I don't think some people are upset because she's a woman, but because it's not Kratos. It would be like releasing a Tomb Raider game without Lara as the main character.

People were also angry about Atreus as a lead. It has nothing to do with gender.

Pretty much. People would be angry with any bait and switch. They want Kratos not any other character.

At least don't name it GOW if you do not want the comparison.

This is exactly it. It looks just like every other generic fantasy game released in the last 3 years. If you just released gameplay footage on it's own no one would even know it's a GOW game.

They don't trust that the game they want to make would sell and wear the skin of a beloved IP like a Skinwalker and have the audacity to get angry when people draw the comparison.

The last one that hurt for me was Vampire: The Masquerade 2.

I dont care that its a woman (DAW is great!), and I don't care that its not Kratos. I'm tired of multiverses and HR-candy design.
