If Witcher is any indication, they won't even try to stick to the games at all.

Well, everyone know Kratos' origin is from Swedish lore. Duh... His kid is Loki after all. And his father is Odin.

That's all you need to know. No need to call the writers. I'm here. I watched a let's play of all the God of War games. While having dinner. While scrolling my tik tok feeds. And taking my dog out to walk during the cut scenes.

Yeah yeah, I got it, he's the specter of Thebes or whatever, god of... punching? Close enough.

Look, I'm just going to use my screenplay from when I was in college and just swap the names from this IP. I don't think anyone will notice.

Bro, it's obviously the God of Flaws, he obviously took the title from Mars. And his son is Sun Wukong the trickster god.
