They should make a game starring this 'Dark Kratos' character
I didn't like and hated the Dante redesign but I loved the game.I already told you that subjectively i liked the game as a character action game, I didnt like it as a Devil may Cry game.
Alot of reviewers agreed with me.
Hell most of Steam agrees with me:
Your opinion is that it was a bad game??
Well thats your opinion so thats that, I cant tell you that you are wrong, just like you cant tell me, most of the people who played the game on Steam or reviewers that we are wrong.
We can however agree to disagree.
He's old(er). Of course he's changedYou are not completely wrong, he's more emotional in 10 minutes in that game than in the entire original trilogy.
People don't notice it as much because he is still stern and gruff, but he's different.
I can't see Atreus carry a spinoff on its back but SMS are good writers and they did said through Kratos that this is Atreus' story. If Ragnarok doesn't concludes everything then I can see him being a playable character in GoW3.Ah jesus christ, don't even put that into the world. Mohawk-wearing Atreus is the opposite of badass.
Kratos is 100% of those games, Atreus is 0%. He's just a backdrop for the story. Hopefully, Kratos releases that Loki is bad and kills him at the end of Ragnarok so we don't have to see more Atreus moving forward.

Taking into consideration sales and user reviews from all games in the series and in all platforms, Emo Dante redesign was a bad idea that did hurt the game, and once they fixed it going back to the traditional design players loved the series again. See below.
Instead of looking only to Steam watch all the platforms and game in the series to get the full context:
DMC5 (PS+XB+PC) 5.7M copies sold
DmC (PS+XB+PC) 2.8M copies sold
DMC4 (PS+XB+PC) 3M + DMC4SE (PS+XB+PC) 2M = 5M copies sold
DMC3 (PS2) 1.3M + DMC3SE (PS2) 1M = 2.3M copies sold
DMC2 (PS2) 1.7M copies sold
DMC (PS2) 2.1M copies sold
Even if in released in 3 platforms, DmC sold barely more than the DMC games released on a single console. The other multiplatform DMC games with normal Dante sold around the double of copies. The worst selling game is DMC2.
Metacritic user reviews:
DMC 5 8.4/7.6/8.6
DmC 5.6/5.4/7.0
DMC4 8.6/8.4/8.4
DMC3 9.1
DMC2 6.4
DMC 8.6
DmC and DMC2 are the ones with the worse user reviews in MC. DmC got better user reviewed in PC than in console. To go back to a traditional Dante/more traditional art style and 60fps did help to improve and go back to the usual (non DMC2) numbers.
Maybe, but he is Loki, and Loki is fated to die during Ragnarok at the hands of Heimdall.I can't see Atreus carry a spinoff on its back but SMS are good writers and they did said through Kratos that this is Atreus' story. If Ragnarok doesn't concludes everything then I can see him being a playable character in GoW3.
I just don't see the studio leaving this developed character Atreus after this game. Maybe he dies at the end and Kratos changes again.
Thanks to my crazy Paint 3d skills;
What do you think about it?
Don't you want some new ideas about how Kratos looks and behaves?
edit: Finally added that new super cool Kratos model.
