Current Events > God of War creator: Kratos is bisexual

(+) Yeah! (+)

Oh, and one more thing: not to get all JK Rowling but when I was working on the origins of Kratos for the first games I knew he was a raging bi-sexual until he settled down with his wife. So Kratos is officially bi. Oh and the Oracle from GOW1? Lesbian, straight up! Boom!

While swinging both ways was more common in Greece, Kratos only ever banged fair maidens in the games.

How come u no bang dudes in the games, then
---

Well, it kinda makes sense.

That said there was never a hint of that in the games, so eh.
---

I think that Kratos being bisexual can be interesting, but I think it's weird when creators add stuff in Twitter posts or interviews that will never see the light of day in their works.

but since God of War for the PS4 was the start of a new series, I'm hoping that it's somehow implemented in the story.

like, *GoW PS4 spoilers* in that one story Kratos told Atreus about how he picked his name, it could be expanded upon to reveal that Kratos also had some kinda romantic history with the dude, for example.

Son, I named you after a great man.

A great man that I wanted to FUCK.
---

aww yea
---

The fact that he's Greek is the saving grace from enraging nerds. But also, he's referring to the original God of War's origin. Barlog might have retconned it now.

I really hope they don't shoehorn a Twitter bit of knowledge into the sequel. For fuck's sake lol.

This is gonna trigger people

Pretty sure that's why Jaffe did it

I don't think Kratos loved any men. He just fucked them because he was the boss.
---

even god of war falls victim to SJW
pretty disappointed

Fits with the whole Greek thing.

Now if he said kratos was a puppy bottom then youd have some controversy
---

My thing is what is the purpose if it isn't in the work?

Real men in ancient Greece fucked each other. Not like these soft sissies today that can't even take a lubed up finger in the ass.

FWIW, Barlog mentioned on twitter that the blue dwarf dude is LGBT.

You know what. My computer chair is LGBT.

"not to get all JK Rowling"

This is exactly like Rowling-- so I'll just quote the best response to her:

'J.K. Rowling confirms some characters in her books and movies are gay everywhere except for in the books or movies.'

Anyone who calls this some SJW nonsense clearly doesn't know anything about Spartans.

I usually don't care about this stuff but revealing a character's sexuality on Twitter is extremely lame. It's literal pandering without actually adding something significant to a character's story in the actual fucking game.

Good thing I never cared to play any of those boring ass games to give a fuck.

I mean, did you play any of the games? There isn't a single instance to suggest he's bisexual. This is the literal definition of pandering SJW nonsense.

And if it had been in the game, it would have been shoved in your face to pander to SJWs.

Second verse, same as the first, little bit louder, but a little bit worse.

When did I say that? I was referring to people whining about the idea that Kratos is bi. It's well established that units in ancient Greece would have sex with each other to promote bonding and troop morale.

By being a Spartan, it was obvious to me that he'd be bi.

Why did the sex minigames only have chicks tho. He should been cranking dongs left and right.

On one hand, when the game came out, the sex scenes were taboo enough. Making Kratos fuck a guy would have pretty much killed the game. And considering he's a Spartan... Yeah, he likely had his dick in an ass at some point.

On the other, fuck this JK Rowling shit. It's a desperate attempt at brownie points.

What's more manly then taking another man's thick piece and RISING to the challenge and conquering it?

Can you imagine putting a gay scene into a game back when GoW 1-3 released?

I'm pretty sure every studio back then thought it would be career suicide unless it was for laughs like in GTA Vice City.

let's be honest those same people bitching about it not being shown in-game would be throwing hissy fits if it actually was
