God of War Ragnarök’s Kratos actor calls for an end to console wars | VGC

“Give each other a break”…

www.videogameschronicle.com

The actor, who was giving a speech after accepting the award for Performer in a Leading Role at the BAFTA Games Awards 2023, took a moment to acknowledge fans of the series, before asking them to behave more peacefully.

“Thank you to the fans,” he said. “Be easier on each other. You all have more in common than what separates you.

“No matter what platform you love, no matter what game you love, you’re still part of the gaming community, and give each other a break.”

 

[Three]

The god of war against war

 

[farmerboy]

Tell him he's fucking dreaming.

 

[Dick Jones]

I'm calling April Fools on the article. That speech was way too short.

 

[N1tr0sOx1d3]

OK then I’m done….

 

[Yoboman]

Poor bastard has been caught in the fanboy algorithm. My heart goes out to him

 

[Big Baller]

 

[Varteras]

 

[TommyCronin6969]

How about he appears in some multiplat games before saying such things, lead by example.

 

[Banjo64]

This is the best April fools yet.

 

[dreamstation]

How about he appears in some multiplat games before saying such things, lead by example.

 

[Yoboman]

How about he appears in some multiplat games before saying such things, lead by example.

He's in God of War

 

[Kenpachii]

Can't wait for his 3 part speech in the cinema's.

 

[Topher]

How about he appears in some multiplat games before saying such things, lead by example.

 

[Captain Toad]

He's in God of War

You know what he means.

 

[V1LÆM]

Good luck with that mate.

Neogaf would be closed within 24 hours of such a war ending.

He's right though. It's absolutely pathetic that people argue over which plastic box is better and have a favourite multi-billion/trillion dollar company that they defend on the internet.

 

[Warnen]

Not gonna fool me I know what day it is today

 

[PendekarRajawali]

There always will be poor people who can’t afford the three consoles. Jealous people spark the console war.

 

[Rush2112]

Ironic coming from a man who got his fame from being in a console exclusive game.

 

[Yoboman]

You know what he means.

No I don't

 

[Topher]

Ironic coming from a man who got his fame from a console exclusive.

lol...what? He didn't get his fame from gaming at all.

 

[V1LÆM]

No I don't

[Yoboman]

Pretty sure he was an actor well before becoming Kratos

 

[Sorcerer]

Be easier on each other. You all have more in common than what separates you.

Were all nerds?

 

[V1LÆM]

Pretty sure he was an actor well before becoming Kratos

Yeah no shit. So what has God of War got to do with it then?

 

[Yoboman]

Yeah no shit. So what has God of War got to do with it then?

You seem pretty cranky like bro. Is it nap time?

 

[Topher]

How about he appears in some multiplat games before saying such things, lead by example.

[Guilty_AI]

A most foolish endeavor

 

[LiquidMetal14]

She's right

 

[mansoor1980]

 

[Gaiff]

 

[Gaiff]

And his best role in Def Jam Vendetta

He's equally as good in Fight for NY. Damn these games were fun. Especially in multiplayer.

The trash that was Icon could never live up to that legacy.

Thank you for listing even more platform exclusive games he's appeared in.

 

[The Infectious Paradox]

Legend has it that he never stopped talking on The Game Awards stage..

 

[diffusionx]

Did he ramble for 10 minutes in this speech too

 

[Topher]

Thank you for listing even more platform exclusive games he's appeared in.

None of those games are exclusive to any one platform.

 

[Captain Toad]

No I don't

Yes, you do. You just want to let everyone know there is a PC port of GoW 2018 that eventually came to Steam.

We are clearly talking about console exclusives in this thread.

 

[SlimySnake]

First he apologizes to Loki after Loki nearly gets everyone killed and now this. This guy is a simp.

P.s console wars are perpetuated by console makers. Most of the time behind the scenes but thanks to the Activision merger we are finally seeing their true colors. He needs to talk to his bosses about this.

 

[Heisenberg007]

 

[Reizo Ryuu]

 

[Yoboman]

Yes, you do. You just want to let everyone know there is a PC port of GoW 2018 that eventually came to Steam.

We are clearly talking about console exclusives in this thread.

You can also remote play to mobile or play on Steam deck.

.


exrcutive says something + influencers add to the fire + low level/IQ trolls fanboys repeat those talking points = 'console warz' is just an extension of PR/Marketing and narrative


and clearly is a businees model that works. how many fantrolls have an audience because of this "war".

its not easy like that, because some of the biggest fanboys and console warriors are fully grown adults some have fully grown kids and some work in the industry, to civilize such bafoons is cosmically impossible only way is baptism by fire.. so let the warring continue

 

[bluecowboys]

Console wars are fun. Nothing bad about it as long as you don’t do weirdo shit.

 

[Topher]

as long as you don’t do weirdo shit.

You leave Ass of Can Whooping alone

 

[JokerMM]

I'll always make fun of Nintendo consoles

 

[Klosshufvud]

Console wars these days are tame as fuck regardless. The true madness was beginning of 7th gen. Then it sort of just died down.

 

[Ass of Can Whooping]

You leave Ass of Can Whooping alone

sticks and stones may break my bones but your words make me want to pull the trigger
