Which is hardly defending its combat.

It implies you don't have an issue with the combat. Which is a more important factor than Kratos.


Obviously lead characters are important, but we are talking about a borderline retarded nu-metal re-imagining of greek mythology where you gouge eyes as a QTE and hammer the circle button to have a quick orgy. The fact that Kratos is a paper thin, nonsensical psychopath actually fits fairly well. If you're expecting multi-layered characters and complex narratives from fucking [b]God Of War[/b], you're playing it wrong, sir. 


And to be clear I despise the games, none of this is a defense, I'm just saying the dumbass main character is consistent with the dumbass world the game is set in.
