Kratos calls for ceasefire in console wars

Voice actor Christopher Judge, the man behind Kratos in the modern God of War (opens in new tab) and God of War Ragnarok, took a moment after winning the BAFTA for Performer in a Leading Role to ask you all to please be more polite to each other: “Thank you to the fans. Be easier on each other. You have more in common that 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.”

It’s a clear ceasefire on the absurd rivalries request from someone adjacent to the dedicated gaming community. And it’s frankly quite embarrassing, to me, that a high-level observer like Judge sees enough of you being rude, snide, and petty to each other so often that he felt the need to ask you to please stop doing it on one of the industry’s biggest stages.
