Talk:God of War III

Requested for description + trope check and additions from other players of the game, I spent hours on this and my brain's fried.

I know I was not invited but I will put my finger in anyway: I think anything up until Hermes should be un-spoiled. Anything happens until half of a work is not a spoiler on my view. Hermes is the fourth of the game's eight proper bosses.

We are not supposed to hide everything slightly twisty, and I'm not a big fan of un-spoiling everything either. I just want a middle-ground.

Hey, you don't have to be "invited" - if you know stuff about the game then contribute away.

Also, the series page had pretty inconsistent spoiler placement, so I was trying to just make the best of that from what I remembered of the game (I last played between high school and college) - actually planned on discussing that down the line.

Not a player of the game, sorry.

Tagging @GentlemensDame883 since I like their edits and they've also been p. active.

It's been a long time since I last touched the game, I'm afraid, and I have no opinion on what to mark as a spoiler and what not to, but I could take a look, I guess.

Every little bit helps.

As mentioned in this topic by another editor, the spoiler tagging for the series as a whole was quite inconsistent prior to the fork, which made for difficulties when splitting off this page into its own article. I did what good I could with it (insofar as anyone could at 3am), but I'm gonna need some help with this - what's the best point in the game to start marking off spoilers?

Tagging @HornyLikeIAmA14YearOldGirl (who brought it up) and suggested Hermes as a starting point - inviting commentary from anyone else with input.

As a starter, would Kratos being Zeus's bastard son be considered a Late Arrival Spoiler?

Trailers and information about 3 I found are surprisingly silent about this, so no, but I don't think it's a spoiler when Kratos reminds us of this two times in the first thirty minutes, the first time being his very first sentence on-screen. It's not a Late Arrival Spoiler, but it's not a spoiler at all.

It's a spoiler if you hadn't played the previous games, which I hadn't at that point (not that it impacted my experience, but not the point anyway) - was my entire point in asking.

The trope definition mentions explictly official material, not common knowledge which is a pretty subjective thing.
