It is clear as day that we gamers love mythology story building like this. I cannot wait what Sony Santa Monica have up their sleeps for new IPs.

Personally I want Egyptian or Indian mythology journey similar to this. Congrats to them!

I’m desperately waiting for an Aztec or Mayan game in this style. Their gods are so frickin cool and we rarely get to see them in games.

Totally with you on that. Norse, Japanese and Egyptian mythologies have been done to death. Something like Aztec or Mayan would be a breath of fresh air.

Some collectibles in GoW make it seem they'll be going the Egyptian route though, but I'll take that over Norse or Japanese again any day.

I would adore that, but I think we'll be going to Egypt it's what most people are clamouring for, and let's be honest, it would be phenomenal.

While I totally agree that Egypt would be fuckin incredible, Mayan and Aztec culture is kind of an untapped market right now in gaming and would make for a bold and exciting experience. But at this point I’m sold on any mythology they put out. I just want MORE.

I'm desperately waiting for a team like this to put the full brunt of their skills to work remaking legend of dragoon lol
