God of War's Kratos Originally a "Little Elf"

The monk with a baby could have created an interesting story element

I wonder if a little Disney elf would have had two candycanes grafted to his arms instead of swords.

Does "elf" have to mean happy little Disney elf?

I mean come on, there is a lot of very interesting folklore about elves.

Damn, what is up with all the elf hate lately?(by that I mean every time the word "elf" is used on the forums someone is bashing them, I'm not overreacting to your joke here.) When did the direct decedents of the valor become jokes?

Maybe Kratos read some good elf-help books?

"I think it took us a year-and-a-half to come up with Kratos"

Seriously, a year and a half for bald facepainted guy with oversized muscles in a loincloth?
Seriously?

Well hey, maybe the original concept for Link was just a little more edgy and badass.

I have to admit, that sounds hilarious. Maybe they'll do that with DLC as a joke or something.
