I wiki'd as well and found Tyr listed as the god of war. But honestly, the whole Aesir mythology (hell, any mythology) probably changed hundreds of times while it was still being practiced, so there may have been gods whose roles and duties have switched, combined and even ceased to exist.Happyninja42 said:The search I did shows Tyr as the god of Law/Justice, not War. Granted, I just wiki'd it, so take that accuracy with a grain of salt. xDJute88 said:I was about to come in correct you that Tyr is actually the god of war, but after a quick search he seems to share that title with Odin as well. Strange, I always read of him as the god of death. Oh well, being the founding father of Norse gods would be interesting, though it wouldn't fit Odin's backstory.Happyninja42 said:I'm thinking they're going the route of "Kratos will create the Norse pantheon" storyline, given some of the stuff in that gameplay trailer. Odin is the Norse God of War, Thor is his red headed son, who has an affinity for lightning (which the kid demonstrated with his bow), and Odin is a grizzled old dude with a beard, constantly worried about "what is to come next" ie. Ragnarok.Ezekiel said:They really should have given it a new protagonist. It's the stupidest thing ever, Kratos taking on the Norse gods after he's killed all the Greek ones. I'm so sick of stories going way beyond where they should have ended.
What you said sounds interesting. The problem is that I've never played God of War series and I'm not going to start now. I'm just interested in greek and norse mythology =)
