The Dark Odyssey Collection is a solid nod to the franchise's legacy, blending nostalgia with modern customization—perfect for fans who want to flex Kratos' drip without sacrificing stats. Still, it’s hard not to dream about revisiting the Greek saga with a fresh coat of paint, but hey, this update keeps the hype alive for now

It's awesome to see God of War Ragnarök getting some love with this update, especially with the Edit Appearance feature—finally, we can look cool *and* stay functional. That said, I can’t help but wonder if this is a subtle tease for something bigger down the line, like those remasters fans are craving.
