**** of War Fans Wanted 1 OG Feature to Return, but It Would Have Ruined the Atmosphere

**** of War has been around for years and the franchise evolved into something more ambitious throughout time. The original trilogy was released at a time when cosmetic items like skins and outfits were not that popular compared to today’s standards and it is a good thing.

Modern video games heavily rely on creative and shiny skins to attract the gaming community as a crutch. Fortunately, Santa Monica Studio did not need to use that to gain any attention. While Kratos did have unlockable outfits, none of them would be used in the Norse Saga.

Santa Monica Studio has worked on the franchise for the last two decades and was influenced by the trends and demands of its time. Iconic items from earlier in the series like weapons often wound up being used in moments of crisis, like the Blades of Chaos haunting Kratos of his past, and ended up being a useful asset.

Some fans are happy to see the Leviathan Axe be put to rest in **** of War after the Norse Saga wrapped up and move on to new items.

The older version of the character had a plethora of unlockable outfits that could be accessed in a menu and other than making the Ghost of Sparta look goofy and less threatening, they had no other uses or benefits unlike the new cosmetic options today where each piece has a specific set of perks.

Players thought it would be funny if modern Kratos still had access to his old wardrobe.

Most of these were random outfits that had no connection with the lore. Fortunately, none of them are canon, which is the fun bit. For players, slaying enemies dressed as a fisherman or a chef could break the immersion and make the experience more unique.

Santa Monica Studio Went Overboard With These Unique **** of War Costume Designs

Designing outfits and cosmetics can unleash an artist’s inner creativity. However, it can also deviate too far to a point it is no longer recognizable. Santa Monica Studio made a wise choice to let this idea go to rest and work on more appealing options.

Times are changing and not everything that worked in the past will work today. The gaming community would not stop trolling the developers from reusing an outdated idea.

The new armor sets are a much more viable option for a wardrobe change and each of these pieces feature unique benefits and perks, not just aesthetics. Kratos can now take advantage of these perks while looking good.

Santa Monica Studio had fun years ago and decided to up its game with character design and delivered big time. Perhaps future entries will have unique and relevant cosmetic options.
