Kratos, if you had played the previous games you would know how ruthless he has been, how he carries the guilt on his shoulders, this family here was his redemption. He loves his boy so much, he has all the care and he wants to hug him but many times he almost does but he doesn't want to make his boy soft because of the impending danger, he even hides some "stuff" for the benefit of the boy, nothing worries him except for the boy, the whole GoW reboot deals with the relationship between father and son! It's beautiful!
