God Of War Ascension Script |verified|
Unlike God of War III , which ends with Kratos offering hope to humanity, Ascension ends in a narrative cul-de-sac. The script is a prequel that cannot change the future, so it lacks stakes. We know Kratos will survive. We know he will become the Ghost of Sparta. We know he will eventually die and crawl out of Hades. The script fights this by focusing on emotional pain, but it is a losing battle.
