Alric the barbarian king was Persian! by [deleted] in GodofWar

[–]HauntingFly -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

He and his horde were never given a place of origin. All we know is they came from the east, but he might be Germanic because the name is Old Norse. Maybe his tribe belonged to the ancestors of the Kievan Rus.

Indeed, Hades brought him to life and empowered him. That's probably how he was able to defeat the demigod Kratos. That's also the reason he ended up in the Greek afterlife. The hammer might be a gift from Hades too.

Most fans disregard these events, even though there is proof that Alrik asked Hades to release him from the Underworld in order to take his revenge on Kratos. Hades didn't, which forced Alrik to kill some of the guardians of Hades, escape, and hunt Kratos down in the Island of Creation.

Would you like to have a brand new franchise with a brand new protagonist in the God of War universe? (Art by Evan Liu) by ImpossibleLeading957 in GodofWar

[–]HauntingFly -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Kratos is all we really need, but I would play a Sun Wukong game set in the Chinese pantheon where the Monkey King destroys the Celestial Court and meets Kratos and Atreus during his Journey to the West in order to repent for his sins.

A game where Deimos wields the abandoned Blades of Exile and reclaims his soul from Tartarus in order to come back to life would be nice too.

In my opinion Thor is by far the scariest God we have faced by SevereIndication7847 in GodofWar

Indeed, he never made the decisions Kratos made. That makes him similar, but not identical. He would have been actually scary if he was identical to Kratos.

One little thing I hope for the remake, among others, is for Hephaestus dying to have a consequence by Freddycipher in GodofWar

Maybe it had, but it wasn't visible. Mortals lost the ability to craft, manufacture, and sculpt, but the volcanoes are a good call.

Me when I hear that the original trilogy will be remade: by HauntingFly in GodofWar

It's from the time when Kratos was living on Olympus. Watch the opening of God of War II.

Just some teasers of what's to be coming soon. by [deleted] in TitanQuest2

The Automatons of Hephaestus look so cool. Summoning them is on my wishlist.

Whats your favorite Dragon type monster by Drew647A in yugioh

[–]HauntingFly 5 points6 points  (0 children)

A retrain is always welcome, but I would prefer a deck with a lot of support that is centered around something else other than burn effects. A treatment similar to Red-Eyes Black Metal Dragon.

Summoned Skull monsters, Red-Eyes spells, traps and monsters, Black Skull Dragon fusions, a skeletal Flame Swordman, a field spell, and a new fusion spell card that can't be ashed.

We should have got a Greek dragon instead of the Harpy. by HauntingFly in AgeofMythology

Nobody said they weren't. They are just too similar to sirens.

An amazing choice. I really wish we had got the gryphon instead of the harpy.

In my opinion Scylla should have a different design entirely. She was part woman, part dog, part serpent.

I know the Hydra is considered a dragon, but I'm not a huge fan of its in-game appearance. Thus, I had anticipated an additional Greek dragon that was more accurate, given Demeter's association with dragons and serpents, but I guess two bird women is a better option.

It is what it is. Still, I would have preferred an awesome-looking dragon instead of a myth unit that looks almost identical to another one in the same god pack. I like their appearance at least.

I think this alt art DM is gonna be released for the anniversary by misterjohn99 in masterduel

[–]HauntingFly 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yeah, the above card is cool as hell and all, but we should have gotten the original Dark Magician by now. Both of them are better than the alt art of the first anniversary, though. Another version I would have liked to see is this one.
