same thing I thought. I'd rather had the character have been a black woman or w/e.

i'm not surprised though...they dont wanna piss off those white male gamers too much...look at how the marketing for battlefield 1 changed when they started complaining....hell, look at how they've done my boy kratos: gave him a pale ass son and got him battling nordic mythology, even though it's been established he's a black man, smh.....

...but i digress....her being white is a minor complaint, and i'll get over it....i want this to be successful....there seems to be a lot of potential in this game's world.....

I don't understand why people say Kratos is black. This is the 3rd or 4th time I've seen people in the arcadium state that Kratos is black.

In the scene where he's cursed by the old lady he DOES look black but in honesty he's just a dark skinned greek... He does look black at first glance. :jbhmm:

see above response....

edit: to add to it....it's not a coincidence after people starting asking if he was black, and then having jaffe saying how he originally wanted him to be black, that they started making him more 'white'....the flashbacks in games as a kid that werent canon but became canon, he was pale as hell....his daughter, pale as hell....and they started showing him less out of ash, even in flashbacks...
