon. It seems better than the hammer but I don't think I'll use it much.
