Why did they completely change his face? He used to look badass

Because after Ascension's flop they realized GoW's formula was getting stale so they tried a different direction.

Personally I think they were brave enough for the change of setting and change of formula in general but not brave enough to just finally scrap Kratos and make a brand new MC.

GOOOOOOOOOOOOOODS

It used to be that the bald/beard combo was actually a very masculine look. For example, take a look at Walter White, he was a proud and an asshole, but undeniably he had some sort of masculinity and the bald/goatee combo enhanced it.

Unfortunately, the look got co-opted by beta numales with male pattern baldness, so now it just screams "beta male" in this day and age.

Old Kratos looks like a nigger, new Kratos actually looks Caucasian

>tfw can't get a beard like that
It hurts bros
I just want to get a huge beard to wear with my robes and pointy hat

there is usually a class of Soystrogen boys that like to grow beards just to appear wizened and wordly. You know the ones.

Remember when a beard was manly?

>Literally the beard you get when you google "hipster beard"

>tfw even "my wife's son" posting was better than current shitty memes

Every game kratos looks slightly different

those soystrogen boys have that patchy beard 19 year olds have

angry amerimutt on left
muslim european on right

Kratos was a nigger you dumbass. Now he just looks like a soyboy.

that's like saying a game is shit because the fanbase is autistic.

>let my beard grow
>get labelled a hipster by soyboys who can't grow a beard

I'm assuming that's what the kid is though. Kratos is gonna die and then you olay as Atreus

I miss Ascension.

>He used to look badass.
Because he looks like a white man now, especially the ones from the mediterranean region.

Old Kratos looked like a mulatto or a white-admixed black man.

Beards are for faggots.

>Implying we won't follow Atreus' quest for revenge against the gods for killing his father on chapter 1

Right looks infinitely better. That being said it says nothing of the potential quality of the actual hand which looks questionable at best.

Maintained stubble > clean shaven > beard

>sonic
>kingdom hearts

checks out

he's getting old

this is like sjws saying pepe is a hate symbol because its popular with the alt-right

are you going to let people you dont like define the things in life? of course youre not you fucking cuck

>.t cawadooty fan

The face isn't the change that worries me the most.

They have to bring in people with the familiarity of Kratos to bring in backers.

lmfao what

a bit insecure are we

That's only because the nazis disapproved of beards.

The director already said that Kratos isn't going to die.

he's old and tired man

Is this canon?

Growing a beard but no body hair?

lmao

They couldn't even get the tattoo right you oblivious faggot

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

>growing my beard
>decide to let mustache go wild because everybody else trims theirs down
>see this

Well fuck.

>Remember when a beard was manly?

Fuck beards, I want moustaches to be mainstream again. Not just for hipsters.

WHERE IS MY WIFE'S SOY MILK!?!

people with a lack of estrogen cant grow beards. but hey were all pretending to be retarded right.

i don't follow the GoW series so answer me this Cred Forums:
is it confirmed that this is the same Kratos?
was GoW3 the last one in the timeline?

numales love beards

Moustaches are the ugliest fucking things

>its the story of revenge for imprisoning kratos eternally in swedish hell

That sucks... Now I just know the game has no stakes. Kratos is gonna rise above whatever stands in his way. Whatever his goal is now. Dope

>Badass.
Nigga looked like a fucking juggalo, lmfao

Because in a game made by faggots for faggots

He has a beard just like me!

Right is what spartans actually looked like.

I want to fuck that Canadian.

>entirely different skull shape
>head is longer
>cheekbones have been rounded off
>eyes are larger and less deep-set
>brow is far softer and less pronounced
>traps are like an entire inch smaller
>cuck beard
They literally turned him into a soyboy

>muh mocap
>muh realism
Western devs got pozzed and cannot into stylization and exaggeration anymore. Except Blizzard and Gearbox but their characters are ugly and suck shit so it doesn't even matter.

Stubble is infinitely manlier than beards and bitches drip over as nice full stubble
just cut that shit 1,5mm and keep it that length

Look at that jaw bro! How cool is that? Also, i think his head would hurt from pressing his eyes so much holy shit

>Moustaches are the ugliest fucking things

you are but a child

love him more

Came here to say this. Kratos used to have negroid facial features which sort of for with his origin being somewhat mysterious, now he looks like a Nord.

He used to look like a comic book character.

Now he looks like a graphic novel character.

Because that's for adults, mkay.

>mulatto
>with a nose like that
He looked more like an arab or egyptian to me

Same kratos, just fucked off to the nordic region after killing the whole greek pantheon and destroying the whole region in the process. Apparently there are many different gods in GoW that just govern different regions or something. Pretty dumb imho.

Are you kidding me? he looked fucking retarded.

>kratos was a nigger
what the fuck are you on about nigger

I have tits you should listen to me if you ever hope to get any

>''RRRRRRRRRRRRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRR GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOODSSS''

The series is obviously going in a new direction in a great many areas and the look of their protagonist is just one of them.

You had like seven games of the same old one dimensional edgelord. Granted it was very cool and perfect for the type of game he was featured in, but I think it's time to consider that series tired and dead. The new meme is the downtrodden old warrior finding new life in escorting and teaching an unwanted kid (Joel, Sandor Clegane, Logan, etc). Honestly surprised the kid's not a girl.

kys weeb

post them or gtfo

>big interest in Norse mythology
>will probably root against Kratos unless they make the aesir completely unlikeable

Oh all tits will gtfo from your life ;)

I read that GoW's 3 events caused Ragnarok to happen in the nordic region and thats the timeline we play in.

Fuck off weeb

We know it's you, Frank.

>Honestly surprised the kid's not a girl.
Or a black girl with an afro.

>"We want the soyboy audience"

then let him fuck you in the ass, fag

spartans were hipsters for having a beard tho

Every fucking reply is about soy

The old design would clash with the new setting pretty damn hard, changing it up a bit was a good call in my opinion. I’m far more worried about everything else.

>hating beardfags is Cred Forums now

That was a reaction to dumb hipsters in early 2010s going around telling everybody how manly they are because they have an ugly unkempt beard. Naturally some pointed out that many of these faggots don't have anything else manly about them. Cred Forums just copied this.

It's like the American equivalent of how Japs think muscles are gay

>creaturas is the new standard of beauty

this times are bad

Kratos was always an unlikable retard, especially after GoW .

You could kinda relate with him in 1, but after that he starts chimping out and Zeus put him down for good reasons.

Zeus did NOTHING WRONG

But even considering that i don't like where they are going with Dad of Soy

I just wish they used a new protagonist with a different though. Kratos's saga should've ended with 3.

Ah, but beards are like fine clothes. If you are fucking ugly and put on fine clothes, you are going to be fucking ugly in fine clothes. If you are fucking ugly and grow a beard, you are going to be fucking ugly with a beard.

Such is life.

>Cred Forums gets mad they're so low test they cannot grow a beard and whoever grows a beard is a "soyboy"

Lol

You can see the weak jawline hiding under that beard.

Bottom left is handsome as fuck

literally can't have an ugly character ever
he looked like a fucking demon before, now he just looks like someone's dad

Emphasis on *a* beard, because the soys don't even have full beards. They always have that patchy shit late teens have

You have to go back.

but the point was that that looks better than basic ass white manbun beard lumberjack

>mediterranean
>white
Pick one.

yawn

>tfw you can't grow facial hair because you're mexican.

who cares, he's a nigger and he should burn.

do mexicans even have internet

I don't buy the dad of war direction either, it's just more enjoyable watching him rage out the ass

Lay off the soy user it's all gone to your brain.

beards always looked fucking stupid on everyone, the only people that looked cool with them don't exist, like wizards, dwarves, Master Roshi, etc.

You can make a beard look however you want in fiction but IRL they always look like someone glued a big bag of pubes to a guys face.

Sorry, I'm latino-anglo mix in the USA. Either way, beaner genes stop me from growing facial hair.

queue 56% meme

This. I never thought Kratos was a good character but I was thoroughly entertained by how absolutely mad and butthurt he constantly was.

He already did, technically.

grow a wall on your face

Cred Forums's hatred for the new Kratos is a result of daddy issues and insecurity about masculinity. Prove me wrong.

>ITT
>virgins who cant grow a decent beard because of there shit genes

But I have daddy issues and I don't hate new Kratos. It's nice to see dads giving a shit because mine sure didn't.

nah its the result of them being fucking cucks, letting the soys appropriate the ultimate symbol of manliness instead of taking it back

Good one, vro.

They're probably going for the whole "redeemed father" shtick since in GoW 3 he learns to let go of most of his hatred at the end of all things.

If they kept the tatoo the same, part of it would be under the beard, and look weird. Then it was choice to either get rid of the beard or change the tatoo.
You dense motherfucker.

Best video game dad coming through.

>and look weird.
prove it

I dont get it, they are all ugly

This is big razor lobbying talking.

We are doing it for you you fucking retards. The game franchise you loved has become a TLoU clone and instead of voicing your complain, you eat their shit up. As if there aren't enough cinematic third person games on the Playstation, they even turned the only mainstream-accessible hack and slash game into yet another one of those cinematic experiences. THIS is the reason why we hate the new ''kratos''. We hate everything that he represents and we hate you for accepting what sony is doing with the IP.
You see, the SHIT nintendo got for Skyward Sword, the infinite complains and hate they got for that piece of shit of a game, got us BotW. Complaining, or rather having an opinion and being critical (there were you have to) about things you like, can actually bring change and improvement. Again, being ''mad'' and ''angry'' saved us from skyward sword 2, DmC 2 and countless other shit.

Because he's the BLACKEST, he's african-american.

German guy: 1/2 german, 1/2 african
Felon-Turned-Model guy: 1/2 african-american, 1/2 white american
Danish girl: 1/2 danish, 1/2 horner african (basically 3/4 caucasoid, despite her looks, african genes are powerful as fuck)
Brazilian guy: looks like a brazilian pardo, the whitest-looking of the guys imo

Lous Allen III (bottom left): african-american (probably a distant white ancestor given his eye color), the most handsome of the bunch
belgian girl: 3/4 white, 1/4 african IIRC,
canadian girl: 1/2 afro-canadian, 1/2 white canadian
italian girl: 1/2 african, 1/2 italian

First you prove you're not a giant faggot.
Checkmate.

It's closer to what they did to Dante with DmC, not as blatant but when significant changes are made to a character that had remained mostly the same for years, criticism is bound to appear. And maybe you're just projecting

you mad

Nigger I don't even like GoW or TLoU I'm just here for memes.

NUMBERS

NUMBERS

JOHN

nu-male beard lmao

>He used to look badass.
No he didnt

He says numbers 3 times.

>bearded boi who thinks he's worth something
don't you have a switch to bing bing wahoo with

He looks better on the right honestly, from what I understand the game sucks though.
Lots of characters change as their face is made better. Kratos looks cartoonishly silly on the left.

>zeus dindu nuffin
except for the part where he fucked everyone and everything yeah

I'm still confused, didn't Kratos sacrifice himself at the end of GoW III to give the human race free will or some shit.

Kratos was always a huge faggot

How does beard = soy?

WHERE IS MY WHIFE'S SOOOOY....I mean SOOOON?

How can you say you love him if you can't even eat his poop

beards have been appropriated by hipster soyboys

he looked black before except the egyptian nose. Isen't this what you wanted?

He's gray

>appropriated
what are you some kind of beard culture police?

>Appropriated

Beards were always pure soy.

sjws have more fucking balls than you do, they dont cry about people appropriating things they actively try to reclaim them

he looked like a black man (big lips, robust / masculine features, dark skin, shaved hair) with a middle eastern nose

>sjws dont cry about people appropriating things

>they dont cry about people appropriating things

ah so he's like more hard-core version of Spawn. I suppose once you're essentially a demi-god things like race have no baring on you.

>sjws dont cry about people appropriating things

Ok

That doesn't answer my question.

If "" soyboys"" suddenly get an interest in guns that does that mean guns are ""soy""?

Faces change when you age, man. That begs the question, is Kratos supposed to be aging like this as a human who ascended to godhood?

Guns are metal I think

That just means they're growing balls.

Toxic masculinity
ie. masculinity is toxic and unwanted in video games.

Bitch please.
Mustaches are great, an easier to stylish.

Kratos used to kill soyboys, now he became one.

Santa Monica retconned Kratos' race.

...

guns are kinda for pussies anyways. Requires the least strength and skill to use. (I'm talking about as a sporting weapon not self defense)

Why are people pretending like the GoW franchise was ever good?

men get manlier looking as they age. Kratos literally looks like a soy bitch now.

The thing is with DmC is that it completely revamped a lot of things. They changed how Dante and Virgil looked and acted to an extreme way and you could tell that they were trying to go for this really edgy look with demons and angels. The dialogue and storyline of the game was just off and so much so that it sparked many memes and videos. Not to mention the devs themselves said that Devil May Cry was a relic and they are bringing a fresh perspective to the game series. Well look at them now with all their dlc trying to make Donte into Dante.

For me, the new GoW game looks good. Yeah sure Kratos has a beard and his appearance, such as his eyes and tattoos as mentioned by an earlier user, is different and that he is not as angry and shit, but at least it is not drastic changes like DmC.

TLDR: don’t compare the New GoW game to DmC because the later sucked ass and the fact the former hasn’t come out yet.

And beards are made of hair, not soy.

Only real mexicans that stay in their country and don't betray it get to grow a full beard. You despicable floor sweeping, toilet cleaner, mutt traitor.

T. Real mexican

>called out for being a soyboy because you lack any form of masculinity and look like a bitchboi
>people that grow beards, the definition of rugged masculinity, are now getting called soyboys

I'm confused, has this meme gone too far?

which is true

Since this is here, mise well ask.
What is it about mexican that make them like mgs so much? When I played mgo1/2 more than 1/3rd of the players were mexican. I figured it has to be something besides the free online. Considering the shit ton of mgs fan art that comes from below the border. Does it have a really good spanish dub or something?

how if it's not multiplayer?

Their beards look like shit most the time though. That's the issue. They're either unkempt like they can't be bothered with actual grooming, or they go overboard with outlandish styling. Fuck, look at the typical "soyboy" with a beard. They're almost always the out of shape type with weak flabby chins.

I dunno people just grew with them.

I don't think i've ever played a mgs dub, i think there are only subs for the games.

I played them in english with english subs.

the mystery remains

They basically use the same fucking beard and treat them better than the average woman would treat their hair.

He looks fine, but the whole dad, wise man is fucking dumb.

If you people actually bother to style your beard and moustache then you wont look like these filthy hipsters. Unkept beards mighta looked good on pirates but it doesnt look good ob flabby virgins and numales

>actively try to steal them

fix'd that for you. also everyone knows that true outdoor wilderness men where clean shaven not this "i'm a huge soyboi faggot" hipster beards.

>at least it is not drastic changes like DmC
How? How are these not drastic changes for kratos? Going from dude who goes ape shit berserk at any given time to chill guy who tends to lose his temper in battle while also caring for some annoying kid is a massive leap in character development. They went for the type of combat system used in hellblade too, the signs are clear user it's not going to be the best game in the series.

>left Kratos
>right Soytos

All they changed was they got rid of his eyeliner and his scar healed a bit. You will complain about anything.

>we want The last of us audience

While I agree on the reasoning I for one would like to see a little more depth from Kratos. If they just skip that whole character development arc I'd be irate. But if something profound happens to him and they execute it well why would you be opposed to it?

Beards are not a signifier of manliness, they are an amplifier of manliness. The more manly you are, the more manly a beard will make you appear. Likewise, the less manly you are, the less manly a beard will make you appear. Therefore, you could have a full thick beard, but if you act and dress like a cuck, then a beard will make you look non-manly.

>soy = testosterone

No sweetie. If you don’t look like a man without a beard, you don’t look like one with.

But will a beard make me look slightly more manly than if I was clean shaven?

No, see the voice actor for Sora.

You're blind

It'll just make you look like a neckbeard.

Tell me about it. The most I can do is mustache, thinking of going for the classic Kaiser stache but people will just think I'm a hipster fag

>They went for the type of combat system used in hellblade too
gross. that was the fastest i've ever refunded a game that i actually wanted to like.

If you have to ask, then no, it will not.

What if I just shave the neck part?

They made him look more white. Not as badass looking.

His skin is LITERALLY THE COLOR WHITE. THERE IS ZERO HUE OR PIGMENTATION IN THIS MAN'S FUCKING SKIN ASIDE FROM THE RED SHIT ON HIM.

>bald but can grow a thick beard

I'm not gonna make it bros

Karl was just too fuckin poor and lazy to afford one. He would just cry and moan about how he didn't wanna work.

Nah, Marx would hate modern day soyboys.

he's talking about bone structure

Quick example, look how much more pointy and straight his nose is on the right image. also his lips are not as full.

Hey look, I searched up fucking "Nordic" beard, and got something similar as well. Small world, isn't it. I know you're just fishing for (you)'s, and I'm just feeding to you, but I want you to at least try to be better at it.

Kratos was black before he got the ashes.

If you're this upset about a slight reduction in length (not even a different design) of a giant face tattoo], you have problems.

>b-but muh Vikings
The original soys. Glorfied raising another man's son and never conquered anything.

women are more attracted to hairy faces when they're ovulating. So if your measure of manliness is terms of attractiveness to the opposite sex then yes facial hair is objectively manly. Women aren't ovulating most of time though so it's at best situational. (they prefer male faces with more feminine features and fat distribution when they aren't) If you use another metric like "do they imply authority?" yes again. Some physical anthropologists speculate they fill a similar role to the chimpanzee chest hair "badges". Typically the fuller and thicker the higher their order among the males. There's analogous traits in other primates. So one could conjecture shaving may have subconsciously evolved as way of lesser males gaining a mating advantage.

He was made in 2005 and look like a faggot nu-metal singer from Linkin Park.
Soybeard Kratos is better.

Only Muslims trim their mustache

Kratos with a beard vaguely reminds me of John Goodman.

Shows up a picture of yourself, Handsome

That's not a numale beard tho

SOY

Looks nothing like the guy from linkin park

manliness is toxic user, can't have any of that nowadays

Thanks for the detailed reply. My sister says I look really young without the beard but I look my age (27) with the beard. So I think I should keep it.

it's an average beard at best in terms of follicle count.

Never go clean shaven and never go full beard Stubble is the true master race.

Or perhaps they grew up and realized Kratos was just a massive edgy faggot.

This but unironically. Everyone who ever made a beard look good was already good looking without it.

best case scenario if you have a gf stop shaving when she's ovulating and shave when she's not.

This

Funnily enough this might be why so many male allies grow beards. To "subvert" notions of classic masculinity.

sure, and judging by how much of a "cinematic experience" the game is going to be, they really have no reason to cut short on the details

I'm talking about nu-metal look in general.
Old Kratos look like a fan. Maybe that's why he was so edgy, he cut his life into pieces too many times.

Boring TLOU clone Kratos is better. Nu-metal suck that bad.

What's wrong with being rage incarnate? Oh thats right, its toxic masculinity. Gotta show that human side so soygamers can relate to the character and write about it in their review thats 9 paragraphs on the story and two sentences on the gameplay.

The five-o-clock shadow was always peak performance.

Again, try to be a little better, just a little please. You sound like a child, spouting the same thing again and again. Is "soy" the only insult in your vernacular?

I bet $100 imaginary monies the head writer or something had a kid recently and is fucking ecstatic over being a dad now, hence this game's narrative even being a thing. This happens a lot.

Funny meme you've got here

Be a shame if

Something happened to it

That guy looks like a neanderthal lmao.

Cred Forums is too brainlet to differentiate between soyboy and numale.

I-Is this the power of soy?

Because real people don't look like the guy on the left and they were going for a more realistic artstyle.

It was only considered manly be the same faggots who thought Chuck Norris jokes were hilarious despite never even seeing anything with him in it.

...

they are the same thing tho, soyboy is just funnier

They're the same thing you dumbass. Cuck, soyboy, numale. Same shit.
I forgot Chuck Norris jokes were even a thing. Jesus christ.

How long should you grow a beard before trimming?

...

>posing for a photo

yeah defiantly a soyboi here.

>soyboy
>funny
cringe, back to ribbit with you

t.limp dicked whitey

They still can be, if you already look like a faggot then a beard won't man you up though. If you already have handsome features to begin with it can look good.

(not him) I agree
but bugmen and soyboys were not synonymous until reddit regurgitated this meme here. Although overlap does exist they're were both distinct until then.

>Soy
>Funny
Back to whatever discord echo chamber spawned you

Wow, is this ever a classic meme.

>Cuck, soyboy, numale. Same shit.

Why does Cred Forums have 4 buzzwords for the same thing now? There's also that "bugman" thing that people here sometimes use.

/fit/ beard is best combo. If you fail at both, then you fail as a man.

The funny thing is that the only bad looking one is still the amerimutt. The rest are objectively handsome/beautiful.

They're the same thing Cred Forums just can't go a week without making up a new word to call someone they dislike. Bugman is gonna be all the rage soon with how things are looking.

when it becomes itchy and uncomfortable, simple as that

Think about who it is you're arguing with here. Your time would be better spent watching paint dry.

It's evolved over time. Soyboy rolls of the tongue best and it doesnt sound as cringey to say in real life like cuck or numale do.

wow fit, gay, and beard

100% soy.

>Actually saying soyboy in real life
I SERIOUSLY hope you don't do this. Saying any of the neo-Cred Forums buzzwords outdoors is probably even more embarrassing than saying 2003 memes out loud.

>soyboy is just funnier
You and your band of faggots need to leave.

t. lanky beardlet

...

Fuck me I knew what it was before I even clicked on it

And he WON. Meanwhile you faggots jerk over not spilling your powerlevel when chads get away with this left and right. The only reason you're afraid too say soyboy in public is because you are weak and would get beatup by anyone you insulted so you make like a woman and call them names behind their back.

I've been on this website probably longer than you have been on the web.

You actually believe this? It'd be hilarious if you do.

...

Is that seriously being called a numale beard? I have never seen a numale with a beard as full or well kept as that.

Probably because its fucking fiction.

...

...

or maybe we're afraid of being looked at as massive retards
shut the fuck up

>being a retarded faggot in public

Everyone laughs at you when you're not around.

do you have that screen cap of that dude from Cred Forums that called his co-worker a soyboy then his manager made him explain it. Then the guy said "well wouldn't that mean you're the soyboy?" and it's been user's nickname ever since.

yea sure, now back to call of duty

...

They aren't the same thing. Soyboys are guys who are effeminate both in behavior and looks such as a lack of body and facial hair and having little to no muscle. The soy is referring to increased intake of female hormones through the consumption of soy-based products which supposedly lead to these feminine characteristics.
Numale is the portrayal of the typical feminist guy with no self respect. Noted for their similarities in looks in that they are balding, white men with glasses and beards.

>he says soyboy in public

wow.

That's just an episode of seinfeld turned into the soyboy joke. The stories posted here are works of fiction, newfag.

You pretty much just described the same thing with different words.

So you are just saying they are the same thing? wow

I'm glad you're here to tell us these things, professor autism.

>WELL THE SOY STORE CALLED, THEYRE RUNNING OUT OF YOU
>dead silence from anons coworkers
Oh God my sides. Fucking retarded soyposters

>And he WON.

Why are you bringing up the election from 2016 like it's an argument?

it's one of the rare ones I'd believe seemed more sincere than the usual roleplay and I've seen similar things happen at work.

He's old. The fuck do you want? Also goatees have never been badass.

>and having little to no muscle
I'M NOT A SOYBOY, OK? I'M JUST LAZY.

In spite of the absurd amount of shitposting that was on 2012 Cred Forums, I kind of miss 2012 now.

You can still change, user. I believe in you.

>Numale is the portrayal of the typical feminist guy with no self respect. Noted for their similarities in looks in that they are balding, white men with glasses and beards.

This is what I thought was bugmen not numales. As in they're like bugs indistinct from one another just drones for the female overlords.

I see lazors are making a comeback.

>you don't have enough autism to type a post like this out
a good feeling, is it not

I don't know the current use of bugmen, but bugmen used to refer to HIV/AIDS positive men who actively try to infect other people with the disease.

>He used to look badass
>goatee beard
Only if you are 16 years old and it's the 90's.

gave him the soyboy beard

If you look at kratos’ change from a narrative perspective, you can see how he changed from an angry dude with daddy issues to a more relaxed dad who has trouble connecting with his kid. I think this sort of character developement change is good opposed to trying to totally revamp the game from the narrative beginning.

...

That's a soul patch, dumbo.

Come on guys...

>god of soy

really makes u think

these are just reddit beards to me. if you're trying to look like a viking, you're a total fag. if you think a bear makes a good accessory to your quirkiness, you, too, are a fag.

...

to elaborate I thought numales were contrarians that always have to be in the counter culture and are militant about their false sense of individualism through consumer media (Cred Forums in a nutshell)

I always hear bugmen as a derogatory for asian people, Chinese and Japanese.

I feel like this game is perfectly capable of being shit on its own without needing to meme it.

>Cred Forums, Cred Forums and most other boards in a nutshell
ftfy

Although Cred Forums is a bunch of faggots, that has never really been associated with numales. Even when the name kicked off it was always seen as "men" like anthony burch.

snowflakes then?

That sounds more like a description of hipsters to me.

>Even when the name kicked off it was always seen as "men" like anthony burch.

This. Numales are the uber-feminists who pull shit like "A REAL man lets his wife sleep with as many guys as she wants!". Which is part of why stuff like the cuck meme came into prominence, among other factors.

In a sense, but not the way snowflakes is used today either.

>having a sympathetic dad redemption arc for an irredeemable man
Literally every character who got major screentime in GoW was a horrible person. There's doing bad things & having a rough past, then there's killing hundreds of people. Hell the end of GoW3 is Kratos "letting go" by releasing all those trapped souls & destroying everything around him, pretty much genocide. He should've died there, you can't make this man sympathetic after that, maybe if they did this after 1, but not now

>He uses a trip code on Cred Forums
Wow

>there

Tye beard cant hide your estro visage.

see

At least that's only on Cred Forums.

>A bear makes a good accessory
kek

Tripfags are worse than soyboys user. They toss aside their anonominity and start spouting more bullshit because they think they will be heard better. Most of them are from Reddit no doubt

...

Your issues with Cred Forumss issues are insecurities and daddy issues.

Prove me wrong

Only women and faggots have daddy issues.

I'd rather deal with a tripfag on Cred Forums than some autist talking about soyboys in public.

>This is back after like 10 years
Well damn

It reminds me of Prototype 2, the new MC was a sympathetic dad type but he still regularly ate people to heal himself & just mauled the shit out of everything in general. It's jarring as hell, even if Blackwatch & the military are bad guys, cannibalizing them, mutilating them, & using them as living weapons is insane & extremely horrific. Mercer being morally gray but leaning towards black was better

Stop making these retardet definitions you bug man.

These terms all refer to the same phenomenon.

>f you think a bear makes a good accessory to your quirkiness, you, too, are a fag
I agree. Bears are gentle creatures who should be left alone to their own whims.

He already died twice.

>chinlets thingk that beards are manly

I wouldn't have to if people here weren't dumb to the point where they associate increased intake of female hormones with beards.

>tfw have beard because I don't like my square low-poly chin

It's ok, not everybody can grow a beard.
Besides the true patrician combo is a good jaw + short full beard.

...

Nice

Holy shit user

Japs don't think muscles are gay. They think gym culture and bodybuilding obsession is gay. And they are fucking right.
Manliness isn't about taking care of your body

>They think gym culture and bodybuilding obsession is gay

Glad somebody else realizes this.

>ITT people can't differentiate soybeards from real beards

It's pretty simple really. Soy-infused numale beards are beards grown solely for the purpose of hiding as much of the soy's face as possible to hide their weak genetics

pictures all are nigger offspring aka mullaten

Idk man I have seen some ugly faggots grow a beard and become at least a little bit more attractive. If anything it hides a weak chin/jaw which can be devastating to a mans sex appeal.

so you guys have a microplay close to you?
>in case you didn't figure it out it's an extra for pre ordering gow

la creatura...

I love you

I WAS STRONG BACK THEN

Don't wish for a beard it's too much work and most girls love the look but hate getting hair in their mouths or hate how rough it really is hell if you're rich and have free times I can imagine just grooming my beard for about 15 mins each day to get rid of the loose follicles and conditioning it but that'd feel really gay

I got a question too
Why do mexicans love Gohan so much?

He looks like Clint Eastwood now.

Not even close.

Funny thing is, olde-Cred Forums would think nu-Kratos still looks badass. Nu-Cred Forums just keeps making wife's son jokes because he shares one fucking trait with numales, a beard.

Kratos character also fits perfectly.

I tried being reasonable, I didn't like it.

Will memes continue spiraling downward or will they ever get better again to simpler times?

Every thread now is just full of people saying soy

Unless the mods start doing their goddamn job and banning ALL the shitmemers like wojak/goldface spammers, it's only gonna get worse.

With the omnipresent nature of the internet, memes will never be simple fun again.

as much as i hate the soy comments
i gotta admit the wife's son was just too good

I think it's supposed to be because he's not as pissed off as he was before. He's just sort of sad and tired, really. He's an old man, and he just wants to hang out with his kid and go hunting occasionally until he can be with his wife when he dies.

christ fuck this thread devolved into autism quickly

waiting for the great meme crash of 2018/2019
now memes last shorter and shorter every month, and even fuking tv adds try to sell you shit using memes, even the fuking emoji movie exists ffs

Emoji movie didn't have memes. It had emojis.

cmon' user
emojis have gone full circle into meme territory and then the memes into emojis
shit is fuked

user I was just discussing some god of war but they wouldn't stop saying soy

>you can't do something because other people do it
How's life as a contrarian?

Having a beard takes more than just letting pubes grow on your face.
You have to put effort for it to look good on you and you to look good in it.
But if you're a faggot, you'd always look like a faggot beard or not.

They kept the meme ones out of the spotlight. 100, fire, cryinglaughing.

>hollywood garbage
beards are for old codgers who fucks bois while writing "philosophy", soldiers are preferably shaved, the body over.

Are beardlets still upset they dont have enough testosterone to grow a beard?

Just be handsome and you will look good, beard, mustache or shaved.

Just look at Brad Pitt he has used it all.

>The soy is referring to increased intake of female hormones through the consumption of soy-based products which supposedly lead to these feminine characteristics
But they literally don't in humans

Poor fucker would look like a dried mop with all that chinks and niggers he has to raise

>have a beard
>one day suddenly realize i literally look like a soyboy, only thing is missing are pair of hipster glasses
>shave it down, feel great after

Did he crack open that bear to make him an accessory? Is he about to play some TF2?

Marketing and branding but they also hired anew artist.

>Beards were always pure soy
I'm dropping mustard gas on your home right now you fucking nigger

i dont know, do you still thinking posting le epic laughing reddit man.gif is funny?

>trimming your beard
>not just letting it naturally grow until it's 5 meters long
I smell soy

When start finding bits of cereal you ate 3 days ago.

>Changing your appearance because of Cred Forums memes
Image.

Are you willing to make yourself to look like a faggot deliberately?

I've always seen beards as effeminate preening, glad society has caught up with my advanced world views.

Imagine*

MUST SCOWL HARDER

>lipstick and eyeliner
>badass
pick 1, it's not the 80's anymore (he still looks shit in the new game btw, just a different kind of shit)

I'd rather look the way I like to look

I see so you can't grow a beard huh

So a COMPLETE FUCKING FAGGOT then.

>wow eating shit is retarded

>hurr so you can't eat shit lmao we get it

evanposting will never not be funny

Why you fags always bring this "argument"?
That we don't want a beard doesn't mean we can't grow one.

>old kratos
El abominacion...
>New kratos
le 100% face

how do I get the space in the middle of my mustache right below the nose to connect?
will that just come with age or is it something that has to be styled in?

That murica guy in the bottom left is handsome as fuck also that Canadian chick.....

>white manbun beard lumberjack
Kek

>repeating a word as it's scaled up
>"HAHA LOOK AT THE WORD! DID YOU SEE IT?! DID YOU!? DO I HAVE TO HAMMER IT INTO YOUR FUCKING HEAD FOR YOU TO SEE IT, YOU DENSE FUCK!? I'M POINTING IT OUT SO IT'S FUNNIER"
Fuck this bullshit-ass trend

Just looks like the same guy, with less makeup on.
He repainted his red stripe a little different too.
OP, you're being a pussy.
He used to look like an edge lord, not a "badass" - like the crow or something.

>Cred Forums memes
Try going outside for once, it's a little bit beyond Cred Forums.

this image cracks me up every time

Well, that guy looks like a faggot.
A dude who has a beard cos he is some sailor or a fucking lumberjack is a different story than some cocksucker that reads buzz feed, vice and metro for his "lumberjack chic" fashion tips.
It's not the beard, but the man or lack thereof that grew it.

>game is basically TLOU: melee edition with 20 lbs of walk-and-talk
>this isn't the main concern
>it's memes
the bar is set lower each and every day
lets keep going and see where this leads

you just got baited scrubs

Cred Forums is a dumb board

It's true. I have a beard and every time I go outside, people surround me and shout "Why don't you go eat some soy, soyboy? You have a beard which proves that you eat a lot of soy and also I imagine that you enjoy playing Nintendo products!" I know doesn't look that catchy when you read it, but in real life it rolls right off the tongue and is very hurtful.

>C-Close your goddamn mouth you soyboys, IM IN CONTROL HERE

I have a good dad and am currently working on bettering my physique. I just like family oriented story games. I don't like the gameplay on this one though.

he doesn't have to die to be replaced as the playable character.

from MAD LAD to SOYBOY

shaved faces on men didn't even become popular until the 40s when the disposable razor was invented
up until then it was an ordeal to shave

Maybe you should shave your beard then

>soldiers are preferably shaved, the body over
Especially their tight, firm buttocks and their supple boipussies

you sure that's a spartan urn?

I just stopped going outside instead.

>Zeus did NOTHING WRONG
Except setting a chain of events that led to his demise, I dunno, something that fucking happened when his dad thought that gobbling up his brothers was a good idea to avoid being usurped.
Also something something not removing his nightmares something something not letting Kratos off himself despite the warnings about the marked warrior.

Yes

but those aren't even the same urns. i don't understand your point. the first urn you linked is athenian. the second one is not spartan or athenian. the first one you posted showed achilles and ajax playing a board game

...

No, they just look older. Kratos was already in his prime, his body’s broken from all the shit he put himself through

Is it pronounced "KRAH-tows" or "KRAY-tows"?

he has the soy beard now...

kratos is a demigod who doesn't get older physically, so he wouldn't grow weak, grow a beard, etc. It's almost like the devs haven't played previous god of war games, where kratos is an immortal god-killer and not a soyboy raising someone else's child. That white powder on his face is Kratos' dead family, including his biological child, so he would NEVER be raising some other little brat.

the former for smart people and the latter for retarded english speaking brainlets

My point is that Greek soldiers had beards. They might be Athenian pottery but they depict Spartans (Menelaus of course who began the Trojan War was Spartan). Usually beardless soldiers were associated with young soldiers too young to grow their beards out (Plato says that in Symposium). There also isn't a ton of Spartan art, but even this one I found shows a hero with a beard like:
google.com/culturalinstitute/beta/u/0/asset/wine-cup-with-bellerophon-fighting-the-chimaera/mwFRoiKiLWjUvA

google.com/culturalinstitute/beta/u/0/asset/leonidas/hwFdmnKqrsk3nA

Leonidas with beard

Kratos comes from kρατάω (kratAHo), which means “to hold” or “to hold power”.Take aristocrasy, for example. Aristo=Perfect/Most appropriate/Upper Class and crasy=holding (power).

So the proper greek way is KrAHtos but krAYtos is fine, too.

t. pay debts

Oops that's a modern recreation

They want the nu-male cuckold audience, I guess

okay, thank you. i wasn't sure how the urns were relevant but i was pretty sure they had beards back then. but 300 is still historically inaccurate (not that it was trying to be, still) because apparently they shaved their upper lips

This is the first time I've been upset about a character changing races

Huh It's almost like Cred Forums posters are insecure about their masculinity of something

>300 is still historically inaccurate (not that it was trying to be, still)
Oh yeah totally no one's arguing that. And yeah the upper lip thing is true too. I think it was the Dacians that grew mustaches which disgusted the Greeks because they found them so uncivilized which caused the Greeks to shave their own mustaches. but yeah, have a cool day user

Holy shit this is great. I have a friend that wears a beanie while at work liek a retard even thou we are sittiing in a warm office.

I want to wear this shit to show him how retarded he looks from the sidelines.

It's almost like Soyboy is Cuck which is Numale which is Balding Bearded Bespectacled which is Beta

This horse has been beaten for over half a decade at this point, and the margin for creativity with the joke just gets thinner and thinner with each iteration

godspeed user

why don't you just tell him instead of unnecessarily making yourself look like an ass at work? if he's your friend, wouldn't it be better to be honest with him rather than mock him?

...

why are people on Cred Forums so horribly pissed off by the soy meme?

Get your weak reddit shit out of my face

i was not self-aware that i look gay as fuck until i was introduced to soyboy meme

>A God of War thread nearly has 500 posts

You faggots have nostalgia for this shit now?

This.

400 of those posts are about soy desu

>He didn't take a 3 second glance at the thread and see this clearly isn't the case
